Huge leak reveals the release date and price of Apple’s AR glasses

%name Huge leak reveals the release date and price of Apple’s AR glasses by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley
  • Apple’s AR glasses are supposedly called Apple Glass, a leaker revealed, and the product is set to be unveiled during the iPhone 12 launch event.
  • The coronavirus health crisis might force Apple to postpone the reveal to the first quarter of next year.
  • Apple Glass will cost $499 without a prescription for the lenses, and could be available by Q4 2021.
  • Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

Apple has been working on its augmented reality (AR) glasses for a few years, which we know thanks to a slew of rumors that were indirectly confirmed by patent documentation describing technologies that could be used in such a product. AR has been been a core feature of iOS for years, one that Apple is looking to further improve in the very near future. The newest iPad Pro comes with a LiDAR camera that can be used for AR applications, and the iPhone 12 Pro models are also expected to feature the same functionality.

AR glasses could one day replace the iPhone or, at least, reduce the user’s interaction with the device in their pocket. To get there, however, we’ll need AR glasses that use the iPhone to display information. And that future might be closer than we thought, according to a reliable Apple leaker. What’s more, Apple Glass will reportedly cost $499, not including prescription lenses, which is much cheaper than we would have imagined.

Microsoft Build 2020: How to watch Microsoft’s developer conference

%name Microsoft Build 2020: How to watch Microsoft’s developer conference by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley
  • Microsoft Build 2020 was canceled in March, but the company decided to forge ahead with an online-only event instead, similar to what Apple is planning to do with WWDC 2020.
  • Build 2020 begins on Tuesday, May 19th at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET, and anyone can watch the online sessions for free as long as they register on the Build website.
  • There are over 600 sessions slated to take place from May 19th – May 21st, but you can build your own schedule to make sure that you attend all of the sessions that interest you most.
  • Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

Microsoft’s annual Build developer conference was one of countless events scheduled to take place this spring and summer that had to be canceled due to the novel coronavirus pandemic, but unlike some other events, Build wasn’t scrapped altogether. In mid-March, Microsoft announced that it would no longer be going forward with an in-person event, but would instead host a digital event that developers would be invited to attend.

Typically, Microsoft charges developers thousands of dollars to attend the event in Seattle, but this year, anyone can sign up online and watch everything for free. Microsoft Build 2020 starts on May 19th at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET and lasts until May 21st at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET. Throughout those 48 hours, virtual attendees will be able to stream hundreds of sessions on a wide variety of topics, and you see the entire schedule on the Build website.

AirPods Pro fall to new Amazon-low price – and last chance to get AirPods rivals for $19.59

%name AirPods Pro fall to new Amazon low price – and last chance to get AirPods rivals for $19.59 by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley
  • Amazon’s best AirPods Pro deal ever popped up last week thanks to a special discount that’s applied at checkout in addition to the $14 discount shown on the product page.
  • That makes the final price of Apple’s wildly popular noise cancelling earbuds just $227.99, which is even less than they cost last year on Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
  • If you don’t want to spend that much and you don’t need active noise cancellation, today is also your last day to pick up a best-selling entry-level AirPods alternative for just $19.59 thanks to a limited-time deal.
  • Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

You know what’s even crazier than Apple’s insanely popular AirPods Pro true wireless noise cancelling earbuds having fallen to a new all-time low price last week on Amazon? The fact that they’re still available at that new all-time low price right now!

We’re not sure how or even why since they already sell so well at full price, but Apple’s popular AirPods Pro true wireless noise cancelling earphones dropped to a new all-time low price at Amazon last week. What’s even more bizarre is that the new deeper discount is somehow still available this week! Despite the fact that they outsell any other headphones at their full price of $249, they’re on sale right now at a new Amazon-low price of just $227.99. That’s less than they were selling for on Black Friday and on Cyber Monday last year, and this deal is definitely not going to last long.

As you can see in the screenshot above, Amazon is offering Apple’s popular ANC buds with a 6% discount, as it has been for several weeks now. But there’s also an extra $7 discount that’s applied at checkout. What’s more, you can also see that they’re available with free one-day Prime shipping in some areas! There’s no telling how long the additional discount will be available, but our guess that it’ll disappear within hours considering how many of our readers are about to flood Amazon’s site to take advantage of this awesome sale. Don’t miss out!

Apple AirPods Pro: $227.99

Now, there’s no question that this is a fantastic deal on Apple’s AirPods Pro. That said, there’s also no question whatsoever that $227.99 is still a whole lot of money to spend on earphones. If you don’t have a real need for active noise cancellation and you’re not terribly concerned with the image associated with Apple products, there’s another deal available right now that you definitely need to check out.

