Nearly 70% of iPhone users plan to upgrade to iPhone 17 - here's why (it's not AI)

Sabrina Ortiz/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. ZDNET's key takeaways More than 68% of iPhone users plan to upgrade to an iPhone 17. Battery life is the top reason cited for upgrading. The high price of a new iPhone is one reason for not upgrading. Will you be lining up to buy an iPhone 17 when the new phone debuts later this month? If so, you're in good company. A majority of the 2,000 existing iPhone owners recently polled by phone reseller SellCell said they ai

Sharing Is Scaring: Linking Cloud File-Sharing to Programming Language Semantics

Sharing Is Scaring: Linking Cloud File-Sharing to Programming Language Semantics Skyler Austen, Shriram Krishnamurthi, Kathi Fisler SPLASH Onward!, 2025 Abstract Users often struggle with cloud file-sharing applications. Problems appear to arise not only from interface flaws, but also from misunderstanding the underlying semantics of operations like linking, attaching, downloading, and editing. We argue that these difficulties echo long-standing challenges in understanding concepts in progra

Is It Legal to Record Audio or Video on a Home Security Camera? Here Are the Rules

The core purpose of a security camera is to keep eyes on your home -- but how do privacy laws affect their use? You should know if you could get in trouble before getting a security camera that could watch anyone from joggers on the street to babysitters in your home. The good news is that your security monitoring should be fine in most cases, especially with a little common sense. But there are rules everyone should know before using live views or downloading video clips. Let's start with the

What Does 'Awe Dropping' Even Mean? Decoding Apple's iPhone 17 Event Announcement

Apple's big fall event is less than a week away, and we're still puzzling over the tagline and animated logo that accompanied invitations to the Sept. 9 "Awe dropping" gathering. Is the iconic Apple logo on fire? Does it portend a new heat-sensing feature of the Vision Pro that will make you feel like a Predator hunting prey through the jungle? Or maybe a designer at Apple just came up with a cool-looking effect and thought it would be fun to use it? Nah, the company has a history of enigmatic

ReMarkable Paper Pro Move Review: A Small Yet Mighty Digital Notebook

I love a list. I can happily write the same to-do list in six different places in a single day (good thing I test digital notebooks and paper planners). I often find myself rewriting the little brainstorms in my Notes app because the ideas are still banging around in my brain, asking to be let free onto a page, digital or not. But not every brainstorm or list needs a full-size page. That's where ReMarkable's latest digital notebook comes in. The reMarkable Paper Pro Move ($449) takes the same t

Remarkable’s new digital notepad is smaller than a paperback

The new Remarkable Paper Pro Move feels like what you’d be left with if you were to snap last year’s Paper Pro in half over your knee. With a 7.3-inch screen, it’s

I’d be more excited about the Pixel 10 Pro if it had this iPhone camera feature

Dhruv Bhutani / Android Authority The Pixel 10 Pro sits in quite an awkward spot this year. The main differentiator between the standard Pixel and the Pro model has long been the third camera, but that gap closed with the Pixel 10 also rocking a three-cam setup this time. Getting a solid telephoto camera on a $200 cheaper phone already sabotages the 10 Pro’s position as the real ‘Pro’ for most people. Since Google’s phones are known for cameras — they are called Pixels after all — the Pixel 10

Battery sizes on flagship phones are about to explode

Paul Jones / Android Authority TL;DR A leaker has claimed that three upcoming Pro flagship phones will see notable battery capacity upgrades.

OpenAI Gets Conspiracy-Brained, Sues Nonprofits

Sam Altman and Elon Musk have been locked in an ongoing standoff over the fact that OpenAI has operated like a for-profit business despite its nonprofit status.

New ‘Vision Air’: Here’s how much lighter and less expensive it might be
