The Project Aura glasses collaboration between Xreal and Google is now one step closer to being something you can buy. Reservations for the second Android XR device, now dubbed the Xreal Aura, are available for $99 starting today, with a full launch in the US, UK, Japan, Canada, and South Korea expected sometime this Fall.

The Xreal Aura follows Google’s first Android-powered XR device, the Samsung Galaxy XR headset, which launched at $1,799 in October 2025. We still don’t have a full price for the Aura — which Google has previously described as “a headset masquerading as glasses” — but Best Buy will be the first in-store retail partner when it does become available. Xreal also says that those who reserve within a two-week launch offer will receive $199 credit toward the launch purchase later this year, “saving you $100 on the final price.”

As part of this deposit scheme announcement, we know also know that the Xreal Aura weighs under 95 grams, and is powered by the new Snapdragon Reality Elite chip, Qualcomm’s latest XR platform. The chip, in combination with Google’s Android XR, aims to help the Aura glasses to meet demands for “better immersive experiences, higher performance, greater intelligence, and improved power optimization,” according to a statement from Qualcomm’s XR head, Ziad Asghar.

We might get some new details about the upcoming launch after Xreal showcases the Aura glasses at Augmented World Expo, which is running between June 15th and 18th in Long Beach, California.

Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale — a thousand times more than a billion — is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.

The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years — to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting in the Paleolithic era, around the time that Neanderthals went extinct.

How about distance? Let’s say you earn $1 million dollars for every meter you walk. If you started at Times Square in NYC, you could make $1 billion by just walking down the street to The Museum of Modern Art. But to reach a trillion dollars, you would have to walk 621 miles, which is about 23 consecutive marathons. According to Google Maps, that’s the equivalent of walking from Times Square to Dayton, Ohio, and it would take around nine and a half days to do so.

You could also visualize by weight, as a US dollar bill weighs exactly one gram — a consistency that’s designed to make it easier to count stacks of money. A million $1 bills would therefore weigh a metric ton (2,204 pounds), which is roughly equivalent to a small hatchback car. A trillion $1 bills would weigh the same as 5,000 of the biggest blue whales the world has ever seen (they can reach 200 metric tons) piled on top of each other.

The Wall Street Journal has a cool visualization if you want to see how this looks in pennies. A million pennies stacked would reach about a mile high, or almost four Empire State Buildings. But a stack of 1 trillion pennies would reach the Moon and back — twice.

You get the idea. And that vast sum of money could do many, many things. A trillion dollars is more than enough to solve world hunger by 2030, according to the United Nations, which estimates it would take $93 billion per year. That leaves Musk with $628 billion — enough to also fund the $600 billion that OpenAI is expected to spend on compute by 2030, and he’d still have enough change to be richer than 99.9999 percent of the global population. 

If we split $1 trillion across the entire 349 million US population, then every person would get $2,865. Or, if you theoretically had the liquidity to put $1 trillion into a bank account with a standard 4 percent interest rate, you would earn roughly $110 million every day — almost enough to launch two Falcon 9 rockets.

Just remember: The next time someone tells you to count your pennies, Elon Musk wouldn’t be able to do so in a lifetime, even if he recruited his small army of offspring to help.

AT&T has introduced a new “Unlimited Day Pass” cellular data offer for iPad users who need brief connectivity instead of signing up for a long-term plan. The day pass is available for $3 in the US starting today, providing 24 hours of unlimited data, with no contracts, subscriptions, or credit checks required.

This offer is available to anyone, including non-AT&T customers, with the 24-hour data activation beginning shortly after purchase. The first day pass is free as part of an introductory deal. There are no caps on speed or data mentioned in AT&T’s announcement, but the company says it may “temporarily slow data speeds if the network is busy.” 

The day passes are designed to help users quickly get online when local Wi-Fi isn’t available and to provide on-the-go connectivity when traveling or working remotely. Eligible iPads must have eSIM capabilities. A full list of supported models can be found below, with more information available on AT&T’s website.

“Our goal with any product is to make it simple for people to connect wherever they are, across the devices they use most,” AT&T consumer product head Josh Goodell said in the announcement. “There is no long-term commitment — just the connectivity you need, when and where you need it.”

While the day passes are only currently available for iPads, AT&T says it will also support other 5G-enabled devices “in the near future,” including Android tablets, smartwatches, laptops, and drones. The company is also planning to launch multiday options, “such as weekend and week-long passes.”
