Skipping F1 movie in theaters? Why you shouldn’t wait for Apple TV+ release

F1 The Movie is turning out to be the hit Apple was hoping for. Early box office results show it’s the company’s biggest theatrical success by far. But while plenty of people might be waiting for it to hit Apple TV+, here’s why F1 The Movie is uniquely worth seeing in theaters. F1 offers unique theatrical experience that Apple TV+ can’t match Apple is the iPhone company, a device that—for better or worse—movies and TV shows are commonly viewed on today. But out of all the movies you might wat

Apple confirms iOS 26 in the EU will be missing some features

Earlier this month Apple unveiled iOS 26 and the host of changes it introduces. But now the company has confirmed that, due to regulatory concerns, iOS 26 will ship without certain features enabled for EU users. EU will see delayed release of iOS 26 features due to DMA concerns Apple’s ongoing efforts to comply with the EU’s DMA will mean EU users will be missing out on certain iOS 26 features…at least for now. Edith Hancock writes at The Wall Street Journal: Apple said it will delay offerin

First reference to MacBook with A18 Pro discovered in Apple code

Earlier today, Ming-Chi Kuo reported that a new, cheaper MacBook would include the iPhone’s A18 Pro chip. Now, the first reference to the device has been discovered in Apple code. Mac with iPhone chip seemingly confirmed by Apple code Last summer, Apple inadvertently leaked future product listings in code related to Apple Intelligence. As shared by Aaron Perris at the time, the code leaked several iPhone 16 and 17 models, plus referenced a variety of Mac and iPad models. Nearly a year later,

How to easily add and configure multitouch gestures on Linux

Jack Wallen/ZDNET Years ago, I attempted to configure multitouch gestures for Linux and found it next to impossible. Back then, it was all about configuring with a text file, and the options were cumbersome and confusing. Even with one of the first GUI apps that came along, the results were never promising. Fast-forward to now, and there's a simple-to-use app that makes adding and configuring multi-touch gestures a breeze. That app is called Touché, and it makes customizing touchpad gestures

Snap & Grab Is an '80s Glam Heist Game Where Hitman Meets Pokemon Snap

At Summer Game Fest, I tried out one of the more stylish, relaxing games that made me wish I had pals on the couch to play with. But instead of a co-op adventure, Snap & Grab, as it's called, is a heist title where players take on the role of a fashionista photojournalist who steals gaudy treasures from rich doofuses to fill her penthouse. Snap & Grab is the debut title for studio No Goblin, which held its demo in publisher Annapurna Interactive's closed-door area at the annual gaming festival.

The Project Hail Mary trailer looks like The Martian all over again (in a great way)

Andy Weir's sci-fi books are practically built to be turned into movies, especially in the hands of great writers and directors. That's what happened with The Martian, which was a delightfully nerdy self-published novel that was transformed into a thrilling film adaptation — thanks to Drew Goddard's script and Ridley Scott's bold direction. And I have a feeling the same will be true for the latest Weir adaptation, Project Hail Mary, judging from the first trailer released today. It's got everyt

Lenovo 14-Inch IdeaPad Slim 3 Touch Screen Laptop Is Almost 60% Off, Making It Cheaper Than AirPods Pro

Touchscreens have been available on laptop computers since 1983, believe it or not. But it took decades for them to become widely available and, more importantly, affordable. Now we appear to have moved from “affordable” to “absolutely dirt cheap,” if Best Buy’s $169 sale (58% off) on the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook is any indication.

Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14 Review: A Game-Changer

Amazingly, the base configuration has 12 GB of RAM. That’s not quite as much as the 16 GB you get in some Snapdragon X-powered Windows laptops like the forthcoming HP Omnibook 5 16—but for ChromeOS, it’s more than enough. Meanwhile, the base configuration comes with 128 GB of storage, and the upgraded model has a 256-GB solid state drive. Performance is solid. Speedometer is a benchmark that tests performance in the browser, which is important for ChromeOS since it's all built around the Chrome

Apple is reportedly working on a bunch of new XR devices

Apple seems to have big plans to expand its lineup of extended-reality (XR) devices by launching new Vision series headsets and smart glasses, according to a report from supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. In his report, Kuo shares Apple’s potential roadmap for seven new head-mounted wearables, which could include the release of Meta Ray-Ban-like sma

Nothing fans are mixed on the Phone 3’s leaked design, but what do you think?

