Excited about the AirPods Pro

They now feature a noise-isolating design and have silicone ear tips (small. medium and large sizes) that push into the ear canal, ensuring that they fit comfortably and securely. For all its capabilities, I expected the AirPods Pro to cost more.

Which device caught your eye?

There was so much on offer during the Google event, but what caught my eye was the idea of computational photography on Pixel 4. It's "ambient technology" theme is a unique invention as well. #Google #Pixel4 #computationalphotography #Chromebook

Facebook is in the news again

Getting fined $5 million is not something most companies would want to imagine, but like the proverbial cat with nine lives, Facebook remains afloat. Isn't it equally surprising that the company recorded 'better-than-expected' second-quarter results?
