9to5mac.com Zac Hall 2025-12-11 02:32:04

When Apple unveils the iPhone 17 lineup next month, it seems like we’ll also see a new version of Apple’s first-party protective cases as well. If the latest rumors are true, the iPhone 17 case lineup will take a design cue from the AirPods Pro 2 charging case. It appears Apple is planning to add support for an optional lanyard loop to its official iPhone 17 cases. That’s according to leakers Majin Bu and DuanRui. Apple already includes a similar lanyard loop slot on the AirPods Pro 2 charging

The Pixel 10 series launches later this month, and recent leaks suggest that Google will finally bring Qi2 magnetic wireless charging to these phones via built-in magnets. Google wouldn’t be the first Android OEM to offer this support (hello, HMD), but it’s still a major expansion of the tech. Colleague Joe Maring says this leak has convinced him to buy a Pixel 10 phone. But what do readers think of this technology on the Pixel 10 series? We asked, and here’s what you told us.

Totem Compass Review: Find Your Friends, No Reception Required

I attend a minimum of 3 EDM festivals every year, and they all have one thing in common: There’s no phone service anywhere. It’s almost a meme at this point. Trying to send a text message at a festival will have you walking around with your phone in the air, praying that it’ll send. Don’t even think about trying a phone call—it’ll fail every time. It’s gotten to the point where my friends and I started time-stamping our text messages: “I’m at the Forest Stage, 2:42 pm.” The Totem Compass is the

The existence of Star Trek: Phase II—the plans for a Star Trek continuation series in the mid-1970s that eventually gave way to Star Trek: The Motion Picture—has been known for a very long time at this point. We’ve seen concept art, we’ve seen story ideas, and we’ve seen it for long enough to see how those nuggets have gone on to influence the Star Trek that we would go on to get for another 50 years.

Ever since foldable phones first appeared, I’ve had a complicated relationship with them.
