Majority of drivers have missed concerts, holidays and even WEDDINGS due to car troubles, survey shows
MOTORISTS are reported to have missed weddings, concerts – and even holidays due to car troubles. A poll of 2,000 motorists found 61 per cent have had their plans scuppered thanks to a car problems, with one in twenty of those completely missing a loved one's wedding. 1 Others have had to cancel holidays (five per cent), have missed flights (four per cent) and a job interview (four per cent). Family gatherings (11 per cent), day trips (eight per cent) and hospital appointments (six per cent) are also among the events that have been missed altogether due to car issues. With flat tyres or punctures (52 per cent), battery failures (39 per cent), and engine warning lights (28 per cent) the most likely faults to wreak havoc on journey plans. It also emerged summer is considered the worst time to experience car trouble, with 30 per cent confessing it's the season they have the most plans they rely on their vehicle for. The study was commissioned by Vixa – a car health assistant from The AA – which has teamed up with UK garage talent and So Solid Crew Member Lisa Maffia as part of their Garage Bangers campaign, to create a nostalgic summer track 'Keep it Rollin' in a car garage. It features real engine sounds and beats, aiming to raise awareness of how summer car troubles can ruin plans. Matt Barker from the brand, said: 'With summer upon us, many of us depend on our cars to enjoy holidays, share day trips or head to important events. 'Sometimes problems seem to come out of nowhere – leading to disappointment and frustration from drivers and passengers alike. 'Use of a car health assistant and regular maintenance checks can help you to stay on top of things and alert you to potential issues. 'There are some simple checks we can do to ensure our car is in the best possible shape. Drivers are 'hit with $600 fees over invisible damage' to rental cars - Hertz is leading the pack as AI up claims 'And hopefully the lyrics to this track will help people to remember what to do.' The research also revealed a quarter of motorists have turned down an invite or travel plan simply because they didn't trust their car to make the journey. Of those affected by car issues, 20 per cent put it down to trying to 'make do' with older vehicles. But 18 per cent admitted they lack knowledge about car maintenance – and often ignore strange noises coming from their motor which in turn has contributed to disruption to plans. When it comes to the summer months specifically, more than one in 10 experienced overheating engines, while nine per cent admitted to suffering a full tyre blowout. Overall, these incidents left nearly half feeling frustrated (49 per cent) and stressed (46 per cent). With one in seven (14 per cent) left embarrassed – and the same number felt guilty for letting others down according to the data. But while 40 per cent try to stay on top of their car's health – they do sometimes miss things. With 30 per cent opting to go to a garage in the event of a minor issue, whereas a quarter (26 per cent) try to fix it themselves. Matt Barker from Vixa added: 'From missed holidays to disrupted weddings, summer car trouble can throw a real spanner in the works. 'Garage Bangers brings that message to life in a fun and relatable way. 'It's all about helping people enjoy the moments that matter — and making sure car trouble doesn't get in the way.'

