If you've ever followed the gaming world, you're probably familiar with Sega. As the company behind consoles like the Sega Genesis and beloved characters like _Sonic the Hedgehog_, Sega boasts a long and largely successful history. However, one of the company's lesser-known ventures was the Sega AI computer, which launched in Japan in 1986. It featured a 16-bit NEC V20 CPU clocked at 5MHz, 128KB of RAM, and used a combination of cassettes and Sega My Cards for software storage. Recently, one of these rare units was discovered and preserved, offering us a glimpse into what might be considered the first ever "AI computer."

While the primary focus in the past few hours has been on the major changes introduced in iOS 17.4, a significant tvOS beta feature has gone unnoticed. We've just discovered that tvOS 17.4 beta 1 no longer requires SharePlay participants to pay for individual Apple Music subscriptions. Instead, as long as a paid subscriber starts the session, any smartphone user can join. The Cupertino firm first brought this feature to CarPlay with [iOS 17](https://www.xda-developers.com/ios-17-review/), but it has now made its way to the Apple TV, too.

Like many kids who grew up in developed countries, gaming was a _major part_ of my formative years. I was a teen during the peak of the Nintendo vs Sega console war, the final years of the arcade scene, the emergence and rise of Sony and Microsoft as major players, and even the first PC online gaming boom.

Mac's gaming push is going to bring casual gamers back

When the [Steam Deck](https://www.xda-developers.com/steam-deck-review/) launched in 2022, there were hardly any aftermarket M.2 2230 SSDs worth buying. They had low capacities, meager performance, and unimpressive price tags. But the Deck and all [subsequent handheld gaming PCs](https://www.xda-developers.com/best-pc-gaming-handhelds/) it has inspired are very popular, and their collective use of the 2230 form factor has naturally led to demand for better options. Sabrent was first with its [Rocket 2230](https://www.xda-developers.com/sabrent-rocket-2230-ssd-review/), and other great SSDs followed, like Western Digital's super fast [SN770M](https://www.xda-developers.com/wd-black-sn770m-ssd-review/) and Teamgroup's high-value [MP44S](https://www.xda-developers.com/teamgroup-mp44s-ssd-review/).

The [Vision Pro](https://www.xda-developers.com/apple-vision-pro-hands-on/) was first teased during WWDC23, giving us a glimpse at the spatial computer Apple is releasing next year. Naturally, people reacted to the preview differently. Some believe that this mixed-reality headset will pretty much be dead on arrival, while others think it's the future of human interaction with technology. While it's still too early to tell what Apple Vision Pro's fate will look like, I personally see this device as the next big update to the [Mac line](https://www.xda-developers.com/best-macs/) for five reasons.

Google’s [Pixel 7 Pro](https://www.xda-developers.com/tag/google-pixel-7-pro/) is widely regarded as one of the best Android cameras out there. It has a generous 50-megapixel camera sensor at the back, making it perfect for capturing anything from the night sky to the smallest bug and everything else in between. For portraits, you can shoot at any zoom level from a normal 1x zoom to 30x, but it's generally easier to shoot at around the two-times zoom mark. The Pixel 7 Pro’s rival, the [Samsung Galaxy S23](https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-galaxy-s23-ultra-review/), also has a portrait mode but strangely didn't have a 2x zoom — until now.
