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

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-29 09:00:00

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

Review: Apple Watch Ultra 3 delivers off-grid connectivity as Series 11 extends battery

9to5mac.com Zac Hall 2025-09-29 10:00:00

When Apple Watch arrived in 2015, there was no way to send or receive data without an iPhone or wifi. Now these things can talk to space. It’s wild. Apple Watch Ultra 3 is the first version to include satellite connectivity, a feature introduced with iPhone 14 just three years ago. It comes standard in every Ultra 3 and enables the ability to contact emergency services without a cellular connection. Over the last few days, we’ve been testing Apple Watch Ultra 3 and Apple Watch Series 11. Check

Apple Watch Series 11 Review: Finally, the Watch Lives Longer

wired.com Adrienne So 2025-09-29 10:00:00

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. I say this to give the context of why such a little thing was so shocking. After wearing the new Apple Watch Series 11