Sunseeker X7 Plus: The Ultimate Summer Lawn Care Helper for Effortless Greenery
Summer is here. Are you already dreading the lawn care tasks again? What if there was a better way? Imagine a summer where your lawn practically takes care of itself, leaving you more time to savor those sunny days. Enter the Sunseeker X7 Plus, your intelligent ally in the quest for effortless summer lawn perfection. Sunseeker X7 Plus will set your hands free. These autonomous mowers make lawn care effortless with AI-driven navigation, obstacle avoidance, All-Wheel Drive, all-terrain conquer, and wire-free setup – perfect for homeowners who love a beautiful lawn with zero hassle. AI Navigation: Mowing with Military Precision The Sunseeker AONavi™ Positioning and Navigation System combines Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) satellite positioning technology with VSLAM visual navigation that ensures accurate boundary setting and work routes regardless of obstacles or the unique shape of your lawn. The X7 Plus's intelligent path planning algorithm ensures precise, straight-line mowing and eliminates missed spots and over-mowing. With three customizable path options available in the app, you can easily tailor the mowing pattern to suit your garden and preferences. And the maximum mowing area can reach up to 1.5 acres. Obstacle Avoidance: Smart Safety for Peace of Mind When it comes to lawn care, safety is non-negotiable, especially with kids playing around. The Sunseeker X7 Plus takes safety to the next level with its Vision AI technology. Powered by advanced Vision AI technology, this smart mower can detect and recognize over 200 types of objects in real-time. Whether it's a stray ball, a garden tool, or even a sudden appearance of your curious child, its 3D vision technology provides precise depth perception. Once an obstacle is detected, the AI instantly calculates the best avoidance path and guides the mower around it smoothly. You no longer need to monitor its operation or worry about accidental collisions constantly. With the Sunseeker X7 Plus, your kids can play freely in the yard while it takes care of the grass, giving you complete peace of mind. All-Wheel Drive System & Floating Cut System: Adaptive Mastery for All-Terrain Lawn Perfection First and foremost, the All-Wheel Drive (AWD) System of the X7 Plus is a marvel of engineering designed to conquer any terrain. Whether you're dealing with a gentle slope or a steep incline of up to 70% (35°), this system ensures exceptional stability and control. The AWD mechanism intelligently distributes power to each of the four wheels in real-time, depending on the traction requirements. Complementing the AWD system is the advanced Floating Cut System. This innovative feature allows the mower to adapt effortlessly to the contours of your lawn. As the X7 Plus moves across uneven ground, the floating cut deck acts like a nimble dancer, adjusting its height relative to the grass surface. It can rise over bumps and dips, ensuring that the blades maintain a consistent cutting distance from the grass at all times. This not only results in a more even cut but also protects the blades from damage caused by hitting complex objects hidden beneath the grass. Another key highlight of the X7 Plus is its dual-disc system. Equipped with 14.0-inch blades, this system offers a wide cutting path, covering more ground in a single pass. The two discs are strategically positioned to maximize the cutting area while maintaining a balanced weight distribution. This wide cutting width reduces the number of passes required to mow your lawn, saving you time and energy. With an impressive efficiency of over 95%, it provides twice the performance of standard mowers. The angled design of the blades is a stroke of genius, enabling them to tackle thick grass effortlessly. They catch every single strand of grass, preventing tangles and ensuring consistent, flawless results. Real-Time Lawn App: Smart Control, Anytime, Anywhere In the tech-driven age, intelligent lawn care is no longer a fantasy, and the Sunseeker Elite Smart App is the key to a new era of convenience. Acting as a considerate lawn steward, it offers all-around control over your mower, far beyond basic mapping and scheduling. You can effortlessly divide your lawn into zones and set unique mowing parameters like height and frequency for each, achieving truly personalized care. What sets it apart is real-time updates. As the mower works, you get instant notifications on its location, covered area, and remaining time, keeping you informed whether you're at work or home. Plus, its user-friendly interface and cross-platform compatibility let you manage your lawn seamlessly from anywhere with an internet connection, using either iOS or Android devices. This app revolutionizes lawn management, allowing you to achieve a beautiful lawn with minimal effort and maximum convenience. Say Hi to Easy Charging Charging the X7 Plus is equally convenient. Once the mower has completed its mowing task or when the battery is running low, it will automatically navigate back to the charging station. You don't need to manually move the mower to the charger or plug in any cables. The charging station is designed with a user-friendly docking mechanism that ensures a secure connection every time. And when it's time to use the mower again, it will be fully charged and ready to go. In addition, one of the standout features of this product is its low noise level of 60dB(A). Whether the lawn mower is in the middle of a mowing session or charging at the station, the noise it generates is minimal. This means you can carry on with your daily activities inside the house without being disturbed by loud mowing sounds. Moreover, your neighbors won't be bothered either, allowing you to maintain a harmonious relationship with those around you. You can enjoy a well-manicured lawn without any of the noise-related headaches. Anyway, no more sweating over your lawn this summer! The Sunseeker X7 Plus handles all the hard work, so you can kick back and soak up the sunshine. Its price is $3,399.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 review: I ran and hiked 100 miles to test this new smartwatch
