Bose’s New Bluetooth Speaker Looks Like a Solid Way to Annoy Everybody at the Beach

gizmodo.com James Pero 2025-09-18 01:00:04

The only thing I love more than foisting my music on other people at the park is doing it with a speaker that delivers solid or above-average sound quality. While I haven’t had a chance to use Bose’s new portable Bluetooth speaker, it seems like it could be a great option for doing just that. Bose’s SoundLink Plus is a midrange Bluetooth speaker that is very clearly designed for outdoor excursions since it can float and has an IP67 rating that makes it damn near waterproof and dustproof.

At WWDC 2025, Apple showed off plenty of changes in its preview for software upgrades due out later this year, but alongside visual shifts like Liquid Glass, the company also debuted a new Games app designed to be a hub for downloaded games. It's a continued push for iPhone, iPad and Mac owners to play and connect with others that comes as other gaming companies shift their strategies -- most notably, Apple announced its Games app days after Microsoft revealed its own ROG Xbox Ally, a powerful

In iOS 26, the Safari browser on iPhone has three different toolbar layouts to choose from

9to5mac.com Benjamin Mayo 2025-09-18 14:00:06

The iOS 26 Safari browser on iPhone evokes the new design system featuring Liquid Glass, with floating toolbars and buttons that shine through the web page content behind them as you scroll. Ever since the controversial iOS 15 Safari redesign, iPhone Safari has offered two layout modes ‘Tab Bar’ and ‘Single Tab’. In iOS 26, these are renamed to ‘Bottom’ and ‘Top’ respectively, and there’s a brand new default called ‘Compact’. While it should still feel familiar, all modes have received design c

Apple's Liquid Glass is Windows Vista done well

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-16 21:19:54

It's hard to look at Apple's new "Liquid Glass" aesthetic and not think about Windows Vista, Microsoft's much-maligned OS which also touted transparencies and glass-like effects as a bold new vision for computing. You can see the similarities between Apple's UI and Vista's "Windows Aero" design language everywhere, from the glassified app icons in iOS 26 and macOS Tahoe 26 which look a lot like VIsta's glossy icons, to the transparent backgrounds used in drop down menus, which hearken back to VI

Why I still recommend these Sonos headphones over competing models - including AirPods

zdnet.com Jada Jones 2025-09-18 12:00:23

Jada Jones/ZDNET Editor's note: This article was first published on June 6, 2025, and updated on June 10, 2025, when Sonos announced the Ace's latest software updates. It's been one year since Sonos released its first pair of consumer headphones, and although they made waves when they first dropped, how have they fared after the hype has died down? You can often find the Ace discounted for up to $120 off their original price, and if you're interested in them, that's the best time to buy them.

How iPadOS 26 convinced me to switch from Mac to iPad full-time - and why I don't regret it

M3 iPad Air running iPadOS 26 Developer Beta. Prakhar Khanna/ZDNET My biggest takeaway from WWDC 2025 is that I can finally use my iPad Air to its full potential. For the longest time, the iPad has been a product that I've wanted to add to my workflow but couldn't due to its rigid operating system -- one that doesn't necessarily complement the iPad's flexible hardware.

The 5 best iOS 26 features I want Android to copy ASAP

Joe Maring / Android Authority Well, Apple has done it. After releasing iOS 18 in 2024, this year’s iPhone update jumps up by eight to iOS 26. Not only is the new name significant, but thanks to Apple’s new Liquid Glass redesign, it’s also one of the most drastic iOS updates we’ve seen in years. While I hope the whole Liquid Glass thing stays far, far away from Android, there are some elements of iOS 26 that I actually quite like.

AOSP isn’t dead, but Google just landed a huge blow to custom ROM developers

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Google has made it harder to build custom Android ROMs for Pixel phones by omitting their device trees and driver binaries from the latest AOSP release. The company says this is because it’s shifting its AOSP reference target from Pixel hardware to a virtual device called “Cuttlefish” to be more neutral. While Google insists AOSP isn’t going away, developers must now reverse-engineer changes, making the process for supporting Pixel devices more difficu

Dhruv Bhutani / Android Authority The biggest buzz at WWDC 2025 was around Apple’s spanking new Liquid Glass interface. From a unified year-based naming scheme for its platforms to what might be the most extensive visual overhaul to iOS in years, iOS 26 marks a significant shift in Apple’s software approach. But is there substance beneath the divisive shiny sheen? I dove into the developer betas to give it a try. Let me preface this by saying this first beta is very buggy, and I wouldn’t recomm
