Acer is giving mobile workers a sturdy new laptop to work with. The TravelMate P6 promises solid performance and a really long battery life. The company is pegging this will have a 20-hour battery life. It’s covered in magnesium alloy and remains non-descript, which is ideal for more buttoned-up corporate settings. It’s a 14-inch machine that’s just 0.65 inches thick. And with MIL-SPEC certification, it can handle a bit of roughing up as you lug it around.
When it comes to security, it has an integrated fingerprint reader and web cam with built-in shutter. Aside from an exceptionally long battery life, you can charge it up to 50 percent in 20 minutes or reach 100 percent in around two hours.

Fitbit and Snap have teamed up to create a fun new watch face for the Fitbit Versa and Ionic. There’s now a new Bitmoji clock face that updates throughout the day to reflect what you’re doing or motivate you to get moving. There are over 50 variations of your Bitmojis that respond to activities you’ve done or help motivate you to “create healthy habits.” Some of these include waving hello to start your day, dancing with your alarm clock, being on a treadmill after a great run, meditating when you are, and sleep walking when it’s time to go to sleep.
