If I had to start my entire Apple ecosystem from scratch, these would be my top picks

9to5mac.com Michael Burkhardt 2025-11-11 06:45:25

Let’s say there was some catastrophic event all of a sudden, and for whatever reason I needed to replace all of my Apple products at once. What would I end up buying? We’ll explore this scenario, and this’ll hopefully serve as useful advice for anyone just looking to expand their Apple ecosystem. For context, my ecosystem currently consists of a 128GB iPhone 16 Pro, a stainless steel Apple Watch Series 8, an M3 iMac with 2TB/24GB, an M4 MacBook Pro with 512GB/16GB, a 128GB iPad (A16), and a lig

iPadOS 26 beta 7 available now as public launch nears

Apple has released a new version of iPadOS 26 for developers, here’s what to expect from beta 7. Last week, Apple did something unusual and shipped two new iPadOS 26 betas to developers. Early in the week, beta 6 arrived, but it was followed on Thursday by a new build alongside the public beta. The second “beta 6” release didn’t bring any noticeable feature changes, but it must have included bug fixes Apple needed to implement before shipping the public beta.

Turning an iPad Pro into the Ultimate Classic Macintosh (2021)

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-11 21:09:36

I’ve started work on the next in my 1-bit Woodblocks series: “Tekagami” (Ito Shinsui’s “Hand Mirror”). So it’s a good time to talk about how I turned an iPad Pro into the ultimate Classic Macintosh. Emulators Both Macintosh emulators available on iOS we’re ported by @maczydeco who has done an amazing job making them feel truly at home on iOS. Many thanks! They need to be built from source using Xcode but it’s a pretty straight forward process. Mini vMac Supports System 1.1 to 7.5.5 Limited

Apple's iPad Air M3 is cheaper than ever right now

engadget.com Unknown 2025-11-12 14:05:41

For a lot of people, the iPad Air is Apple’s goldilocks tablet. It’s more powerful and available in a larger size than the entry-level iPad, but a lot less expensive than the iPad Pro, which can be overkill for some. Right now, there's a great Apple iPad Air M3 price drop on Amazon: you can get one for $150 less than usual. This deal applies to each configuration of the 11-inch and 13-inch versions of the most recent iPad Air. So, the 11-inch model is as low as $449, while the 13-inch model is

Apple Finally Destroyed Steve Jobs’ Vision of the iPad. Good

wired.com Craig Grannell 2025-11-12 10:00:00

For years, Apple treated the idea of windows on the iPad as sacrilege. But with iPadOS 26 installed, today’s iPads are doing macOS cosplay, becoming touchscreen Macs in all but name. And here’s the thing: It’s actually pretty good. So how did we get here? When did this fundamental shift occur that killed off Steve Jobs’ vision of the iPad? When Jobs first revealed the iPad in 2010, it was pitched as a “third category” of device—something between a phone and a laptop. For that category to justif

The best tablets for 2025: Tested and reviewed by our experts

Tablets are the perfect middle ground between your phone and laptop, giving you the best of both worlds. Whether you want a lightweight device to binge your favorite shows, a larger screen for mobile gaming or a portable way to get some work done on the go, a tablet can do it all. They’re also great for keeping kids entertained, managing work tasks or sharing family moments through video calls.

Changing these 6 settings on my iPad improved the battery life by hours

Adam Breeden/ZDNET As an avid iPad user, I'm all too familiar with the internal struggles that course through me when the battery is about to die. I love using either the iPad 11 or iPad Air to write and work, but I also use it to stream content, play games, and browse the internet after work. This makes me appreciate the iPad's long battery life, yet my anxiety grows when I start getting 'low battery' alerts without a charger nearby.

I Replaced My Mac With an iPad for an Entire Week. It Went as Well as You’d Expect

Even the most die-hard iPad fans have started to lose faith in recent years. Apple has constantly hobbled its tablet’s potential, twinning laptop-grade chips with an operating system that screamed, “You still need a Mac to do your work.” But now iPadOS 26 promises Mac-like multitasking, a revamped Files app, and proper background tasks. All of which sounds like something that should be fully investigated. Because we do things properly here at WIRED, this could not be a mere cursory glance at ne

M5 chip is coming to iPad before Mac, but this time will be different

Apple’s next-gen M5 chip is coming soon, debuting in this fall’s new iPad Pro model. But despite this being the second year in a row the iPad gets an M-class chip first, this time will be different for two key reasons. M5 chip debuting on iPad Pro will be different than last year’s M4 In May 2024, Apple did something it never had before: it debuted its next-gen M-class chip in an iPad. iPad Pro was no stranger to M-class chips, but until the M4, every other chip had arrived on the Mac first.

Back in 2018, Apple said it had no plans to merge iPadOS and macOS. So far, it’s kept that promise. Still, some Mac users keep wishing for a touchscreen MacBook, while some iPad fans want a more Mac-like experience. One YouTuber decided to build both, sort of.

Apple may not be merging macOS and iPadOS, but the two version 26 operating systems share a lot of similarities. Still, the quest to actually port the Mac operating system to the iPad continues. As Steve Troughton-Smith suggests Mastodon, “hackintosh” may soon refer to an iPad running macOS and not a homegrown Mac clone. “Apple may not bring macOS to iPad, but it looks like we’re getting to a point where people can hackintosh it together on a jailbroken device anyway,” he writes.
