OK! Hold your horses and hear me out.

The instax mini Link is back for version 2.0 and it found its way to the Philippine archipelago. Now called the instax mini Link 2, the instax printer can still do whatever its predecessor can except for a variety of unique functions.

Draw in the air

There’s a new function called “instaxAIR” where users can ~literally~ draw in the air. Picture the times you hold your S-Pen when you’re drawing in the air around three years ago.

Using a dedicated app, you can apply an AR effect when taking pictures so you can add drawings or writings to the space. The device vibrates in line with its movements and plays sound with special effects that match the AR effect.

Moreover, the instax mini Link 2 lets you record the action of drawing using the instaxAIR. You can save the footage as a video, which you can easily share on social media like TikTok.

Make your moments colorful

Like its predecessor, the Link 2 still has the Match Test function, which is now enhanced with a “Go with your Instinct” mode where two people choose colors that match their mood. Their compatibility percentage and chosen colors are incorporated into their instax photo.

To add more color to your moments, Fujifilm is about to release a newly-designed instax mini film called Spray Art. The film features a vivid design with a spray-painted look. It will retail for PhP 400 in the local market starting July 28, 2022.

Price and availability

The instax mini Link 2 is available in three colorways: Soft Pink, Clay White, and Space Blue. It will retail for PhP 7,299.

Starting July 28, 2022, the instax printer will be available for purchase in authorized Fujifilm instax dealers nationwide, as well as official online flagship stores in Lazada and Shopee. Purchases will come with a free pack of instax mini glossy film (10 sheets).

Sony unveils world’s 1st Eclipsa Audio-certified mic for smartphones

Sony has unveiled the ECM-AX10 microphone, the world’s first Eclipsa Audio-certified microphone for smartphones.

Tailored for vloggers, content creators, and even smartphone filmmakers, the ECM-AX10 helps capture video sound that feels more natural, immersive, and true to the moment.

It features four built-in omnidirectional microphone capsules that can record sound from multiple directions. Sony’s spatial audio processing, meanwhile, recreates a sense of space, direction and distance. This makes videos feel more engaging for viewers.

The mic connects directly to compatible smartphones via USB-C and gives creators three easy ways to capture sound: Ambisonics recording for spatial audio production, binaural recording for an immersive headphone experience, and stereo recording for everyday videos and social content.

When used with Sony’s dedicated Spatial Audio Video Tool app, creators can shoot video, check footage, make simple edits and export content with spatial audio.

This allows users to complete the entire production workflow for spatial audio video on their smartphone.

Creators can also utilize the app for publishing in Eclipsa Audio for an immersive experience on YouTube. In addition, binaural recording can be used for 360 Reality Audio for headphone-optimized three-dimensional sound experience, even where Eclipsa Audio is not supported.

The Sony ECM-AX10 is developed with sound engineers to ensure the delivery of authentic and immersive sound.

Sony worked with Sony PCL, a Sony Group company with extensive expertise in planning and producing content and spatial experiences.

The Sony ECM-AX10 will be available in Singapore from October 2026 at selected retail shops and online stores, with suggested retail pricing at SG$ 249.

Samsung joins the clip-on earbud trend with the Galaxy Buds On

But it’s exclusive to South Korea for now.

Audio wearables have been getting makeovers as of late. Besides the traditional form factors, the segment is experimenting with bone conduction and clip-on headphones. Today, Samsung is joining that trend with the Galaxy Buds On.

Debuting in South Korea, the Galaxy Buds On is Samsung’s first-ever clip-on earbuds. You’re likely familiar with how these earbuds look like, having seen them grace the ears of many a passerby today. Instead of plugging right into your ear canals, they actually do clip onto your earlobes. Samsung’s take, however, is a little bit heftier, which the brand claims gives it a wider surface area to balance the weight for your ears.

Additionally, the new earbuds has a TwinBoost speaker system. While the system adds better bass to the earbuds, it also adds automatic voice adjustments to better attune the sound according to your environment. It also has an Audio Leakage Reduction feature, so others won’t be able to hear what you’re listening to.

The Galaxy Buds On has a charging case almost identical to the Galaxy Buds4 case. Powered by the Snapdragon S7 Gen 1 Sound Platform, the earbuds can reportedly last up to 9.5 hours on a single charge.

Right now, the wearable is exclusive to South Korea, but Samsung says that a global rollout will happen in the future. In South Korea, the Galaxy Buds On costs KRW 299,000 (or approximately US$ 220).
