Motorola has introduced a surprise smartphone tailored for budget-conscious shoppers. The Moto E14 is debuting in the U.K. and Europe; we don’t expect to see a U.S. launch. The Moto E14 is a simple device priced at 70 British pounds (about $88). It features a Unisoc chipset, the same one found on its predecessor, the Moto E13. The Moto E14 has 2GB of RAM and is limited to Android 14 Go Edition, a lightweight version of Android.

Smart displays are super useful for providing information at a glance, especially in situations where you can't pull out your phone to get information. They also work great as home hubs, giving you a one-stop shop for viewing your family calendar, checking home security camera feeds or controlling smart home devices. If a big smart display makes sense in your home, the Amazon Echo Show 15 is the one to get, with its massive screen and jam-packed feature set. Big screens often come with big prices, but you can save a huge $130 if you go for a refurbished model via Woot today. This deal drops the cost down to just $150, but it won't be that way for long -- you only have a matter of hours left. It's important to note that these devices have been tested and verified by Amazon, so you're getting them refurbished directly from the manufacturer.

A few weeks ago, when the temperature was still sitting around 70℉, a tower fan started to pop up on my For You page. It’s come up dozens of times ever since, and in every video, the creators swear up and down that Dreo’s Nomad One Tower Fan is a total game-changer. One says they’ve been even getting “hotel sleep” ever since placing it in their bedroom, while another claims that it keeps them from sweating during the night.

Your phone’s Li-ion batteries have a limited lifespan. Fully charging or discharging the battery slowly degrades it. Monitoring phone battery levels is impractical, but you can set up charging notifications. Your favorite Samsung Galaxy phones let you set up Bixby routines to notify you of battery levels. Since other Android phones don’t have this feature, you’ll have to rely on third-party apps. This guide shows you how to set up custom charging notifications on Android.
