Another week down, and, as usual, a bunch of new technology and gadgets have been announced.
This past week, Leica unveiled its most advanced full-frame camera, Meta announced its most affordable smart glasses, and Triange launched a range of new speakers. But that’s just scratching the surface.
Below, we’ve rounded up all the interesting new releases and announcements you might have missed over the past week.
Acoustic Energy AE2 (40 Year Plan)
LeicaLeica SL3-P
The Leica SL3-P is the most advanced full-frame camera in the company’s SL-System. It combines a 44-megapixel full-frame sensor with Leica’s latest hybrid autofocus system. This gives it the ability to capture up to 176-megapixel photos, as well as capture up to 40 frames per second with full autofocus support. The camera can also shoot 8K video and 4K slow motion video (up to 120 fps). Additionally, Leica presents the SL3-P alongside two advanced lenses: the Summilux-SL 50 f/1.4 ASPH. and APO-Macro-Elmarit-SL 100 f/2.8. According to the brand, the SL3-P “meets the highest standards for photography and cinematography, while also providing non-professional users easy access to high-quality photo and video production.”
MetaMeta Mirrors
Until now, Meta has only introduced smart glasses under the Ray-Ban and Oakley brands, which made them very expensive (the most affordable Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer, priced at $379). Now, with the new Meta Glasses, it has partnered with EssilorLuxottica, the parent company of both Ray-Ban and Oakley, to introduce even more affordable models that function in exactly the same way; they have many features in common. The Meta Glasses come in three styles: Adventurer, Fury and Starfire. The first two cost $299, while the third was designed with the help of Kylie Jenner and starts at $399.
Why?Wyze Scale BodyScan
Wyze’s Scale BodyScan is a smart scale positioned as a more affordable alternative to the company’s Ultra BodyScan, released last fall. Similarly, the Scale BodyScan has eight identical electrodes and a built-in grip system that allows it to track more metrics (including body weight, body fat, body age, basal metabolism and more) than just weight. The main trade-off with this affordable model is that it has a smaller display and lacks built-in Wi-Fi.