The products or services listed have been independently tested by our journalists. We earn a commission from the affiliate links in this article. Read more > What is the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8? The Galaxy Watch 8 is a health and fitness tracker that connects to Samsung and other Android smartphones. Think Apple Watch, but for the people who don't own Apple products. This new model is the latest smartwatch from Samsung and at £319 it's at the upper end of the market. It has a brighter display than previous models with a simple, slim design, but the battery needs recharging regularly. It's also the first from Samsung to integrate Google Gemini AI smart assistance and can handle complex tasks with a single voice command, such as: 'Find my next nearest parkrun and save it to my calendar'. The new running coach feature also includes 160 tailored training plans, a new antioxidant level estimate and sleep apnea detection, too. That's on top of traditional functions like showing incoming calls, notifications and music playback, and health fitness features like tracking your sleep and heart rate, and an integrated GPS. JUMP TO: How we test fitness trackers When I test smartwatches and fitness trackers I wear them non-stop, night and day, and only take them off to charge. I test their general day-to-day performance, trialling unique features, testing the battery life and getting a feel for how easy they are to set up, interact with and use. I assess how they handle intense exercise like a cycling workout or a run, more casual exercise like a morning walk, and how they manage notifications coming through from a connected smartphone. I also wear them to bed as many health features rely on data like your heart rate and respiratory rate when you're asleep. I compare all of this combined health, sleep and fitness data against the readings on a Garmin Forerunner 970 high-end running watch, an Eight Sleep Pod 4 mattress and a Garmin HRM 600 chest strap heart rate monitor. Why you can trust Telegraph Recommended Our tech experts continuously conduct in-depth, independent, real-world tests, scoring devices against pre-set testing metrics and industry benchmarks, so we can deliver definitive and comprehensive buying advice. Telegraph Recommended reviews are never shared with product manufacturers before publication, we don't accept payment in exchange for positive reviews, nor do we allow brands to pay for placement in our articles. Visit our Who We Are page to learn more Ease of use Score: 8/10 The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 was easy to set up and simple to use with my Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 smartphone. There are some extra hurdles to jump setup if you're not using a Samsung phone, however, and this smartwatch isn't compatible with an iPhone. The touchscreen and two-button controls on the side of the display let you tap and swipe through the screens. The set up of the display means its easy to navigation though the tools and health insights the smartwatch tracks, while manually tracking runs, cycles and swims is quick and easy. I found the automatic workout detection was swift to detect when I was on a walk and I the Google Gemini AI assistant was genuinely helpful when I wanted to track my progress or navigate a route. The smartwatch seamlessly synchronises your data within Samsung's connected health apps, making it easier to dig deeper into you daily health stats. Comfort and wearability Score: 8/10 This is a fashionable design that I found comfortable to wear 24/7, even at night. It comes in 40mm and 44mm wrist sizes with a graphite or silver finish. I tested the grey silicone sport band but you can swap it out for a pop of colour. It felt comfortable against my skin and I had no rubbing or irritation (some Garmin straps can cause silicone burn). My only complaint was the tuck-under fastening, which requires an awkward pinch to attach. This smartwatch adopts the Galaxy Watch Ultra's 'squircle' design (Samsung's words, not mine), putting a brilliantly bright, vibrant and responsive circular touchscreen on top of a square 'cushion' design, with a low-profile optical heart rate sensor that helps improve the overall comfort. The result is a smartwatch that I found comparatively thin, light and more comfortable on my wrist compared to bigger Garmin watches. Activity and movement metrics Score: 8/10 The Galaxy Watch 8 tracks more than 100 sports with a focus on running, cycling, swimming and walking or hiking. It has a 'health heart' monitor that challenges you to log enough steps, active minutes and calories to complete your 'heart'. I