Apple launched the Vision Pro in 2024 — a mixed reality headset that blends the digital and physical world. It uses high-resolution displays, eye tracking, and hand gestures to let users watch videos, work, and interact with 3D apps in a new way. Apple calls it a “spatial computer,” and it’s one of the most advanced headsets on the market. But it costs over $3,000, making it very expensive for most people. I think the Vision Pro looks super cool, but it feels more like a luxury toy than something people actually need. It’s amazing how you can open apps and videos in mid-air, but the price is way too high for students or regular families. I’d love to try one, but I think Apple should make a more affordable version if they want it to become popular.

The Humane AI Pin was released in 2024 as a new kind of wearable assistant. Instead of using a phone, users can clip this pin to their clothes and interact with it using voice, gestures, and a small projector. It connects to AI tools like ChatGPT and can answer questions, make calls, and translate speech. Some people think it’s the future of smartphones, while others say it’s too early and not very practical. I think the AI Pin is interesting but kind of unnecessary right now. It’s like a cool idea from a sci-fi movie, but I feel like most people will just keep using their phones. Maybe in the future it’ll be useful, but right now it seems like something tech fans would buy just to say they tried it.

In 2025, Samsung introduced the Galaxy Ring — a small smart ring that tracks your health. It monitors heart rate, sleep, and stress, and connects with the Samsung Health app. Unlike smartwatches, it’s very light and discreet. It’s part of a growing trend where tech companies are making health tracking devices smaller and more comfortable to wear all day and night. I actually like this idea. I don’t like wearing big watches, but I care about my health and sleep. A ring seems way easier to wear all the time. I’d consider buying something like this in the future if the price isn’t too high and it works well. It seems like a smart move from Samsung.
