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.

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?

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.

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!
