You can now generate AI videos right in Premiere Pro

 

Adobe is going full steam ahead with its generative-AI video tools

 

Adobe’s Firefly web app can now generate videos from image and text prompts, and even extend existing clips, with the new feature now rolling out to Premiere Pro subscribers, Digital Trends reported.

The video generation feature appears in a number of new tools for Premiere Pro and the Firefly web app. Premiere Pro’s Generative Extend, for example, can add up to two seconds of AI-generated footage to the beginning of a clip or at the end, and also make mid-shot adjustments to the camera position, tracking, and even the shot subjects themselves.

The Firefly web app gets two new AI tools: Text-to-Video and Image-to-Video are available in a limited public beta, and you can apply to join the waitlist ...

TORRAS Ostand Spin iPhone 16 case hands-on: Looking at an elegant case design

 

Your new iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, or iPhone 16 Pro features an exquisite design. It’s a shame to cover that up with something bulky for the sake of improving durability. The TORRAS iPhone 16 series cases are designed with that same mindset, evoking true elegance and bravado. Starting with the curved back and rounded corners, they recreate the sleek aesthetic of Apple’s design. Not only that, they have an anti-slip texture that’s skin-friendly and allows for a more secure grip, so you’re less likely to drop your phone ...

New photos show Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 6 'Special Edition'

 

Many are expecting the foldable to be revealed before the end of this year, though it may be exclusive to parts of Asia

 

Leaked images apparently showing a special edition of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 have just surfaced.

Shared by Android Headlines after being posted by known leaker Evan Blass, the images appear to confirm some key design elements and also hint at potential color options.

One image shows a prominent rear camera bump housing three lenses. While this confirms a triple-camera setup, it seems that a periscope telephoto lens won't be included in the new handset. A second image focuses on the phone's right edge, revealing a power button alongside the volume rocker that likely doubles as a fingerprint sensor. The frame appears to be flat, which could offer a more comfortable grip and improved durability ...

Bowers & Wilkins Pi8 In-Ear True Wireless Earbuds review: what we’ve been waiting for

 

With these buds, Bowers & Wilkins continues its legacy for creating exceptional audio experiences

 

Digital Trends has gone hands-on with Bowers & Wilkins’ new Pi8 earbuds. The detailed review is mostly positive, lauding the buds for their “exceptional” sound quality, comfortable fit, decent touch controls, and Bluetooth multipoint technology.

But you only get 6.5 hours of listening time (with ANC) on a single charge, while the wireless charging case can fully recharge the earbuds slightly more than twice, providing a total of 20 hours of playtime. Another point of concern is the hefty $399 price tag, though the reviewer notes that the buds’ abundance of high-quality features “make them a compelling choice for those who love music."

Meta Quest 3S review: the perfect introduction to VR gaming

 

The Quest 3S is Meta’s recently announced budget VR headset with mixed reality and AI

 

In its in-depth review of Meta’s new Quest 3S headset, Digital Trends gave the device a near-perfect 4.5/5 rating, describing it as “the VR headset most people should buy.”

Costing a reasonable $299 and offering a slew of exciting features, the review suggests the Quest 3S could put VR technology on the path toward better products and wider adoption.

Notably, all of the games and apps that run on the more expensive Quest 3 also work on the Quest 3S, including mixed-reality experiences, AI assistance, and hand tracking, while offering the same level of performance, too ...
