Casio has released two new Color Camo watches in the US. Priced at $210, the new GAV01CMG-4A (pink) and GAV01CMG-6A (purple) models join the green variant that the company introduced last month.
The release focuses heavily on current Y2K fashion trends, applying bright, multi-angle printed camouflage patterns to the familiar, oversized G-Shock silhouette.
Design Details
From a design perspective, the new GAV01 models utilize a multi-angle printing (MAP) technique across the resin bezel and band. The camouflage pattern itself incorporates a subtle branding detail, with Casioβs G logo hidden within the organic shapes of the camo.
The watches maintain a large footprint, measuring 49.1 x 58.2 x 19.6 mm and weighing 74 grams. Underneath the patterned resin exterior, the watches feature the standard durability metrics associated with the brand. Both models are shock-resistant and offer 200-meter water resistance.
The display is protected by spherical mineral glass and utilizes a hybrid analog-digital layout. To make the digital readouts easier to see, Casio has included a hand shift feature that temporarily moves the analog hands out of the way of the digital display.
Internally, both watches run on a CR2025 battery, which Casio estimates will last approximately 10 years. For low-light visibility, the watches are equipped with a double LED Super Illuminator that lights up both the analog face and the digital display with a white LED.
The GAV01CMG-4A and GAV01CMG-6A are available for purchase now in the US.

Casio is rounding out its Bold Camo G-Shock lineup in the US this week with two new models. After bringing the first four watches of the Japan-originated collection stateside last month, the company has just released the final two pieces: the GA-700CF-1A and the DW-6900CF-1.
Design Details
Both models feature standard matte black resin bands and bezels, which are paired with camouflage-patterned dials. The visual update comes from the gold-colored vapor deposition applied to the watch faces. It is a specific streetwear-oriented look, offering a bit more contrast than standard tactical G-Shocks without changing the underlying hardware.
The GA-700CF-1A is the larger of the two, priced at $145. It is an analog-digital hybrid built around the chunky GA-700 case, measuring 57.5 x 53.4 x 18.5 mm and weighing 75 grams. On this model, the gold accents are applied to the physical hands and the raised hour markers.
It includes a practical hand-shift feature that moves the analog hands out of the way so you can clearly read the digital displays underneath. Other standard features include world time across 31 zones, a 1/100-second stopwatch, a 60-minute countdown timer, and five daily alarms.
If you prefer a purely digital display, the $120 DW-6900CF-1 applies the same black, camo, and gold colorway to the classic 6900 case. It is slightly smaller at 53.2 x 50 x 18.7 mm and weighs 67 grams.
The gold detailing here frames the digital readouts on the dial. It comes with standard digital G-Shock features, including a 24-hour countdown timer, a multi-function alarm, and a flash alert system that triggers the LED backlight to blink in sync with your alarms and hourly timers.
As expected from the G-Shock line, both watches share the exact same baseline durability specs. They feature mineral glass, shock-resistant resin construction, and 200 meters of water resistance. Both run on a standard CR2016 battery, which Casio says should last about five years before needing a replacement.
Both the GA-700CF-1A and DW-6900CF-1 are available to purchase now.
Casio has expanded its Baby-G watch lineup in the United States with the release of the BG169CMB-8. Priced at $155, the new model is a gray camouflage digital watch that joins the pink and blue-green variants the company released last month.
Design Details
The watch is built on the existing BG-169 chassis, which is characterized by a compact, round resin case and external metal face protectors. The primary update for the BG169CMB-8 is the exterior styling. Both the bezel and the resin band feature an all-over gray camouflage print. Casio has also integrated its standard G-mark logo directly into the camouflage pattern.
While the previously released pink and blue-green models utilize translucent dials, the gray BG169CMB-8 has a distinct hardware finish. It includes an ion-plated bezel ring for a metallic texture and uses a negative LCD for the digital display. This gives the gray model a uniform, monochromatic appearance compared to the other colors in the series.
In terms of physical dimensions, the watch case measures 45.9 x 42.6 x 16.4 mm, and the entire unit weighs 43 grams. It is designed to fit wrist sizes ranging from 135 to 200 mm.
The watch maintains the standard durability ratings of the Baby-G series, offering shock resistance and 200-meter (20 bar) water resistance, making it suitable for swimming. The screen is protected by mineral glass, and the device is powered by a standard CR1616 battery, which Casio says will last for approximately three years.
The BG169CMB-8 includes standard digital watch functionalities. It supports world time across 29 time zones (30 cities) with daylight saving toggles. It also features a stopwatch, a countdown timer, an hourly time signal, and five separate alarms. For low-light visibility, it uses a white LED backlight with an afterglow function.
Additionally, the watch includes two legacy digital features. The Telememo function provides on-device storage for up to 25 contacts, allowing users to save an eight-character name and a 12-digit phone number per entry. There is also a Day Counter feature that calculates and displays the remaining days until a specific target date, with memory for up to five separate dates ranging up to the year 2049.
The Casio Baby-G BG169CMB-8 is available for purchase now in the US.
Xiaomi has released a new water flosser under its Mijia brand that adds a screen and smartphone connectivity to a standard bathroom tool. The Mijia Smart Water Flosser Pro is currently listed on the companyβs Youpin platform in China for 399 yuan, which converts to roughly $58. It is available in Gold, Twilight Gray, and Light Purple colors.
Xiaomi Mijia Smart Water Flosser Pro Specifications
The device uses a rotating nozzle that outputs two streams of water simultaneously. It combines a standard, direct water jet in the center with a wider, umbrella-shaped spray on the outside.
Xiaomi claims this dual-stream approach covers a larger area than a standard nozzle and removes up to 99.99% of plaque. The tip of the nozzle also has a small silicone guide to help users physically align the water stream with the gaps between their teeth.
Along with the standard nozzle, the flosser includes two other attachments. One is a microbubble nozzle that mixes air into the water to make it gentler on sensitive gums, and the other is an orthodontic nozzle with bristles to help clean around braces and retainers.
On the tech side, the handle features a small color display. It shows basic information like the current cleaning mode, battery life, and a timer while in use. The device has four default settings programmed in: Gentle, Standard, Strong, and Custom.
Connecting the flosser to the Mijia smartphone app opens up more settings. You can choose from 10 different water pressure levels, three pulse speeds, and three flow patterns, including continuous, intermittent, and wave. The app also tracks how often the device is used, logs the duration of each session, and can send notifications to remind users to floss.
The physical design includes a modular water tank system. The main handle holds 80mL of water, keeping the device relatively compact for travel. For home use, a larger 220mL tank attaches to the bottom to hold more water. To save space in a bag, the nozzle can be removed and stored inside the main body.
The flosser charges via a standard USB-C port, and the full charge takes about four hours. Xiaomi estimates the battery can last up to 105 days on a single charge.
Additionally, the device includes an IPX8 waterproof rating, a travel lock to prevent accidental activation, a two-minute automatic shutoff timer, and a pressure stabilization system designed to keep the water flow consistent even when the battery is running low.
In related news, Xiaomi has recently introduced the Mijia Handheld Fan in a new green color option, alongside a new 5L smart kettle featuring app connectivity, 1Β°C temperature adjustment, and water circulation technology.

