Some devices easily stand out in their category, and in the case of headphones, that's Sony's WH-1000XM5 model. If you've been coveting our favorite wireless headphones, there's good news: Sony's WH-1000XM5 headphones are currently down to $280 from $400 — a 30 percent discount. Woot is offering them at this low price for the next four days or until they sell out. Though Amazon owns Woot, it doesn't have the same return policy as its parent company.
Sony's WH-1000XM5 are great for many reasons — we gave them a 95 in our review for a reason — but one of their best features is how incredibly comfy they are when worn. They only weigh 0.14 ounces less than the WH-1000XM4s, but improved weight distribution and a slimmer headband mean they feel much lighter on your head and ears.
Tech-wise, the M5s offer double the processors and microphones devoted to noise canceling compared to the M4. Then there are 30mm carbon fiber drivers, which give music greater depth, and DSEE Extreme, which boosts the sound quality. The only aspect of the headphones that's frustrating compared to their predecessor is storage. The M5s don't fold, so their storage case is bulky to carry around.

A key feature of Apple's Vision Pro VR, er, spatial computing headset is Personas that that lets people see a digital version of themselves during calls, Zoom meetings, etc. At launch, they looked a bit creepy, but Apple has improved them considerably in the latest release, according to posts on X spotted by MacRumors. They're now more realistic, so users look less like impressionist paintings and more like humans.
Once the visionOS 1.1 update is installed, you'll be prompted to recapture your Persona to get the "latest appearance updates" — this is apparently done in part with the headset off and pointing at your face. Most users feel the updated Personas are better, and visually, they look less blurry and a touch more realistic, plus the proportions seem better.
So, maybe it's just me, but I feel like the visionOS 1.1 beta vastly improves the Persona feature.

Is it still uncanny and creepy? Yeah, but I don't look like Stalin anymore. pic.twitter.com/uYGUugHFSl
As a reminder, Personas are a digital representing of the users created by data from the headset's sensors and a new machine learning algorithm. They're designed to be an "authentic spatial representation" of someone that shows their facial expressions and hand movements — so you won't be a dork in a mask on group calls.
If you need to do that, though, a similar feature called EyeSight shows other people a digital version of your eyes when you're wearing the Vision Pro. Apple still calls Personas a beta feature and provides detailed instructions to get the best results.

While Toyota helped lead the hybrid charge with its Prius, the company has been less active in EV production. But that might be in the past, as Toyota has announced another $1.3 billion for its Kentucky facility, with a focus on EVs. In particular, the company is building a new three-row electric SUV that will be available for US customers.
Toyota's Kentucky operation is its flagship facility, with nearly 9,400 employees. "Today's announcement reflects our commitment to vehicle electrification and further reinvesting in our US operations," Kerry Creech, president of Toyota Kentucky, said in a release. "Generations of our team members helped prepare for this opportunity, and we will continue leading the charge into the future by remaining true to who we are as a company and putting our people first for generations to come."
Little is known so far about the three-row electric SUV, as Toyota only mentions it briefly in relation to the investment. However, it follows the company's prior announcement of its Urban SUV concept slated to launch in Europe this year.
The $1.3 billion investment will also go towards creating a battery pack assembly line at its Kentucky factory (a separate manufacturing plant in North Carolina produces the batteries). Toyota has big plans for its battery production, previously announcing three battery ranges focused on higher performance and low cost slated for 2026 and onward. The company is also working on its first solid-state batteries, which have the potential to charge an EV from 10 to 80 percent in 10 minutes. Toyota's bZ4X EV currently takes 32 minutes to do so.
