Apple fans are right: The iPhone Air really is better than the Galaxy S25 Edge

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-29 20:00:26

Ryan Haines / Android Authority Somehow, I’ve become the resident thin phone guy at Android Authority. I’m not sure how I’ve done it, given my just-okay review of the Galaxy S25 Edge and my repeated concerns about how thin phones will all have the same problems, but here we are. And, as the thin phone guy, I now have the iPhone Air in my pocket. Only, I’m not really keeping it in my pocket — it’s spending most of its time in my hand. Unlike the Galaxy S25 Edge, which feels slim just to prove a

Two affordable iPhone 17 Pro accessories worth trying

9to5mac.com Zac Hall 2025-10-01 10:24:56

While my preferred way to use an iPhone is with no case or screen protector, I’m actually enjoying both on iPhone 17 Pro and can recommend them. They’re inexpensive enough to try without committing for a year or more. Five years ago, Apple introduced Ceramic Shield glass to the iPhone screen. It touted four times better drop performance with the promise of fewer shattered iPhone screens. I haven’t shattered an iPhone screen yet, but I consistently pick up two or three deep scratches after a ye

Apple Watch Series 3 lineup and iPhone 11 Pro Max join Apple’s vintage products list

They grow up so fast. Apple has added the iPhone 11 Pro Max and every model of the Apple Watch Series 3 to its vintage product list. Here’s what that means. 11 products added to Apple’s vintage list You probably know the drill: Five years after Apple stops selling a product, it may classify it as vintage, which in practice doesn’t change much, since the company will still offer hardware service and parts. But five years after that, the product may be labeled obsolete, which effectively ends a

iPhone 17 vs. iPhone 16: Which One Should You Buy?

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-10-01 18:13:19

Now that Apple's iPhone 17 has arrived, you may be wondering whether to buy the newest device or get last year's iPhone 16, which now costs $100 less. To help with that decision, here's a breakdown of how the two phones compare. The iPhone 17 starts at $829 (or $799 if you activate with a carrier), the same as the iPhone 16 when it came out -- with the key difference being that the iPhone 17 starts with a higher 256GB storage option, as opposed to 128GB on the iPhone 16. The iPhone 16 is now a

I traveled with the Sony XM6 headphones for a week - and can't go back

Jada Jones/ZDNET ZDNET's key takeaways The Sony WH-1000XM6 headphones offer even better sound and ANC performance. They have the best travel case for headphones in 2025. I love the more comfortable, snug fit of Sony's new flagship headphones. The Sony WH-1000XM5 were great but lacked a few features that I consider essential for travel. That's why I chose the Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones as my go-to travel headphones, for their comfortable fit and foldable design. But three years after
