In a world of sonic conformity, Nothing has consistently positioned itself as a purveyor of the unique, a champion of transparent technology that stands out. The Nothing Headphone (1) is the latest and perhaps most ambitious expression of this philosophy.
It enters a crowded market not by trying to out-spec everyone on paper, but by offering a holistic experience, one that marries a head-turning design with a surprisingly deep, customizable audio core. After extensive use, it’s clear these headphones are not for everyone. They are a carefully crafted tool and a fashion statement for a very specific user: the traveling professional, the style-conscious individual, and the tech nerd who appreciates when form and function dare to be different.

Having been in the tech space for over two decades, I’ve seen many waves of innovation, from the birth of smartphones to the rise of wearables. But few categories have remained as persistently fascinating as Extended Reality (XR). My own journey with XR began in 2015 with the Google Glass. I was an early adopter, and that experience even led to a party with Sergey Brin. Even then, it felt like a glimpse of the future, albeit one that had arrived a little too early. Fast-forward to 2025, and the landscape is nearly unrecognizable. At Qualcomm’s recent XR Day in India, I had the chance to speak with Deb Marich, VP, Product Marketing at Qualcomm to discuss how far the XR ecosystem has come, and where it’s heading next.

For years, the affordable projector market in India has been a bit of a wild west. You either settled for a low-cost, no-name device with clunky software and non-existent support, or you had to shell out a small fortune for a high-end model. Finding a middle ground has been a challenge. Enter Lumio, an Indian brand that made some waves with its snappy smart TVs. Now, they’re stepping into the projection game with the Lumio Arc series. The company says it looked at what frustrates users the most – laggy interfaces, the nightmare of getting Netflix to work, and poor audio – and decided it could do better. Their answer is the Lumio Arc 7, a projector that aims to be the go-to recommendation not because it’s cheap, but because it simply works. I’ve spent some time with the Arc 7, and here are my unfiltered thoughts.
