The Morning After The Morning After Engadget

Bose is prepared to develop an entirely new design if the existing wireless earbuds are not working for you. These wireless Sport Open Earbuds won't fit inside your ear canal. They sit above your ear canal, allowing you to hear the music and still be able to hear the sounds around you.



Although the design is a bit awkward, Bose claims that they will stay in place in any weather. They also boast loud, clear audio that you can hear without having to blast it to everyone. I'll have to read reviews from experts in the field before I can be confident in the product. However, it is worth looking into a headset that will fit better.

'Minecraft Earth' will close on June 30th

The next-generation Tile tracker could utilize ultrawideband technology



AR could be used to track it. We're still waiting for dedicated tracker tags from Apple and Samsung, but Tile is trying to keep its edge. According to TechCrunch Tile is currently working on an application that uses ultra-wideband (UWB) technology, instead of Bluetooth to help find lost objects. UWB has many advantages over Bluetooth. Its high-frequency waves transmit spatial and direction data which make it more precise in locating tags and devices. The latest iPhones and Samsung's Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and Galaxy Z Fold 2, pack UWB functionality already. Continue reading.
