On Wednesday, ExoLens, which partners with Zeiss on phone accessory lenses, announced two new lines for the iPhone 7, which it hopes to bring its high-quality system to users ranging from professional to consumer.

Pro and Prime, which ExoLens is calling the two distinct lens accessory lines, will be aimed at different markets, with — you guessed it — the Pro line geared toward more professional users and the prime line aimed at more average phone users. “We are very excited to launch the high-performance ranges of Pro and Prime iPhone lenses,” said John Fellowes, Chief Executive Officer of Fellowes Brands, which acquired ExoLens in 2014. “The new product lines signify an expanded brand strategy for ExoLens, which will now reach mobile photographers of all levels.”

ExoLens said the first of its lenses to hit the market will be the Pro Wide-Angle and Telephoto kits for iPhone 7, both of which feature aspherical lens technology that you normally only see used in lenses developed for use on DSLR cameras. The Pro kits will also come with the ExoLens Edge Mount, made out of machined aluminum, for mounting the lenses to your iPhone 7.

The wide-angle Pro kit will be the first to market and will retail for around $199, followed by the Telephoto kit which will retail for around $249. For now, ExoLens has not said what the Prime lens line will look like, but the company is slated for a first-quarter 2017 launch.

Can a $500 Pixel phone beat a $1,000 iPhone in a camera test? I found out
iPhone 15 Pro (left) and Google Pixel 8a camera modules.

Right before Google I/O 2024, Google showed off the latest Pixel device, the Google Pixel 8a. This is the latest offering from the Pixel A-series, which is a more budget-friendly Pixel for those who don’t need all the bells and whistles of the flagship Pixel 8 or 8 Pro.

The Pixel 8a features a new design with more rounded corners and a matte-finish back. It packs Google’s latest silicon, the Tensor G3, but the camera hardware remains unchanged from its predecessor, the Pixel 7a.

Arc Search, one of the best iPhone apps right now, just got even better
Arc Search's Call Arc feature.

One of our favorite iPhone browser apps has just introduced an interesting new feature. Arc Search’s new "Call Arc" tool functions similarly to making a phone call on your iPhone 15 Pro or other iPhone. Instead of speaking to someone on the other end of the line, though, you ask Arc to answer your queries. The outcome is fresh and unique, and it actually works really well.

Before its latest software update, Arc Search already offered a voice search feature. The AI-powered Call Arc is different and designed for people on the go who are looking for quick answers to short questions.
