The star of Meta Connect 2025 is Meta's new Ray-Ban-branded Display AI glasses, which include a heads-up display element to overlay info on the wearer's view. Meta's "neural wristband", which Zuckerberg described as "the next chapter in the exciting story of the history of computing," uses The end result is a whole new way of interacting with the digital environment, which Meta's hoping will become the foundation for its future AR and VR projects.
Meta is making it easier to stream movies and TV shows on your Quest headset. During its Meta Connect keynote on Wednesday, the company announced that it's rolling out a Horizon TV hub with access to streaming apps like Prime Video, Peacock, Twitch, and - finally - Disney Plus, Hulu, and ESPN. The image shared by Meta shows content recommendations and streaming apps lined up on the homepage, along with tabs to switch between movies, TV shows, "immersive" experiences, sports, music, and your watchlist.

Finding your keys shouldn't feel like a treasure hunt, and thankfully, Chipolo gets it. The Slovenian brand, born from a group of friends tired of losing their belongings, has been creating colorful item finders since 2013. Their latest collaboration with London design studio BLOND has completely transformed their approach to tracker design. After teaming up with BLOND in 2022, Chipolo reimagined its flagship Loop and Card trackers, moving beyond simple tech gadgets into genuine lifestyle accessories.
While we're in that area of the Play Store on Android, make yourself a mental note: Right in that same section lurks an incredibly useful way to find a full list of every app you've ever installed that isn't already present on your current device. It's a fantastic way to rediscover something you'd installed before - whether weeks ago or even years in the past - and get it back on your current device without any brain-exhausting excavation.
One of the most exciting parts of collecting Jellycats is when you add new stuffed animals to the group. When you have a lot of Jellycats, you need to find a cute way to store your plushies. And even if you just have one stuffed animal (or cheese), chances are, you want it to be the star of your space.
vivo launched the V60 in August, and now it's allegedly readying the V60e to complement it in its roster. Today, some live hands-on images purportedly showing the upcoming V60e have been outed along with some of its specs. vivo V60 5G The V60e is said to arrive in India in Noble Gold and Elite Purple colorways. Obviously, the leaked images show the latter.
Logitech's next flagship wireless gaming mouse is ditching mechanical switches for an analog system equipped with haptics actuators to simulate the feeling of a click. The mouse is called the Pro X2 Superstrike, and it's coming early next year for $179.99. The inductive analog system (which Logitech calls Haptic Inductive Trigger System, or HITS) boasts a small 0.6mm travel per main button. They're supposed to let players click faster than ever thanks to their low latency - Logitech claims it improves latency by up to 30 milliseconds -
Samsung announced its Galaxy A17 last month, and we now have a listing for the 4G variant from a retailer in Kenya. The 4G model looks exactly like its 5G sibling and shares most of the same specs, with the main exception being the Helio G99 chipset at the helm. Galaxy A17 4G features a 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display with FHD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate, just like the 5G model.
I used to struggle when shopping for a new computer. Over time, I learned to narrow things down to what I call the "performance trifecta" -- three main components you should be mindful of when buying a laptop or desktop: processor, storage drive, and RAM. The first two are pretty easy to figure out. A good processor ensures that a computer performs well, and a lot of local storage means you'll have plenty of room for all your files.
I have bad news for ecosystem straddlers who use Google Nest products in their smart homes but rely on iPhones and Apple Home for control: the much-loved Starling Home Hub has been discontinued. In a message on its website, Starling said it can no longer manufacture the hub due to "rapidly rising costs of doing business for small US-based product companies like us (most significantly, tariffs the US government charges us to obtain the components we need to build our product)."
"There is a lot of bad hardware out there," writes Chen, "and there are a lot of compatibility hacks to deal with it." There's hardware that spouts nonsense or does things that it says it absolutely won't (Chen cites the example of a USB device that drew more power than it promised it would.) Still, the vast majority can be dealt with behind the scenes with code that can repair or ignore corrupted values.
If you're like me, you probably head to Google's search engine on the web several times a day to get information on specific topics. But if you're working in Windows, that means you have to stop what you're doing, fire up your browser, go to Google's search site, and then enter your query. Wouldn't it be quicker and easier if you could do all of that without launching your browser? Well, now you can.
Unlike Sony's robotic dog Aibo that can wander around your home, Moflin can't get around on its own. Its movements are limited to its head that can rotate from side to side and tilt up and down which the robot uses to express simulated emotions and affection. It's designed to be held and cuddled to provide "a calming presence" and "quiet reassurance," according to Casio. But Moflin isn't completely silent.
