The Verge’s news reporter, Jay Peters, is hands-on with Meta’s new Ray-Ban Meta Gen 2 glasses.
The Verge· 2025-09-18 00:08
I'm wearing the Rayban Meta Gen 2 glasses. They have same specs as the Oakley Meta Housen glasses that launched earlier this year. That means they have a 3K camera.They have slightly better battery life. Uh but overall, they're not that different from the Gen One Ray-B band Metas, just a slight bump up. They come in new colors like a nice purple that V is very, very excited about.The new glasses are available today and they cost $379. ...
The iPhone 17 lineup has a lot of new updates but the selfie camera felt the most substantial.
The Verge· 2025-09-17 20:44
The best new feature across Apple's iPhone 17 lineup this year might actually be the selfie camera. It's an 18 megapixel square format sensor. So when you rotate to landscape orientation, you get a higher resolution image than with the previous rectangular camera sensor.Better yet, it offers center stage to automatically zoom in and out or rotate from portrait to landscape automatically when there are enough people in the frame. You don't have to move the phone at all because it happens on the sensor itself ...

Victoria Song joins us on The Vergecast to talk about the AirPods Pro 3 and their upgraded fit.
The Verge· 2025-09-17 16:23
By and large, the most common complaint that I've ever heard about AirPods from people who are tech journalists, from people who are normal people, from just anyone is the fit, right. Cuz either you are blessed with ears that the AirPods fit into. And that's true across the regular AirPods range or the Pro range, or you're you're just not you're just not blessed with the the the ear canal for for an AirPod.And you know, you take the AirPods Pro 3 out of the case. The shape is definitely different. The AirPo ...
The third-gen SE got a massive, wide-ranging glow-up. #vergecast
The Verge· 2025-09-17 15:41
Our suspicions from last week have been confirmed, which is that the watch SE3 is the watch most people should buy. Tell me why you landed there. >> It's the star.It has the biggest upgrade from the last generation to the next. So, the difference between it and a series watch is almost non-existent depending on what are the things that you care about. >> In terms of the new things on the SE, I want you to rank four features for me in terms of how big a deal they are.Uh, the four features are fast charging, ...
The Verge’s Allison Johnson joins us on The Vergecast to discuss her time with the iPhone Air.
The Verge· 2025-09-17 14:35
battery life is not super great on the Air. We sort of anticipated that. It's not a disaster, but there's the MagSafe battery pack that Apple kind of reintroduced like specifically for the Air.So, the days where I went really hard on the battery, had like a ton of, you know, more than 5 hours of screen on time. I was in the back of an Uber for an hour. I was getting to that 20% by dinner time.And that was stressing me out. And I was like, do I put the battery pack. Do I charge it.Do I leave the battery pack ...
We compare the iPhone 17 Pro's 40x zoom to the Pixel 10 camera's 100x zoom.
The Verge· 2025-09-17 12:01
Would you rather have a 100 time zoom on the Google Pixel 10 Pro or 40 time zoom on the iPhone 17 Pro. We're going to take a look and see which one is better. So, here's a 40x photo with the iPhone and the same subject at 100 time zoom with the Pixel. Here's another one from the iPhone and the Pixel.Can see a difference here. iPhone is using traditional digital zoom. It's just upscaling an image and filling in the gaps with machine learning.Pixel is doing the same thing except that it's using generative AI ...
iPhone 17 Pro vs. iPhone Air review: What are you willing to give up?
The Verge· 2025-09-17 12:00
A high-end phone weighs a little more than 200 g. It has three cameras, maybe even more, and a huge screen, massive battery, and a powerful processor. It's heavy, and it's way too big to really fit into any of your pockets.But phones weren't always like that. The one you had maybe 12 or 13 years ago, it had a screen half that size, only one camera, and it was light and small enough to slip into any pocket. It was awesome.So, how did we get here where your options are big or bigger. Has all the extra stuff c ...

If you find yourself starting a sentence with here's what chat GPT said or I asked Claude or according to Gemini you are the worst and I don't like you and you what the end of your sentence is not going to be interesting to me. I asked Chad GPT is not the beginning of a good story and everybody should stop doing it please on the internet and in real life. I would 100% agree. I think Jake will too. I'm like I it doesn't matter at all. it it has no bearing on anything. I feel crazy when people say that to me ...
Google pulls Pixel 10’s Daily Hub #Vergecast
The Verge· 2025-09-12 18:00
Google released this thing called the daily hub with the Pixel 10. You're supposed to do AI to like bring all of your stuff together calendar events. It's basically like the just Google discover feed time x times 10, I would say.Uh except it turns out it didn't work and Google pulled it already. Okay. On one hand, I think this is this feature is totally inconsequential and doesn't matter. And on the other hand, I think this is completely gling, right.This is a brand new feature that they sold the phone with ...
