Nothing Headphone 1: Expected design
According to a report by 9To5Google, images of the upcoming Nothing Headphone 1 have surfaced online, suggesting that the headphones will feature the brand's signature transparent aesthetic. The ear cups appear squarish with rounded corners—somewhat reminiscent of the Apple AirPods Max—while a circular transparent panel on top gives it the distinctive Nothing design.
The headband seems to include top cushioning for comfort and a hinged design that allows the cups to fold flat. According to the report, the right ear cup houses two physical control buttons, while the left one bears 'Sound by KEF' branding, confirming Nothing's previously announced partnership with British audio company KEF.
The alleged Nothing Headphone 1 design has sparked mixed reactions online—including from competing brands. On Reddit, the official account of the German audio brand Sennheiser commented on the design, stating:
'The only way we'd make a design like that is if we were bought out again and had the best salespeople. Even then..'
In response, Nothing CEO Carl Pei took to X to fire back with a tongue-in-cheek reply: 'Says the company whose headphones look like PC cooling fans. I know because I've used my HD 650 for 10 years.'

Realme 15 confirmed to launch soon in India, AI features teased: Details
The Realme 15 series is soon going to be available in the Indian market, and the company has confirmed this through a teaser. The details reveal that both the Realme 15 5G, as well as the Realme 15 Pro 5G, are going to be available in India. However, if you are wondering if there is a release date, there is not one, as it has not been announced. Here is everything we know about the new models so far. Read on. Realme 15 series is expected soon in India.(Realme) Also Read: Lenovo Yoga Tab Plus with 3K display confirmed to launch in India; specs revealed on Amazon The company's teaser on X, formerly known as Twitter, details that the Realme 15 Pro, as well as the 15 5G, are going to be coming soon with the tagline, "Everything Plus, Now in Pro.'And 'AI Party Phone." Now, it is quite vague as to what "AI party phone" means, but it does suggest that the phones could be big on AI features. Having said that Realme's branding does suggest that features previously reserved for the Plus line of Realme phones could finally make their way to the Realme 15 Pro. At the very same time, the phones have always been mid-rangers, so that is worth keeping in mind as well. Reports suggest that the phone could be offered with up to 12 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage. As for other specifications, reports do mention that they could get the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset, alongside a triple camera system, and a 6300 mAh battery. Talking specifally about the Realme 15 Pro (model RMX5101), it could be vailable in four variants, ranging from 8GB RAM with 128GB storage to 12GB RAM with 512GB storage. Having said that, these specifications should be taken with a grain of salt considering Realme is yet to reveal the details officially. Realme 15 Series Release Date (Expected) Considering June is almost over and Realme is only teasing the phone so far, it would not be out of the ordinary for the 15 series to launch in the month of July or perhaps early August. It should be noted that Realme's previous series, the Realme 14 Pro and 14 Pro+, were launched in January of this year, making it only six months since their release.

Apple secretly working on a more affordable MacBook with iPhone chip, launch likely by 2026
We might soon get a MacBook with an iPhone chip. If reports are to be believed, Apple is currently working on a new addition to its MacBook lineup: a more affordable model powered by the iPhone's A-series silicon instead of its traditional M-series chips. According to Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the company is planning to begin mass production of its new, budget-friendly MacBook by late 2025 or early his latest post on X, Kuo reveals that the affordable MacBook would use the A18 Pro chip — the same chip powering the iPhone 16 Pro series. It is also expected to feature a 13-inch display and could be offered in multiple casing colours, including silver, blue, pink, and yellow. 'Expected to enter mass production in late 4Q25 or early 1Q26, with an approximately 13-inch display and powered by the A18 Pro processor. Potential casing colours include silver, blue, pink, and yellow,' he writes in his post on X (formerly Twitter).Kuo also estimates that Apple will ship between 5–7 million units of the new MacBook with the A18 Pro chip in 2026. In 2025, MacBook sales are estimated to reach around 20 million units. 'Apple aims to return total MacBook shipments to the COVID-19 peak of around 25 million units in 2026 (vs. an estimated 20 million units in 2025).'More affordable than the MacBook Airadvertisement Currently, Apple's entry-level notebook PC is the MacBook Air, priced at Rs 99,900. However, the rumoured MacBook with an A-series chip is expected to fall below that price point, although Kuo's report does not specify how much cheaper it will be.A18 Pro chip in the iPhone 16 ProMeanwhile, Apple has not yet hinted at the possibility of an affordable MacBook or Mac with the A18 Pro chip. However, it's possible the company is aiming to introduce a new foldable MacBook — similar to A-series chip iPads — to reach a more budget-friendly market segment. This would also mark the first time a MacBook features an A-series chip rather than the Mac-specific M-series, which debuted with the M1 in 2020 and now powers all current said, the A18 Pro chip is no slouch. Apple introduced the A18 Pro last year with the iPhone 16 Pro series. The company called this chip 'the brains behind Apple Intelligence,' highlighting its significantly improved CPU and GPU, a 16-core Neural Engine, and up to 2x faster ray-tracing capabilities compared to the A17 Pro highlights that the A18 Pro's Neural Engine, in particular, is designed to accelerate on-device machine learning tasks, making it well-suited to Apple's increasing focus on AI-driven features. So, with the A18 Pro chip in a Mac, we could see an affordable MacBook that also offers access to Apple Intelligence features.- Ends
