Marshall is dominating the month of May with back-to-back exciting announcements. Last week, the audio brand surprised many fans by releasing the company’s first-ever soundbar, the Heston 120. Now, on Tuesday (May 27), Marshall continues its momentum with the launch of its highly anticipated medium-sized Bluetooth speaker, the Kilburn III, boasting powerful, high-quality sound.

The latest Kilburn model comes equipped with a striking 50-plus hours of portable playtime in one single charge of the battery, which is more than double that of its predecessor. The speaker also comes equipped with 360° True Stereophonic sound, thanks to a stereo arrangement with no blind spots. True to Marshall’s ethos, this speaker has been engineered to be turned up loud, without compromising sound quality. Marshall claims the result is a “harmonious blend of bass, mids and treble at any volume.”

Marshall has once again taken the classic aesthetic inspired by their amps and rock n’ roll heritage by incorporating intricate details such as tactile control knobs and a carrying strap lined with velvet that can be easily removed and reattached with guitar strap buttons. Thanks to its portable design and impressive rechargeable battery, the Kilburn III can be carried around the home without the bother of wires and power bricks. With an IP54 dust- and water-resistance rating, it can provide the perfect soundtrack both inside and out.
“Kilburn III represents a groundbreaking evolution in our product line, showcasing a completely reengineered acoustic design. We’ve enhanced its visual appeal, refined usability and extended the playtime to over 50 hours. Kilburn III is a remarkable upgrade from the highly appreciated Kilburn II,” said Hanna Wallner, Product Manager, Marshall Speakers, in a statement.
The Marshall Kilburn III releases May 27 in a black-and-brass or cream colorway on Marshall.com for $379.99. The speaker will be available to purchase through other retailers starting on June 10. Shop both colorways below.

Already considered one of the best headphones on the market, the WH-1000XM6 continues to improve from the previous WH-1000XM5 model. With each iteration, Sony manages to add new impressive features, develop better active noise-canceling technology and expand its hardware functionality of its top-notch flagship headphones.
Trending on Billboard
In terms of design, the WH-1000XM6 looks pretty similar to previous models, but Sony added many subtle tweaks and improvements to make the headphones feel even lighter and more comfortable for longer wear times. This time around, the headphones feature a wider, asymmetrical headband and a folding design, similar to older models, to make them easier to store and travel with. The WH-1000XM6 headphones use a mix of physical buttons and touch panels on the outside of each ear cup for quick and easy touch controls and switching between ANC and ambient modes a breeze.
Under the hood, the Sony flagship device continues to deliver industry-leading sound quality and noise-canceling technology. For the M6, Sony developed new drivers, which it says delivers “richer details and clearer vocals.” It also included a 360 Spatial Sound upmixing feature for stereo content to essentially turn regular content into spatial audio. To enhance the listening experience even further, Sony enlisted mastering engineers from three recording studios to help fine-tune the sound profile of the 1000XM6.
For a premium price of $450, Sony’s latest flagship headphone continues to deliver impressive industry-leading audio experience worth its high price tag. Shop the WH-1000XM6 noise-canceling headphones below and check out the brand’s latest For the Music campaign featuring Post Malone.

Meta’s most budget friendly mixed-reality headset lives up to the hype. Last month, Meta introduced the Quest 3S headset — a smaller, lighter and more affordable version of the Meta Quest 3 with a few, internal and external upgrades.

For starters, Meta Quest 3S retails for $299 — $200 cheaper than its predecessor. It’s also lighter and more comfortable than Meta Quest 3, and updated with new features such as dynamic spatial audio and increased resolution for Passthrough (which lets you mix your reality with VR).
Meta Quest 3S allows users to stream movies and more on a cinema-sized, VR screen, plus access games such as Beat Saber, Alo Moves XR, Just Dance VR, Wordle and Metro Awakenings along with streaming apps like Prime Video, Peacock, Netflix, Amazon Music, Twitch, YouTube, Xbox Cloud Gaming (available in BETA).

Meta Quest 3S 128GB — Get Batman: Arkham Shadow and a 3-Month Trial of Meta Quest+ Included — All-in-One Headset
The holidays are around the corner, and Meta’s latest VR headset is certainly giftworthy. With Meta Quest 3S users can explore Horizon Worlds’ Music Valley where music fans get a front-row seat to VR performances from Sabrina Carpenter, BLACKPINK, Doja Cat and other recording stars.
One of my main gripes with Meta Quest 3? The headset. It’s heavy and uncomfortable, but the Quest 3S offers a slight improvement on the weight issue along with other, notable upgrades such as adjustable Frensel lenses, a spacer for users who wear glasses and a rebuilt Meta Horizon OS interface with added support for social media apps such as Facebook, Instagram and YouTube.
Quest 3S is incredibly user friendly, especially if you’re already familiar with the Meta portal. Even if you’re unfamiliar, the device will walk you through steps to set things up.
The new 3S features Travel Mode, so you can use it on an airplane (Meta plans to expand it to be used on trains and other modes of travel) and hand tracking, which allows you to use your hands instead of the controllers.
The standard Quest 3S features 128GB of storage, but you can upgrade to the 256GB device for $399.99. Meta Quest 3S is available at major retailers such as Amazon, Target, Walmart, Best Buy and Meta.com.
Get a complimentary copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow and three months of Meta Quest+ with the purchase of an all-new Meta Quest 3 and Quest 3S through April 2025.

Measuring at just 5 x 5 inches, Apple’s redesigned Mac mini offers 1.8 times faster CPU performance and two times faster GPU performance than the M1 chip, 16GB of memory, 10-core CPU, 10-core GPU and connection ports on the front and back. The new Mac mini also connects to iPhone and offers mirroring abilities through macOS Sequoia.
Trending on Billboard
Apple’s first “carbon neutral Mac with an over 80 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions across its materials,” retails for $599 and will be released on Nov. 8. (Eligible teachers and students can save $100 off the new Mac mini at Apple.) Need more power? The M4 Pro ($1,399) features up to 14-core CPU and up to 20-core GPU.
Amazon

By comparison, M4 Mac mini outpaces Intel Core i7 delivering better graphics, faster gaming performance (in World of Warcraft: The War Within) and faster audio effects in Logic Pro (nearly three times as fast as Mac Mini with M1).
Compared to the M1 chip, the new Mac mini transcribes up to two times faster when using AI speech-to-text in MacWhisper. Other tasks with M4 such as spreadsheet calculations are up to 1.7 times faster in Microsoft Excel.
“The new Mac mini delivers gigantic performance in an unbelievably small design thanks to the power efficiency of Apple silicon and an innovative new thermal architecture,” said John Ternus, Apple’s senior vice president of hardware engineering. “Combined with the performance of M4 and the new M4 Pro chip, enhanced connectivity on both the front and back, and the arrival of Apple Intelligence, Mac mini is more capable and versatile than ever, and there is nothing else like it.”
The new Mac Mini is available for pre-order online at Amazon and Apple.com.
