Apple

The Apple Watch Ultra 2 is the latest and greatest smartwatch from Apple. It looks a lot like the first Ultra, but it has a much faster and smarter chip inside. The S9 chip lets you use Siri without an internet connection, and it also improves your location accuracy. You can also enjoy a brighter display (3,000 nits), longer battery life (up to 72 hours in low-power mode), and deeper diving (up to 40 metres) with the Ultra 2.

The new watchOS 10 software adds more features to the Ultra 2, such as widgets, new app icons, and better maps and cycling. You can also customize your watch face with the Modular Ultra option, which shows more data on the edges of the screen. And you can easily answer or end calls, start timers, work as a shutter for your iPhone, and more with a double-tap gesture. The Apple Watch Ultra 2 will be available on September 22 for $1,099. You can pre-order it now.

Apple

Apple unveiled the Apple Watch Series 9 at its “Wonderlust” event on Tuesday. The new smartwatch looks the same as the previous model, but has a faster processor, better sensors, and a brighter display.

The S9 SiP also has an improved version of Apple’s ultra-wideband chip, which can detect the precise location of other devices with the same technology. This enables new features for finding your iPhone or other items.

Meet the Polaroid I-2: A high-end instant camera with full manual control

The all-new Polaroid I-2 instant camera works to combine the timeless charm of instant film with cutting-edge technology. The company wanted to make a "high-end Polaroid camera," and the I-2 is a result of four years of hard work and innovation.

What makes the I-2 stand out is its continuous autofocus three-lens system, which features the sharpest lens ever seen in a Polaroid instant camera. This lens was developed in collaboration with Japanese optical engineers. The goal was to produce stunning image quality and depth of field thanks to its wide aperture.
