Best GoPro Camera (2026): Compact, Budget, Accessories

The Top 5 GoPro Hero Cameras Compared GoPros to Avoid GoPro doesn’t sell anything older than the Hero 12, but there are plenty of Hero 11s and even Hero 10s out there for sale on the internet. We suggest avoiding them. They may work fine, but modern accessories designed for later models won’t work, and these cameras have likely been through the wringer. (They are action cameras, after all.) GoPro Hero 11 Black GoPro no longer sells the Hero 11, but it’s still commonly available on Amazon and other retailers. Unfortunately, it’s usually the same price as the Hero 12 (around $300) and therefore not worth buying. The Best GoPro Accessories Photograph: Scott Gilbertson Should you buy a bundle? Generally, I say no. Get the camera, figure it out, and see how you end up using it. When you find yourself trying to solve a problem, start looking for an accessory. Here are some of my favorite things that I’ve tested and used, but if you have favorites you think I should try, drop a …

We first spotted Segway’s MUXI in January 2026 at CES in Las Vegas, and this softer-edged, city-friendly utility ebike is now available to order. The more compact counterpart to a cargo bike, the MUXI is low, approachable, a little Vespa-ish, and easy to live (and go to work) with. There are no top-tube gymnastics to perform, no haul sprawl to wrestle, but still enough available space to pick up odds and ends or a friend. Apartment dwellers will still want to take the 78-pound bike up the elevator, but riding it will elevate your mood in return. See It The MUXI is a tidy electric bike that translates stout hardware into a steady ride when navigating stop signs and side streets. The low standover frame and upright geometry promise an easy on-off rhythm, which makes a lot of sense in dense urban environments, especially for …

Virginia ups the National Popular Vote Compact to 222 votes : NPR

A person marks their ballot at a polling place in Falls Church, Va., during early voting for the 2024 election. Stephanie Scarbrough/AP hide caption toggle caption Stephanie Scarbrough/AP A national effort to circumvent the Electoral College has gained another state. Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger signed a bill Monday that adds the state to the National Popular Vote Compact, an agreement among states to award their presidential electoral votes to the nationwide popular vote winner. With Virginia, the total number of states signed on to the interstate compact is now 18, plus the District of Columbia, for a total of 222 electoral votes. The compact doesn’t go into effect, though, until there are enough states signed up to reach the required 270 electoral votes to elect a president. “This [effort] started 20 years ago and it’s been slow and steady … constant forward momentum across these 20 years,” said Alyssa Cass, a strategist for the National Popular Vote Project and a Democratic consultant. “Bills have been introduced in almost every state, most passed in a bipartisan …

The compact yet versatile Spanish neutron facility

The compact yet versatile Spanish neutron facility

In a world of ever larger international facilities, a medium-sized neutron facility can have an impact on many research fields and applications. Neutrons are nowadays involved in many industrial applications and fields of research. They are indeed very particular; their lack of charge makes them very penetrating radiation for which the electron cloud of the atoms is transparent, thus interacting only with the nucleus. Naturally unstable, they are created by, and also drive, nuclear reactions. Neutrons appear as a result of both fission and fusion reactions, being thus essential in the electricity production in current and future nuclear reactors. This is indeed a trending topic, given the recent advances in Small Modular Reactors (SMR) and the excellent prospects for fusion, with a series of recent records broken in plasma confinement. Besides energy production, the list of research fields and applications requiring neutrons is very extensive and varied. Their absorption by nuclei inside the stars gives birth to the elements of our Universe heavier than iron, and when they induce fission in nuclear reactors they produce …

This Compact Bose Soundbar Is  Off

This Compact Bose Soundbar Is $80 Off

If you’re looking for an upgrade to your home audio, but you don’t have a lot of room to spare, the Bose Smart Soundbar is an excellent option. Normally $499, it’s currently marked down to just $419 on Amazon. With full Dolby Atmos spatial audio, a unique musical profile, and all the features you’d expect from a modern soundbar in a small package, there’s a reason it’s our favorite compact soundbar. The biggest selling point here is the design. The Bose Smart Soundbar has an impressively small footprint, perfect for apartment-sized entertainment centers and cramped living rooms. It’s just 2.2 inches tall, making it easy to slide under basically any screen, and its 27-inch width even makes it a viable option for smaller panels. There are a surprising number of speakers inside, including a pair of proper up-firing drivers, so you get real spatial audio and full Dolby Atmos support, something fairly uncommon for soundbars. Despite the size, the Bose Smart Soundbar has a great audio profile and feature set that’s just as good as …

Audi to launch new electric A2 e-tron: ‘Efficient, compact, and confident’

Get our weekly Drive Smart newsletter for motoring news, reviews and advice from EV editor Steve Fowler Get motoring news, reviews and advice from EV editor Steve Fowler Get our EV editor’s weekly Drive Smart newsletter Audi has confirmed the revival of its A2 nameplate, set to return as an all-electric model dubbed the A2 e-tron. The original A2, first introduced in 2000, was a pioneering city car lauded for its futuristic design, exceptional interior space, and impressive efficiency. Its innovative construction featured an almost entirely aluminium bodyshell and key panels, which significantly reduced weight and contributed to a remarkably low drag coefficient, optimising fuel consumption. The forthcoming A2 e-tron is expected to emulate these “groundbreaking methods,” promising a modern interpretation of its predecessor’s core values. Audi has confirmed the new electric vehicle will be fully unveiled later this year. Though details on the new model are scarce, Audi has said that the new car will be focused on people who value ‘everyday usability in the city’, suggesting that the upcoming model will be focused …

Federal judge dismisses Morongo tribe lawsuit challenging California gaming compact provisions

Federal judge dismisses Morongo tribe lawsuit challenging California gaming compact provisions

A federal judge has thrown out, at least for now, a lawsuit filed by the Morongo Band of Mission Indians that challenged several provisions in its gaming agreement with California. In a March 4 order, U.S. District Judge Sunshine S. Sykes ruled the tribe had not shown a real and active legal dispute with the state or Gov. Gavin Newsom. Without that kind of immediate conflict, the court said, the case cannot move forward. The ruling dismisses the lawsuit but gives the tribe the opportunity to amend its complaint and try again. Morongo first filed the case in May 2025, targeting multiple provisions in a tribal-state gaming compact that took effect in January 2018. The tribe argued that several parts of the agreement violate the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act, or IGRA, because they regulate issues that do not directly relate to the operation of Class III gaming. That category includes slot machines and casino-style table games offered at tribal casinos. Morongo’s complaint laid out 17 separate claims, each focused on a specific provision in the …

Fast, compact e-motos are getting even more affordable with Yozma IN10 Pro+ launch

Fast, compact e-motos are getting even more affordable with Yozma IN10 Pro+ launch

If you’ve been watching the light electric two-wheeler space over the last few years, you’ve probably noticed one category growing faster than just about anything else: compact electric “e-motos.” These trail-optimized machines have carved out a niche somewhere far above off-road electric bicycles yet still below full-size dirt bikes, offering serious performance in a smaller, more approachable package. Now, a new entrant is looking to push that category even further downmarket. The Yozma IN10 Pro+ has officially launched, bringing big power numbers and full-suspension capability to what’s quickly becoming one of the hottest segments in electric powersports. And it seems to do so for a song, launching with a promotional price of just US $1,899. At the heart of the IN10 Pro+ is a 5,500W mid-drive motor that claims a stout 220 Nm of torque. That’s well into light dirt bike territory for a machine this size, and it’s paired with a top speed rated at up to 50 mph (80 km/h). Power comes from a 60V and 27Ah (1.62 kWh) battery, with Yozma quoting …