SoundPEATS TrueCapsule true wireless earbuds have been best sellers with our readers for quite some time, and there are a few obvious reasons for that. They offer good sound quality and solid battery life along with a comfortable design and silicone ear tips that prevent sound from leaking. On top of all that, they’re also wonderfully affordable at $31. They also go on sale fairly often, which is when our readers typically take advantage.

We do indeed see sales all the time on these true wireless earbuds, but we’ve never seen them priced as low as they are today. Clip the 10% coupon on the product page and use the coupon code LKXEGOJO at checkout, and you’ll only pay $19.59! This deal expires tomorrow so it’s your last chance to grab a pair at this new all-time low price.

Apple TV+ is buying older shows and movies to challenge Netflix

%name Apple TV+ is buying older shows and movies to challenge Netflix by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley
  • Apple is reportedly buying the rights to older shows and movies to add to Apple TV+.
  • When Apple TV+ launched last fall, Apple said that it wasn’t looking to compete with Netflix or Hulu, but it appears that the strategy has changed in the intervening months.
  • Apple has already bought several shows and movies, but its focus will remain on originals.
  • Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

When Apple TV+ launched late last year, Apple made it clear that its goal was not to replace or directly compete with Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, or any of the other top streaming services, but rather to complement them with a lineup of star-studded original shows and movies like The Morning Show and The Banker. At just $4.99 a month, the price of a subscription was much lower than any of its would-be rivals, and anyone who bought a new iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, or Apple TV could get a free year of the streaming service.

Apple’s approach was certainly unique, but less than a year later, it appears that the company might be ready to level the playing field by expanding its library to include third-party content. According to Bloomberg, Apple is acquiring old movies and TV shows to give the likes of Netflix and Disney+ a run for their money.

Grab Amazon’s 5 best-selling protein bars before they sell out

%name Grab Amazon’s 5 best selling protein bars before they sell out by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley
  • The best-selling protein bars for men and women alike are all back in stock right now on Amazon, giving you a rare chance to pick up your favorite bars that have likely been sold out for quite some time.
  • Getting some types of food like protein bars will continue to be challenging in the coming weeks and months, so it’s a good time to stock up.
  • We regularly recommend Quest Hero bars because they’re the most delicious bars you’ll ever try, but they’re certainly not the only good options out there.
  • Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

Anyone who follows the BGR Deals team’s coverage knows that there is one protein bar in particular that we recommend above all others. It’s the Quest Hero bar, which is sweetened with allulose instead of regular sugar. It tastes exactly like sugar but the body doesn’t metabolize it the same way, so you don’t have to worry about all the calories and other problems associated with sugar. These protein bars are amazing and there are two flavors in particular that we love: Quest Hero Chocolate Bars and Quest Hero Blueberry Cobbler Bars.

As good as they are, Hero bars actually aren’t among the best-selling protein bars on Amazon. Anyone who has ever tried one will be shocked to find that out, but perhaps it’s only because not enough people know about them. In any case, the novel coronavirus pandemic means we’re all cooped up in our homes for a long time to come, and we might not be getting as much nutrition as we should. Or, if you plan to work out at home — and you definitely should — you’re obviously not going to be able to grab a protein bar or a shake on your way out of the gym. With that in mind, we dug through Amazon to find the five best-selling protein bars on the entire site, and you’ll find them all listed in order down below.

How to make your own N95 face masks with materials from Amazon

%name How to make your own N95 face masks with materials from Amazon by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley
  • Best-selling 3-layer face masks like the ones the CDC recommends we all wear are back in stock on Amazon at all-time low prices, but there’s another option you should explore.
  • Someone reverse-engineered N95 masks and shared instructions online that will show you how to make your own DIY face masks.
  • If done properly, these DIY face masks could provide even better protection than the 3-layer masks that are so popular on Amazon, though either option is more than good enough to protect you as long as you also practice social distancing and good hygiene.
  • Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

Head on over to Amazon and you’ll find that the retailer’s best-selling 3-layer face masks are back in stock and ready to ship. What’s more, they’re down to an all-time low price of just $0.70 per mask. As long as you practice strict social distancing and good hygiene by constantly washing your hands or using hand sanitizer (which is also in stock right now at Amazon) whenever you touch a surface in a public place, these masks are very effective. And if you want to step things up a notch, you’ll find that even thicker 4-layer KN95 face masks are back in stock as well right now. They’re definitely going to sell out soon though, so you’ll need to hurry if you want any.

Face Mask, Pack of 50: $34.99 ($0.70 / mask)

Magicare 4-Ply Material Protection High Efficiency of Filtration, 3D Design for Better Fit the…: $89.98 ($4.50 / mask)

Of course, you can get protection that’s as good or perhaps even better if you decide to make your own face masks.

