Nanoleaf today launched Lines Skins, which are designed to attach to the Nanoleaf Lines lights to change the color of the plastic bars to allow them to better blend in with a room's design.
Priced at $20, the Skins are available in either matte black or matte pink, and are able to fit over the Nanoleaf Lines bars and connectors, which are white by default. Each package includes nine skins and nine mounting caps, which is enough to fit over the default Lines package.
Skins change the look of the Nanoleaf Line lights both when they are activated and when they're turned off as the Lines offer up light that radiates out from the light bars. If you're unfamiliar with Lines, it is Nanoleaf's newest lighting product. Lines are modular light bars that feature backlit illumination and that can be arranged into different patterns and shapes.

Apple is developing an all-new operating system that is essentially a mix of tvOS, watchOS, and iOS, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.
In a report this week, he said the operating system will feature a grid of icons, widgets, and apps, along with customizable clock faces.
The new software platform is intended for Apple's long-rumored smart home hub. With built-in facial recognition,...

Apple this year acquired Israeli startup Q.ai for close to $2 billion, according to the Financial Times. That would make this Apple's second-biggest acquisition ever, after it paid $3 billion for the popular headphone maker Beats in 2014.
This is also the largest known Apple acquisition since the company purchased Intel's smartphone modem business and patents for $1 billion in 2019.

We're less than two months out from the launch of Apple's premium next-generation smartphone lineup, and while we're not expecting a dramatic change in terms of functionality, there are still several enhancements rumored to be coming to the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max.
One thing worth noting is that Apple is reportedly planning a major change to its iPhone release cycle this year,...
Every time I see this photo I can't help but notice that the iMac isn't aligned center.
That would drive me crazy, especially since the desk could easily be lightened on the wall, the chair should have been pushed in and centered for the picture too.
Just because you are able to find some Chinese knockoffs doesn't mean they are the same quality or have the same functionality. A lot of this stuff is blessed with terrible apps, has no Wifi connectivity, doesn't integrate with the Home app, doesn't work as a light system etc.
You're absolutely right, of course. But who tells us that this stuff is not also made in China? Like most things, actually... I just want to point out how the price horizon of hardware in China is. While Apple completes its e.g. there produced hardware with a lot of costly development and service and generally makes it possible, I recognize with Nanoleaf only a possible UL approval as American own work, the development effort is insignificant, the cost difference is huge.
These actually look halfway decent. I'm a fan of indirect light on the walls. I have a few lights that I shine up on the wall behind my Mac to give a good backlight and reduce glare. The other Nanoleaf stuff screamed Twitch gamer to me. This is a bit more subtle and doesn't suffer from the uneven lighting panels since it's indirect. I'm more interested in being able to change the white light temperature throughout the day since I don't have windows. I may even rig up a light sensor outside to control the light level indoors so it feels more natural and not only changes throughout the day but with passing clouds, etc. At some point I think I'm going to build a large desk into the 10ft nook where my office is in my studio space and I may incorporate this into the design when planning. Sounds like a fun project for winter this year. I'm excited to do some next-level built-in cable management and make everything look super slick and tidy. I want to find a large 10ft x 2ft x 2in thick slab of hardwood, if possible, to span the entire nook. Right now I have a sturdy steel case style desk that is awkward in the space as it doesn't span all the way and sticks out on one end and looks drab.
Buy on the Internet, and look at Chinese suppliers and prices for similar products. In China, there are many panels with touch or app-controllable stuff and everything in a wide variety. What you write is absolutely wrong in content. Why are you writing this?
Because most of that crap is garbage that isn't UL listed and may burn my house down.
Apple's first foldable iPhone, with a book-style design featuring a ~5.5-inch outer display and a ~7.8-inch inner display with a minimal crease down the middle.
