    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Oura has a new partner integration, and this time it’s a women's health platform that combines lab testing with telehealth care, dubbed Xella Health. Folks with an Oura ring in the US can now sign up to send ring data and other analysis right into Xella Health’s systems, assuming you’re subscribed to the platform. Those subscribed to Xella Health can choose to share sleep, heart rate variability (HRV), resting heart rate, temperature trends, recovery, activity, and menstrual cycle insights — ess

    Claude was down for many — here's everything we know (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    If you've been trying to chat with Claude on the web, iOS, Android, or desktop and have been greeted with a "Request couldn't be processed. You can try again." message, you're not alone. Claude, Anthropic's AI chatbot, appears to be having some issues this AM, starting shortly before 10 AM ET on September 20, 2026, with Down Detector currently showing over 2,900 reported issues as of 10:04 AM ET.

    Meta’s one more thing? A Muse AI companion you can actually carry (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    It’s not a Tamagotchi, but Mark Zuckerberg’s one more thing is just as cute and hopefully much more functional. Announced at the very end of Meta Connect 26 keynote — after the Meta VR Glasses and Meta Ray-Ban Audio — was Muse Charm. A tiny silver square with a screen on the front and thicker black bezels, central to the experience is the display that shows off your custom Muse.

    I’ve spent a week with Apple Watch Ultra 4 – and it’s shaping up to be a serious endurance watch (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Alongside the unveiling of the iPhone Duo, AirPods 5, iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max, and the Apple Watch Series 12, the Cupertino giant also launched the Apple Watch Ultra 4. There’s no price increase, no major change to the design, and no change to the color options. It’s a pretty similar upgrade to the Series 12, which you can read my preview of here — it gets the redesigned rear as part of the new health-sensing system, there’s a new S11 chip inside with a Secure Enclave and separate always-on

    I’ve worn the Apple Watch Series 12 for a week — the biggest changes are underneath (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Now, I typically wear an Apple Watch daily, and have since the wearable launched in spring 2015, but for the past week, I’ve swapped my Ultra 3 or Series 11 for the Apple Watch Series 12. Unveiled at Apple’s September 9, 2026, ‘Surprise and shine’ event, the next-generation mid-range Apple Watch — err, flagship for everyone in between the SE third-gen and Ultra 4 — doesn’t change much in terms of looks over the Series 11, but does usher in a redesigned rear as part of a new health-sensing system
