Yes, we're already talkin' Apple Vision Pro 2 — how it's reportedly 'better' than the first

Apple Vision Pro headset on display

We're still (allegedly) just a month or two away from the Apple Vision Pro's long-awaited launch date, but rumors are already flying around about the second mixed-reality headset from Apple.

Citing market research firm Omdia, the Korean tech outlet The Elec reported that Apple is already planning display upgrades for the Apple Vision Pro 2.

The nitty-gritty tech details are a bit obtuse for the average person, but the gist of it is that Apple reportedly plans on upgrading the Vision Pro's WOLED (with a color filter) display to an RGD OLEDoS display in Vision Pro 2.

How is the rumored Apple Vision Pro 2's display better than its predecessor?

As MacRumors explained, the Vision Pro 2's display tech would negate the need for a color filter, thus producing much better brightness at higher efficiency than the headset Apple is set to launch in early 2024.

It's not exactly shocking to hear that a sequel to Vision Pro would include better display tech than the original, but knowing exactly how it will be better is a bit surprising given the first headset hasn't even launched yet.

Omdia believes the Vision Pro 2 will launch in 2027, backing up a previous prediction from Apple prognosticator Ming-Chi Kuo. In the meantime, Apple might launch a cheaper alternative to the Vision Pro (which is set to cost $3,500), but it's unclear when, or even if, that will actually happen. If it does, it will almost certainly not include the upgraded display features discussed in the Omdia report, but hey, you never know.

We'll find out if any of this is true in three years.

Instagram accidentally reinstated Pornhub’s banned account

After years of on-and-off temporary suspensions, Instagram permanently banned Pornhub’s account in September. Then, for a short period of time this weekend, the account was reinstated. By Tuesday, it was permanently banned again. “This was done in error,” an Instagram spokesperson told TechCrunch. “As we’ve said previously, we permanently disabled this Instagram account for repeatedly violating our policies.” Instagram’s content guidelines prohibit  nudity and sexual solicitation . A Pornhub spokesperson told TechCrunch, though, that they believe the adult streaming platform’s account did not violate any guidelines. Instagram has not commented on the exact reasoning for the ban, or which policies the account violated. It’s worrying from a moderation perspective if a permanently banned Instagram account can accidentally get switched back on. Pornhub told TechCrunch that its account even received a notice from Instagram, stating that its ban had been a mistake (that message itself w

A scientist examines computer images of DNA models. Getty Images Police in Colorado have cracked the cold cases of four women killed 40 years ago. Denver PD said genetic genealogy and DNA analysis helped them identify the serial killer. He had died by suicide in jail in 1981. DNA from his exhumed body matched evidence from the murders. Police in Colorado have cracked the code on four murder cases that went unsolved for 40 years, using DNA from the killer's exhumed body. The cases pertain to four women killed in the Denver metro area between 1978 and 1981. They were 33-year-old Madeleine Furey-Livaudais, 53-year-old Dolores Barajas, 27-year-old Gwendolyn Harris, and 17-year-old Antoinette Parks. The four women were stabbed to death. Denver Police Commander Matt Clark said in a press conference Friday that there was an "underlying sexual component" to the murders but didn't elaborate further. In 2009, a detective reviewed Parks' case and picked several p
