This expansion is enabled by their new audio and voice model, Gemini 3.1 Flash Live, which delivers even more natural and intuitive conversations. The new model is also inherently multilingual, which means that people around the world will be able to speak with Search in their preferred language. Read more below..
Bringing Search Live to more people
Search Live is designed for those moments when you need real-time help, and typing out a query just won’t cut it. To go Live with Search, simply open the Google app on Android or iOS and tap the Live icon under the Search bar. From there, you can ask your question out loud to get a helpful audio response, then continue the conversation with follow-up questions or dive deeper with helpful web links.

You can also access Search Live if you’re already pointing your camera with Google Lens — just tap the Live option at the bottom of the screen to have a real-time, back-and-forth conversation about what you see in the real world.
We’re always working to make Search more helpful, and we’re excited to see how people around the world use Search Live to learn, explore and get things done.
HAYLOU has introduced Flowbuds N55, a true wireless earbud designed to deliver reliable everyday listening without added complexity. Built for users who move through noisy environments and long days, Flowbuds N55 helps reduce distractions, stay comfortable, and remain powered from morning through evening—making dependable performance easy to experience.
The launch of Flowbuds N55 reflects HAYLOU’s evolving product direction in 2026, shaped by a clear insight across global markets: users want smart audio devices that are reliable, intuitive, and supportive of daily life—rather than overloaded with features or complexity.
Designed for Reliability in Real Life
Rather than optimizing for isolated lab results, Flowbuds N55 is engineered for stable performance in everyday environments. Its real-time adaptive active noise cancellation reduces ambient noise by up to 54dB under optimal conditions, dynamically responding to changing environments such as traffic, transit, and crowded indoor spaces—without requiring manual adjustments.
By adapting automatically, the system helps reduce distractions as they occur, allowing users to stay focused without managing settings.
Sound Tuned for Daily Comfort
At the core is a 12.4mm titanium-coated dynamic driver certified for Hi-Res Audio&LDAC, delivering balanced clarity, controlled bass, and rich detail designed for fatigue-free listening throughout the day.The audio profile prioritizes clarity and control, ensuring vocals stay clear, bass remains measured, and details are preserved without fatigue.
Instead of aiming for short-term impact, the tuning is designed to support repeated listening throughout the day—across music, calls, and spoken content.
Power That Lasts Through the Day
With up to 12 hours of playback on a single charge and 40 hours with the case, Flowbuds N55 minimizes charging interruptions across an entire day of use.This focus on endurance removes a common point of friction in daily routines.
Paired with intuitive touch controls and a compact charging case, the overall experience is straightforward and easy to adopt, particularly for first-time true wireless users.
Design for Everyday Use
The physical design of Flowbuds N55 follows the same practical philosophy. Its dual-tone charging case, finished with vacuum coating and excimer processing, balances durability with a refined appearance. Designed for regular handling and daily carry, it emphasizes function and longevity over visual excess.
A Product Aligned with HAYLOU’s Direction
Flowbuds N55 reflects HAYLOU’s continued focus on core experiences—sound quality, call clarity, battery life, and ease of use—delivering smart audio products users can rely on every day. It also marks a step forward in HAYLOU’s broader goal of making reliable, high-quality performance accessible across global markets.

The Nank Clip Super clip-on earbuds are the latest clip-on earbuds to hit the market which have become popular now and after reviewing some 50 pairs at this stage I kind alike them myself, when they first arrived on the scene I was not the biggest fan but this has changed over the last year and I am now a fan.
The style we get here is similar to others but have a pillow like shape to the hardwear on one side and pearl shaped on the other that sitsinto your esr with directional speakers.
You will not get ANC with these but they will isoalte some sound indoors is perfect for them when maxed out and you will be hearing very little outside what you listen to and enjoy immersive audio in quiter areas.
Having said this these clip-ons are great for outdoor and more so you can hear what is going on around you which is not a bad thing, if you want outdoor noise cancelling buds these are not for you but if you want to hear your surrounding and good audio these are for you they are secure one clipped on correctly.
For the audio these deliver good sound with the 16.2mm ceramic drivers despite no app as of now hopefully in the next iteration there will be so you are stuck with what you get out of the box however the sound is good overall with no tinny sound or lag latency during my testing I was pleased with the audio and taking into consideration the design here they pack a real puch and highs lows and mids all sound good and have a decent volume, call where also fine on these it has to be said.
Battey life is solid for the style of earbud giving you up to 32 hours of charge and come with wireless charging. Overall for the price there is much on offer and they look good and sound good.

OBSBOT, an industry leader in smart videography technology, today announces the global launch of the OBSBOT Tiny 3 and OBSBOT Tiny 3 Lite, a new generation of AI-powered 4K PTZ webcams designed around one core belief: delivering studio-grade audio and outstanding video in one seamless experience.
