Australia’s BlueAnt today announced that its popular X3 micro Bluetooth headsets are available in a range of bold colors, including gold, hot pink, bronze, and red—along with tech-savvy standbys like cool white and plain ‘ole black.

The BlueAnt X3 micros are full duplex Bluetooth headsets with a built-in volume control aimed at the mobile phone and VoIP crowd. The length of a matchstick, they offer up to 30 feet of roaming from any three Bluetooth-enabled devices, such as a personal computer, notebook, mobile phone, or personal media player, and the built-in battery provides up to 7 hours of talk time and 180 hours of standby. Charging options include AC adapter, in-car charging, and USB charging—and all three come in the box, so yo don’t have to buy separate accessories. The headset can easily be swapped to the left or right ear, and offers one-touch answer and redial functions via headset and handsfree device profiles.

The best free VPNs for 2026

The best free VPNs still come with compromises, but a few offer enough privacy and flexibility to be genuinely useful.

Proton VPN UI

A virtual private network (VPN) encrypts your internet traffic and routes it through a server run by the VPN provider. Websites see the VPN server’s IP address instead of yours, and you can get around geo-blocks, censorship, and ISP throttling. The best VPN services are paid, but there are still a handful of free options that do the job well.

Most free VPNs come with a hidden cost, because running servers isn’t cheap and a company that doesn’t charge you has to make its money somewhere else. Many do so by logging your browsing activity and selling it to advertisers, while others flood you with ads and track you across apps.

There's nothing quite like curling up with a good book on a cold evening. As much as I love the feel of a physical book, books take up a lot of space, and carrying more than one on a trip quickly becomes a chore. That's where e-readers come in, and the Amazon Kindle remains one of the best options.

Amazon just refreshed its Kindle lineup with thinner, lighter designs, a new flush-front display, and colors that wrap from front to back. Add the Kindle Scribe and the Kindle Scribe Colorsoft to the mix, and you have more choices than ever before.

These 20 apps cover everything from quick notes and password management to automation and local file sharing. Some are free, others charge for advanced features, and a few take some effort to figure out. The point isn't to install them all. It's to find the ones that make your phone work better for you.
