What changedMeta’s Muse gadget now has a name and a clearer shape. Bloomberg reports that Muse Charm is a palm-sized device with a roughly two-inch OLED screen, front and rear cameras and 5G, with sales expected by the end of the year.
The Verge reports that Mark Zuckerberg briefly showed the device at Meta Connect. It resembles a chunky, strapless smartwatch and includes a fingerprint sensor for activating the assistant, plus microphones and what appears to be a camera.
The practical question has shifted from whether Meta wants Muse outside the phone to how much hardware people will tolerate for an assistant that can be summoned without unlocking one. A screen, cameras, microphones and mobile connectivity make this more capable than a digital trinket, but also give it a rather large privacy rucksack for such a small object.