The Tiny 3 Series sets a new benchmark for professional webcams by combining studio-grade spatial audio, flagship-level imaging, and industry-leading AI intelligence in an ultra-compact aluminum-alloy body. Designed for content creators, podcasters, remote professionals, educators, and live streamers, the series delivers premium sight and sound—without external microphones, cable clutter, or complex setups.
“With traditional webcams, audio quality is often an afterthought,” said Liu Bo, CEO of OBSBOT. “With the Tiny 3 Series, we rethought professionals and creators’ real needs: Video quality still matters, but audio, intelligence, and ease of use are just as critical. Tiny 3 delivers flagship imaging in an ultra-compact form for creators who want the best, while Tiny 3 Lite brings the same professional audio and AI experience to everyday workflows at a more accessible level. Together, the Tiny 3 Series gives users the freedom to choose the performance that best fits how they create and communicate.”
Revolutionary Top-Tier Spatial Audio Performance
Both Tiny 3 and Tiny 3 Lite feature an industry-leading triple silicon MEMS microphone array, combining one omnidirectional and two directional microphones powered by Sisonic MEMS technology. This architecture—commonly found in premium TWS earbuds and professional audio equipment—delivers:
The result is clear, natural, and immersive sound that rivals dedicated microphones—directly from a webcam.
To adapt seamlessly to different creative and professional scenarios, the Tiny 3 Series offers five dedicated audio profiles:
Pure Audio Mode – Zero processing, studio-grade capture for music recording, ASMR, and precision post-production
Spatial Audio Mode – Immersive stereo with enhanced left-right separation-perfect for vlogs and ambient storytelling where soundscape is key
Smart Omni Mode – AI-powered 360° pickup that balances vocals and ambient sound for meetings, group discussions, and multi-speaker streams
Directional Mode – Focus on the voice in front while cutting surrounding noise-ideal for solo presentations and podcasts in noisy spaces
Dual-Directional Mode – Capture clear audio from front and rear while rejecting side noise-built for interviews, two-host podcasts, and face-to-face conversations
With Voice Locator, the Tiny 3 Series doesn’t just hear you—it finds you. Using spatial audio positioning, the webcam detects the direction of speech, smoothly rotates the gimbal, and initiates tracking automatically. Combined with voice commands like “Hi Tiny,” users can start recording or meetings from anywhere in the room. The series also supports the OBSBOT Vox SE wireless lavalier for cable-free professional audio.
Flagship Imaging in the Tiniest 4K PTZ Webcam
Tiny 3 features the smallest 4K PTZ webcam design in the world, at just 63 g and 37 × 37 × 49 mm, compact enough to disappear into any professional or creator setup. Inside this compact body is a 1/1.28-inch flagship CMOS sensor, delivering:
4K@30fps video and 1080p@120fps high-frame-rate capture
Advanced DCG HDR for balanced highlights and shadows without motion blur
Wide ISO 100–12800 range for excellent low-light performance
Ultra-fast Dual All-Pixel PDAF autofocus for confident live demos and movement
The result is crisp, cinematic video quality that rivals dedicated cameras—now in the smallest PTZ webcam ever built.
The slightly larger Tiny 3 Lite (73g, 41×41×58mm) brings professional imaging to a wider audience, featuring a 1/2-inch stacked CMOS sensor with advanced HDR algorithms, fast All-Pixel PDAF autofocus, and excellent low-light handling (ISO 100–6400). Supporting 4K@30fps and 1080p@120fps, it delivers smooth, reliable performance in a lighter, more portable integrated-stand design.
Industry-Leading AI Tracking 2.0
Powered by OBSBOT’s latest AI algorithms—refined from its professional Tail Series—the Tiny 3 Series introduces AI Tracking 2.0, delivering precise, reliable, and customizable tracking without constant manual adjustment.
Key capabilities include:
Accurate tracking of individuals, groups, hands, and objects, with “Only Me” Mode for locked single-subject focus and Zone Tracking for professional framing control
Auto Zoom, customizable composition lines, and Face Framing for professional-looking shots
Voice Tracking, combining audio positioning with visual tracking for hands-free operation
Multiple AI Modes, including dedicated Desk Mode and Whiteboard Mode (exclusive to Tiny 3), plus Hand Tracking
Intuitive gesture and voice controls for fluid, interruption-free workflows
Powerful software for pro control
Through OBSBOT Center and Obsbot live, users unlock DSLR-level creative controls, including exposure and gamma curve adjustment, manual white balance tuning, NVIDIA Maxine Eye Contact, background blur and replacement, overlays, and more—turning any desktop setup into a compact production studio.