The conference kicks off Wednesday, September 17, at 5 p.m. PT / 8 p.m. ET, with a keynote speech from Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg. According to Meta, you can watch as Zuckerberg "shares the latest on AI glasses and lays out Meta's vision for artificial intelligence and the metaverse." Meta should be announcing AI-powered smart glasses, internally codenamed Hypernova, CNBC reports. The glasses are rumored to retail for $800 and have speakers, microphones, and a camera.
There was a time when adults who owned collections of stuffed toys were relatively uncommon, weird even. All that has changed recently: the rise in popularity of toys such as Squishmallows and Jellycat Amuseables has been linked to the growing kidult market (adults buying toys for themselves) which accounted for almost 30% of toy sales last year. On the whole, cuddly toys are something people keep at home, on their beds or on display shelves.
Taking photos may become even easier with the introduction of the AI Camera, a conceptual design by Inspire Curve that reimagines the creative process. Moving beyond traditional manual settings, this device leverages advanced artificial intelligence to offer a more intuitive and seamless experience for photographers of all skill levels. By automating complex tasks, the AI Camera empowers users to focus on composition and artistic vision rather than getting bogged down by technical adjustments.
I regularly restart my Pixel 9 Pro, and there's a good reason for that. Actually, there are several reasons why I regularly restart my phone (weekly -- at least). Here's a short list for you to ponder: Improves performance by clearing temporary caches. Enhances security by disrupting possible cyberattacks and clearing possible malware stored in memory. Resolves issues such as if your phone has slowed down, is getting hot, apps are crashing, and you're having connectivity issues, a restart often will fix those issues.
Although it's still the number one destination in the country to see weird stuff that the Victorians taxidermied, the Natural History Museum has been quietly getting into cutting edge technology in recent years, with the launch of its Visions of Nature AR experience and immersive film Our Story with David Attenborough. Now it takes a further step into the 21st century via a new collaboration with the popular international virtual gaming chain Sandbox VR (which has three branches in London).
A soundbar is a must-have to accompany your TV -- your TV's speakers won't cut it. Even if you think you don't need one, you'll never go back once you get one. Trust me. However, a soundbar only gets better when it has rear speakers and a subwoofer working alongside it. Although some enthusiasts may encourage you to assemble your own home theater, you can buy one in a box.
It's hard to convince anyone to spend over a thousand dollars on a soundbar system. Ask a home theater nerd or Redditor, and they'll say spending real cash on anything other than a receiver and dedicated speakers and subwoofer is a fool's errand. As an A/V reviewer, I see this as a hilariously case of gatekeeping. These arguments are predicated on the fact that everyone has the room, know-how, and desire to deal with cables, speakers, and the associated setup.
Look, delays happen. The Analogue 3D, a console made to display N64 games in 4K, has had its release window pushed multiple times. That frustrated me for a while because I wanted to get my hands on 8BitDo's slick 64 Bluetooth controller that was made to go along with the console. Its release was likely planned to coincide with the console, but the controller finally launched just a couple months ago.
Video game files sizes have gotten ridiculous. As time goes on, they continue to balloon to astronomical levels that are frankly unreasonable. This is especially common among western AAA developers. Just this year, we saw Oblivion: Remastered reach a size of over 120GB. I don't even want to think about just how much space Grand Theft Auto VI is going to take up.
The latest report on the global status of 5G non-terrestrial, networks (NTN) and satellite connectivity from the GSA has revealed that satellite connectivity is moving from niche to mainstream, whether in rural broadband or direct-to-cell use cases, with nearly 200 publicly announced operator-satellite partnerships in almost 100 countries and territories - of these, 34 operators have launched commercial services. The Non-terrestrial 5G networks and satellite
they are masterpieces of engineering, commanding prices that reflect their cutting-edge technology and craftsmanship. We looked at current online prices for a range of sniper rifles to bring you a list of the most expensive options available. These aren't necessarily the most expensive sniper rifles ever sold; they're the most expensive sniper rifles you could purchase right now. This article is listed in count-down style, so you'll find the most expensive rifle at the very end.
The Dragunov SVD is one of the more famous Russian-made sniper rifles that has been in the service of Russian Special Forces for more than half a century. Originally developed as a designated marksman rifle, it entered service in the early 1960s, adding some modern upgrades while retaining its rugged reputation over the years. Even with the arrival of newer sniper systems, the SVD continues to see widespread use among Russian Special Forces.
