This upcoming iOS feature will make spam phone calls an issue of the past

9to5mac.com Michael Burkhardt 2026-01-16 05:53:39

At WWDC25 this year, Apple announced a pair of new features to vastly improve the phone calling experience for iPhone users. Hold Assist does exactly what it says on the tin, and manages calls for you while you’re placed on hold – getting rid of the need to listen to dreaded hold music. The other feature, Call Screening, has much larger implications, and dealing with spam phone calls may become an issue of the past. 9to5Mac is brought to you by Incogni: Protect your personal info from prying e

The colors for Apple's iPhone 17 and 17 Air handsets were purportedly leaked last week, but there was no mention of the 17 Pro lineup. As of Thursday, that's no longer the case thanks to another leak. And the iPhone 17 Pro lineup might be in for a much bolder selection of colors when it drops later this year. Spotted by 9to5 Mac, well-known leaker Majin Bu added a new post to their blog, complete with renders of the four new colors the iPhone 17 Pro lineup will potentially consist of, including

How Android phones became an earthquake warning system

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-01-16 10:45:36

If you're the owner of an Android phone and live in a seismically active region, there's a chance your phone has popped up an unusual warning. Not one that asks for permission to share personal information, or potential malware, but something far more serious: There's an earthquake nearby, and you have up to a minute or two to get to a safer location. Starting in the US in 2020 and expanding internationally since, the system is called Android Earthquake Alert (AEA), and it's on by default in mo

Yes, the iPhone 17 Could Cost $2,400 With Tariffs. But Here's Why This Expert Says It's Unlikely

With President Donald Trump threatening a higher 25% tariff rate for items produced in South Korea and Japan -- two major US tech suppliers -- you might be wondering if the rumored iPhone 17 or other Apple devices like MacBooks or AirPods will cost more soon. The answer is... maybe. But tariffs aren't the only culprit.

Samsung DeX turns the Galaxy Z Flip 7 into a pocket-sized PC, but it’s missing one key feature

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-01-17 10:42:56

TL;DR The new Galaxy Z Flip 7 is the first in Samsung’s clamshell foldable lineup to support Samsung DeX, turning it into a compact, portable PC. DeX provides a full desktop experience on an external monitor and works with a wired connection, even when the phone is closed. While a powerful addition, it lacks the ability to use the cover screen as a touchpad, a feature found on competing Razr phones.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 Specs vs. Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold: How Each Fold Phone Compares

Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 7 debuted the biggest redesign the book-style folding phone line has seen thus far. The new phone has a body that's slim enough to feel like a standard phone when closed and unfolds to reveal an 8-inch display. This reimagining also comes at a higher $2,000 price, making it easily the priciest phone of its category compared with similar offerings like Google's $1,799 Pixel 9 Pro Fold.

It’d combine my favorite form factor with my favorite Android skin, and I’d never need to recommend anything else again. I’d have Google’s top-notch image processing to balance out the often-limited flip phone cameras, years of updates to look forward to, and a cover screen experience that only needs a proper app drawer to leap ahead of Samsung’s Flex Window.

The foldable is rumored to launch in October, but with availability limited to China and South Korea.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 review: Foldable phone nirvana (for a price)

After several generations of iterative updates, it feels like Samsung tossed the Galaxy Z Fold 7 into a Hyperbolic Time Chamber to create a stunning device that's leaner, stronger and more powerful than before. The best part though is the phone looks and functions just like a regular handset now that there’s less bulk to lug around. But at a moment's notice, it can go Super Saiyan by opening up to reveal an even larger 8-inch display to become a true multimedia Raidboss. Unfortunately, it's stil
