HTC VIVE Eagle: Amazon listing teases September launch at $499

HTC's VIVE Eagle AR glasses briefly appeared on Amazon with a September 1 launch and a $499 price, but the listing was pulled and it’s unclear if pre-orders will resume. The glasses weigh 49g, run on Snapdragon AR1 with 4GB RAM/32GB storage, offer about 36 hours of total battery life (4.5 hours for music), and operate on Wear OS with features like voice-to-text notes, real-time translation in 12 dialects, a 12MP ultra-wide camera, and a camera-usage LED indicator. They come in several colors, have IP54 protection, and cost roughly $200 more than Ray-Ban Meta glasses.

Holding the Trump Phone: A Gold-Tinted Midrange Mystery

The Verge’s Allison Johnson describes holding the much‑anticipated Trump Phone, a lightweight midrange Android with a gaudy gold finish and oversized branding; iFixit confirms it’s essentially an HTC U24 Pro in disguise, with Truth Social preinstalled (removable), and with shipping already delayed to most customers, making the device rarer than a truly premium phone.

Trump Mobile T1 Turns Out to Be an HTC U24 Pro Lookalike, Teardown Confirms

A teardown by iFixit shows the Trump Mobile T1 is essentially the HTC U24 Pro in disguise, with near-identical design and likely built by an ODM rather than being made in the USA; HTC’s mobile division was sold to Google years ago, and the T1 is expected to use the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3, matching the U24 Pro’s specs.

Trump's Golden Cage Phone Turns a Two-Year-Old Device into a Vanity Gadget

The Trump Mobile T1 is essentially an HTC U24 Pro rebranded with Trump branding—a gilded, tacky shell around a two-year-old smartphone. It runs a Snapdragon 7 Gen 3, 12GB RAM, 512GB storage, and a larger 19.35Wh battery but slower 30W charging; iFixit and Gizmodo criticize the build as cheap-feeling and gimmicky. The device targets a specific electorate with preinstalled Truth Social, and a recent data leak exposed buyers’ names and emails. Trump Mobile claims US assembly, but components are sourced abroad, making the T1 more of a vanity project than a practical phone.

Trump T1 Phone Likely Draws from HTC U24 Pro Design

The Verge reports that Trump Mobile's upcoming T1 phone bears striking similarities to HTC's U24 Pro, including an angled frame, curved display, and similar top-edge sensors, suggesting the Trump device may be built by the same ODM rather than HTC itself. Trump has claimed 50‑MP main and selfie cameras with an ultrawide and 2x zoom, and the UI hints at those features, with a Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 suspected. HTC says it does not manufacture phones for third parties, and the exact ODM/manufacturer behind the T1 remains unconfirmed, so while the design link is strong, many specifications could differ in the final release.

HTC Sends VR Headsets to Space for Astronaut Mental Health

HTC is sending a modified version of its Vive Focus 3 VR headset to the International Space Station (ISS) to test its viability in alleviating mental stress experienced by astronauts. Partnering with XRHealth, HTC aims to address the lack of privacy, high workloads, and separation from loved ones that astronauts face in space. The modified headset uses software changes and power management adjustments to overcome spatial orientation issues, allowing the wearer to navigate menus using eye-tracking or a controller. If successful, this mission could pave the way for a more robust VR experience during longer space missions, including potential trips to Mars.

"Analysts foresee 'self-healing' displays on smartphones within five years"

Analyst firm CCS Insight predicts that smartphones with "self-healing" displays could be available on the market within the next five years. This technology would involve a nano coating on the display surface that reacts to air when scratched, filling in the imperfection. While companies have been exploring self-repairing smartphone displays for years, it has yet to be commercially successful. Additionally, CCS Insight predicts that Taiwanese tech giant HTC will exit the virtual reality industry by 2026 due to dwindling revenues and competition from Meta, Sony, and Apple. The firm also suggests that Apple may seek more control over the second-hand smartphone market to prevent it from impacting new iPhone sales.
