Logitech today announced three new headphone sets designed specifically for portable digital music players: the Logitech Curve Headphones for MP3, the Logitech Identity Headphones for MP3, and the Logitech Wireless Headphones for MP3. The company says each product is designed to meet different user needs as digital music players infiltrate more aspects of daily life.

Logitech Curve Headphones for MP3 are priced at $29.99 offer a 30mm neodymium drivers, polycarbonate construction, and a behind-the-head design intended to stand up to moisture, grime, exertion, and sweat. A detachable comfort ring keeps the headphones secure during active use; the headphones are available in lime, crystal, and graphite colors.

Logitech Identity Headphones for MP3 are priced at $39.99 and are designed to reflect the user’s style and personality via changeable color plates. The behind-the-head sport oversized neodymium drivers (or “cans”) and are available in black with metallic plates in white, black, green, and orange that the user can swap in to match their fashion or mood.

Logitech Wireless Headphones for MP3 are priced at $129.99, and use Bluetooth 1.2 wireless technology to receive audio from up to 30 feet away from a music player. Users connect the Digital Wireless Adapter to the headphone output of their music player, and Bluetooth adaptive frequency hopping sidesteps interference to keep audio clear. The black behind-the-head phones sport built-in volume controls so users don’t have to return to their music player to adjust settings, and the batteries offer up to 8 hours per charge. The announcement of the Wireless Headphones for MP3 comes on the heels of the company’s June 22nd announcement of Wireless Headphones for iPod, which cost $149.99 but offer integrated volume, play, pause, and trach selection controls and are available in white.

All Logitech headphones for MP3 are compatible with any music player which uses a 3.5mm headphone jack.

ChatGPT Pro replaced Gemini Notebook as my favorite research app, and I didn’t see it coming

Electronics, Phone, Mobile Phone

I've been using Gemini Notebook ever since it launched, and for the longest time, it was my go-to app for just about everything. Whether I was researching a topic, organizing work, or studying something new, it became one of those apps I instinctively opened without thinking. When Google kept adding new features, I genuinely believed it had secured a permanent spot in my workflow.

Then, almost without realizing it, ChatGPT Pro took over. I've been using its Work mode for a while now, and somewhere along the way, it replaced Gemini Notebook. Of course, it wasn't an overnight switch. I kept bouncing between the two for weeks, but I gradually found myself reaching for ChatGPT every single time instead. At some point, I realized I hadn't opened Gemini Notebook in days. Now, I honestly don't use it at all.

AI chatbots will happily create fake news articles, and tests show ChatGPT is the worst at it

Electronics, Phone, Mobile Phone

The biggest AI chatbots are supposed to help people find information, not manufacture misinformation. But a new investigation suggests that separating those two jobs isn't as straightforward as many AI companies would like users to believe. A series of tests found that several leading AI chatbots, including ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, and Meta AI, could be persuaded to generate fake news stories, fabricated headlines, and even realistic-looking screenshots of well-known media outlets. While every chatbot showed some weaknesses, ChatGPT reportedly performed the worst, producing the most convincing fake content with surprisingly little effort.

The findings come from an investigation by German newsroom CORRECTIV, which tested how the AI assistants responded when asked to create false reports involving sensitive topics such as election fraud, government coups, war, vaccines, climate change, and conspiracy theories.

DeepSeek just slashed AI prices again, and China’s AI race is getting even messier

DeepSeek AI chatbot running on an iPhone.

China's AI race has never really been short on competition, but it's increasingly looking like a battle over who can charge the least rather than who can build the best model.

DeepSeek has unveiled its latest open-weight AI model, called V4-Flash, alongside a dramatic price reduction that makes it significantly cheaper for developers to use. The company has cut token pricing by 50% and has also decided against introducing a previously announced dynamic pricing system that would have increased costs during periods of heavy demand. The new changes paint a clear picture: DeepSeek appears more interested in winning over developers and expanding its user base than maximizing revenue in the short term.
