We may see a U.S.-China deal to keep TikTok alive this week, and details on how that long-delayed agreement could come together are steadily trickling out. The exact terms are yet to be unveiled, but based on initial public statements from the two countries’ representatives, it’s likely to include a U.S. spin-off of the highly popular social media app that would be owned by several American investors and would continue to rely on the Chinese algorithm running the platform.

Apple released iOS 26 on Monday, a few months after the company announced this year's iPhone software at the Worldwide Developers Conference in June. The update brings a lot of new features to your iPhone, like call screening, as well as a new Liquid Glass redesign. And Apple said if you download the update and notice your battery is draining faster than usual, that's normal and -- most importantly -- temporary.

Apple Watch Series 11 review: A reliable wearable for when it matters most

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-22 08:00:16

The tenth generation of the Apple Watch came and went without much fanfare last year, and the arrival of the Series 11 is similarly subdued. Not much appears to have changed with Apple’s smartwatch, with no redesign to be seen. Still, that isn’t to say the Apple Watch Series 11 is unimpressive or unexciting. It has new health-related features, improved durability, 5G connectivity, support for a wrist-flick gesture and, for the first time in years, the promise of longer battery life. The most no

The iPhone 17 just made USB-C charging even more of a nightmare

USB-C is an unfixable mess, that I’m convinced of, but a small part of me saw light at the end of the tunnel — that was until Apple launched the iPhone 17 series. With Apple’s latest phones, it’s now even harder for consumers to find the perfect plug to optimally fast-charge all their gadgets at once. Allow me to explain why. The good news, as it were, is that the iPhone 17 series claims “up to 50% charge in 20 minutes” with Apple’s new 40W Dynamic Power Adapter. That’s still not super fast, bu

For years, Apple has tried to extend the battery life of the Apple Watch. For as many years, the company has only succeeded by half measures. Features like Low Power mode or faster charging help you keep the watch on your wrist for longer, but Apple has not significantly improved the watch’s 18-hour battery life—even at last year’s much-hyped decade-versary of the Apple Watch.
