The latest addition to the lineup comes in the form of an updated G15, although its launch is limited to China for the time being. Dell has redesigned the device to be more industrial-looking, but the most intriguing thing here is the new ‘…with speckles’ colour options.

Comparison with the V11 The Outsize’s key selling points, when compared to the V11 Absolute, are its more capacious dustbin and wider cleaning head. The bin is 150% larger. It’s a roomy 1.7 litres, compared to the Absolute’s 0.76 litres. A smaller bin isn’t a huge problem if you have a smaller home. You’re always fairly near the kitchen. But if you’re up on the second floor cleaning bedrooms and need to empty it, it’ll feel like quite a hassle to stop what you’re doing and trek down to the kitchen bin....

Elliot Schrage, former head of public policy and communications at Facebook, has taken the blame for this in an internal memo originally posted by TechCrunch within which Schrage defended the use of the firm for ‘opposition research’.

That, along with the fact that there are literally hundreds of cheap action cameras out there, is why we now have a ‘cheap’ GoPro Hero. No numbers, no colours, just Hero.
