The big news of the week was that Microsoft officially bought Activision Blizzard, the company behind some of the biggest video games, including all the Call of Duty titles. for nearly $70 billion. Yes, that's billion with a "b." But don't worry PlayStation fans, Xbox CEO Phil Spencer has promised it won't be pulling COD from the rival console. In other news, Amazon announced plans to open a number of high-tech brick-and-mortars clothing stores called Amazon Style. And the White House launched COVIDTests.gov, a website that allows you to order free at-home COVID-19 tests (up to four) online. Additionally, a bunch of new gadgets were announced.
Canon EOS R5C
Canon
Canon's 2020 EOS R5 is a beast of a stills camera, and one of the best tech products that came out that year. But while it could also take 8K video, it struggled with overheating issues that made the R5 impractical as a real video workhorse. Enter the EOS R5C. This newly announced shooter comes with a dedicated cooling system (and some additional bulk) to help realize the full 8K HDR potential of Canon's full-frame 45MP sensor. The catch? It's $600 more expensive and doesn't have in-body image stabilization, which means that as a stills camera, it a big step back from the R5's 8 stops of IBIS. Looks like the R5 can be wickedly capable for video or stills, but maybe not both at the same time.
Price: $4,499 (body only)
Suunto 5 Peak
Suunto
The Suunto 5 Peak is the company's latest GPS smartwatch designed primarily outdoor enthusiasts.

It also has an incredibly battery life that can go up to 100 hours between charges. Maybe most crucially, the Suunto 5 Peak is actually more affordable. It costs $329 and will start shipping February 1st.

Additionally, both have detachable boom mics, are fully compatible with the latest PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and are available in either white or black finishes.
