iPhone Gaming Is Convoluted. Here's What the iPhone 17 Needs to Sway Me as a Gamer

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-12-06 22:00:20

I've been trying to use my iPhone as a gaming handheld for years but I often hit the same roadblocks when trying to have it replace my Nintendo Switch when I travel. And it's not for lack of Apple and other companies trying, as there's tons of gaming content available for the iPhone between titles that run directly from the device to more-intensive games that I can stream over a strong internet connection. Gaming on the iPhone is more convoluted than it should be and it's frankly easier to do o

Anker makes some of our favorite power banks, and one with a Qi2 charging function and 10,000mAh capacity is currently on sale. You can snap it up for $60. That's a 25 percent discount on the list price of $80. It is also the lowest price for this model so far in 2025. The power bank is currently available

These 7 Rumored iPhone 17 Pro Max Features Just Might Convince Me to Upgrade

Because photography is important to me, I've always picked the iPhone Pro with its telephoto camera over the regular iPhone models. But each year I'm pulled in two directions: Pick the standard-sized iPhone Pro or the larger iPhone Pro Max? Some years the latter includes photo features not found on the regular iPhone Pro, such as the 5x zoom that was exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro Max. And as we approach the reveal of the next iPhone 17 lineup, I'm once again waffling between sizes. And based on

It’s unclear if Apple is referring to its A series chips that are the heart and soul of iPhones.
