AirTag 2: Here’s what we’re expecting

9to5mac.com Michael Burkhardt 2026-01-26 15:22:43

Apple has long wrapped up its spring releases, including the new iPhone 16e, M4 MacBook Air, M3 iPad Air, and A16 iPad. While the iPhone 17 lineup will certainly be the star of the show for this fall’s hardware releases, there’s something a bit unique coming later this year: AirTag 2. Why AirTag 2 Despite the fact that it sounds like an uninteresting refresh, AirTag 2 will actually pack a number of relatively important upgrades for the everyday user.

5 features I don’t care about when buying a new phone

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-01-26 12:44:09

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority When it comes to buying a new smartphone, it’s easy to get caught up in all the hype. Manufacturers constantly push the latest and greatest features, leading many of us to buy more phone than we actually need. When I’m in the market for a new phone, I always try to narrow down my options as much as possible. I do that by making a list of not only the features I want in my next smartphone but also those I don’t care about. This approach helps me cut through th

I tested an Android phone with a built-in smartwatch - my thoughts after a month

I Accidentally Learned Just How Durable the Galaxy Z Flip 7 Is

If you're concerned about how durable Samsung's foldable phones can be, I'm here to tell you not to worry. And that's especially true when it comes to the new Galaxy Z Flip 7. After less than six hours with the Galaxy Z Flip 7, I accidentally performed my own informal drop test. At a catered affair in Brooklyn, I walked outside to get a view of the waterfront, and when I pulled the Z Flip 7 out of my pocket, I fumbled it.

Cops say criminals use a Google Pixel with GrapheneOS — I say that’s freedom

Calvin Wankhede / Android Authority Police in Spain have reportedly started profiling people based on their phones; specifically, and surprisingly, those carrying Google Pixel devices. Law enforcement officials in Catalonia say they associate Pixels with crime because drug traffickers are increasingly turning to these phones. But it’s not Google’s secure Titan M2 chip that has criminals favoring the Pixel — instead, it’s GrapheneOS, a privacy-focused alternative to the default Pixel OS. As som

Stone–Wales Transformations

Buckminsterfullerene is a molecule shaped like a soccer ball, made of 60 carbon atoms. If one of the bonds between two hexagons rotates, we get a weird mutant version of this molecule: This is an example of a Stone-Wales transformation: a 90° rotation in a so-called ‘π bond’ between carbon atoms. Here’s how it works in graphene: Graphene is a sheet of carbon molecules arranged in hexagons.

If there’s one thing we all want from our next smartphone, it’s more battery life. Thankfully, battery cells are bigger than ever, while processors are increasingly frugal. This means that many, but certainly not all, flagship and mid-range handsets can take us through a day without leaving us suffering from battery anxiety. However, some phones are definitely better than others at lasting through more demanding work/life balances or taking lighter users through a second day. Not to mention, th
