Save $90 on the Kindle Colorsoft Kids and get a color E Ink display, 16GB storage, and up to 12 weeks of battery life. Kindle Colorsoft Kids deal knocks the 16GB color e-reader down to $209.99. That’s a 30% discount relative to the RRP, and it’s the lowest price we’ve seen for this reader since Prime Day.

This deal stands out because the Kindle Colorsoft Kids features a color E-Ink touchscreen, which makes comics, illustrated books, and colorful covers more fun to read. It comes with 16GB of storage, so there’s room for a big library, and Amazon includes 6 months of Amazon Kids+ for access to age-appropriate reading content and kid-focused software features. It also packs in the extras you’d want from a daily e-reader.

You get USB-C charging, an auto-adjusting front light for reading in different lighting, and Dark Mode. Battery life is rated at up to 12 weeks, so it can go a long time between charges.

Xiaomi launched the Poco C95 Pro in select regions globally, including the EU and Singapore. The key highlights of the Poco C95 Pro include a 7,500mAh battery with support for 45W wired charging and a large 6.9 inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate and Gorilla Glass 7i protection.

Award-winning camera app Halide Mark III has been updated to version 3.2, bringing dedicated support for iPhone 18 Pro by broadening user control over the device’s new variable aperture camera system. Apple’s stock Camera app lets iPhone 18 Pro owners choose from a four-stop variable aperture ranging from ƒ/1.48 to ƒ/4.0, delivering around 50 percent better low-light performance and giving users more optical control over depth of field.

The handset is powered by the MediaTek Helio G91 Ultra chipset, paired with up to 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 256GB of eMMC 5.1 storage. For photography, the Poco C95 Pro features a 50MP primary rear camera alongside an auxiliary lens.

Halide 3.2 does away with that four-stop limitation and instead lets you select any ƒ-stop setting within the camera’s full range. There are two styles of aperture control in the app.

An 8MP front camera handles selfies and video calls. Poco C95 Pro launches with a 7,500mAh battery and 6.9 inch display.

The first is Aperture Priority mode, where you can set the ƒ-stop and the app handles the shutter speed and ISO to properly expose the shot. The other style is Manual mode, which gives users full control over all three settings.

Other features include a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, a microSD card slot for storage expansion, dual band Wi Fi, Bluetooth 5.4, GPS, NFC, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.

This includes ISO settings – something that Apple’s stock Camera app doesn’t offer manual control over. Halide has said it is also considering adding f-stop presets in future updates, based on user feedback.

The phone runs HyperOS 3 and carries an IP64 rating. The Poco C95 Pro is available in Blue, Black, and Green color options.

Elsewhere in this update though, Halide 3.2 adds two new film simulations, or photographic looks: Dawn and Quicksilver. Dawn features "filmic warmth in mid-tones and highlights, paired with rich yet gentle shadows and subtle complementary cool colors." Quicksilver is described as a "high contrast and muted color" that simulates a "silver-retention alternative process." Halide’s developers call it an "excellent midpoint between color and stark black-and-white." Lastly, version 3.2 introduces a new 16:9 aspect ratio shooting mode for those who want to use a wider framing.

IPhone 18 Pro: Using the New Variable Aperture Lens Halide 3.2 is available to download on the App Store, and costs $69.99 as a one-time purchase price, or $19.99 for an annual subscription.
