IFA 2026
This story is part of our coverage of IFA Berlin 2025

Misfit, the Fossil-owned fitness tracking and wearable company, doesn’t have any new products to unveil at IFA 2016, the annual Berlin-based consumer electronics show. Rather, the company has announced a plethora of colors and accessories for its 2015 Shine 2.

The Misfit Shine 2 has offered a rose gold or black option since its launch, but you’ll now be able to choose from four new colors, 14 Sport Band options, and four rugged bands in nylon and leather. You can also pop the Shine 2 out of the band and opt for the new Halo Necklace, which comes in three colors. In told, Misfit says there are now 80 ways to wear the Shine 2, though various accessory and color pairings.

There are more than 150 combinations you can choose from for the Ray, thanks to a variety of new color options Misfit unveiled back in July. On top of that, if you walk into an Apple store this fall anywhere in the world, you’ll start seeing the Ray on shelves. It will now be available in “exclusive” Apple-certified colors: rose gold and space grey.

The Ray and Shine 2 are removable devices that can be ported into various types of jewelry, such as pendants or bangles. They’re both water-resistant up to 50 meters, and they can track steps, calories, distance, sleep duration and quality, and of course you will be notified of calls, texts, alarms, and movement reminders. You can also use the two trackers as a “smart button” to play music or as the shutter button for your smartphone’s camera.

The company says Shine 2 accessories will only be available later this year.

Samsung’s upcoming smartwatches may have another couple of meaningful upgrades hiding up their sleeves. Newly leaked promotional images suggest the smaller Galaxy Watch 9 will receive a much larger battery than previously reported, while the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 could finally be certified for recreational diving.

The images were shared by an X account using the @evleaks handle, although the prominent leaker Evan Blass has previously said the account does not belong to him. They appear to be official Samsung marketing materials and reveal a few details that were missing from earlier specification leaks.

Bose’s next QuietComfort headphones could steal the Ultra’s best features
Bose QuietComfort deal

For the last few years, Bose has been in a slightly awkward position. Its standard QuietComfort headphones have remained an easy recommendation, but they've also felt a little... forgotten. While the Ultra lineup grabbed the spotlight with new features and a refreshed design, the regular QuietComfort stayed the same. That may finally be about to change.

A new leak suggests Bose is preparing a QuietComfort (2nd Gen) model, and if it's accurate, this looks like Bose bringing its mainstream headphones much closer to its premium offering.
