iOS 26 officially launches today, but some developers aren’t sure it should

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-10-01 12:20:08

Today is the day that iOS 26 finally emerges from beta and is officially launched. The headline feature is of course the Liquid Glass look, which has proved almost as controversial as the minimalist look of iOS 7 back in 2013. Apple has made some pretty substantial changes to the look of the operating system after beta testers complained about poor legibility and confusing design elements. Even so, some developers are not at all convinced that Liquid Glass is ready to be unleashed … Wired’s Cr

Apple's iPad Air M3 is back on sale for $150 off

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-01 14:33:34

If you've been on the fence about getting a new iPad then now might be the time to hop off it. Apple's iPad Air M3 is down from $599 to the record-low price of $450. The 25 percent discount applies to the 11-inch Wi-Fi model. We gave the iPad Air M3 an 89 in our review, thanks, in part, to its new chip. The M3 chip gives this generation's iPad Air a big boost over the M2 model — despite coming out less than a year apart. Plus, even without the discount, it's a more affordable option across Appl

iPhone 17 Pro vs. iPhone 14 Pro: Why I'm upgrading my three-year-old model

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: Everything announced at Appl

Rene Ramos/ZDNET/Apple Apple this week unveiled the new iPhone 17 lineup at its annual September hardware event, and its core smartwatch finally got a much-needed facelift. That's right, the Apple Watch SE 2 is officially retired, as the Watch SE 3 takes its place with fresh upgrades. The Watch SE 3 joins two other new wearables from Apple -- the Watch Series 11 and the more advanced Watch Ultra 3.

Android brands should learn honesty from Apple’s fast charger (?!)

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-01 17:45:30

TL;DR Apple’s new 40W Dynamic Power Adapter with 60W Max provides more transparent marketing than most other fast chargers. The charger’s branding differentiates between sustained power (40W) and peak power (60W). It supports the USB PD 3.2 AVS protocol, a step toward more open charging solutions, unlike many proprietary Android chargers. Apple launched the iPhone 17 series last week, but there was one new piece of hardware launched alongside it that flew under the radar: Apple’s new 40W Dyna

Epic Games versus Apple Australia ruling published – Apple calls it harmful

We last month learned that Epic Games had won its antitrust case against Apple in Australia, with the court ruling that the iPhone maker must permit side-loading and third-party payments. The full reasoning for that decision has now been published – all 900 pages of it – and Apple has accused the judge of underestimating the privacy and security risks to users … The case hinged on the usual question: What defines the dominance of the App Store?

AirPods Pro 3 review: A significant update to Apple’s best earbuds

If you’re not already wearing a pair of AirPods all day, Apple’s latest suite of features may convince you to do so. The company’s latest model, the AirPods Pro 3 ($249), is Apple’s most comprehensive update to its best set of earbuds. Flashy new features like Live Translation and heart-rate sensing will garner the bulk of the attention, but upgrades to active noise cancellation (ANC) and a significant boost in sound quality shouldn’t be overlooked.
