Plus Samsung has a new range of TVs to show off, and Qi wireless charging is getting an upgrade.
Yesterday's trickle of CES announcements has turned into a flood today. The best place to keep up with them is over on our dedicated CES 2023 page, but I wanted to use today's roundup to highlight a couple that piqued my interest.
First up is this delightfully wacky gadget from Withings. It's called the U-Scan, and it's a small puck that you mount in your toilet to take urine samples as you pee throughout the day. It's meant as a simple way to keep track of your reproductive health and nutrition, without the invasiveness of blood testing, and despite sounding a little gross, I'm really intrigued by this kind of ambient health monitoring.
Finally, Qi wireless charging is getting an upgrade this year thanks to Apple, which is allowing MagSafe to provide the basis of the new Qi2 standard. It means the company's ring of magnets might not be exclusive to iPhones for much longer. Check out Sean's writeup for all the details.
