9to5mac.com Benjamin Mayo 2025-10-02 12:59:43

The iPhone 17 is seemingly resonating with Chinese consumers, with seemingly strong preorder sales volume. The South China Morning Post reports that iPhone 17 sales at JD.com (a large online Chinese retailer) within the first hour of preorders going on sale exceeded the first day of iPhone 16 preorders last year. The base iPhone 17 with 256 GB storage was said to be the most popular model. Meanwhile, the launch of the iPhone Air is indefinitely delayed while Apple waits for eSIM-related regulat

I compared the iPhone 17, iPhone Air, 17 Pro, and 17 Pro Max: Here's who should upgrade

zdnet.com Cesar Cadenas 2025-10-01 23:27:58

Jason Hiner/ZDNET Apple's iPhone 17 lineup has officially arrived, bringing four new devices to the table. As expected, the series consists of upgrades to past models such as the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max. But this generation is shaking things up by introducing the iPhone Air -- a new addition that Apple says is "the thinnest iPhone ever made." And for the first time in several generations, there will not be a "Plus" model. Also: Apple iPhone 17 event recap: iPhone Air pr

The most recent "awe dropping" Apple event keynote has come and gone once more, with reveals of the latest iPhones, AirPods and Apple Watches.

Joe Maring / Android Authority Every Apple event, be it WWDC or the new iPhone launch, brings me a set of confusing thoughts. There’s a lot of mockery over what Apple has decided to copy innovate and their random announcements that no one asked for (hello, iPhone Air), but also a bit of jealousy-slash-awe at Apple’s pull over the entire phone industry.

iPhone 17 vs iPhone 15 Pro: What’s more worthwhile?

9to5mac.com Michael Burkhardt 2025-10-02 02:03:00

Apple recently announced its latest iPhone 17, 17 Pro, and iPhone Air models – and as we’ve seen, the base iPhone 17 gained a plethora of upgrades that have made it quite a compelling package. That begs the question, does a 2 year old ‘Pro’ iPhone still have a leg up, or should you just go with the new base model iPhone 17?

For the first time, iPhone 17 Pro truly feels deserving of the ‘Pro’ moniker

9to5mac.com Michael Burkhardt 2025-10-02 06:32:20

Apple introduced the Pro moniker for iPhones six years ago with the iPhone 11 lineup. However, with the iPhone 17 lineup in particular – it feels like Apple truly developed a professional iPhone for the first time. I’ll explain. ‘Pro’ is no longer just flashy First things first, this year’s iPhone 17 Pro is no longer the flashy model, unlike previous Pro iPhones. With this years switch from Titanium to Aluminum, the iPhone 17 Pro simply uses the same material as the standard iPhone 17 model.

"In space on a spaceship right now." The sky's the limit for how outrageously implausible some scams can get. Actually, try beyond the atmosphere.

The systems that enable modern life share a common origin. The water supply, the internet, the international supply chains bringing us cheap goods: each began life as a simple, working system. The first electric grid was no more than a handful of electric lamps hooked up to a water wheel in Godalming, England, in 1881. It then took successive decades of tinkering and iteration by thousands of very smart people to scale these systems to the advanced state we enjoy today. At no point did a single
