Tech Bytes – The Most Affordable Humanoid Robot

Google confirms that they are not ending the Fitbit product line and that new products are planned to be announced. Android is experimenting with a new A.I anti-theft feature that will lock users' phones when detecting sudden motion. Unitree's G-1 goes on sale for consumers, becoming one of the most affordable humanoid robots on the market.

Google is putting the Fitbit rumors to rest. Despite recent reports, Google says it is not ending the Fitbit brand. The company says new Fitbit products are in the pipeline and Fitbit tech remains in Google products like the Pixel Watch 3.

Android users are getting a new AI-powered anti-theft feature. Google’s Theft Detection Lock monitors for unusual movements and immediately locks your screen to keep your data safe. It’s rolling out to users in Brazil, with a wider release expected later this year.

A robot that could soon be helping out around the house: The Unitree G-1 can walk, jump, and even flip food in a pan. Priced at $16,000, it’s not ready to make a full meal just yet, but it’s one of the most affordable humanoid robots on the market.
