Today, Sonos posted a video to its social media channels and wrote “there’s a lot of noise about the next Sonos launch.” It also launched this website where customers can “hear from the source” about new hardware. (The video used in the clip already appeared in a prior teaser for the Sub Mini, so I wouldn’t read into that much.)

Know more about upcoming Sonos devices? I’m always a message away on Signal at (845) 445-8455.

The model supports 38 languages across over 180 countries and territories worldwide, and Google says its free access tier is “suitable for most app development needs.” A new Gemini Pro Vision endpoint allows for both text and image input compared to the text-only prompts that were available last week.

Google has said it expects to start occupying the renovated Thompson Center in 2026, with construction activity set to begin early next year.

The company’s real estate ambitions haven’t fared so well elsewhere: last month, Google scrapped a $15 billion deal to build out four major campuses across Silicon Valley.

It still costs the same $15.99 per month that you’d pay anywhere else, but the key benefit is that you can stream Max shows and movies right from YouTube itself after subscribing — no need to open the Max app anymore.

I don’t know about you, but I can’t imagine that Epigram would’ve had quite the same impact. And Textagram sounds a little too similar to Telegram.

Let’s all be glad that the marketing team eventually moved away from the very forced “-gram” suffix.

How about that, Instagram? Does this look completely silly? Well, sure. But it works. It’s a fullscreen Instagram app for a tablet. Victory is mine.

I’m certain there are better examples of where this might be useful.