Nothing is expected to launch the Nothing Phone 3 tomorrow (July 1), and we already know that the phone will have a Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset and a 50MP periscope camera. However, Android Headlines posted apparent Nothing Phone 3 renders last week (seen above), and it certainly seems to have drawn a polarizing response online. In fact, I’d go so far as to say that the sentiment has been overwhelmingly negative, with people calling it “ugly” and “awful.” One Redditor even called it an “abomina

What can we expect from Apple’s rumored new 2026 MacBook, with an iPhone processor?

Analyst Ming–Chi Kuo has suggested that Apple plans to launch an all–new MacBook next year, powered by an iPhone processor. Specifically, he expects it to have the A18 Pro chip which currently powers the iPhone 16 Pro line–up. While there’s no word on pricing, the only way the report makes sense is if Apple is targeting an even lower price than the $999 starting–point of the current MacBook Air. Indeed, if you factor in discounted pricing on that, then it would have to be significantly cheaper.

One UI 8 Watch beta completely overhauls tiles on Galaxy Watch

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority TL;DR The One UI 8 Watch beta has released, and it brings new tile shapes. Many apps also support smaller tiles which can be stacked in pairs on a single screen. Most of these newly shaped tiles belong to Samsung apps, while other developers, including Google, continue to have circular ones. The Galaxy Watch 8 series has already leaked ahead of its expected arrival, and it has a divisive design change. But with changes to its hardware, Samsung is also plann

Apple’s insanely complex App Store terms could point to 20% commission globally

Apple last week announced an insanely complex set of changes to its App Store terms in the EU, and hidden in the small–print is one sign that the company might be reducing its standard commission from 30% to 20%, and that it may make this change globally. If so, it would be the first time the company has ever reduced its 30% cut for all developers, and might go a long way to tackling its legal battles with antitrust regulators around the world … We last week reported on a set of sweeping chang

The best iPhone accessories for 2025

There are often better and cheaper alternatives to Apple’s first-party accessories, but the company’s MagSafe wireless charger is worth considering if you have a new iPhone. Like all other MagSafe accessories, this charging pad uses magnets to attach to the back of the latest iPhones and it’s surprisingly strong. Not only can you safely pick up your handset and use it with the disk still attached, but the iPhone can dangle by the charger’s cord without falling off. (You still probably shouldn’t

How AI companies are secretly collecting training data from the web (and why it matters)

Getty/the_burtons Like most people, my wife types a search into Google many times each day. We work from home, so our family room doubles as a conference room. Whenever we're in a meeting, and a question about anything comes up, she Googles it. This is the same as it's been for years. But what happens next has changed.

Android 16 review: Post-hype

Google recently released Android 16, which brings a smattering of new features for Pixel phones, with promises of additional updates down the road. The numbering scheme has not been consistent over the years, and as a result, Android 16 is actually the 36th major release in a lineage that stretches back nearly two decades. In 2008, we didn't fully understand how smartphones would work, so there was a lot of trial and error. In 2025, the formula has been explored every which way. Today's smartpho

Home Office Setup Guide (2025): Webcams, Desks, Chairs, and More

Kuo: Apple to release cheaper MacBook powered by iPhone processor

Apple’s current entry-level laptop is the $999 MacBook Air, but analyst Ming-Chi Kuo believes Apple is aiming to launch an even more affordable model soon. He writes on X that Apple will go into production in late 2025 or early 2026 on a new MacBook model that will be powered by the A18 Pro chip, rather than an M-series processor. This is the same chip used in the iPhone 16 Pro line. The machine may feature colorful casing options, including silver, pink and yellow. Unfortunately, it isn’t yet
