Your next iPhone may get a significant price increase - this analyst thinks it's inevitable

Jason Hiner/ZDNET The latest US tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump have put Apple at a bit of a crossroads. With multiple tariffs impacting countries worldwide, including a 10% charge on all imports from China, electronics makers like Apple will soon have to decide if they'll take the brunt of the damage or redirect it to end consumers by increasing the price of goods. That includes the iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and more. Also: Apple launches $599 iPhone 16e: Best features, specs, and

Nvidia’s Big Plan to Beat Back RTX 5090 Scalpers Is the Same as Everybody Else’s

The markup on Nvidia’s $2,000 GeForce RTX 5090 and $1,000 RTX 5080 GPUs has reached new heights. Cards fly off store shelves as soon as they’re posted online, and then they end up on eBay and other reselling platforms at a 50% or 150% markup. Nvidia’s new plan to help you get an FE card for the base price involves entering your name in a raffle and hoping your name gets drawn out of a hat. Nvidia’s process is very simple. As noted on its official forums Wednesday, anybody with a Nvidia account

10 Years Later, The Order: 1886 Is Still Stupid, Compelling, and Kinda Fun

Since 2006, PlayStation has prided itself on big, cinematic first-party titles that justify your console purchase, and when they hit, they hit. Over the years, several internal studios have delivered blockbuster franchises like God of War, Marvel’s Spider-Man, and The Last of Us. But spare a thought for the ones that didn’t make the cut: for whatever reason, they just didn’t resonate or hit desired benchmarks, and now remain as odd one-offs with a niche fanbase that loves it for what it was and

The Incompetence of DOGE Is a Feature, Not a Bug

Within just the last week or so, Elon Musk’s DOGE hit team of mostly young, almost exclusively male engineers and executives have done the following: Pushed a website live to track “savings” that showed no savings for several days, and made it trivially easy for random people on the internet to make changes to it.

The Odds of a City-Killing Asteroid Hitting Earth Keep Rising

An asteroid discovered late last year is continuing to stir public interest as its odds of striking planet Earth less than eight years from now continue to increase. Two weeks ago, when Ars first wrote about the asteroid, designated 2024 YR4, NASA’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies estimated a 1.9 percent chance of an impact with Earth in 2032. NASA’s most recent estimate has the likelihood of a strike increasing to 3.2 percent. Now that’s not particularly high, but it’s also not zero. Ars

Twitch caps streamers’ storage at 100 hours of highlights and uploads

Twitch on Wednesday announced it will begin limiting streamers to 100 hours of highlights and uploads, and will delete content if a channel exceeds the limit. The company said it’s introducing the change because highlights haven’t been effective in driving discovery or engagement, and because storage is costly. The storage cap goes into effect on April 19. The change applies to highlights, which are snippets edited from a channel’s past broadcasts, as well as other uploaded content. Clips and

Europe risks becoming a 'museum' if it doesn't innovate in AI and deregulate, Swedish PM warns

STOCKHOLM — Europe is at risk of becoming a "museum" if it doesn't soften strict curbs on artificial intelligence technologies and deregulate, Sweden's Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson said Thursday. "I think we really need to step up in Europe ... the American economy, Chinese economy have been growing far faster compared to the European economies over the last 20 years," the premier told attendees of the Techarena event in Stockholm. "If we don't change that, Europe will actually become some k

This company is trying to make a biodegradable alternative to spandex

“True circularity has to start with raw materials,” says Peña. “We talk about circularity across many industries, but for textiles, we must address what we’re using at the source.” Engineered from recombinant DNA, SELPs are copycat proteins inspired by silk and elastin that can be customized for qualities like tensile strength, dye affinity, and elasticity. Silk’s amino acid sequences—like glycine-alanine and glycine-serine—give fibers strength, while elastin’s molecular structure adds stretchi

I tried the new PS3 emulator on Android and it technically works, but it has a long way to go

Nick Fernandez / Android Authority The era of PS3 emulation on Android is here! To some degree, at least. Android emulation geeks are abuzz with excitement over aPS3e, the first native PS3 emulator for Android phones. Sure, most of the code appears to be cobbled together from open-source PS3 emulation projects like RPCS3, Vita3K, and Termux (probably breaking their licenses), but the fact that it’s working at all is a big step forward. The app itself has now been removed from GitHub due to th

OPPO’s Find N5 is ready to challenge your foldable expectations

TL;DR OPPO introduces the Find N5, the thinnest book-style foldable around measuring just 8.5mm thick closed. Fully expanded, the phone offers an expansive 8.12-inch internal screen, with OPPO’s least prominent crease to date. While the Find N5 is being made available internationally, those plans don’t include US sales. Foldable smartphones penetrated the mainstream years ago, but there’s still plenty of room for manufacturers to innovate. The allure of having a tablet-sized screen ready to u

The Lenovo Legion Go S (with Windows) makes so many mistakes I can’t figure out how we got here

Lenovo Legion Go S with Windows The Windows-powered Legion Go S isn't a total bust from Lenovo. The display is great, and so are the speakers. There are also some nice software features, including fully customizable buttons. However, there are so many confusing choices here that ruin the experience: the quad-core Ryzen Z2 Go chipset leaves much to be desired, the whole thing is too heavy, there's no "gotta have it" feature, and poor hardware decisions (like the tiniest trackpad on Earth) make it

Tubi Is Not the Next Netflix. It’s Something Better

Here’s a fun tidbit to toss out at your next dinner party: Tubi is home to the biggest content library of all the streamers. That’s right, the one-time underdog of streaming now claims it has more content than Netflix. Tubi has over 275,000 titles from every era and genre of film and television. At least, that's what the company says; it’s nearly impossible to verify given the library’s size.

ProtoArc XKM01 CaseUp Combo Review: A Reliable Portable Workstation

The mouse is perfectly adequate too. It's slim but provides enough palm support that my hand doesn't feel like it's cramping up. The scroll wheel and buttons are smooth and responsive. After a short time, I noticed a strange, squeaky noise coming from the left side whenever I'd click. It's not always there, but it's slightly annoying whenever it comes back. Like the keyboard, it charges via USB-C but has a slightly longer battery life of up to 200 days (standby time). The stand is super adjusta

Twitch is limiting streamers to 100 hours of highlights and uploads

Twitch is planning to cull some of the content archived by streamers to save on storage costs. On Wednesday, the streaming platform announced that it will introduce a 100-hour storage cap for highlights and uploads starting on April 19th, warning that users will have their content automatically deleted until it falls below the limit. Twitch says it’s doing this because “Highlights haven’t been very effective in driving discovery or engagement,” and it isn’t worth the cost of storing thousands o

Spore.Bio raises $23M to apply machine learning to microbiology testing

Recalls in the food and beverage industry due to contamination incidents can be catastrophic for a company. Not only do companies have to pay fines and damages, but the impacts on the brand’s reputation can be long-lasting. That’s why Spore.Bio, a Paris-based deeptech startup, is trying to reinvent microbiology testing to get ahead of the next PR crisis in the food industry. The company recently secured a $23 million Series A round, a little more than a year after it raised an €8 million pre-se
