iPhone 17 Pro vs. iPhone 14 Pro: Why I'm upgrading to this years model after three years

zdnet.com Maria Diaz 2025-10-15 16:11:00

Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. As a current iPhone 14 Pro Max user, I still feel like my three-year-old iPhone gives me everything I need from a smartphone. Sure, it may still have a Lightning Port and no support for Apple Intelligence, but I get around those very minor discomforts by using a MagSafe charger and ChatGPT. Truth be told, the Apple Intelligence features haven't wowed me enough to make me fork over $1,000 on a newer iPhone. Also: Apple Event live updates: Ev

These Newly Discovered Deep-Sea Snailfish Just Became Our Latest Obsession

The deep sea is home to some of the weirdest creatures on Earth, from ghostly elder fish to carnivorous harp sponges. Sometimes, scientists discover more humble creatures that are so tiny that they go unnoticed until new technology brings them into view. Such efforts rarely disappoint.

How eSIMs Work, and How to Switch to One From a Standard SIM

wired.com David Nield 2025-10-15 16:00:00

The physical SIM cards we've used for decades are slowly being phased out. With the Pixel 10 series, Google's phones have gone eSIM-only for the first time—at least if you buy them in the US. Apple made the same move with the iPhone 14 in 2022, and now its new iPhone 17 models will operate with eSIMs in a dozen countries, with the slim iPhone Air going eSIM-only everywhere in the world. But how is eSIM different, and what do you need to do to switch? The good news is that by most measures, eSI

Philips Norelco i9000 Shaver Review (2025): A Close Shave

You never really expect your shaver to have an opinion about you. And yet here I was, receiving a failing grade from Philips Norelco’s new i9000 Prestige Ultra shaver, released this spring. According to a phone app paired to the device, I had apparently been using my shaver wrong. I'd pressed too daintily, whispering along my skin too lightly for an optimal shave. My stats were, in fact, downright abysmal. I had applied optimal pressure just 30 percent of the time. By extension, I had probably

Apple’s misunderstood crossbody iPhone strap might be the best I’ve seen

The skepticism I had about Apple’s rumored crossbody iPhone strap can be put to rest now that it’s officially announced as part of yesterday’s big iPhone 17 event. I’m suitably impressed.
