Olloclip’s addition for Otterbox’s modular case easily switches between 4 lenses

Before phones get modular, Otterbox wants to make our existing devices a little more functional with the Universe Case System. This iPhone case lets you snap in various modules to add extra features, one of which is Olloclip’s popular 4-in-1 lens, and we got a peek of it at CE Week 2016.

Olloclip‘s 4-in-1 lens features four varying lens types: Fisheye, wide-angle, a 10x macro, and a 15x macro. Snap it into the Otterbox Universe Case and you’ve easily expanded the style in how you can take photographs with the iPhone — but note that the case only fits an iPhone 6, 6S, 6 Plus, and the 6S Plus.

The clip also acts as a wearable pendant, if you wanted to carry it around rather than leaving it on your phone. Unfortunately, it’s a bit pricey at $80 — and that’s not even factoring the price of the Otterbox Universe Case, which is $50 for the regular-sized iPhones and $60 for the Plus variants.

Thankfully, if you don’t have or want Otterbox’s Universe case, Olloclip still offers the same product for the iPhone devices at $80.

We also got a look at Olloclip Studio, which the company created to act as a photographer’s on-the-go kit. Attaching to the same iPhone 6, 6S, and Plus variants, the case allows you to attach various photo accessories to it. For example, you can mount a finger grip to help keep shots steady, a tripod, a kickstand, and more. The mounting solution is patent pending.

Olloclip Studio will set you back $90 for the whole setup.

Meta AI is coming to Europe after almost a whole year of negotiations
Meta AI WhatsApp widget.

Meta AI has been around in the United States since 2023 but the company had to delay its launch in the EU due to regulatory concerns. Now, it seems like Zuckerberg's team has finally come to a (limited) agreement with European regulators and will be rolling out a version of Meta AI to the EU.

It looks like some of the kinks are yet to be ironed out, however, since Europe's version of the product will be fairly limited compared to Meta AI in the United States. It will function as a chatbot only, without any of its Llama-powered multi-modal abilities such as generating images or answering questions about photos.

Oppo Reno13 series brings flagship AI smarts to mid-range devices
A press render of the Oppo Reno13.

Oppo has announced the Oppo Reno13 series of smartphones, which do something very different to devices like the Samsung Galaxy A56 and Nothing Phone 3a Pro. Rather than holding back on AI features either to push upgrades or because some features have questionable value, Oppo stuffs the Reno 13 phones full of the same AI as you get in its top phones.

There are three phones in the Reno13 family: Reno13 F, Reno13, and Reno13 Pro. The Reno13 Pro is the top model, and it features a 50MP telephoto camera on the back, providing a 3.5x zoom to join the 50MP main camera and 8MP wide-angle camera. On the front is a 50MP selfie camera with autofocus. Inside the phone is a custom tuned MediaTek Dimensity 8350 processor, 12GB of RAM, and either 256GB or 512GB of storage space.

A colorful deal? Save $500 on the OnePlus Open today, but color matters
Rear shell of OnePlus Open in black.

If the first thing you think of when you think of a folding phone is the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold or the Samsung Galaxy Fold 6, it is time to broaden your horizons. Why? The OnePlus Open, considered to be one of the best folding phones, is a little older but still a worthy contender. And today, you can save $500 or more off of its usual $1,700 price.

However, where you should buy it depends on which color variation you want — Emerald Dusk (green) or Voyager Black. For the green variation, you can get the phone for $1,200 at either Amazon or Best Buy, saving you $500. The black version, however, is selling for $1,092 at Amazon. Despite not being labelled as a deal, the black version is $108 cheaper on Amazon than Best Buy and $608 cheaper than Best Buy's regular price. And, surprisingly, the colors do matter a tad.