Lenovo has announced the ThinkVision E24q-30, a new 23.8-inch monitor available in the Chinese market. The display is currently listed on the retail platform JD.com with a price of 1,149 yuan, which converts to approximately $170.
Lenovo ThinkVision E24q-30 Specifications
The ThinkVision E24q-30 features a 23.8-inch IPS panel with a 2560 x 1440 resolution, delivering a sharp 123 PPI pixel density. It also offers 300 nits of typical brightness and a 1300:1 contrast ratio for clear and detailed visuals.
The monitor includes a native 100Hz refresh rate and a 4ms response time when set to fast mode. The exterior design incorporates a three-sided narrow bezel, which is standard for current monitors intended for multi-display setups.
Regarding color performance, the monitor supports an 8-bit color depth, which is implemented using a 6-bit panel with Frame Rate Control (FRC) technology to produce up to 16.7 million colors. The display covers 99% of the sRGB color gamut, making it suitable for standard web design, photo editing, and general media consumption.

The display also utilizes DC dimming technology to eliminate screen flicker and includes an anti-glare coating to reduce surface reflections. The unit holds TΓV Rheinland Low Blue Light, TΓV Rheinland Eye Comfort, and Eyesafe 2.0 certifications.
The included monitor stand offers multiple ergonomic adjustments. You can adjust the height up to 155mm, tilt the screen from -5Β° to 22Β°, and swivel the display. It also supports a 90-degree pivot rotation for use in a vertical portrait orientation. The back of the monitor is compatible with standard VESA mounts, supporting both 100 x 100mm and 75 x 75mm configurations.
For connectivity, it includes one HDMI 2.0 port and one DisplayPort 1.2 input, with both interfaces capable of supporting the maximum 1440p resolution at 100Hz. The monitor includes a Kensington lock slot and dual built-in 2W speakers for basic audio output.
Minisforum is releasing a new mini PC, the MS-03, designed specifically for enterprise IT and local AI applications. While the company typically focuses on consumer hardware, this model is built as an edge workstation for businesses that need to run large language models locally rather than relying on cloud infrastructure.
Minisforum MS-03 Specifications
Inside, the MS-03 uses Intelβs Panther Lake Core Ultra 9 386H, a 16-core, 16-thread processor with a 4.9 GHz maximum turbo frequency and an 80W power limit in its standard balanced mode.
For local AI workloads, the chip utilizes an integrated NPU capable of 50 TOPS and an integrated GPU that provides an additional 40 TOPS. According to Minisforum, this hardware can run the Gemma 4-26B model at an inference speed of 22.05 tokens per second.
The system supports up to 128GB of DDR5 memory at speeds up to 7200 MT/s via two SO-DIMM slots. Storage options are relatively broad for a chassis measuring 196 x 189 x 48mm. The board includes three M.2 NVMe slots: two are PCIe 5.0 and one is PCIe 4.0. The package also comes with an M.2-to-U.2 adapter, which allows users to install 7mm-thick U.2 enterprise SSDs up to 15TB.
Networking is a primary focus of the MS-03. The rear panel features dual 10GbE SFP+ fiber ports powered by an Intel X710 controller, allowing direct connection to fiber switches. It also includes a 10GbE RJ-45 port and a 2.5GbE RJ-45 port. Wireless connectivity is handled by an Intel BE211 module, which provides Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6.
For further hardware additions, there is a physical PCIe x16 slot (wired for PCIe 4.0 x4) to accommodate half-height expansion cards. It also supports a low-profile discrete GPU inside the chassis, with support for up to 75W cards running over a maximum of eight PCIe lanes.
Standard I/O includes two USB4 Type-C ports with DisplayPort 2.1 Alt Mode, an HDMI 2.1 port, and four USB-A ports split across the front and back.
For IT administrators, the system supports Intel vPro for remote management, enabling out-of-band repairs, monitoring, and power cycling. Cooling is managed by a three-heatpipe heatsink and a single fan, which operates at around 38 dB under full load in balanced mode.
Pricing and Availability
Pre-orders for the MS-03 open globally on July 23. Minisforum has not yet announced pricing details.
