JBL Live Buds 3 Boasts a Color Screen on the Case So You Can Leave the Phone in Your Pocket

JBL Live Buds 3 Earbuds Screen Charging Case
Most charging cases only hold a charge and a pair of buds. JBL Live Buds 3, priced at $129.95 (was $200), add a 1.45-inch color touchscreen that turns the case into a control panel you can use with a laptop, tablet, TV, or phone without opening an app. Swipe to play, pause, or skip, raise or lower volume, flip between adaptive noise cancelling, Ambient Aware, and TalkThru, pick an equalizer preset, or set spatial sound for music, movies, or games. Incoming texts and call alerts can flash across the same display, battery levels for both buds and the case sit along the top, and you can load a photo from your phone as a lock wallpaper. A lanyard loop on the case makes it easier to keep that little screen within reach.

Muse Charm Puts Meta’s New AI Agent on a Keychain You Can Talk To

By

Meta Muse Charm AI Agent Wearable
Mark Zuckerberg closed Meta Connect 2026 with a gadget small enough to clip to a bag. On September 23 in Menlo Park he held up a puck about the size of an AirPods case, tapped a fingerprint sensor in the corner, and started a conversation with Muse without unlocking a phone or opening an app. He called the unit Muse Charm and said Meta had packed the whole Muse experience, including the real-time voice model and the animated avatar, into something that stays on a keychain and is always ready to talk.

Tamura Lumitime Clock Digital 1970s No Electronics

Tamura Lumitime Clock Turns 1970s Mains Power Into Glowing Seven Segment Numbers With Gears and Contacts Alone

By

Tamura Lumitime Clock Digital 1970s No Electronics
Japanese company Tamura Electric sold the Lumitime as a stylish desk or wall clock throughout the mid to late 1970s, giving buyers the futuristic look of digital numerals when affordable LED and LCD panels were still dim, tiny, or simply not ready for living rooms. Mark Furneaux opened one of these machines and found no counters, no decoder chips, and no real-time clock module. A synchronous motor tied directly to the 60 hertz household line supplies both power and timing, spinning at a fixed rate so the clock stays accurate as long as the grid stays stable.

Nikon Z5IIC Leaves the Viewfinder Off and Brings Full Frame Down to Fourteen Hundred Dollars

By

Nikon Z5IIC Camera Launch
Nikon used the same 24.5-megapixel backside-illuminated full-frame sensor and EXPEED 7 processor found in the Z5II, then cut the electronic viewfinder so the body could sit flatter, weigh less, and sell for $1,399.95. That price is $450 under the current Z5II list, and a kit with the NIKKOR Z 24-50mm f/4-6.3 lands at $1,699.95. Shipping is set for mid-October, with pre-orders already open and B&H listing an October 15 date. Black and silver finishes are both available, the silver version pairing a light top plate with a dark body.

Bentley Torcal Debuts in London as Crewe’s First Fully Electric SUV

By

Bentley Torcal EV Reveal
London hosted Bentley’s first fully electric production car yesterday. Torcal joins Continental GT, Flying Spur and Bentayga as a fourth model line, a five meter SUV built, engineered and finished in Crewe for 2028 model year sales that begin next year. Long wheelbase, short overhangs and a proud front give it upright presence without the height of a Bentayga. Surfaces stay relatively clean so the rear haunches can do the talking, a shape designers call a resting beast.
