AirPods Pro 3 Review: Skating to Where the Puck Is Going, Not Where It Has Been

gizmodo.com Raymond Wong 2025-09-24 11:00:03

2025 Almost three years after Apple introduced the original AirPods Pro 2 (updated with USB-C in 2023) with category-defining sound quality and active noise cancellation (ANC), I can safely say that just about every company making ANC wireless earbuds has caught up or surpassed them, and often with buds that are sold for less than $250. Basic wireless earbuds features—good audio, good ANC, and good battery life—are table stakes, and each of these is improved on AirPods Pro 3. Apple’s third-gen

Forget the new AirPods Pro 3, I’d stick with your smartwatch for heart rate tracking

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority Apple’s newest AirPods Pro 3 arrive with sleek design upgrades and plenty of hype.

Some Heart Attacks Might Be Triggered by Germs

gizmodo.com Ed Cara 2025-10-05 01:30:27

Germs might be even worse for us than we thought. New research suggests that certain infections could be a contributing factor to heart attacks. Scientists in Finland and the UK conducted the study, which examined arterial plaques taken from people who died from heart disease and others. They found these plaques often contained a dormant layer of bacterial biofilm; they also found evidence that bacteria released from this biofilm can then trigger heart attacks. Though not yet definitive, the st

A team of researchers in the UK say their AI-powered stethoscope can detect three different heart conditions in just 15 seconds. It's also, they readily admit, horrendously inaccurate. Placed over the chest, the "smart" gizmo analyzes the rhythms of the heartbeat and blood flow that're undetectable to the human ear, while also performing a quick electrocardiogram, or ECG, which is a test that gauges your heart's electrical activity.

Millions of people worldwide have reason to be thankful that Swedish engineer Rune Elmqvist decided not to practice medicine. Although qualified as a doctor, he chose to invent medical equipment instead. In 1949, while working at Elema-Schonander (later Siemens-Elema), in Stockholm, he applied for a patent for the Mingograph, the first inkjet printer.
