Copy editor Morgan Dreiss has severe ADHD and says they need to always be doing at least three things at once. The result is an average daily screen time of 18 hours and 55 minutes. According to a recent WIRED report, Dreiss is far from alone. For years, studies have warned about the effects of excessive screen time on our physical and mental health. Yet a growing number of people are pushing back on that narrative. Call them screenmaxxers. They are not trying to rack up hours on purpose, but they are on their screens pretty much all day, and…

Apple is finally stepping into the smart glasses space. For this, the company is asking an important question: Would you actually wear these outside? This is the most important thing, because this is where most smart glasses have historically fallen apart. Rather than locking itself into a single, safe design, Apple is reportedly exploring multiple frame styles for its first pair of AI glasses. And not minor tweaks either — we’re talking distinctly different silhouettes. There’s a bold, chunky rectangular option that leans into classic sunglasses territory. Then a slimmer, more understated rectangular design that feels a bit more executive-core.…

Apple’s upcoming smart glasses could sidestep one of the biggest issues facing the category – privacy concerns – by rethinking something as simple as the camera indicator light. According to a recent report by Bloomberg, the company is working on display-free smart glasses that focus on everyday functionality, but with a design approach that may make them feel less intrusive than current offerings. The device, internally codenamed N50, is expected to arrive around 2026 or 2027 and will function more like a companion to the iPhone than a standalone augmented reality system. Instead of a display, the glasses will rely…

At some point in 2025, Windows stopped feeling like an operating system and started feeling like a demo for AI. Open Notepad to jot something down, and there it was, nudging you to summarize. Fire up Edge, and Copilot would politely wave from the sidebar. Even apps like Microsoft Paint began to feel different, not because they got simpler, but because they suddenly wanted to generate, edit, and enhance images for you. Microsoft wasn’t just adding AI, it was threading it into every corner of the experience. And for a while, that felt exciting. Then it started to feel… a…

So far, we’ve seen companies either release new smartphones at higher prices than their predecessors or hike prices a few months after launch, of course, due to the ongoing memory crisis. However, Samsung has increased the price of a device that’s about to be replaced in a couple of months. The Galaxy Z Fold 7, launched in July 2025, has received a quiet yet firm price hike in the United States. Even though the baseline variant with 256GB of storage holds steady at $2,000, the 512GB variant now costs $2,200, up $80 from the original price of $2,120.  Isn’t the…

Qualcomm’s Snapdragon chips have long been the popular choice in the gaming handheld world, but OnePlus appears to be reading and learning from a different playbook.  A fresh leak from the Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station suggests that the rumored OnePlus gaming handheld could ship with a special version of the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 chipset.  Why did OnePlus choose Dimensity over Snapdragon? Specifically, it’s the chip’s ARM Mali G1-Ultra MC12 GPU that could be tweaked to offer “console-level” gaming performance, without any overclocking. The result, in terms of graphical performance, resembles a “mini Dimensity 9600,” according to the tipster.  Now,…

When it comes to smart glasses, Apple seems to be taking the road less traveled. While others have leaned on big-name eyewear brands to make their tech look fashionable, Apple appears ready to do what it does best: keep everything in-house and call it a day. Competitors have played it smart by teaming up with established eyewear giants. It makes sense. If you’re putting a camera on someone’s face, you might as well make sure it looks like something they’d already wear. Apple, however, doesn’t seem interested in that route. Instead of partnering with brands like Ray-Ban or Oakley, the company…

For CTOs and IT Directors, the decision to implement a workplace platform isn’t just about the UI—it’s about the underlying architecture. How does it handle data? How does it scale? How does it integrate with the existing security posture? To build a truly “future-proof” digital workplace, the technical foundation must be as robust as the features it supports. 1. API-First Design The hallmark of a modern workplace platform is its ability to “talk” to other software. An API-first architecture ensures that as your company adds new specialized tools (like a new CRM or an AI-writing assistant), your core platform can…
