September's Gadget Drop: The Coolest New Tech You Can Get
September has been a busy month for tech enthusiasts, with a host of new gadgets hitting the market. We’ve sifted through the releases to bring you a few of the most interesting and innovative products that caught our eye, from smart eyewear to modern hi-fi.
Ray-Ban Meta (Gen 2) Smart Glasses
Meta and Ray-Ban are back with the second generation of their AI-powered smart glasses. They stick to the classic, wearable design but pack significant upgrades. The battery life has been doubled to a respectable eight hours, and the cameras can now capture ultra HD 3K video. It’s a solid refinement of a product that’s slowly making smart glasses less awkward and more useful.
Garmin Venu 4
In the smartwatch arena, Garmin continues to impress with the Venu 4. While rivals like the Apple Watch focus on deep integration, Garmin is carving out its niche with incredible battery life and practical features. The Venu 4 boasts a 12-day battery, a built-in LED flashlight, and a new Fitness Coach feature for personalized workouts. It’s a compelling option for those who want a powerful fitness tracker without the daily charging ritual.
Nothing Ear 3
Nothing continues its assault on boring tech with the Ear 3 wireless earbuds. They retain the signature transparent design but add a clever new feature: the charging case doubles as a high-quality standalone microphone called “Super Mic.” This is a genuinely innovative idea for calls and video conferencing, turning the case into a useful tool rather than just a battery pack. It’s this kind of thoughtful design that makes Nothing a brand to watch.
Edifier S880DB MKII
For the desktop audio fans, Edifier has released an updated version of its popular S880DB powered bookshelf speakers. The MKII version features new drivers and improved internals for better performance. With built-in Bluetooth and multiple inputs, these versatile speakers can connect to your computer, turntable, or even your TV, offering a high-quality audio experience in a compact package.
