Smart rings are among the newest tech products to hit the consumer market with relative fan fare. These wearable smart accessories are perfect for tracking health-related data, while being much lower-profile than something like a traditional smartwatch. Companies like Samsung and Oura offer compelling smart ring products, but with one major holdup -- until now, these accessories have only been available in sizes up to 13. Rings, of course, are highly personal when it comes to sizing considerations, and this lack of physically larger rings has been a genuine issue for the product category.

Are you planning to buy an iPhone 16, Apple Watch Series 10 or AirPods 4?

Now that Apple's iPhone 16 is here, are you planning to buy one? While both devices offer minor upgrades over the iPhone 15 line, including the new Camera Control button, a revamped camera bump design with the iPhone 16, and the more powerful A18 chip, only those coming from an iPhone 12/iPhone 13 will really notice a dramatic change. The Apple Watch Series 10, with its more expansive screen, and the AirPods 4, with noise cancellation, are also now available, two new devices that offer decent upgrades, depending on your expectations. With all of this in mind, have you already bought one of these new Apple devices, or are you buying one soon? Let us know in the comments below.

Are you watching Agatha All Along?

It's no secret that Marvel properties have been a little uneven lately. Though Deadpool and Wolverine set new box office records this past summer, other recent Marvel entities like The Marvels, Secret Invasion, and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania have all fallen flat. New series Agatha All Along is in a unique position as it builds off of WandaVision, one of the most acclaimed Marvel shows of all time. Reviewer Anthony Marcusa found the series to be off to a promising start, and he's not alone, as you can see check out what he and other critics think at the link. But will this initial positive buzz and word of mouth be enough for you to tune in? Let us know in the comments below!
