Apple is preparing to unveil one of its most significant MacBook Pro redesigns in recent years, introducing OLED displays and a suite of advanced features. This update aligns with Apple’s established five-year hardware redesign cycle and is projected to debut in 2027. The new models are expected to launch alongside the M6 Pro and M6 […]

Update, 4:05PM ET: A few hours after this story was published, Google reached out to retract the news. The company provided Engadget with the following statement:
"Search Live has not rolled out globally to all users. It remains available in the US and India, with testing currently underway in additional markets. We apologize for the earlier miscommunication."
Given that the company says it is testing in more markets, it seems entirely possible that the global Search Live release will happen sooner than later. But, for now, it’s on hold.
The original, unedited article follows below:
After rolling out Search Live to all US Google app users last September, Google is now bringing the feature to every place where it offers its AI Mode chatbot. Search Live, if you need a reminder, allows you to point your phone's camera at an object or scene and ask questions about what you see in front of you. Google debuted the tool at I/O 2025 before it began rolling it out to users. With today's expansion, Search Live is available in more than 200 countries and territories.
What's more, Google has updated the feature to run off its Gemini 3.1 Flash model, an upgrade the company says should translate to more natural conversations, in addition to a faster and more reliable experience. The new model is also natively multilingual. You can access Search Live from the Google app on Android and iOS. Tap the "Live" button below the search bar to get started. You can also access Search Live through Google Lens. As in the Google app, look for the "Live" icon, here located near the bottom of the screen, to start chatting.

Most of us have looked up at the night sky at some point and felt that brief, humbling recognition that there is an enormous universe out there, and we have no idea what is happening in it. Then a notification comes in, and the moment passes. Lumen Orbit, a student concept from CEPT University, is a small handheld accessory designed to keep that awareness alive without requiring a telescope, a star chart, or a dedicated app.
The device is disc-shaped and roughly palm-sized, with a two-part body split along its equator by a copper-toned accent band. The upper half is a polished silver-gray cap; the lower sits wider and shallower in a dark matte gunmetal finish. A woven braided lanyard with a hexagonal metal clasp attaches to the body, making it something you can loop around a wrist, hook to a bag, or hang using a built-in fold-out carabiner.

The primary face carries a circular display showing real-time planetary positions: which planet is currently visible, where it sits in the sky relative to your location, and when it rises and sets. Flip the device over, and a second, smaller screen on the reverse offers a close-up planetary render. The UI uses pixel-art-style graphics for its planet illustrations, landing somewhere between retro charm and deliberate restraint.
The interaction model is equally considered. A flip gesture switches between the two display modes, squeezing the body cycles through planets, and haptic vibration signals astronomical events such as meteor showers, eclipses, and alignments. The idea is that information about the cosmos arrives the same way a text message does, as a quiet nudge rather than something you have to actively seek out.
What the concept is really proposing is a dedicated single-purpose ambient device for astronomical awareness. Smartphones can technically do all of this through apps, but a specialized physical object changes the relationship to the information entirely. Carrying something whose only purpose is to connect you to the solar system is a genuinely different proposition than opening an app between emails.
The open questions are substantial. How the real-time tracking handles connectivity, how the device charges, and how positional accuracy works without confirmed GPS integration are things the concept leaves unspecified. The form is confident, and the interaction logic is coherent. The more interesting problem is whether a working version could fit into a jacket pocket for easy access.

Coolers are great until the trip ends. Then they become a large, oddly shaped object that takes up the entire trunk on the way home, sits on the garage floor for a month, and eventually gets shoved into whatever corner will take it. For apartment dwellers especially, owning a full-sized hard cooler is less a convenience and more a spatial negotiation that rarely ends well.
Coleman’s Snap ‘N Go is a hard-sided cooler with a patent-pending collapsible design that compresses to one-third of its open volume in under 10 seconds. The mechanism borrows logic from folding storage crates: the body panels snap down in sequence, and the removable interior liner folds flat and stows inside the lid. What was a full-sized cooler becomes a flat slab thin enough to slide under a bed or stand upright on a shelf between uses.
Designer: Coleman
The construction is hard polypropylene, which matters more than it sounds. Soft collapsible coolers already exist, but they sacrifice insulation to achieve that flexibility. The Snap ‘N Go maintains a fully insulated lid and body, rated to hold ice for up to 64 hours. That’s two full days of cold retention from something that, an hour later, disappears into a closet, which is a combination the soft-sided category has never managed.
Setup works in reverse, just as quickly. From flat storage to loaded and latched takes under 10 seconds, and the removable liner handles watertight containment once the body is expanded. The liner also makes post-trip cleanup more manageable, since it pulls out separately rather than requiring the whole cooler to be rinsed out and dried upright somewhere. It’s a small detail, but one that addresses one of the more tedious parts of cooler ownership.
Three sizes cover most group sizes: 35 qt at $200, 45 qt at $220, and 55 qt at $240. The 55-qt model holds up to 93 cans without ice and supports 200 lbs. when expanded, though Coleman is careful to note it isn’t intended as a seat. Handles are designed to accommodate both carry orientations, vertical when the cooler is collapsed flat and horizontal when it’s fully open and loaded.
The one question the design raises, and doesn’t fully answer yet, is how the collapsible mechanism ages. The hinges, panel connections, and liner attachment points are all doing repetitive work that a standard molded cooler body never has to perform. Coleman backs it with a three-year limited warranty, which covers the expected lifespan question in practical terms but doesn’t tell you much about what happens in year four after a few dozen collapse cycles on a tailgate.
