Technology companies Dell, Samsung, and more launched computer, monitor, accessories and more this week (October 20-26, 2025).

DH's Gadgets Weekly edition features the latest personal technology products and related events, keeping you informed about everything happening in consumer electronics.

. The latest Dell Pro Max with GB10 computer is tailor-made for high-intensity workloads such as research studies for universities and complex programming coding for startups and technology companies.

Researchers can run large models like Llama 3.3 70B right on their desktops, enabling rapid hypothesis testing and model adaptation without relying on shared or remote resources.

The new Dell Pro Max is powered by NVIDIA Grace Blackwell and runs DGX OS, which promises to deliver true data centre-class AI performance at the point of work. It features 128GB unified memory to support models up to 200 billion parameters and can reach 1000 FP4 TOPS (trillion operations per second).

With pre-installed tools like CUDA, JupyterLab, Docker and AI Workbench, teams can unbox and start building in minutes. For those needing even more power, connecting two Dell Pro Max with GB10 systems turns them into a single node capable of supporting 400 billion-parameter models, a clear demonstration of Dell’s approach to scalable AI infrastructure.

In India, it costs Rs 3,99,000.

.iQOO 15 with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 launched . The new display features 3rd Generation ASYM-Light Technology. With this advanced asymmetrical optics, it can prevent screen reflection and direct glare, to deliver uniform, comfortable lighting across the desk while minimising eye strain.

.OnePlus 15 set for global debut next week. The latest Galaxy Watch8 and Watch8 Classic come with an advanced coin-sized carotenoid sensor.

Samsung was able to miniaturise the lab-grade sensor technology with exceptional accuracy, and it can turn users' diet into an actionable metric for healthier ageing.

And, to overcome challenges like melanin interference in darker skin tones, Samsung’s engineers opted to use the fingertip for measurements since it has the least melanin across all ethnic groups. They also added simple tweaks, like light fingertip pressure during scans, which helps temporarily reduce blood flow and haemoglobin interference, making the results more accurate.

. Establishing this new benchmark in wearable health tracking required years of intensive R&D, countless prototypes and unwavering grit.

. Microsoft has announced 12 new features that make Copilot more personal, more useful to improve productivity on Windows OS devices.
