The latest iteration of Meta's smart glasses has arrived and, as rumored, they are more customizable, particularly for people who need prescription lenses. Meta and Ray-Ban parent company EssilorLuxottica revealed two new styles of frames: the Ray-Ban Meta Blayzer Optics and Scriber Optics, which will start at $499 a pair.
The latest glasses are still considered to be part of the "Gen 2" Ray-Ban Meta glasses, but they do come with a few upgrades that make it easier to get a personalized fit. According to EssilorLuxottica, both styles have somewhat slimmer frames, swappable nosepads and adjustable temple tips so wearers can get a better fit. And, as the "optics" branding implies, the new frame styles are also compatible with a wider variety of prescription lenses, including progressive lenses and transition lenses.
The Blayzer style frames are more square, similar to the existing Wayfarer glasses, while the Scriber version is a little more rounded, like the "Headliner" style frames. Both come in a variety of colors including some translucent styles and are available now for pre-order on Meta's website and will be on sale April 14. The "optics" lineup will also be sold at more physical retail stores, including LensCrafters, Sunglass Hut, Salmoiraghi & Viganò, Apollo, Grand Vision Optical, Vision Express and other locations that are part of EssilorLuxottica's distribution network.
The round, "Scriber" frames.

Basketball player Stephen Curry has long collaborated with Google, and last year took on the role of "Performance Advisor" at the company as part of a multi-year partnership. It appears the first product of this union is "coming soon," based on a video posted to Curry's Instagram account. The 15-second clip shows shots of Curry playing with a basketball, and a gray-and-orange band sits conspicuously on his left wrist. Interspersed are the words "A new relationship with your health coming soon," and the video ends on the Google logo.
We reached out to Google for comment and details, and the company said "Our Performance Advisor has been working with the team to cook up something special ??. More to share soon."

As of April 1, Gmail will have been around for 22 years. Many of us have a poorly chosen email address that's laced with regret, but we're now stuck with it. We've perhaps had it for longer than most college students have been alive and that's how others get in touch with us. Google is now giving us a chance to move on and change our Gmail address to something more appropriate.
All users in the US can now change their Google Account username — the bit before the @ in your Gmail address. Google said in December that it was gradually rolling out this option to all users.
To change your Google Account username, go to the email settings page. From there, click or tap on Personal info Email Google Account email. If the ability to alter your username has been enabled on your account, you'll see a Change Google Account email option. Click on this to start modifying your username.
You'll only be able to change your username once every

SpaceX has lost contact with Starlink satellite 34343 after it suffered an unspecified anomaly on March 29 while it was in orbit, the company has announced on X. The event happened while the satellite was approximately 348 miles above our planet. Since that is a relatively low altitude, SpaceX's analysis showed that the remains of the satellite pose no risk to the International Space Station or the upcoming launch of the Artemis II mission. It also won't affect the company's Transporter-16 mission, which launched with small satellites from its clients on March 30.
In its statement, SpaceX also said that it will monitor any trackable debris, indicating that the satellite is no longer in one piece. LeoLabs, an American company tracking satellites in Low Earth Orbit, said it detected a "fragment creation event" involving Starlink 34343 on March 29. It also mentioned that this event is similar to another incident that happened on December 17, 2025. SpaceX had lost Starlink satellites to events like geomagnetic storms in the past, but it doesn't seem like these two recent incidents were caused by external factors. The company has yet to announce what led to the anomalies, but LeoLabs believes that both of them were "likely caused by an internal energetic source rather than a collision with space debris or another object."
At the moment, the Starlink team i
