    Razer’s new white translucent gaming accessories are its best looking yet.

    Razer is announcing a new Phantom White Collection of translucent gaming accessories. The see-through white peripherals are a follow-up to the original Phantom Collection, which was very green — very Razer.

    These white versions look much better to my eyes, toning down the overall Razer-ness of it all. At least, as much as RGB-ified gamer lights can be “toned down.”

    Apple’s polishing cloth is M5-ready.

    Apple was prepared this time for its M5 chip launch in the new MacBook Pro and iPad Pro, as it promptly included the new devices in its polishing cloth compatibility list. We got a bit of a scare last month when it took a couple days for iPhone 17 compatibility.
