Apple has launched the Airpods Max 2, an improved version of its flagship, over-the-ear headphones.
Rabbit-Labs Flipper Zero ESP32-C5 Multi-Board: CC1101, GPS & Dual-Band Wi-Fi 6 Features
Designed by Rabbit-Labs EU, the Flipper Zero ESP32-C5 multi-board is an expansion board for the Flipper Zero built around the ESP32-C5 dual-band Wi-Fi 6 (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) microcontroller. The board also features a TI CC1101 sub-GHz transceiver, a GPS module, an SD card slot, and a USB-C port for power and programming. Last month, we wrote about the ESP32 Marauder 5G Apex 5 module, another ESP32-C5-based add-on for the Flipper Zero that comes with dual-band Wi-Fi 6, two sub-GHz radios, an NRF24 radio, and a built-in GPS module, which makes it quite bulky, to say the least. Compared to that, Rabbit Labs’ multi-board can be considered a stripped-down, simpler alternative, with a more compact design and straightforward setup. ESP32-C5 multi-board specifications: Main module â ESP32-C5-WROOM-1U SoC â Espressif Systems ESP32-C5 CPU Single-core 32-bit RISC-V processor @ up to 240 MHz Low-power RISC-V core @ 40 MHz acting as the […]

Apple Discreetly Unveils AirPods Max 2
The successor to its premium headphones cost $549 and are launching with enhanced active noise cancellation, the H2 chip, live translation, better sound quality, and more.
This is not a digital fly
Last week, a few posts about a so-called virtual “embodied fly” tore through X, boosted by AI hype accounts and excited commenters who didn’t seem to understand what it was they were excited about. The videos came from San Francisco-based Eon Systems, which says it’s working toward “digital human intelligence” and claims it wants to […]

Comparing AMOLED and PMOLED Screens: Essential Distinctions Clarified
may not be the most dependable TVs available regarding their longevity, yet their exceptional contrast and extensive color range still place them far above any other option.
The OLED in OLED TVs signifies organic light-emitting diodes, meaning they utilize individual carbon-based pixels rather than a combined backlight. This allows each pixel to be activated and deactivated independently without influencing the others on the display. The relatively straightforward acronym OLED isn’t the only version, though; terms like AMOLED and PMOLED frequently arise, particularly in the context of smartphones or smaller electronic devices.
AMOLED denotes Active-Matrix OLED, while PMOLED refers to Passive-Matrix OLED. What’s the distinction between AMOLED and PMOLED, and why do brands favor AMOLED more frequently? As implied by the name, the technology in AMOLED actively regulates the pixels through dedicated switches located in each pixel, whereas PMOLED illuminates pixels by rapidly pulsing them before shutting them off. A PMOLED screen lacks switches in every pixel, which means entire rows of pixels are controlled simultaneously, rather than individually. Consequently, AMOLEDs offer superior visuals and a significantly quicker refresh rate, while PMOLEDs are less expensive to produce and better suited for smaller devices.

Comparison of 120Hz and 144Hz Television Refresh Rates
Mini-LED televisions and QLED televisions. Don’t overlook the OLED televisions, QD-OLED televisions, and the emerging “Micro RGB TVs” that are being presented as the upcoming standard. However, it’s not solely the panel technology that undergoes updates every few years. There have also been 120Hz televisions and 144Hz televisions, with the latter notably gaining popularity in recent times.
All leading smart TV manufacturers, including LG and Samsung as well as Hisense and TCL, today offer at least one 144Hz television in their lineup. That being said, the somewhat older 120Hz televisions continue to be a favored option among consumers. But why do terms like 120Hz and 144Hz matter for a television, and is there a significant distinction in TVs that advertise these specifications? Let’s explore.
What are 60Hz, 120Hz, or 144Hz?
