The best AR glasses are cheaper than ever during Black Friday

The Xreal One look a bit like the glasses you get from the optician after having your pupils dilated. But they’re not as bulky or heavy as a VR headset. I’ll admit it, I thought AR glasses like the Xreal One were a joke when I first heard about them. But they clicked for me as a gamer when I realized they could be plugged into a Steam Deck or an iPad to have my own huge, private display no matter where I am.

The Jeep Recon lives

It’s been over three years since we first caught glimpse of Jeep’s Wrangler-esque Recon EV, named after the automaker’s suspension-lifting package of off-roading options for its popular lineup of SUVs. Jeep originally pegged the Recon’s sales debut for 2023, but that obviously didn’t happen. And since then, there have been further delays, and even rumors that the Recon was DOA. Surprisingly, those rumors turned out to be false. The 2026 Jeep Recon is alive and well, and will go into production in early 2026, with initial launches planned for the US and Canada.

You need to listen to the searing noise pop album Forever in Your Heart

The cover goes as hard as the album does. There's something irresistible about music that sounds as if it's coming apart at the seams. The Black Dresses are masters of barely contained chaos.

The Canadian duo of Ada Rook and Devi McCallion crafts something undeniably catchy from abrasive electronics, metallic percussion,…
