Previously, she was a writer and editor at MUO.We’ve been hearing rumors about Apple’s plan to launch a new version of its Vision Pro headset for months, and now a new filing with the Federal Communications Commission seemingly confirms the company’s work on the new device. In a filing spotted by MacRumors, Apple includes a diagram of a “Head Mounted Device” that looks a lot like a Vision Pro headset.The details included in the filing are still slim, but it lists the upcoming headset under model number A3416 and says it will come with support for Wi-Fi 6, similar to the original Apple Vision Pro. In July, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reported that Apple could launch a new Vision Pro headset “as early as this year.” It’s rumored to come with a redesigned strap to combat head and neck pain, while code inadvertently shared by Apple indicates that it could have a more powerful M5 processor.In addition to an M5-equipped Vision Pro, Apple is reportedly working on a lighter and cheaper Vision “Air” set to launch in 2027, according to supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. The company is also rumored to be working on Ray-Ban Meta-like smart glasses with voice control and gesture recognition.Most Popular

3 ways I make NotebookLM my personal sidekick
NotebookLM is marketed as a research and notes companion, but honestly, I don’t quite use it the way Google had intended. The “official” pitch is that you upload documents, and it helps you pull insights and keep track of sources. This is undoubtedly useful for things like academic work, but it can also get boring if that’s all you use it for. Source: xda-developers.com … [Read More...]
I didn't know the Obsidian Reminder plugin existed, but it's exactly what I needed
I run my entire life out of my Obsidian vault, but until now, something has been missing. I've tried multiple to-do apps, but none of those really checked all the boxes — and then I stumbled across the Obsidian Reminder plugin. This small, simple plugin has become an essential part of my workflow. I already struggle to remember things — if it isn't written down, it doesn't exist — but with a … [Read More...]
Opera is bringing a huge wave of free AI tools to its browsers
A few days ago, Opera broke the news that my favorite AI browser was getting a general release. It was fantastic news for me, because when I gave their test build out and used it to remake the classic game of Snake, I had a blast experimenting with all the different things I could ask it to do.

4 cheap PC parts I’ll never buy again
Building a PC is an exciting rite of passage for any tech enthusiast. There's an overwhelming breadth of options available at every budget. However, this low barrier to entry is a double-edged sword. It’s incredibly tempting for a novice or first-time PC builder to look at a compatibility list and pair an upper-mid tier CPU and gaming GPU with an affordable $80 motherboard. I've been tempted too, … [Read More...]
I replaced WSL with a full Linux VM, and here’s why it's actually better
Windows Subsystem for Linux, or WSL, has been an incredibly welcome addition to Windows for those who enjoy developing and tinkering with Linux distributions. The lightweight, easy-to-setup nature of these instances is perfect for anyone looking to run Linux tools without needing to leave their primary OS. Once I started to use non-native packages and stepped outside of basic command-line tasks, I … [Read More...]
RGB is secretly the worst bloatware on your PC
If your PC features a lot of RGB lighting, chances are you've got software to manage it. While proprietary RGB software will give you complete control over your lighting, most RGB control software consumes hardware resources to run on a consistent basis. This is especially true of most OEMs' proprietary RGB management software, like Asus Armoury Crate, MSI Center, or Razer Synapse. Source: … [Read More...]
This cute open-source notes app killed Google Keep for me
Google Keep has been my go-to for jotting down quick ideas and making lists. It’s minimal, dead easy to navigate, and also just a tap away on my phone. I love it for its simplicity which allows me to quickly dump half-formed notes. But over time, I started to hit a ceiling. My notes became a messy scroll of colorful squares without folders or real structure. I also wasn’t a fan of my notes being … [Read More...]
The best smart rings for 2025
It’s getting increasingly difficult to say smart rings are just a niche inside the broader world of wearable technology. The raft of celebrities who are seen wearing them, the NBA’s use of Oura rings as an early warning system against COVID-19 and, last year, Samsung’s entry into the market has made them far more prominent in the minds of mainstream consumers. We’ve tested plenty of smart … [Read More...]
