engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-27 04:44:04

We've been talking about it for months and now it's finally here. You can officially download iOS 26 on your phone — iPadOS 26 is also available, as well as Apple's other operating system updates — assuming you have an eligible device. If your device is compatible with the latest OS, you'll notice substantial changes when you install the new update. You may have already heard about "Liquid Glass," which (intentional or not) is sort of like Apple's take on the old Windows Vista design language.

Maria Diaz/ZDNET Apple's latest mobile operating system, iOS 26 -- yes, if you've not been keeping up, that's what will come after iOS 18 -- is finally here, and it's being pushed out to hundreds of millions of compatible iPhones worldwide.

Liquid Glass on iOS 26 Is Here to Stay, Whether You Like It or Not

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-09-27 04:18:33

The old debate of form over function remains true with iOS 26 and the final version that launched for all iPhones today. There’s all but a faint whiff of that long-promised Apple Intelligence, though you’ll still find plenty to love and more to complain about with the switch from iOS 18 all the way to the “26” generation. Remember to set aside some storage on iPhone, as the update will demand a good chunk. iOS 26 showed up as 6GB for me on my iPhone 14 Pro, coming from version iOS 18.6. (Apple

iPhone 17 Pro’s top features could make it an extremely popular upgrade

iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max are reportedly already selling exceptionally well. Despite personally opting for the iPhone Air, the 17 Pro’s success is no surprise to me. Why? Because Apple’s three top new features are exactly what users have been asking for. #1: Best battery life ever Ask the average person what improvements they want from their smartphone, and almost certainly battery life will be near the top of the list. The iPhone has become an essential tool for most of us. Increasing usage,

Did Google fix the Pixel 9’s lifeless photo colors on the Pixel 10? I’m shocked.

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-26 13:00:51

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority What Google did to photo colors on its last few Pixel phones is criminal. There is no other way to say this, but the degradation in color quality and science was so palpable since the Pixel 6, culminating in the washed-out photos of the Pixel 9 Pro. Even me, a staunch Pixel camera fan, had somewhat given up on getting good, lively photos from my phone last year.

My First Year Without an iPhone

He points to a clear indication that the iPhone 17 Pro Max is the star performer, although does acknowledge that demand for the iPhone Air may become clearer over time … To conduct his analysis, Kuo looked at two factors.

Rumor: smaller Dynamic Island but no under-screen Face ID for iPhone 18

As Apple continues towards their goal of a true all-screen iPhone, it looks like the iPhone 18 will get them one step closer.

Most recently, it was rumored that the iPhone 17 may have a smaller Dynamic Island, but that of course didn’t pan out.
