1. New Logitech Accessories Aim to Improve Your WFH Lifestyle

Logitech has unveiled the Brio 500 webcams and Zone Vibe headphones, designed for remote workers who are still using laptop cameras and speakers.

GoPro claims its new cameras—the Hero11 Black, Hero11 Black Creator Edition, and Hero11 Black Mini—have the highest resolution of the Hero lineup so far.

Maybe the new Hero11 cameras will make that happen.
