Artificial intelligence (AI) continues to be the most important thing happening in tech‚ including smartphones. There's increased talk about on-device AI capabilities for mobile devices‚ as phones are powerful enough to run some generative AI features locally without connecting to the cloud.  You'll need a high-end or flagship handset for on-device AI. But even then‚ you might not actually get that sort of generative AI experience. Sadly‚ the Pixel 8 is the best example of that.  It's a Google phone that runs Google's optimized version of Android. It's one of the best Android devices in town. Yet its hardware has limitations that make it incompatible with Gemini Nano. Google said so.  Gemini Nano is Google's smallest large language model and the one that can run AI features on-device. You might not be a Pixel phone buyer‚ but this revelation is important. It might impact your next Android device purchase if you want it to support on-device AI. Continue reading...

With the M3 MacBook Air now available at physical and online Apple Stores‚ customers will get at least six exclusive features with this new laptop‚ which Apple calls the best computer for AI. Although it's up to you to decide if the M3 MacBook Air is worth it‚ some experts have already reviewed this product and praised its form factor‚ processor‚ and battery life. That said‚ if you're into buying a new M3 MacBook Air‚ these are six features that aren't available on older models: New processor: The M3 processor is up to 60 percent faster than the model with the M1 chip and up to 13x faster than the fastest Intel-based MacBook Air. Although it's a small spec bump compared to the M2 chip‚ there's yet another feature that could be worth an upgrade. Hardware-accelerated ray tracing: Like the M3 MacBook Pro and the iPhone 15 Pro‚ Apple is adding hardware-accelerated ray tracing‚ which is great for gaming and 3D modeling. Reduced fingerprints: The popular midnight color of the 15-inch M2 MacBook Air is back for the M3 models‚ this time with a new anodization seal to reduce fingerprints. Reviewers say this is one of the best features of the M3 MacBook Air Image source: Christian de Looper for BGR Support for two external displays: While older base model Apple Silicon Macs didn’t support more than one external display‚ Apple says the M3 MacBook Air works with up to two external monitors as long as the MacBook lid is closed. This will also come to the M3 MacBook Pro in a future software update Improved audio experience: Voice Isolation and Wide Spectrum microphone modes bring enhanced voice clarity in audio and video calls. Apple says this is an improvement over the previous version. Wi-Fi 6E support: Apple upgraded the Wi-Fi technology in the M3 MacBook Air. You can get better download and upload speeds if you have a newer Wi-Fi modem. Wrap up These are six exclusive features available with the M3 MacBook Air. BGR will let you know if we learn more tidbits about this product. We're also waiting for the OLED iPad Pro and iPad Air. It's possible that Apple is readying their release for later this month.

AirPods are awesome. I use AirPods Pro myself sometimes‚ and I've been using them regularly for years. There are also so many great AirPods deals available right now‚ so it's not a bad time to pick up a pair if you've been thinking about it. But if you're looking for the best possible value on Apple headphones right now‚ you should check out Beats earbuds instead. Here's a perfect example: Check out Beats Studio Buds instead of entry-level AirPods. They're both priced at around $100 at the moment‚ yet the Beats model gives you sound isolation thanks to silicon ear tips‚ deeper bass‚ and even active noise cancellation. Or‚ you can opt for Beats Studio+‚ which comes in that badass transparent colorway. There are other options too‚ plus great-sounding over-ear headphones that cost waaaaaay less than AirPods Max. Yet you still get all the awesome integration features with iPhones and iPads since Beats are still made by Apple.

I have Apple's AirPods Pro ANC earbuds‚ and they're still going strong after several years. I like AirPods Pro well enough‚ and the noise cancelling feature is great. But I almost never use them to listen to music. Instead‚ I use them for phone calls‚ zoom meetings‚ and a few other things. Truth be told‚ the sound quality of AirPods Pro really isn't that impressive‚ in my opinion. For $249‚ they should have much fuller sound and better bass response. That's why I ditched my AirPods Pro for these awesome Bowers &; Wilkins earbuds when it comes to music‚ but they're way more expensive than Beats. Also‚ many iPhone users out there prefer to stick with an Apple product for the cool. If you agree and you want Apple earbuds that crank up the bass‚ definitely take advantage of Amazon's big sale on Beats earbuds. Beats Studio Buds - True Wireless Noise Cancelling Earbuds - Compatible with Apple &; Android‚ B… Price: $99.95 You Save: $50.00 (33%) Buy Now Prices start at $99.95 for the Beats Studio Buds‚ which are wonderfully compact earbuds with no stems. That's about the same price as entry-level AirPods while they're discounted‚ but Beats Studio Buds are so much better. The sound quality is improved‚ the silicon ear tips provide sound isolation‚ and you also get active noise cancelling in Beats Studio Buds. I would never choose entry-level AirPods over these impressive ANC Beats. Beats Fit Pro - True Wireless Noise Cancelling Earbuds - Apple H1 Headphone Chip‚ Compatible wi… Price: $159.95 (reg. $200) You Save: $39.96 (20%) Buy Now Beats Powerbeats Pro Wireless Earbuds - Apple H1 Headphone Chip‚ Class 1 Bluetooth Headphones‚… Price: $179.95 (reg. $250) You Save: $70.00 (28%) Buy Now If you want a big upgrade‚ newer Beats Fit Pro earbuds are also on sale. They're normally $200‚ but Amazon is offering them in every colorway for just $159.95. Beats Fit Pro feature a comfortable new design and Apple's H1 wireless chip. You also get up to 24 hours of listening time‚ including the charging case. Or‚ if you prefer an ear hook design‚ you can get Powerbeats Pro instead for $20 more. They retail for $250‚ so that's a nice big discount. Personally‚ however‚ I would highly recommend the newer Beats Fit Pro model over Powerbeats Pro. I've tried both‚ and I think the newer model is a big improvement. Beats Studio Buds + | True Wireless Noise Cancelling Earbuds‚ Enhanced Apple &; Android Compatib… Price: $129.95 (reg. $170) You Save: $40.00 (24%) Buy Now Beats Studio Pro - Wireless Bluetooth Noise Cancelling Headphones - Personalized Spatial Audio‚… Price: $199.95 (reg. $350) You Save: $150.04 (43%) Buy Now Those are all great deals‚ but you'll save even more if you want the latest and greatest new headphones and earbuds from Beats. Beats Studio Buds+ are the best earphones that have ever been released by the company. You can read all about them in our Beats Studio Buds+ review. They offer excellent sound quality‚ battery life you won't believe‚ and a comfortable fit. Plus‚ the transparent colorway is awesome! These sleek earbuds retail for $170‚ but Amazon is offering Beats Studio Buds+ for just $129.95 right now‚ thanks to a new discount. That's the best price I've seen since the holidays last year. Or‚ if you want the best new over-ear headphones that Beats makes‚ look no further than the Beats Studio Pro headphones. They retail for $349.99‚ but you can save $120 if you pick up a pair on sale for $199.95. Read our Beats Studio Pro headphones review to learn more about Beats' newest and most impressive over-ear noise cancelling headphones.
