Kindle, take note: It’s time for a pocket-sized Scribe

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority Amazon’s Kindle Scribe shines at home or in the office, where its oversized canvas is perfect for notes and sketches. Take it on the road, though, and it quickly feels cumbersome. That’s why reMarkable’s new Paper Pro Move feels like a direct challenge. If reMarkable can shrink its notepad to a 7.3-inch form, Amazon has no excuse. It’s time for a pocket-sized Scribe.

Any ebook reader will let you cram a Beauty and the Beast-sized library’s worth of books in your pocket, but so will your phone. An ebook reader offers a more book-like reading experience, with fewer distractions and less eye strain, and many include extra features, like adjustable frontlighting. Some really are pocketable. Others are waterproof or offer physical page-turning buttons, while a few even let you take notes. I’ve been using ebook readers for nearly a decade, and I’ve gone hands-on

Amazon Thinks It Can Kick Meta Ray-Bans’ Ass, Report Says

There’s yet another power player entering the smart glasses space, and it’s ready to deliver on the promise of in-lens display specs. You see what I did there? Deliver? Sorry, that’s the best I got—I asked my Meta Ray-Bans to help write another joke, but they started playing Spotify instead. No, but seriously, Amazon is developing smart glasses, according to a report from The Information, and they sound like they’re designed specifically to tackle Meta and its rumored-to-be Hypernova glasses.

Amazon is reportedly developing separate AR glasses for customers and its drivers

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-29 17:08:26

Amazon may be muscling into the field of augmented reality glasses. According to a report by The Information, sources claimed that the company is working on AR glasses for consumers, allegedly with plans to release the product in late 2026 or early 2027. Insiders told the publication that the project, internally dubbed Jayhawk, would equip AR glasses with microphones, speakers, a camera and a full-color display in one eye. Amazon is reportedly using Chinese company Meta-Bounds for the AR tech.

Amazon wants to build the Echo of AR glasses

TL;DR Amazon is supposedly working on two pairs of AR glasses. A larger, monochrome model could assist its delivery drivers and may debut in the first half of next year. The more compact, color-screen consumer glasses might not arrive until 2027. Amazon’s track record with tech hardware is a bit mixed, to put it lightly. We’ve seen some epic failures over the years, like the disaster that was the Fire Phone, and while its Echo smart speakers have been market leaders, it’s still very unclear i

Amazon Music launches AI-powered weekly playlists based on 'preferences and mood'

Amazon Music has just launched new AI-powered weekly playlists based on the "preferences and mood" of listeners. This just means it scrapes what you've already been listening to and extrapolates further. It doesn't apply modern technology to gauge the actual mood of users.
