Halliday has refined their vision with the G2 AI glasses, their second round of smart glasses, and they think they’ve cracked the code to make the experience smarter and smoother than ever!

Looki L1 Wearable Lifelogging Camera Review: This AI Camera Turned My Everyday Life Into My Favorite Digital Journal

I like recording the notable and not-so-notable moments of my life. I’ve done this in handwritten journals since I was a kid. In the past few years, I’ve realized that I would rather save daily memories digitally because I can include lots of photos, and I can type so much faster than I can write on pen and paper. I’ve used digital journaling apps and cool trip recording apps like Time Atlas, and now I am excited to tell you all about the Looki L1 Wearable Lifelogging camera. Yes, it uses AI, but what it can do with AI is…

PEPPER EMS Suit Review: Bring Science Fiction to Real Life with This Muscle-Zapping, Workout-Maximizing Gear!

If there’s one constant in the world of fitness gadgets, it’s that someone is always offering you optimizations.

We were offered the chance to try the PEPPER EMS Suit, which leverages electromagnetic stimulation to maximize your workout in less time. Is it a winner? Let’s check it out!

Fitnexa SomniPods 3 Earbuds Review: Having Trouble Sleeping? Maybe These Can Help!

Everybody sleeps. Duh. And yet, everybody is unique in how well—or how badly—they sleep. I tend to sleep rather well (and heavily), but occasionally I have bouts of sleeplessness. When that happens, I resort to background noise on my clock radio, a floor fan blowing in my face, or even music via my trusty Apple AirPods Pro earbuds. The point is that everyone has tried-and-true tricks that work for them, with varying degrees of success. Enter the Fitnexa SomniPods 3 earbuds. These light, tiny wonders can help those with sleep issues, but they are not perfect.

Gentle Monster Intelligent Eyewear Brings Google Gemini to Fashion-First Audio Glasses

Gentle Monster intelligent eyewear is moving from rumor-adjacent curiosity to something more concrete, with Google revealing a first design at Google I/O 2026 today. Built in partnership with Google and Samsung, the upcoming collection will start with audio glasses that combine speakers, microphones, a camera, and Google Gemini‘s voice-assisted help. The idea is familiar but still tricky: make wearable tech useful enough to justify wearing it, without making you look like you’ve wandered out of a beta test. The first models are expected later this fall, with the full collection arriving later in 2026.

Amazfit T-Rex Ultra 2 Review: A 51mm Titanium Beast That’s Built for Big Wrists and Bigger Adventures

The Amazfit T-Rex Ultra 2 might as well have been made for me, and I’m still not sure that’s a wholly good thing. Don’t get me wrong, it nails everything it set out to do, but the first thought I had when I pulled it from the box was simple: LARGE. This is a 51mm, Grade 5 titanium-topped statement piece with a bright 1.5″ AMOLED display, and it looks like it means business from across the room. For bigger folks like me, that “finally feels normal” fit is a win. For smaller wrists, it’s going to be a love-it-or-leave-it situation.

NAOX LINK and NAOX WAVE Signal the Future of Brain Health as FDA-Cleared In-Ear EEG Goes Mainstream

When technology collides with medicine, the result is often incremental progress that quietly improves existing tools. Every so often, though, something arrives that feels less like an upgrade and more like a category shift, the kind that makes you double-check whether it’s actually real. NAOX Technologies appears to be aiming for that second reaction with NAOX LINK, the world’s first FDA-cleared in-ear EEG system. Unveiled at CES 2026, NAOX LINK dramatically shrinks traditional brain-monitoring hardware into a pair of earbuds, while also setting the stage for NAOX WAVE, the company’s upcoming consumer-focused brain-signal platform designed for everyday life.

Luna Band Thinks Your Wrist Deserves Advice, Not Another Pile of Health Stats

The Luna Band is stepping into a crowded wearable space with a slightly contrarian attitude.

UPDATED: AlterMe Will Definitely Alter Your Wallet, but There May Be Better Ways to Alter Your Body

However, I do draw the line at taking advantage of people who are struggling to get healthy, and when we got this pitch for AlterMe, my jaw dropped.
