These are my favorite MagSafe stands for iPhone and StandBy

9to5mac.com Chance Miller 2025-11-19 21:45:36

One of my favorite iPhone features is StandBy, which turns your iPhone into a smart display when it’s in landscape orientation and charging. One of the best ways to take full advantage of StandBy is with an upright wireless charger. Head below for a closer look at some of my favorite MagSafe stands for iPhone, perfect for StandBy. What is StandBy mode? The StandBy feature was introduced in iOS 17 as a new lock screen mode that activates when an iPhone is charging and positioned on its side, i

Brands might be cooling on satellite features, and that’s bad news for cheaper Androids

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-20 06:36:10

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Chinese brands are scaling back satellite communication and keeping it for top-end models only. A reliable tipster says past high-end sat-com flagships sold poorly and were dropped. This could make global brands less likely to bring the feature to affordable phones. Satellite communication has been one of the most talked-about phone features in the past couple of years, and it’s no longer just for emergencies. Just this week, our APK teardown showed h

The Galaxy S26 Pro might kill the best Samsung phone for most people

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-21 03:30:34

Zac Kew-Denniss / Android Authority We’ve heard that Apple is planning to shake up its iPhone lineup this year by dropping the Plus model in favor of a thinner iPhone Air — going from the least-hyped iPhone to what’s sure to be an attention grabber. Samsung, too, introduced the Galaxy S25 Edge to show off a slimmer design on the Android side. But the rest of the S25 lineup? Boring with a capital B. There weren’t enough changes to justify it as a worthwhile early upgrade over the Galaxy S24 ser

MagSafe Monday: SUPCASE MagFlip wallet is a tank that doubles as a stand

MagSafe wallets typically aim to be super thin. The SUPCASE MagFlip takes the opposite approach and loads itself up with features. It’s all about function first, so it ends up quite a bit thicker than the typical MagSafe wallet, but it’s extremely useful.

‘Gags the Clown’ Leans Into an Urban Legend That Maybe Wasn’t a Legend

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-12-11 20:42:29

It’s been nearly a decade since an outbreak of clown sightings frightened people, first in the U.S. and then later across the globe. A clown in the right context isn’t necessarily scary, but a random clown just appearing with no obvious purpose is horror movie material. And, in fact, some of the creepy clown epidemic of 2016 can be traced back to Gags the Clown, a found-footage indie that turned some clever grassroots marketing into a stunt that went viral. Gags the Clown came out in 2018, whic

The Verge’s favorite backpacks, totes, and other bags for 2025

About two years ago, we ran an article in which Verge staffers talked about their favorite backpacks and other bags.

Skechers is making kids’ shoes with a hidden AirTag compartment

Skechers introduced a line of kids’ sneakers that contain a hidden compartment where parents can slip in an Apple AirTag. Inside the heel of the shoe, a small insert can be lifted to reveal the compartment. Then, parents can track the location of their child — or, at least their child’s shoes. These shoes don’t come with an AirTag, and they don’t appear to be an actual collaboration with Apple, but rather, a third-party product that Skechers has developed on its own.
