CES helps us all get into the spirit of the new year with a slew of new devices and technologies being introduced every year. The 2024 Consumer Electronics Show was no different. But, since we are infamous for being very loud fans of smart home tech, we got attracted to the next generation of cleaning products introduced by Roborock at the event.
The industry-leading smart home tech maker didn't just release one or two new products; it introduced six new cleaning solutions based on the latest market research that enabled the company to focus on what exactly the consumer wants in the future of cleaning products. These include the S8 MaxV Ultra, S8 Max Ultra, Q Revo MaxV, Q Revo Pro, Flexi Pro, and Flexi Lite.
"The industry is experiencing a major shift where customers are not only searching for products that clean well but are also easy, smart to interact with and can seamlessly integrate into their smart home," Richard Chang, Founder & CEO of Roborock, said at the event.
For those who like to be in control of the cleaning process and use a handheld product, Roborock's new Flexi Pro and Flexi Lite bring lightweight and flexible solutions to tackling wet and dry messes in a single sweep with 17,000Pa suction power while delivering exceptional edge-to-edge cleaning performance and in a lay-flat position. One of the key features includes Roborock's FlatReach™ Technology, which enables the Flexi Series to lay flat and clean under low furniture while having the ability to clean edges and corners with margins of less than 1mm.
The Flexi series also includes DirTect™ Smart Sensor technology that adjusts the cleaning power during cleaning and self-cleaning according to dirt levels detected, ensuring a thorough cleaning experience. Also included is Roborock RevoBrush™ 2.0 with its signature Self-Drying & Cleaning System for wet-dry vacuums, now upgraded with warm water cleaning and warm air-drying. The Roborock Flexi Pro is also equipped with SlideTech™ automated adaptive wheels for lighter push-pull motion with headlight, dual edges cleaning, voice alerts, and more.
Roborock has also upgraded its trusted Q Revo and flagship S Max Series, both utilizing Roborock’s proprietary FlexiArm Design™ Side Brush that is powered by a robotic arm to clean hard-to-reach spaces with 100% corner coverage.
The company plans to start selling the new Q Revo and S8 Max models in April 2024, with prices starting from $999.99 and going up to $1799.99 for the highest-end S8 MaxV Ultra. Availability and MSRP for the Flexi series haven't been announced yet.

The Year of the Dragon is here, featuring the return of fan-favorite Mischief and Magic prop hunt, past Lunar New Year game modes, new rewards, and all new skins in the shop. Read on to discover what adventures and rewards await when you log onto Overwatch 2.
Sky: Children of the Light is celebrating Lunar New Year 2024 with the Days of Fortune event. It kicks off on January 29 and runs through February 11. It has awesome stuff in store like drum circles, ice rink races and flying on dragons. Keep reading to know more about the Days of Fortune Sky event!
Pokemon GO has revealed the details for its upcoming Lunar New Year event, including a brand-new Shiny and increased spawn rates for a plethora of Dragon Pokemon. The massively popular monster-catching mobile game from Niantic often features limited-time events for various holidays, featuring unique Pokemon and rewards. The game's recent «Dazzling Dream» event gave players the chance to catch plenty of Fairy Pokemon, including shiny variants of Cutiefly and Ribombee. Now, Niantic is ringing in the Year of the Dragon with a new event centered around Dragon Pokemon.
A new Palia update is on the way, and it builds on the Maji Market. The Luna New Year update makes the previous festival space more bustling and busy, with new activities, rewards, recipes, and quests. It is a much beefier take on the previous Maji Market event, and it shows how developer Singularity Six is iterating and expanding on the existing world.
Palworld first captured the attention of gamers (and their internet sphere) when it was revealed back in 2021. While that reveal included details about the survival aspects of the game, including multiplayer, crafting, and farming, viewers honed in on the idea of it being Pokémon but with guns. You can capture Pokémon-like monsters called Pals in special balls (and you can capture humans, too), but it's smart to shoot them or hack at them with an axe first to lower their health. And then, once under your command, you can give them their own guns to use, of course.
The Sims 4 recently released a kit focused on castle building, and a player has managed to make an incredible castle, resorting only to the items available in the base game and this new pack. The Sims 4 went free-to-play in 2022, and this made it possible for a greater number of gamers to enjoy the game. While players can enjoy dozens of features with the base game, they can also significantly diversify the type of gameplay they get access to by purchasing additional content.
Developer One More Level is celebrating the Lunar New Year with an update coming to Ghostrunner 2. The update, set for release on February 8, will bring Chinese VO to the game, along with a host of new content for the title’s Roguerunner.exe mode.
Video games can be an expensive hobby. I’m sure I don’t have to tell you that. There are several big title releases each month, and with this latest-generation console, we saw the price for new AAA games rise. Rather than paying the once-standard $59.99 for a new game, we’re digging further into our pockets to pay the new $69.99 price tag. This all boils down to waiting for some games to drop in price. We might have to be more selective on the games we pick up at launch and which titles are left to drop in price over time. Fortunately, sales are always going on, including on official marketplaces like the PlayStation Store.
The Hoplet pet is now available for the Lunar New Year in retail WoW! This pet was available as part of the 2022 Subscription Bundle for WoW Classic. Now it's also available in Retail WoW.
It was a staple game on tablets about ten years ago. We remember everyone playing Plants Vs Zombies back then, and, along with its sequel and various spinoffs, it's still an immensely popular mobile game today.
Things are starting to pick up for the Switch eShop, as Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown and Another Code: Recollection are both launching on the same day. Turnip Boy Robs a Bank is another pretty fun addition, which we have a review for if you’re interested.
