Apple's iOS 26 release date is coming up: Check to see if your iPhone is compatible for the update

We're only a few days away Apple's iPhone 17 event, which the company has dubbed "awe dropping" and scheduled for Tuesday, September 9. If all goes as expected, we should get to download iOS 26 and iPad 26 about a week later. Coming with those OS updates are substantial updates to your iPhone and iPad's operating systems. You may have already heard about "Liquid Glass," which (intentional or not) is sort of like Apple's take on the old Windows Vista design language. That's the most notable chan

Type checking is a symptom, not a solution

What if the programming industry’s decades-long obsession with type checking is solving the wrong problem entirely? What if our increasingly sophisticated type systems—from Haskell’s category theory to Rust’s borrow checker—are elaborate workarounds for fundamental architectural mistakes we’ve been making since the beginning? The software industry has convinced itself that type checking is not just useful, but essential. We’ve built entire programming languages around the premise that catching

September's Fall Equinox Is Coming: What to Know and What It Looks Like

Labor Day has come and gone, and school is back in session. Though the leaves have yet to start turning, fall is making its way here. The official arrival of the season is the autumnal equinox, which occurs in the Northern Hemisphere in September. After a hot summer, the fall equinox marks a welcome shift in the seasons for many folks. But what exactly is an equinox? It's all about Earth and its relationship with the sun.

This Pricey Thermostat Has Nearly Paid for Itself by Saving Me Money, and It's on Sale Right Now

CNET's key takeaways $240 Automated Eco Modes make energy saving easy, even if you don't have time to plan out your schedule. Local utility rebates may also help make the thermostat more affordable. When friends walk past my Nest Learning Thermostat Gen 4 for the first time, they often stop and stare.

Dreame’s New Stair-Climbing and Arm-Equipped Robot Vacuums Take Aim at Eufy and Roborock

Stairs are one of the last big challenges to be overcome by robot vacuums. Cleaning performance is getting better with each new model, for both vacuuming and mopping, and robots are better able to navigate spaces and obstacles. But until now, none have been able to climb stairs. That’s set to change with Eufy’s Marswalkers and Dreame’s new Cyber X concept, which our sister site PCMag was able to see in action at IFA, the tech show in Berlin. “Eufy’s version resembles a space rover, while the Dr

We Use Our Smartphones Like Laptops, So Why Do We Need Both? Here's What CNET's Survey Says

It's not uncommon to have a smartphone, a laptop and a tablet. I use all three, sometimes for many of the same tasks, like text messages, streaming and social media. The same is true for a lot of people. CNET's recent survey examines how most US adults use laptops, tablets and smartphones. Laptops are commonly used for work and educational tasks like creating and viewing documents (52%), streaming (35%) and creative work (33%). Besides texting, calls and social media, we use our smartphones fo

SwitchBot's New AI Art Frame Lets You Give Prompts to Generate Art in Seconds

SwitchBot arrived at IFA (Innovation for All) 2025 with a lot to show off, including fluffy home Kata robots and the Acemate Tennis Robot, complete with training programs. But what really caught my smart home eyes was an application of generative AI I've never seen before. SwitchBot introduced an AI Art Frame, and it represents a completely new future for at-home wall art. The AI Art Frame's concept and design are easy to grasp and made me wonder why the idea wasn't already more widespread. It

Warner Bros. sues Midjourney to stop AI knockoffs of Batman, Scooby-Doo

Warner Bros. hit Midjourney with a lawsuit Thursday, crafting a complaint that strives to shoot down defenses that the AI company has already raised in a similar lawsuit filed by Disney and Universal Studios earlier this year. The big film studios have alleged that Midjourney profits off image generation models trained to produce outputs of popular characters. For Disney and Universal, intellectual property rights to pop icons like Darth Vader and the Simpsons were allegedly infringed. And now,

September is usually iPhone season, and Apple appears poised to unveil its newest smartphones with its latest showcase, which is set for next week. The fall event has been dubbed "Awe dropping," so we're hoping for some surprising announcements that'll merit the tagline. The whole thing begins on September 9 at 1PM ET/10AM PT.

iOS 26: Everything you need to know about the iPhone update ahead of the Apple event next week

Get ready: The Apple iPhone 17 event is on Tuesday, September 9, which is less than a week away. (Here's how you can watch the iPhone 17 launch on YouTube.)

This AI Box Lets You Search Your Security Camera Footage Using a Text Prompt

SwitchBot had a few AI-powered devices on display at IFA 2025; not just a furry little robot pet (I picked it up and it’s not cuddly). They included an E Ink AI art display, which generates AI art on demand, an AI tennis robot that you can “play” matches against, and a couple of robot vacuums. We’ll get to all of that, but the main thing that caught my eye was the SwitchBot AI Hub. It’s not that the others aren’t interesting—of course they are—it’s that I love good, easy automation. The promise

Forget Open Earbuds, It’s All About Open Headphones Now

I’m a big fan of open audio, but not everyone loves the earbud form factor. Despite how comfortable some of the entrants in the open-ear audio space may be—Bose’s Ultra Open Earbuds and Nothing’s Ear Open are particularly comfy—sometimes you just want a pair of more traditional over-ear headphones, whether for ergonomics or more stability on your head. The problem is, if you want to combine the two (headphones and open-ear audio, that is), you’re not exactly flush with options. JLab, however, pl

The Horror Hit ‘Weapons’ Is Coming Home Sooner Than You Think

Whatever you do, don’t invite the creepy witch into your home. That is, of course, unless it’s on your TV and you’re sitting on the couch.

The unique, sprawling horror film is coming to digital on September 9, followed by a physical release on October 14. Written and directed by Zach Cregger, Weapons is the story of a town shattered by a horrific event. One evening, an ent

NASA’s acting chief “angry” about talk that China will beat US back to the Moon

NASA's interim administrator, Sean Duffy, said Thursday he has heard the recent talk about how some people are starting to believe that China will land humans on the Moon before NASA can return there with the Artemis Program. "We had testimony that said NASA will not beat China to the Moon," Duffy remarked during an all-hands meeting with NASA employees. "That was shade thrown on all of NASA. I heard it, and I gotta tell you what, maybe I am competitive, I was angry about it. I can tell you wha

Tech CEOs Praise Donald Trump at White House Dinner

The scene opens confusingly. The camera zooms too close to the president’s face; the table at which the tech executives are seated seems far too long. Mark Zuckerberg is there, and Bill Gates and Tim Cook and Satya Nadella and Sam Altman and on and on, a baker’s dozen or so of Silicon Valley’s most powerful people—cutthroat competitors all—united here to pledge allegiance to Donald Trump. The introduction from Trump is characteristically both overgilded and confusing: “It's an honor to be here

Google fined €2.95bn by EU for abusing advertising dominance

Google fined €2.95bn by EU for abusing advertising dominance 6 minutes ago Share Save Liv McMahon Technology reporter Share Save Reuters Google has been fined €2.95bn (£2.5bn) by the EU for allegedly abusing its power in the ad tech sector - the technology which determines which adverts should be placed online and where.