ran and hiked over 100 miles over multiple workouts and was impressed by the accuracy of its tracking when I compared it to other devices. The GPS was often slow to link up, but it mainly matched my Garmin Forerunner 970 for overall distances. It clocked 13.2 miles when I ran a half-marathon, while my Garmin measured 13.13 miles. The heart rate data was proved reliable. My Garmin HRM 600 chest strap logged a 105bpm average and 159bpm max, while Samsung's optical sensor clocked 106bpm and 159bpm, respectively on the same run. Step tracking was a bit more topsy-turvy, not quite catching my different stages, while Samsung's step counts were often more than 2,000 steps higher or lower than the Forerunner 970. Sleep and recovery tracking Score: 7/10 Sleep tracking gives you a nightly sleep score, sleep duration information and a breakdown of your sleep stages. It also monitors blood oxygen levels, skin temperature and nightly heart rate. I tested this against the Garmin Forerunner 970 and an EightSleep Pod mattress. Samsung's sleep quality readings and durations sometimes matched the Garmin and smart mattress, but were sometimes an hour off. The Watch 8 was often more optimistic with my sleep quality score, too. I also found Samsung's blood oxygen ranges sometimes provided readings from 78 to 100 per cent, which is incredibly broad. The recovery scores were hit and miss, too. One morning, Samsung gave me a 68 Energy Score because of an 'elevated overnight heart rate', while Garmin suggested I had hit '100 prime readiness'. My own perceptions had me closer to Garmin than Samsung and my tests did little to alleviate my scepticism when it comes to the reliability of these scores. Lifestyle and wellness features Score: 9/10 The Watch 8 gives you electrocardiogram (ECG) heart rate and blood pressure readings, though you'll need some calibration using a regular blood pressure cuff and you need to have a Samsung phone to hand. There's a body composition analysis to estimate how much fat and muscle you're carrying, monthly cycle tracking, plus a vascular load readout that monitors blood vessel strain over time. You can also measure stress, do journal-style mood check-ins and manually track food and water intake. One intriguing new tool is the antioxidant index. This uses sensors to reveal if you're getting your recommended daily amount of fruit and vegetables to help boost your antioxidant levels. These are molecules that can help fight off health conditions like cancer and diabetes. But in practice (and despite eating a lot of fruit and veg) my readings regularly came up 'low' even when I significantly upped my intake. Technical specifications The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 was launched alongside the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic. If you're looking for a more traditional style of smartwatch with a similar suite of features, it's definitely an alternative to consider. Should you buy the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8? The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 is a highly capable smartwatch with a mixture of simple and serious health and fitness tools. Runners, cyclists and swimmers will find it a competent sports tracker, though it lacks the advanced tools you get from Garmin and Coros. The one-and-a-half-day battery life also falls short of the month-long staying power of some dedicated sports watches. If you already own a Samsung phone and want a fashionable smartwatch that's comfortable to wear, is a comprehensive health and fitness tracker, the Galaxy Watch 8 is one of the best options available. Yes, if: You need an easy-to-use fitness companion for your smartphone You're a Samsung or Android phone user You're a runner or a hiker No, if: You use an iPhone You want a smartwatch or fitness tracker with a week-long battery life You want advanced training metrics for running, cycling and other sports Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 FAQs What are the biggest new health and AI features of the Galaxy Watch 8? The standout new health features include a readiness-style energy score that crunches sleep, activity, heart rate and other metrics to reflect how prepared your body is for activity or recovery. There's an antioxidant index that uses sensors to estimate oxidative stress levels in your body. Those same sensors serve up body composition insights for body fat and muscle. A vascular load tool monitors blood vessel strain over time. Is the Galaxy Watch 8 waterproof? The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 is waterproof. It carries a water rating of 5ATM, which means it can handle being submerged up to 50 metres. What are the differences between the Galaxy Watch 8 and the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic? The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 was released alongside a new Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic. The Classic model has a more traditional look with a physical rotating watch face bezel and stainless steel case. The Watch 8 is aluminium, and the Classic comes in large sizes with 43mm and 47mm options. When was the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 released? The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 was released in July 2025, alongside a new Galaxy Watch 8 Classic and a pair of foldable smartphones: the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Fold 7.
