What to expect (and not expect) from yet another September Apple event

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-13 17:54:46

Apple's next product event is happening on September 9, and while the company hasn't technically dropped any hints about what's coming, anyone with a working memory and a sense of object permanence can tell you that an Apple event in the month of September means next-generation iPhones. Apple's flagship phones have changed in mostly subtle ways since 2022's iPhone 14 Pro added the Dynamic Island and 2023's refreshes switched from Lightning to USB-C.

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-10-13 20:19:22

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

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

gizmodo.com James Pero 2025-10-14 01:30:15

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

Bose overhauls the QuietComfort Ultra Headphones with lossless audio and longer battery life

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-14 17:00:18

Bose announced a refresh of its QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds over the summer and now it's back with an overhaul of its flagship noise-canceling headphones. The company has employed the second-generation moniker once again on the new QuietComfort Ultra Headphones, but this time the list of updates is a bit more substantial. Bose says it made tweaks to audio performance, active noise cancellation (ANC), battery life, power efficiency and more. Surprisingly, the company managed to make its upgrades w

This Extremely Slim Phone Is Hitting Apple and Samsung Where It Hurts

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-10-14 17:00:04

You have to travel across the world to find just how Americans are devoid of choice for interesting phones. At IFA 2025, I went hands-on with Tecno’s Slim phone—or at least I tried to hold onto its incredibly thin frame. It’s an apt name for such an irregular phone, one that has me asking whether Samsung and—potentially—Apple need to rethink what people really want from frisbee-light phones. China-based Tecno has a penchant for weird mobile devices. The company recently revealed a Phantom Ultim

Good news for people who love powerful active noise cancellation, aka ANC: Bose’s QuietComfort Ultra Headphones are back, and they’re getting a few notable upgrades. The QuietComfort Ultra Headphones (2nd Gen) will open up for preorder starting next week on Sept. 10, and if you’re a fan of listening to headphones wired instead of wireless, this is probably the pair for you.

The Morning After: DJI’s tiny Mic 3 can record four subjects at once

It was a quiet Labor Day weekend for tech, but the Engadget team has kept busy testing out new gear from the likes of DJI, Sony and Bose. I want to kick things off with the new flagship DJI Mic 3. The wireless mics have a wholesale design change from the Mic 2, plus many improvements in sound quality, noise reduction and the number of subjects you can record at once — though there is one downgrade compared to the last model. I’ve had one for over a week, so I’ll share some impressions as well.
