Mirage Smart Display Speaker
Posted in: Today's Chili
For many of us, having a personal speaker system at home is nothing new. Audiophiles are willing to invest tens of thousands to obtain the very best audio quality possible for their everyday listening experience, while the rest of us would most probably settle for a really decent set of earphones to tide us by. What happens when you have a speaker that is connected to Alexa, and also comes with a display to boot? This unique idea is the basis of the Mirage Smart Display Speaker from Cleer Inc.
Delivering a totally innovative spin in the realm of smart home entertainment, the Mirage Smart Display Speaker boasts of a unique curved display that is accompanied by the ability to dispense 360-degree sound. Underneath it all, the Mirage Smart Display Speaker will have the Qualcomm APQ8053 Smart Audio Platform to keep it running, where it incorporates flexible Bluetooth 4.2 + BLE in addition to Wi-Fi connectivity. Of course, this is not forgetting complete Alexa integration in order to have it deliver powerful and immersive connected experiences for the home user.
The curved display itself is guaranteed to turn heads and gain the attention of whoever looks at it, where it comprises of a curved 7.8-inch flexible AMOLED display that is capable of delivering an immersive viewing experience regardless of which particular angle you are looking from. With this special combination of video and audio output, you can always check out your schedule at a glance, remain in contact with family members, and even sing along to that brand new Top 100 hit with lyrics appearing on the display.
Cleer Inc. has also ensured that the integrated LED lighting will be able to have the Mirage Smart Display Speaker be at home in virtually any office or home environment. In Music Mode, the LED light will pulse in a synchronized manner to the current tune being played. Listeners will appreciate the rich and immersive, 360-degree audio attributed to the ringed 3.1 channel speaker array with passive radiator. With a $499.99 asking price, the Mirage Smart Display Speaker is certainly worthy of an inclusion in any home.

Apple has made a ton of money over the years, which is largely thanks to the iPhone. However it also seems that the company could be taking a loss on some of their other products in a bid to try to get customers to get on board its ecosystem, such as the Apple TV and the HomePod smart speaker.
This is according to John Gruber during his podcast “The Talk Show” in which he claims that Apple is apparently selling the Apple TV at cost, meaning that little to no profit is made with every unit sold. He also claims that the HomePod is actually being sold at a loss despite its heftier price tag compared to the competition.
According to Gruber, “One thing I’ve heard from a reliable little birdie is Apple effectively sells [Apple TV] at cost. Like they really are like $180 a box. And you think, ‘wow, this is amazing, it has an A10 processor, which we know is super fast, and has crazy good graphics.’ I’ve heard the same thing about HomePod too. Like, why is HomePod so much more expensive than these other speakers you can talk to? I have reason to believe Apple actually sells it at a loss. I can’t prove it, I don’t think it’s a big loss.”
It is surprising if this is true, and given that Gruber tends to have pretty good inside information, there is a chance he could be right. However not everyone agrees with Gruber where according to Mark Gurman (via 9to5Mac), he has refuted those claims and suggested that both the Apple TV and HomePod are being sold at profit.

With the recent cold snap here in the midwest, I’ve been downing cups of tea like they’re going out of style. At times, I even imagine taking a swim in some chai or mint tea since it smells so good. Of course, if you’re going to fill a swimming pool with tea, you’re going to need some pool floaties. Or is that Float-Teas?
The wacky minds over at Fred came up with these cute and clever tea infusers that look like inflatable pool floats. But not to worry about keeping these ones filled with air. They’re actually made from stainless steel, and offer a compartment inside for your loose tea. Simply fill, and float in a mug of hot water, and your mini pool will soon be filled with a delightfully-fragrant beverage.
The Float-Tea is available in pink flamingo, unicorn, and swan designs, and they’re just $15 each from Fred. Now if only tea water was blue or green instead of brown…

With the rise of unconventional smartphone designs, from elevating cameras to sliding backs to button-less whole slabs of glass, users might be left wondering if all these fanciness comes at the price of durability and reliability. The good news is that phones have become even more resilient these, even if it means they’re harder to repair, too. The slightly bad … Continue reading