Last week, we gave our readers an awesome guide that explained how to make coronavirus face masks at home quickly and easily. In fact, those DIY face masks are so easy to make that you don’t even have to sew. Most of the materials you need to make those particular masks are simple things that you already have lying around your house. There are really only two things you need that might not already be readily available, and they’re both in stock and shipping now from Amazon. Definitely check out our guide for more details.

As we said, those masks are great because they’re very easy to make and they’re far more effective than just a t-shirt or a scarf. That said, they’re nowhere near as effective as medical-grade face masks that some people wear. The CDC is quite clear that “any face covering is better than nothing,” but you still shouldn’t buy N95 face masks even if you do manage to find them online or in a nearby store. Doctors, nurses, first responders, and others on the front lines of the war against the novel coronavirus have a far greater need than you do, and there is still a terrible shortage of masks and other PPE.

While it’s true that something is better than nothing, there are certainly degrees of effectiveness based on the materials and design you use. The masks in the guide linked above are more effective than any basic cloth masks, for example, but now we’ve found a guide for DIY coronavirus face masks that are even more effective than those. The guide comes from the same YouTube channel, and the vlogger basically tried to reverse-engineer an N95 mask. The end result is NOT as effective as a medical-grade respirator, of course, but it’s easily one of the best face mask designs we’ve come across. In fact, it even has its own integrated virus neutralizer.

That said, this mask is a bit more complicated than the one above and there are definitely more materials that you’ll need to make it. Here’s the full materials list:

The OnePlus 8 Pro’s crazy secret camera feature went viral a few days ago when several users discovered that you can use a color filter to see through some materials, including plastic and textiles. Several OnePlus 8 Pro users tried the trick, posting the results on social media. This X-ray vision mode is unique to the new OnePlus phone and seems to be a harmless gimmick. You can’t actually see through anything that matters. But it’s easy to understand why the feature could be upsetting to some people, and the Chinese smartphone maker is taking a cautious approach to the unexpected problem. The color filter will be removed via a software update.

Why the $699 Pixel 5 might be too expensive

%name Why the $699 Pixel 5 might be too expensive by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley
  • The Pixel 5, starting at $699, sounds like a much better deal than last year’s Pixel phones and several 2020 Android flagships.
  • But that’s not entirely so, as the Pixel 5 is rumored to feature mid-range specs, which would be a first for the Pixel series.
  • There’s also increased competition from iPhone, as Apple’s fall lineup will be more aggressive than ever.
  • Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

Google’s Pixel phones have appeared in a few leaks on Monday. The Pixel 4a that’s reportedly going to be unveiled in early June, and the Pixel 5 is due in October. One of the new reports said Google will remove the radar chip from Pixel 5. The more exciting rumor came from a Google survey that listed purported prices for the Pixel 4a and Pixel 5. The cheaper phone might cost $349, according to this questionnaire. Pixel 5 will start at $699. That sounds like a great price to pay for a brand new Pixel 5 premium phone in a world where the Galaxy S20 and OnePlus 8 Pro start at $999. It’s even cheaper than the Pixel 4’s original $799 price and matches the iPhone 11’s $699 tag. The problem is that even a $699 Pixel 5 might be too expensive if a particular rumor is to be believed.

Still waiting on a stimulus check? You might get yours as a prepaid debit card

%name Still waiting on a stimulus check? You might get yours as a prepaid debit card by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley
  • Some of the millions of Americans who are still waiting to receive their coronavirus stimulus payment will be getting theirs in a format that’s different from the paper checks and direct-deposited payments that have been sent out so far.
  • The Treasury Dept. announced on Monday that it will begin mailing out almost 4 million stimulus payments this week in the form of free, prepaid debit cards.
  • Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

If you caught our report from earlier today, then you’re aware that the deadline has now passed for you to give the IRS your direct deposit banking information so that the tax agency can quickly send out your coronavirus stimulus check. Last Wednesday was the deadline to give the IRS that information, which means that going forward the agency will deposit funds into the accounts of everyone remaining who’s already shared their bank details, in addition to sending out paper checks to most everybody else.

We say “most everybody else,” because on Monday the Treasury Dept. also announced a third way that some of you will be receiving your stimulus payment, which will be as much as $1,200 for individuals and up to $2,400 for married couples (along with an extra $500 for each eligible child). Starting this week, Treasury and the IRS are sending out almost 4 million coronavirus stimulus payments in the form of prepaid debit cards in lieu of paper checks. For some people, this will no doubt be a relief, since it collapses the time between receiving the money and being able to use it. You don’t have to drive to your bank to deposit the check or use a mobile app to scan it and wait for it to show up in your account. The debit card is essentially money in your hand, ready to be spent immediately — in-person, or online.
