iPhone SE expected to get a performance upgrade early next year

The most unnasuming iPhone is also one of Apple's most important models. The iPhone SE is ideal for users who want a smaller smartphone but who also crave the latest (somewhat) specs. With identical specs to the iPhone 6S, the iPhone SE also has an outstanding camera and, because of its smaller display, impressive battery life.

Apple has increased the iPhone SE's storage capacity and it looks like the wee iPhone is also going to get a pricessor update early next year. Rumour has it that the iPhone SE will be getting last year's A10 chip.

Renders of the 2018 Nissan Leaf show a completely redesigned and more aggressive stance with sleeker lines and a more futuristic profile. The upcoming Nissan Leaf looks amazing and will reportedly have a prototype with a range of 165 miles (265 kilometers), which isn't only an improvement over its predecessor, it puts it right in the mix with the 2017 Chevy Bolt and Tesla's new Model 3.

A tiny robot that fits in the palm of your hand, Cozmo is surprisingly complex. Put of the box, the robot is charged in its own dock and controlled using a smartphone app. This is a typical approach but there’s layers of interaction.
