Williams previously led Apple’s health initiatives and passed the role of COO to Sabih Khan, the iPhonemaker’s former vice president of operations, in July. The company is splitting up Williams’ other responsibilities before his departure at the end of this year, with Apple software head Craig Federighi taking over watchOS, and hardware leader John Ternus overseeing Apple Watch hardware engineering, according to Bloomberg.
Apple is shuffling other positions as well. Bloomberg reports that Apple fitness chief Jay Blahnik will report to health VP Sumbul Desai amid an internal investigation into conduct. Both Blahnik and Desai previously reported to Williams. In August, TheNew York Times reported that a former employee sued Blahnik, accusing him of creating a toxic work environment.
Asus says the XG129C covers 125 percent of the sRGB color gamut and 90 percent of the DCI-P3 color gamut. It also comes with a one-year subscription for the hardware monitoring tool AIDA64 Extreme, which would usually cost $65. Besides acting as a performance monitor for your PC, sidekick displays like this can also be handy as an extension for streaming or editing setups, much like Elgato’s Stream Deck.
Along with the little XG129C, Asus also announced the ROG Strix OLED XG34WCDMS, a 34-inch RGB Tandem QD-OLED gaming monitor. It features a 280Hz refresh rate and a 3440 x 1440p resolution, and, according to Asus, covers 99 percent of the DCI-P3 color gamut. Asus has not yet officially announced pricing for either display.

Asus’s latest gaming monitor is a little smaller than usual. The ROG Strix XG129C, announced on Friday, is a 12.3-inch touchscreen IPS display that’s intended to be a sidekick for a larger main monitor, similar to the 14.1-inch secondary display in the 2020 Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo 15. It’s a slightly smaller competitor to Corsair’s Xeneon Edge, which has a 14.5-inch display, but the same 720p resolution.

Rolling out first in the U.S., Clips will include…well, clips of shows on Prime Video that are designed to hook a viewer and get them to give the full show a try. From that clip, users can add a title to their watchlist, share it with a friend, or navigate to rent, buy, or access the title through their subscription.
“Clips gives customers a whole new way to browse with short, personalized snippets tailored to their interests,” said Prime Video’s director of global application experiences, Brian Griffin, in a press release. “Whether they have a few minutes to scroll or are looking for something to watch when they have more time, entertainment is just a tap away.”
Amazon first tested this short-form feed during the NBA season, showing highlights that users can scroll through as though they’re watching TikToks.
It’s not a surprise to see Prime Video make this change — Netflix, Peacock, Tubi, Disney, and others have recently rolled out similar experiences, which are designed to promote discovery. Netflix’s short-form feed even shares the Clips name.
Clips is first rolling out to select U.S. customers on iOS, Android, and Fire tablets, but it will be available more broadly this summer. Users can navigate to Clips by scrolling down on the Clips carousel on the Prime Video mobile home page, which will surface a full-screen vertical feed.

announced a major upgrade to its fitness and wellness platform by introducing Fitbit Air and the new Google Health app. With personalized workout suggestions, sleep insights, and nutrition guidance, Google is making its health platform more interactive. The AI coaching features will be available on a paid plan starting at Rs 99 per month.
The new “Today” tab works more like an interactive health feed. It highlights sleep summaries, weekly cardio scores, readiness levels, and daily activity updates in a more visual and contextual format. The app can also provide recovery recommendations and suggest workouts or lighter activities based on recent health patterns.
Google Health Coach Powered by Gemini
This tool serves as an artificial wellness assistant that analyzes user data and provides personalized advice and information. The AI trainer can advise on exercises, give sleep tips, monitor recovery, and provide nutrition advice as well. As noted by Google, this tool should be more interactive and flexible than conventional fitness applications. It can also modify its recommendations depending on specific circumstances, such as low energy, injuries, and routine changes.
Google Health Subscription Pricing in India
Google plans to continue providing all basic health and fitness tracking features for free via the Google Health application. This includes all standard features, such as recording steps taken, measuring heart rate, and recording sleep information, that users will have access to for free.
However, the company has placed its advanced AI-powered features under a premium plan. The Google Health subscription is priced at Rs 99 per month or Rs 999 per year in India. Premium users get access to advanced coaching tools, deeper sleep analysis, personalized workout plans, and proactive health recommendations powered by Gemini AI.
Fitbit Air Launches as a Screenless Fitness Tracker
Unlike other fitness trackers, the wearable device focuses solely on monitoring the user’s health stats in the background. Google designed the Fitbit Air with a lightweight pebble-like shape that feels slimmer than the Fitbit Luxe and Inspire 3 series. The company created its sleek body to provide users with better comfort during all-day wear.
Another important aspect that distinguishes Fitbit Air from other products is its ability to operate continuously for several days, thanks to advanced battery technology. At the same time, Google is aiming to provide fast recharging by implementing it in the wearable as well. Indeed, according to some sources, charging for 5 minutes will provide enough battery for a whole day.
Fitbit Air Price and Availability
Google has officially launched the Fitbit Air at $99.99, roughly equivalent to ₹9,400 in India. The wearable is currently available for global pre-orders, while full sales are expected to start later this month, on May 26.
As part of the launch offer, customers purchasing the device will get a three-month Google Health Premium trial. The subscription unlocks AI-based wellness coaching, personalized workout plans, and advanced health insights.
