Apple had to walk the tightrope of announcing both a stripped back iPhone Air and a souped up iPhone 17 Pro yesterday. If you were paying close attention, you might have come away just a little confused.

After Google donned its hot dog suit in court to complain that the open web is in decline, one commenter argues that’s where we see Big Tech’s true colors:

Samsung earned plaudits for its super-slim Z Fold 7, but it’s not done yet. Korea’s ET News reports it plans two Folds next year, with one squatter and wider, with a square screen inside. No doubt it’s pure coincidence that the foldable iPhone is rumored to be a similar shape.

The Pocket Scion isn’t just a rad portable synthesizer that creates soundscapes from organic matter (but it is that!) — it’s a vision of a better world, where the tech industry is a little less evil, and a lot more weird.

Just days after Google leaked its own new Nest Doorbell and Cams with Gemini, a Redditor spotted all three new products in the wild at Home Depot. 9to5Google points out that stock arriving so early probably means they’ll go on sale immediately after the October 1st launch.
