9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2026-02-24 17:42:31

A few days ago, CIRP published a study showing what leads people to upgrade their iPhones and how Apple Intelligence isn’t exactly it. Now, CIRP is back with a follow-up question: What happens to those old iPhones once users finally make the leap to a new model? The used iPhone market is stronger than ever According to CIRP’s latest data, nearly half of iPhone buyers (49%) in the past year either traded in or sold their previous device. That’s a meaningful jump from 43% in 2020, and reflects h

8 Best Cheap Phones (2025), Tested and Reviewed

wired.com Julian Chokkattu 2026-02-25 03:03:00

Forget the spendy flagship smartphone. Every year, I test a dozen or more devices to find the best cheap phones that perform where it counts and aren’t annoyingly slow. Wireless carriers in the US go out of their way to make expensive smartphones seem affordable. AT&T will advertise a Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra for just $36 a month, but don't let that fool you. With over 36 monthly installments, you spend over a thousand bucks on a phone. Your pricey device may also keep you locked into the networ

Nothing’s Headphone 1 Might Be Its Riskiest Audio Product Yet

gizmodo.com James Pero 2026-02-26 12:45:51

Nothing has lots of wireless audio products at this point—trust me, I’ve covered basically all of them. First, there was the Ear 1, then the Ear 2, then the Ear Stick (RIP), then the Ear, then the Ear A, then Ear Open, and, oh my god, that’s a lot of wireless earbuds. There’s one kind of audio product that it hasn’t ever released, though, and that’s an over-ear pair of headphones. That’s all going to change very soon, according to recent leaks from Nothing_fan_blog on Instagram, which has leaked

Sony Is Practically Giving Away 4.5-Star Rated Wired On-Ear Headphones for Under $10 to Clear Out Stock

gizmodo.com Brittany Vincent 2026-02-27 22:40:47

Not every pair of headphones needs to have noise cancellation, touch controls, or a premium price tag to be worth your money. Sometimes, the best pair is the one that just gets the job done. That means they produce sound and they connect to your devices. It doesn’t have to get any more complicated than that. If you’re looking for that kind of everyday listening solution, the Sony ZX Series Wired On-Ear Headphones are worth buying, especially when you can get them at such a great price. Head to

Of course, there were great phones before then and plenty of technically superior ones after that sliver of time. However, I still think 2010-2015 represents the most exciting time to be a smartphone aficionado, and not just because of the hardware.