Two new software innovations further expand creative possibilities for presentations, streaming and creative production:
RTC Remote Interaction enables real-time, bidirectional audio and video at 720P with sub-200ms latency, allowing remote participants to control PTZ, zoom, and AI tracking directly via browser.
Virtual Camera (VR) Features, powered by the OBSBOT Toolkit, turn Tiny 3 into a motion-capture-free virtual camera system with AI Tracking, pre-built avatars and scenes, and one-click switching between virtual avatars, voice tones, and environments.
Seamless OBSBOT Ecosystem integration
The Tiny 3 Series integrates effortlessly with the broader OBSBOT ecosystem, supporting:
The TOZO NC20 Pro is a huge leap forward for TOZO, moving from a “budget alternative” to a serious contender in the mid-range earbud market.The standout feature is the Smart Touchscreen Case, which mirrors the functionality of high-end flagship buds like the JBL Live beam 3 but at a fraction of the cost and has been seen before on again higher end priced manufacturers offerings.
The Smart Touchscreen Case I like it.
The case features a full-color LED display that allows you to control the earbuds without touching your phone. This is not a new feature but it is a feature not seen on earbuds this price and it is huge. You can also change the wallpaper for those who want more customization.
With the case you can toggle ANC modes, adjust volume, change EQ presets, check individual battery percentages, and even “find my earbuds” directly from the screen and much more, See the full hands on video below for more or check the unboxing here
While it might seem like a “gimmick” at first for newcomers to cases with a touchscreen , it is genuinely useful for office workers or students who want to keep their phones tucked away while still having full control over their audio on their case I have tested similar in the past and love the idea.
The sound
Equipped with 12mm drivers and LDAC support and the DLC diaphragm give these a great soundstage is surprisingly wide for an in-ear bud. The Bass: Thanks to the SDLC technology, the low-end is punchy and deep without “bleeding” into the vocals.
The Mids/Highs: The Hi-Res certification shows here; strings and vocals are crisp. It supports a frequency range up to 40 kHz, which is rare at this price point.
Customization: The TOZO app offers 32+ preset EQs, allowing you to tune the sound from “Bass Boost” to “Classical” easily and you can really hear the difference bewtween the EQs something again TOZO have been solid on.
Overall excellent sound as expected from TOZO and at the price you cant complain really with all genres tested audio music videos and more they pass the test with flying colours.
Call quality it also excellent indoors and outdoors.
Adaptive Noise Cancellation (ANC)
TOZO claims up to 52dB of noise reduction. In real-world testing, it excels at removing low-frequency hums (engines, fans). Indoors of course is the best experience but outdoors also good for the price after several weeks of testing.
The “Adaptive” part means the buds automatically increase the ANC strength when you step into a louder environment, which works seamlessly about 90% of the time and in general pretty good in my book.
Battery Life & Durability
The battery life is one of the best in its class. Depenidng on your settings as the all differ to peoples taste as always, you get roughly 12-13 hours with ANC on and 15+ with it off. The case holds an massive amount of extra charge, bringing the total to 80 hours. These also come with an IPX8 rating so they are safe to use outdoors or going to the gym.
If you want the absolute best tech for your hard earned cash, the TOZO NC20 Pro is hard to beat. They are ideal for commuters and travelers who need long battery life and strong ANC, or tech enthusiasts who want the cool factor of the touchscreen case without paying the price of higher end brands and TOZO has consitently put it up to the bigger names with their products and I look forward to seeing what is next from them.

Building on the success of the M60, Edifier’s new M90 active speaker extends premiumdesktop sound into full home-entertainment setups, bridging the gap between desktop audio, TVs, streaming platforms, and gaming consoles. Its adaptable design suits a wide range of environments—from compact desks to living rooms—while intuitive controls and an omni-directional remote make it effortless to switch between devices and sources.
The M90 features a two-way design with a 4-inch long-throw mid-low driver and 1-inch silk-dome tweeter, delivering 100W RMS power and up to 100dB SPL. Bi-amped 24-bit/96kHz DSP provides pristine audio. Its extensive connectivity—including Line-in, Optical, USB-C, HDMI eARC, and Bluetooth 6.0 with LDAC—ensures the M90 delivers a truly flexible, all-in-one audio experience for work, play, and everything in between.

Designed for today’s home studios and mobile workflows, Edifier’s MR Series near-field monitors deliver studio accuracy in compact spaces. The MR3 offers a space-saving design for desktop setups, while the three-way MR5 features a built-in woofer and side-mounted acoustic lens for powerful bass in a small enclosure.
All MR Series models feature end-to-end DSP, bi-amp or tri-amp amplification, tonal tuning, androom/placement compensation, along with wide off-axis response for accurate monitoring beyondthe sweet spot. Both the MR3 and MR5 have earned prestigious Japan’s VGP 2025 Design Award.
