AirPods Pro 3 have a special new ability from an upcoming Apple product

9to5mac.com Michael Burkhardt 2025-10-01 18:47:54

Earlier this week, Apple introduced a new version of its most popular wireless earbuds: AirPods Pro 3. While you’ve likely heard of its headlining features like the heart rate monitor and 2x the noise cancellation, there’s another interesting feature beneath the surface. With AirPods Pro 2, Apple introduced a long-requested feature: the ability to track the case location on Find My. Prior to these AirPods, if your AirPods weren’t in the case – you couldn’t find them. Now, you can, thanks to App

Presence in VR should show tiny people, not user avatars (2022)

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-28 05:49:25

Since picking up a virtual reality headset a couple weeks ago, I’ve been asking myself: how should the future operating system for apps work? Like: how do you write docs? How do you collaborate on a deck? How do you launch your messaging app? Games are easy because they get to be weird. But for apps you need standard behaviours. So I’m trying to think through this from first principles and see what comes to mind… ALSO keep in mind that I have become obsessed with the overview mode in Walkabou

PSA: You’ll need a new charger to take advantage of iPhone 17 Pro’s fast charging

9to5mac.com Michael Burkhardt 2025-10-01 14:20:17

With the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max, Apple announced that they’ll be capable of charging even faster than previous iPhone models: up to 50% in just 20 minutes. While that is true, it’s thanks to a brand new USB-PD specification, which isn’t widely available on the market yet. In short, you’ll need to buy Apple’s new 40W Dynamic Power Adapter if you want to charge your iPhone 17 Pro or iPhone 17 Pro Max as quickly as possible, at least for now.

Here’s a fantastic MacBook Air deal you should consider if you’re eyeing an upgrade

With every new Apple product launch, deals slowly crop up over time – and the MacBook lineup is no exception. The best deals tend to come after a model is no longer the latest and greatest, and there’s currently an unbeatable M3 MacBook Air deal that’s hard to pass up on, and once it sells out, there likely won’t be any more to go around.

California's age verification bill for app stores and operating systems takes another step forward

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-01 19:43:39

A California bill that would require operating system and app store providers to verify users' ages before they can download apps has cleared the Assembly 58-0, and will now move on to Gov. Gavin Newsom, Politico reports. The Digital Age Assurance Act (AB 1043), introduced by Assemblymember Buffy Wicks, does not require photo identification for verification, but puts the onus on the platforms to provide tools for parents to indicate the user's age during a device's setup, and use this informatio

iPhone Air vs. Samsung S25 Edge: I compared both ultra-thin phones to decide a winner

Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. The market of ultra-thin and lightweight phones is officially at its tipping point, as Apple threw its hat into the ring this week with the new iPhone Air. The newest and arguably most innovative iPhone features the company's slimmest design yet, measuring at around 5.6mm thick. How did the folks at Cupertino achieve such a record? By opting for a smaller battery, fewer cameras, and some design elements that disrupt the norm, especially by
