Nothing Phone 3a And 3a Pro: Leaked Design, Specs And Price Before Release

Posted in: Today's Chili

Two promotional videos of the upcoming Nothing Phone (3a) and (3a) Pro have surfaced online, confirming previously leaked design details and specifications while revealing new information. The Nothing Phone (3a) Pro will feature a 3x periscope telephoto camera with computational enhancements enabling 6x lossless-like zoom. Additionally, the camera appears to support macro photography, suggesting close-distance focusing capabilities.

The standard Nothing Phone (3a), in contrast, comes with a 2x telephoto camera, which can achieve 4x lossless zoom in still photography. However, there is no mention of macro functionality for this model.

Both devices will leverage the TrueLens Engine 3.0 to enhance camera performance, alongside other AI-driven optimizations aimed at improving user experience. The smartphones will be powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 processor and feature 6.77-inch OLED displays, details that had already been revealed through prior leaks.

Apple reportedly plans to combine its modem with future processors as a single package

Posted in: Today's Chili

Apple introduced its first in-house cellular modem, the C1, last week with the announcement of the not-so-budget iPhone 16e, and while it didn’t get into too much detail about it, the company reportedly has some big plans for future iterations. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, “Apple intends to eventually meld the modem component into the main processor.” Integrating the modem into the main processor could have energy and cost benefits, but that design is still a ways off. We’ll likely see the C2 and C3 without it first, which the company is already testing according to Gurman, and the integrated design won’t follow until “2028 at the earliest

During its unveiling, Apple called the new C1 modem its “most power-efficient modem ever in an iPhone.” The $599 iPhone 16e also has an A18 chip (but with four GPU cores) and supports Apple Intelligence, even if that’s not what people actually wanted out of it.

YouTube Premium Lite: Affordable Plan With Limited Ads Nears Launch

Posted in: Today's Chili

Google has reportedly been developing a Lite version of YouTube Premium, which appears to be nearing its launch, according to Bloomberg. A new and more affordable subscription plan is expected to be introduced in countries such as the U.S., Australia, Germany, and Thailand, catering to users who prefer watching non-music video content without committing to the full premium experience.

Previously, YouTube tested an ad-free plan under the name “Premium Lite,” but it was discontinued in 2023— However, in October of the same year, Google confirmed to The Verge that it was working on an improved version of this offering. Paul Pennington, a YouTube representative, previously stated that the company aims to introduce a new subscription tier with mostly ad-free video content while planning to expand its availability in the future. However, details on the launch date, availability, and exact pricing remain unclear.

Premium Lite coming back?

According to leaks, YouTube Premium Lite is expected to cost $11.99 per month, which is half the price of the full YouTube Premium subscription ($22.99). Unlike the standard Premium plan, the Lite version may still include ads in licensed music videos, YouTube Shorts, and search/browsing results.

Additionally, Premium Lite will not include access to YouTube Music Premium, video downloads, or features like offline playback, background play, and screen-off listening. For comparison, the previous YouTube Premium Lite was completely ad-free but was only available in select European countries, including Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, and Sweden.

Grok 3 Launches With Voice Assistant Mode In Beta

Posted in: Today's Chili

Grok 3, the latest version of the AI integrated into X/Twitter, was officially launched on June 20; According to Elon Musk, this new iteration surpasses other artificial intelligence models in capability and is available for free for a limited time.

One of the major highlights of Grok 3 is the introduction of a voice assistant mode, which Musk confirmed in an official announcement. This new feature, now part of the Grok AI app, positions the AI as a competitor to voice assistants such as Siri, ChatGPT, and Gemini. The announcement described it as an “early beta,” meaning that users may encounter occasional issues. However, Musk assured that any problems will be resolved promptly, calling the feature “amazing.”

Another notable addition to Grok 3 is the availability of different voices and personalities. According to a post by the user Tech Dev Notes, which Musk reshared, the AI offers two distinct voice options—Ara (female) and Rex (male). Additionally, users can choose from several personalities, including a best friend, an annoyed persona, a genius, a romantic character, or even a “stoned” personality. This customization suggests that Grok 3 is designed to provide a more engaging and adaptable user experience.

At present, the new version of Grok is only accessible via the Grok AI app, which is available for download on the Apple App Store for iOS devices—Android users will have to wait a bit longer, as the app remains in the pre-registration phase on the Google Play Store. With these new features, Grok 3 aims to establish itself as a strong contender in the evolving AI assistant landscape.

If you liked the Playdate game Root Bear, you should check out Pup Cup

Posted in: Today's Chili

You’ve heard of roguelike, you’ve heard of Soulslike, but have you ever heard of Rootlike? Root Bear is one of those games that just perfectly encapsulates the spirit of Playdate; it’s silly as hell, uses the crank and will engage your competitive side as you rack up tips from soda-drinking bears and try to beat your own high score. The game has been a massive success, so it’s no surprise to see it’s now inspired the development of other games in its style. Well, one game at least. Pup Cup, which recently arrived on the Playdate Catalog from developer Ledbetter Games, is a “Root-like score-chaser” where instead of serving soda to bears, you’re making delicious sweet treats for dogs (and a few other surprise guests).

In Pup Cup, you have 60 seconds to earn as many tail-wags as possible from the dogs who show up to your whipped cream stand. Some might want a towering heap, while others just want a little taste. The key is to fill the pup cup only to the height of the little box hovering over it, or the “Good Boy Zone,” by putting the crank in the forward position. If you serve too much, whipped cream is going to splat all over the place. But too little will leave the dogs disappointed, and who wants that?

There’s also Bork Mode, in which you can pet the dogs and add toppings, like a squeaky rubber duck, to earn yourself some more time. This makes things a little more complicated, though, as you have to pay attention to the D-pad icon that will briefly flash next to the dog in order to know which button to press, and you have to coordinate this correctly with the timing of your pour.

Pup Cup is a feel-good take on Root Bear. The gameplay is a little more relaxed, and it’s hard not to smile at the rotation of cute dogs popping up on your screen. Some of them wear outfits and accessories, and they may end up with a swirl of whipped cream on their nose. Each dog has its own little anxiously waiting animation, and happy customers will give you heart eyes when their orders have been fulfilled. It’s adorably goofy. You might even encounter a familiar knife-wielding goose or robotic dog.

As if all that wasn’t wholesome enough, the team also went out and served pup cups to dogs IRL during the Puppy Bowl. You can get Pup Cup on the Playdate Catalog for $3.
