The iFixit teardown of the PS5 Pro is here, and while there isnt all that much different going on from what weve seen with the PS5 and PS5 Slim in terms of repairability, Sony has made one notable change: in the Pro, its pretty easy to get to the CMOS battery. Whereas accessing this battery to replace it in the two previous PS5 models required a fair amount of work due to its placement beneath the main board, iFixit found that its right under the faceplates in the PS5 Pro and nestled behind a hatch that has just one screw. Thats a nice improvement over the other PS5s, where youve got to take apart almost the whole thing to change [the CMOS battery] out, iFixit notes. Other than that, things look pretty familiar. Thats not to say the PS5 Pro itself doesnt have excitement to offer as our reviewers found, the PS5 Pro is an absolute beast of a console when it comes to performance. Less exciting though is its $700 price tag.

Its been a few years since Apple first introduced the AirTag, and while the tracker has undoubtedly become a useful everyday tool for a lot of buyers, there have also been concerns and a class-action lawsuit over misuses of the device as reports of AirTag stalking have come to light. With all of this in mind, Apple is reportedly building some privacy improvements into its next AirTag. Namely, itll be more tamper-proof, Mark Gurman reports in this weeks Power On newsletter. The second-generation AirTag, which Gurman reports is expected to be released mid-next year, will be made so its more difficult to remove the speaker, he writes. Apple has implemented features to curb unwanted tracking, including sound alerts that will let a person know theres an unknown AirTag in their vicinity, but its still relatively easy to remove the speaker, which would make it less noticeable. On top of the privacy tweaks, the new AirTag will also bring upgrades to range and the onboard wireless chip, according to Gurman. But looks-wise, it shouldnt be much different from the AirTag were used to.

The compact security camera has color night vision capabilities thanks to its built-in LED spotlight. It supports person detection, although youll need a Blink Subscription for that. They start at $3 monthly or $30 annually for one device. (And you get a 30-day trial to see if its worth it.) The camera supports 1080p HD live view and has a wider field of view than its predecessor (143 degrees diagonally vs. 110 in the original). It also has a low-light image sensor. The Blink Mini 2 works with Alexa and supports two-way audio. The plug-in camera works indoors and out, but youll need a $10 weather-resistant power adapter to use it outside.
