I want to love Apple’s new iPhone Air, but the iPhone 17 is a better deal

techcrunch.com Julie Bort 2025-10-09 16:21:14

My husband is a gadget enthusiast. He’s already on his second folding smartphone — a Galaxy Z Flip7 — after having a Motorola Razr when it first came out. I’m more of a “convince me” kind of gadget lover. If I see a reason to get excited, I’m in. Otherwise, I’ll stick with what I’ve got until I have a reason to upgrade. I still remember when Apple came out with Touch ID to end password fatigue. I bought one immediately. I’ve been in the Apple ecosystem for more than a decade because my work com

Sigourney Weaver Is a Fan of ‘Alien: Earth,’ Too

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-10-09 19:15:55

We’re on record saying just how good the new FX show Alien: Earth is but who are we? Just some weird website that writes about pop culture and technology. The real voices you want to weigh in on an Alien show are the people who are a part of it, and at the top of that list is Sigourney Weaver. Weaver played Ellen Ripley, or some version of her, in four Alien movies from 1979 to 1997 and is clearly the go-to when it comes to Alien.

After years of speculation, Apple’s AirPods Pro 3 are finally here, and while we haven’t tried them for ourselves, they look like they were worth the wait. This generation brings new hardware, features, and some impressive improvements on paper over the last generation, which was refreshed in 2023 with USB-C and a few other features.

The Most 'Awe Dropping' Part of Apple's iPhone 17 Event? AI Barely Came Up

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-10-09 20:41:00

The iPhone 17 is here. At Tuesday's "awe dropping" Apple event, we got the new iPhone 17 lineup, including a new ultra-slim model called the 17 Air, new AirPods Pro 3 and new Apple Watches. But it was what Apple didn't highlight that is most curious to me: its artificial intelligence, named Apple Intelligence. I counted only 11 mentions of "Apple Intelligence" during the 75-minute presentation, and most of them were passing references to how the new devices can support AI or existing features.

I Held Apple's Wildly Thin iPhone Air, and I'm Already Obsessed

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-10-09 20:41:00

Apple debuted its super-slim iPhone Air on Tuesday, and after getting my hands on the device at Apple Park in Cupertino, California, I'm amazed at just how thin and lightweight it really is. At just 5.6mm thick and 165 grams, it's one of those phones you may just have to hold to understand its appeal. I look forward to finding out if what's on the inside lives up to that show-stopping design. With the iPhone Air in one hand and my iPhone 16 Pro Max in the other, the difference between the two d

Hands-on with Apple’s new iPhones: Beauty and the beast and the regular-looking one

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-09 21:59:42

CUPERTINO, Calif.—We're a long way from the days when a new iPhone launch just meant one new phone. It shifted to "basically the same phone in two sizes" a decade or so ago, and then to a version of "one lineup of regular phones and one lineup of Pro phones" in 2017 when the iPhone 8 was introduced next to the iPhone X. But thanks to Apple's newly introduced iPhone Air, the iPhone 17 lineup gives new phone buyers more choices and trade-offs than they've ever had before. Apple's phones are now a

It’s my fifth year in a row writing about Apple’s annual iPhone event, and I have never actually been tempted to buy the latest and greatest iPhone. Like my colleague Julie Bort, I’ve always waited to upgrade my phone until it’s absolutely necessary. But then, the iPhone Air came along. I want it.

GPT-5 Is Making Huge Factual Errors, Users Say

It's been just over a month since OpenAI dropped its long-awaited GPT-5 large language model (LLM) — and it hasn't stopped spewing an astonishing amount of strange falsehoods since then. From the AI experts at the Discovery Institute's Walter Bradley Center for Artificial Intelligence and irked Redditors on r/ChatGPTPro, to even OpenAI CEO Sam Altman himself, there's plenty of evidence to suggest that OpenAI's claim that GPT-5 boasts "PhD-level intelligence" comes with some serious asterisks.
