    SteelSeries launches new budget wireless cans.

    The $109.99 Arctis Nova 3 Wireless is now the company’s cheapest wireless headset. It supports every console, and basically anything else with a USB-C port, and has impressive fast-charging: 15 minutes plugged in gets you nine hours of game time. Like last year’s GameBuds it also supports the Arctis mobile app, with over 200 EQ presets for specific games.

    Nothing’s first flagship is a month away.

    We knew the Phone 3 was launching in July, but now we know exactly when: 1PM ET on July 1st, which is about as early in the month as we could have hoped for. Not long to wait now for what the company considers its first true flagship.

    Google wants to settle with shareholders worried about antitrust.

    The Financial Times reports that parent company Alphabet has proposed to spend $500 million over 10 years altering its compliance structure, in a bid to satisfy shareholders who’d sued over the company’s repeated exposure to antitrust investigations. A judge still needs to approve the settlement, which would see Google establish a new regulatory committee within its executive board among other changes.

    The lightest foldable yet.

    Earlier this year we oohed and ahhed over the thinnest foldable phone so far, and now it’s time for the lightest. Vivo product manager Han Boxiao released this clip that dramatically shows off how lightweight the upcoming X Fold 5 is, which leakers say will launch this month.

    I was impressed by the X Fold 3, the first foldable I used that felt like its camera came without compromises, so I’m excited to see its successor.

    Sky’s cheaper Glass TV is here.

    The Air was first teased alongside the launch of the Glass Gen 2 back in February, and it’ll go on sale in the UK from June 10th. Starting from £6/month it’s less than half price the Gen 2, but the 4K HDR screen isn’t as bright, and you don’t get seven-speaker Dolby Atmos audio. That might make it the better buy for anyone who already has a soundbar though.

    The Glass Air comes in 43-, 55-, and 65-inch models.

    Meta’s AI ads are coming next year.

    That’s according to The Wall Street Journal, which says fully automated AI ads are on the roadmap for 2026. Zuckerberg has already hinted at the plans, which will see advertisers provide an image of a product and set a budget, getting a full ad campaign in return. The AI will decide which Facebook and Instagram users to target, and offer personalization like changing the setting of an ad to match where the prospective customer lives.
