What do you mean my new smart scale is ‘built for GLP-1 users’?

This is Optimizer, a weekly newsletter sent from Verge senior reviewer Victoria Song that dissects and discusses the latest gizmos and potions that swear they're going to change your life. Opt in for Optimizer here. A few days ago, I walked into the basement of a midtown gym. Smoothies and healthy snacks were passed out. Fresh from a group workout, sweaty fitness influencers (and some less sweaty tech reporters) sat in a semicircle on some patchy leather couches and recliners. We were all there

This AI startup says it can tell if a script will make a hit film

When Quilty hit the industry trades earlier this year, the AI startup promised that its tool could accurately predict a film's success just by reading the script. When people actually got a chance to experiment with Quilty's product, though, they were left skeptical. Even with all the available data in the world, it predicted the script for Christy, which would go on to be a box office flop, would outperform the script for Sinners, which became an Oscar-winning blockbuster. As many AI execs have

Why isn’t the Trump phone made in the USA?

Where's the Trump phone? We're going to keep talking about it every week. We've reached out, as usual, to ask about the Trump phone's whereabouts. This week, I'm investigating where it might have been built - and why it definitely wasn't the US. Almost a year after its announcement, the Trump phone has "launched." A few journalists and YouTubers have received early samples of the phone, though there's still little evidence that any regular buyers have gotten theirs. If and when anyone else gets

This chunky little tablet got my kid to clean up his toys

Just a cute little guy. Never underestimate the power that a cheap tablet holds over a kid under six. The Skylight Buddy is a device with one job: to be a cute little guy that helps your kid track routines and chores. It's $139.99, plus an optional subscription. And to my surprise, even though it offers a pretty limited set of features without the $39-per-year "Plus" features, it actually worked. Skylight recommends the Buddy for kids aged four up to 10. An adult has to set it up, naturally, whi

I customized a MacBook Neo with colorful spare parts

Indigo, citrus, and a touch of blush. It’s a Neo cocktail. | Photo: Antonio G. Di Benedetto / The Verge The MacBook Neo is Apple's cheapest laptop, its most colorful, and its easiest to repair in years. That means owners can buy replacement parts in all four of its available colors and swap them in on their own. So that got us thinking: What if we bought a Neo just to see how funky we could make it look with official parts? I ordered an indigo Neo to tinker with, and some spare parts from Apple'
