iPhone Air hands-on: The super sleek precursor to Apple’s upcoming foldable

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-09 19:43:30

Apple might not admit it (at least not yet), but the iPhone Air is more than just a slimmed-down version of the company's latest handset or a more sophisticated take on its usual Plus model. It's a super sleek preview of its upcoming foldable. Now this might seem like a stretch and there's something to be said about the difference between a traditional OLED display and one that's meant to be bent.

The iPhone 17 boasts a larger display with ProMotion support and a 120Hz refresh rate

In an absolute shocker, an early September Apple event included the official reveal of the iPhone 17. Who could have seen that coming? Arguably the biggest change this time around — in the most literal sense — concerns the display. At 6.3 inches, it's larger than the iPhone 16's 6.1-inch screen. Sorry to iPhone users with smaller hands and anyone else who is fed up of every phone becoming more of a phablet. The bezels are thinner too.

The FDA approves human trials for pig kidney transplants

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-10 07:54:16

Despite how it sounds, a xenotransplant isn't something from the latest Alien movie. It's an increasingly credible science: the transplantation of animal organs into humans. The field took one of its biggest leaps forward on Monday. The FDA approved the biotech company eGenesis to begin human trials of pig-to-human kidney transplants. eGenesis provides pigs with CRISPR-modified genes. These genetic changes reduce the chances of organ rejection in human recipients. The FDA approved the company f

Glen Powell Credits ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ Star Chris Pratt with Ushering in a New Kind of Leading Man

Everything’s currently coming up Glen Powell—but as far as he’s concerned, he’s standing on the backs of actors before him. In GQ’s latest cover story, the Running Man actor talked a lot about the stars who helped him breakout, even indirectly. Chief among them, according to Powell at least, is Chris Pratt as Star-Lord in the first Guardians in the Galaxy. It can be easy to forget, but the transformation from Andy to Peter Quill was a big deal back in the 2010s, and Powell credits Powell with a

A new species of bacteria has come to light in Brazil. It’s genetically similar to two other disease-causing bacteria from the Andes, which are known to infect humans through sand fly bites. According to a study published this summer in the journal Acta Tropica, researchers have discovered a new bacteria species in phlebotomine insects (sand flies) in the Amazon National Park in Brazil’s state of Pará.
