The group compares weight, comfort, thermal balance, strap systems, and software ecosystems. Marty shares his early hands-on impressions with the Galaxy XR—including its lighter design but occasional light leakage—while Ben and Jill discuss how purpose may determine market success: Vision Pro for spatial productivity, Galaxy XR for approachable consumer entry.  The discussion moves to VisionOS Beta 4, where developer-focused updates aim to improve stability and groundwork for more immersive experiences. The consensus: incremental but necessary.   Then comes one of the show's most passionate sections: Apple's decision not to allow trade-ins of the first-generation Vision Pro. The panel debates how this affects:     •    customer loyalty     •    early-adopter trust     •    whether the Vision Pro is being treated like a dev kit vs. consumer product. Reactions range from “understandable” to “rough look for a $3,500 device.”  From there, the conversation shifts to the GM / CarPlay breakup, which inspires instant groans. Everyone shares personal and community stories confirming that CarPlay is no longer a luxury—it's baseline expectation. One panelist notes even non-tech friends refuse to buy a car without CarPlay, which says more than any product review ever could.   iPhone Air production and strategy concerns, tied to mid-tier pricing pressure  YouTube's new AI deepfake likeness detection, and what it means for creators and security Topics and Links In Touch With Vision Pro this week.  visionOS 26.1 Beta 3 Release Notes | Apple Developer Documentation  New Samsung Vision Pro Killer?

After nearly a decade of wearing an Apple Watch, I finally ditched it. Not because I stopped caring about health data, but because I realized the device was working against the simplicity and freedom I value.  Plus, no matter how many times I toggled it into airplane mode, the Bluetooth stayed on — meaning constant EMF exposure right over a major artery.  Add to that the Apple Watch's short battery life and the never-ending need to recharge it, and it started to feel like a net negative in my life.  And at the end of the day, I decided I just didn't want another tether disguised as technology. For a few months, I went back to a simple analog watch — quiet, timeless, and disconnected. But I soon came to miss a few basic tools that actually make life easier, like a reliable timer, a stopwatch, and subtle notifications when my phone's on silent. So I began searching for an Apple Watch replacement with just the right (limited) set of features. And the device I settled on is the Amazfit Balance 2, which runs nearly two weeks on a single charge, has a clean AMOLED display, and lets me turn Bluetooth and Wi-Fi completely off when I want to disconnect. After using it for a few months, I've come to see it as striking a perfect balance between tech and minimalism. I still get my sunrise and sunset times, my recovery data, and a timer when I need one — but without the invisible leash.  If you've struggled with finding that same balance between health tracking and digital overload, this episode might help you rethink what you wear on your wrist.

Kel’s back from Italy, jet lagged and pasta-happy, and we get into the real guts of confidence. We talk travel as a reset, ditching the Apple Watch, eating the damn spaghetti, and remembering how good life feels when you stop performing and just live it. Kel shares how she went from second-guessing herself to using her voice at work, online, and in life. We get honest about external validation, doing it scared, and why the action often has to arrive before the feeling. It’s warm, human, a bit cheeky, and a solid reminder that confidence is less sparkle, more reps.

Funnels are linear. Growth loops are exponential. You need funnels to grow, but the power of growth loops is what will make your app engagement, give you high retention, and maybe even give you viral growth.In this episode of Growth Masterminds, host John Koetsier sits down with Hannah Parvaz, CEO of Aperture, to break down growth loops, the systems that power predictable, scalable, compounding growth.We cover referral loops, content loops, habit loops, community loops, incentive loops, and more. Plus: how to kickstart loops, what to do about the cold start problem, and whether you should design around a loop or let your product's natural usage define it.Hannah shares stories from building viral referral systems (yes, free drinks were involved), explains how apps like Strava and Snapchat keep you hooked, and dives into why loops can be more powerful than funnels.Like, subscribe, and share!

In this user's guide to sleep trackers, learn the science behind how they work using motion and optical sensors as Matt explains the key metrics of Sensitivity, Specificity, and Accuracy. Revealing why most trackers overestimate sleep by failing to detect wakefulness, he reveals the crucial difference between a device's flawed "absolute accuracy" and its more valuable "relative accuracy," which highlights the importance of tracking long-term trends over single-night scores.Matt goes on to examine peer-reviewed data on the Oura Ring, Apple Watch, and Whoop, and introduces the highly accurate, FDA-cleared Happy Ring with its personalized algorithm. Beyond the specs, learn why consistency and form factor are more important than chasing perfect accuracy. The episode also covers the pitfalls of tracking, from the anxiety of "Orthosomnia" to demographic biases in sensor tech, providing a complete guide to choosing and using your device effectively.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.Podcast partner, AG1, is one that Matt relies upon for his foundational nutrition.