Advancing Monitoring: Near-Middle Field Series
Edifier expands its monitor lineup with the Near-Middle Field Series, led by the XR6. This three-way active monitor includes in-box auto-calibration software that analyzes roomacoustics and automatically optimizes setup, ensuring accurate performance in any workspace.
Showcasing the QR Series: Understated Aesthetics with Hi-Fi Pedigree With RGB lighting now a standard feature of modern gaming setups—and those setups increasingly serving as hubs for video broadcasting, live streaming, and remote work—Edifier’s
QR65 and QR30 adopt a refined approach to RGB, enhancing ambiance without visual distraction.
The QR Series uses an Infinity Mirror design to create subtle, immersive ambient lighting that adds depth without distracting from a clean, minimalist desk setup, while its Hi-Fi-grade acoustic design matches the demands of modern high-resolution content. The QR65 features a two-way design with a long-throw mid-low driver and silk-dome tweeter, 70W RMS output with bi-ampedDSP, a precision maze-type bass-reflex port for deep, controlled bass, and a built-in GaNfast charger for efficient power delivery and clean cable management.
HDMI Integration: Elevating Audio Connectivity
While HDMI has long been standard for AV receivers and soundbars, standalone active speakers have rarely offered it. With high-resolution and immersive content becoming the norm, Edifier’s latest lineup integrates HDMI eARC, bringing seamless, high-bandwidth audio to desktop and home setups. Premium models like the M90, R2750MKII, and S355DB now deliver future-ready, cinema-quality performance with next-generation displays and media players.
The Status Audio Pro X earbuds are the company’s latest flagship release, aimed squarely at listeners who prioritize exceptional audio quality above all else. Building on the foundation of their previous models (like the Between 3ANC), the Pro X delivers a technically impressive and immersive listening experience, not tested the previous models and can see no reason to need to do so after testing these out.
The single biggest selling point of the Pro X is its internal hardware: a hybrid triple-driver system in each earbud. This setup includes a large 12mm dynamic driver for powerful, controlled bass, and two Knowles balanced armature drivers dedicated to handling the mid-range and high frequencies.
Detail and Clarity: This multi-driver approach pays off immediately. The audio fidelity is fantastic, offering outstanding clarity and resolution. You can pick up nuances, instrumental separation, and vocal textures that often get lost in single-driver earbuds.
Tuning: Out of the box, the sound signature is dynamic and engaging, featuring deep, tight bass that doesn’t overwhelm the clear mids and crisp, detailed highs. For those who like to customize, the companion app offers an 8-band equalizer (EQ) and presets, including the well-regarded “Knowles Preferred” curve.
Hi-Res Audio: The inclusion of advanced Bluetooth codecs like LDAC (for Android users) and the future-proof LC3 means the Pro X can stream high-resolution audio (up to 24-bit/96 kHz), truly utilizing the capability of the triple drivers.
Status has refined the design, making the Pro X significantly smaller and lighter (about 20% smaller) than its predecessors.
Fit: They maintain the unique, stemmed, elliptical design but sit more snugly in the ear. While they no longer use the silicone “fitwings,” the ergonomic shape, combined with the multiple included eartips, ensures a secure and comfortable fit for most users, even during long listening sessions and always check for the best tips the ones on might not be the best for everyone.
Build: They are rated IP55 for water and dust resistance, making them durable enough for gym use and everyday weather.
Controls: The touch controls are reliable and responsive and no issues after some time using them like any other earbuds it is all about the thumb memory.
The Pro X offers hybrid Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) that is a massive improvement over previous Status models.
ANC Performance: The ANC is highly effective, especially at canceling out consistent low-frequency noises like airplane engines or office hums, reaching up to -52dB of reduction. It’s solid for daily commutes and focusing, overall decent especially in low noise enironments where you can get the best experience.
Transparency Mode: The ambient/transparency mode is functional but can sound a bit “artificial” compared to industry leaders.
Call Quality: Call clarity is excellent thanks to six beam-forming microphones and Voiceloom AI speech enhancement technology, which effectively suppresses background noise during calls.
Connectivity: Features like Multipoint connectivity (allowing simultaneous connection to two devices), Google Fast Pair, and Microsoft Swift Pair work flawlessly and are great for hybrid work. They use the latest Bluetooth 5.3 standard.
Battery Life: Status claims up to 8 hours of playback per charge, with 24 hours total from the case. This will vary per user and their setting as with any earbuds or headphones ANC does impede greatly on any.
Charging: The case supports both USB-C charging and wireless (Qi) charging ideal for those like me who has adopted this all over my house and office.
The Status Audio Pro X earbuds are designed for the audio enthusiast— A person who can tell the difference between a high-bitrate stream and a standard one. As having the biggest range of earbuds reviewed in Ireland I can confirm these are the dogs, you know what.
