Dyson V12s Detect Slim Submarine With Wet Spill Cleaning Launched in India
Dyson V12s Detect Slim Submarine price in India, availability
Dyson V12s Detect Slim Submarine price in India is set at Rs. 62,900. The device is the newest variant in the V12 Detect Slim series, which also includes the V12 Detect Slim Absolute package. The Absolute is currently available for Rs. 52,900 in India. The V12s Detect Slim Submarine will be available to buy on dyson.in and Dyson Demo stores across India.
Dyson V12s Detect Slim Submarine wet roller head attachment
In a product demonstration at the Dyson store in Mumbai, the Dyson V12s Detect Slim Submarine’s new attachments were demonstrated, with particular focus on the Submarine wet roller head. This fixture has a water tank for clean water, a catchment area for dirty water, and a roller which is meant for scrubbing and cleaning hard floors with the help of water. The system ejects water onto the floor at a rate of 18ml per minute, and is able to scrub and collect residue in water to be properly disposed of.
As per Dyson’s product experts, the Submarine attachment is primarily meant for cleaning wet spills, and it was able to clean stains such as felt markings on the floor and basic wet spills. However, I found that it could be used fairly effectively for mopping as well, since the water and roller effectively scrub the floor while working. Dyson further claims that the device can clean 95 percent of basic wet spills in the target area with two passes. The head is fairly flexible for easy movement, similar to the Dyson Omni-Glide vacuum cleaner.
The attachment can be opened and disassembled for cleaning, both of the roller and the 360ml dirty water catchment area, as well as to refill clean water in the 300ml reservoir. The head itself is fully blocked off to prevent water from going into the vacuum cleaner, with the Submarine attachment only drawing power from the main device to operate the mechanisms. Notably, the Submarine attachment won’t work with the existing Dyson V12 Detect Slim vacuum cleaner; you’ll need the specific ‘Submarine’ model for it.
Other attachments available with the Dyson V12s Detect Slim Submarine
You also get a more power laser detection attachment with the Dyson V12s Detect Slim Submarine, which is brighter and more effective at spotting dust and particles on the floor when in use, as compared to the original V12 Detect Slim’s similar attachment. Apart from this, Dyson is also including the hair screw tool (ideal for cleaning of sofas and mattresses), and other smaller non-mechanised tools such as the crevice cleaning tool, the extension pipe, and the brush tool.
You can, of course, choose to purchase the Dyson V12 Detect Slim Absolute variant, which is priced a fair bit lower but doesn’t come with the Submarine attachment. In most ways, the V12 series operates similarly regardless of which variant you purchase, with a rated suction power of 150 Air Watts, a piezo sensor for particle detection, an LCD screen for battery and cleaning stats, and three different suction modes ranging in power.

Apple Might Be Thinking of Making Its Own TV Set, but There’s a Catch
Apple TV Set Could Compete With Offerings From Popular TV Manufacturers
Gurman writes that Apple is “evaluating” the development of an “Apple-branded TV set” in his newsletter, which suggests that the company is at a very early stage. However, MacRumors points out that this is not the first time that word of Apple’s plans to make its own TV have surfaced online — the company was rumoured to be developing its own TV as early as 2009.
Apple’s purported TV set would arrive as part of several smart devices being developed by the company, according to Gurman. The journalist previously revealed that the first of these devices would be a wall-mounted smart home hub that could control other devices and offer support for features like video calling.
However, Gurman says that if the smart home hub fails, Apple could “rethink its smart home ambitions once again”. The company is said to be working on a more advanced version of the smart home hub, equipped with a robotic arm, that could arrive with a higher $1,000 (roughly Rs. 84,400) price tag.
If the company is thinking of developing its own TV set, the company would face competition from several manufacturers such as Sony, Samsung, LG, and Sharp — these firms offer a range of TVs across price models, while Apple can be expected to introduce a model with high-end specifications.
Apple’s TV set could also offer support for features available on its TV box that include Siri, HomeKit, and more. It’s currently unclear whether Apple will use the same operating system — tvOS — on the purported TV set.

Apple Could Launch an ‘AI Wall Tablet’ With Home Controls, Video Calling
Apple’s Wall-Mounted Display Might Not Support Third-Party Apps
According to the report, Apple’s first smart home device powered by Apple Intelligence will comprise a 6-inch display that appears to resemble two iPhone units placed next to each other. It will reportedly be equipped with a camera and built-in speakers that enable support for video calls, and it can be used with optional bases that are equipped with speakers.
Apple is also developing a new operating system for the new wall-mounted display that is codenamed “Pebble”, according to Bloomberg. It will reportedly feature a customisable home screen that shows icons for various apps, while widgets will provide information at a glance.
The first-generation smart home device, codenamed J490, is expected to feature support for the company’s applications such as Apple News, Apple Music, FaceTime, and Safari, but it is unlikely to include an App Store, as per the report.
While the wall-mounted display is expected to operate independently, it will reportedly require an iPhone to be set up. There’s no word on the hardware powering the device, but we can expect to offer performance on par with Apple’s A17 Pro chip or an M1 chip, along with 8GB of RAM.
Apple has spent over three years on developing the new wall-mounted display and the company plans to launch the device in March 2025, according to the report. It could be available in black and silver colourways.
Meanwhile, another advanced smart home device that is equipped with a robotic arm that can move a display is reportedly in development. It is unclear when Apple plans to launch this device, but it could be priced as high as $1,000 (roughly Rs. 84,400). Meanwhile, the wall-mounted display is expected to have a much lower price tag, according to the report.

Apple Supplier Goertek Could Produce These Two New Products Coming in 2026
Apple Picks Goertek to Produce New Products Arriving in 2026
In a post on Medium, Kuo states that Apple is planning to launch its first smart home IP camera device in 2026, which will offer wireless connectivity with Apple’s other devices, as well as software integration with Siri and Apple Intelligence. According to supply chain analyst, the company is looking at a long-term goal of annual shipments of over 10 million, and has picked China-based Goertek to be the sole assembler for the product.
Apple’s second product will be an upgraded version of the company’s AirPods truly wireless stereo (TWS) earphones, Kuo claims. The analyst predicts that the company’s upcoming AirPods will also focus on health-related features, and that these earphones will be assembled by Goertek
Earlier this year, Apple announced that the AirPods Pro (2nd Generation) would be updated with support for using the headset as a hearing aid — the company received approval from the US FDA in September.
In 2023, a patent related to a wireless audio product was spotted online, that suggested Apple was working on AirPods sensors that could measure brain electrical activity, while another report claimed that Apple was designing a new AirPods Pro model that could monitor body temperature using inbuilt sensors.
Citing supply chain reports, Kuo claims that Goertek’s relationship has Apple has “normalised” in the second half of 2024, months after it lost many orders due to “supply compliance issues”. Goertek is expected to be the sole supplier for the smart home IP camera, and the primary supplier for the next-generation AirPods.
