macOS Tahoe Incompatible with Mac Studio M3 Ultra

If you have a Mac Studio M3 Ultra and want to upgrade it to run macOS 26.0 Tahoe, then I’m afraid you’re going to have wait for Apple to build a new release that will install on your Mac. I’m very grateful to Ken who has tried unsuccessfully to upgrade from 15.7 to 26.0. There are plenty of others reporting exactly the same: the upgrade goes well until towards the end, then aborts and the Mac is restarted back into 15.7. The problem seems to originate from an error in its neural engine driver.

iPhone 17 Pro vs. iPhone 15 Pro: I compared both models, and here's why it's worth upgrading

Jason Hiner and Nina Raemont/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. The iPhone 17 series has arrived, and it comes with some pretty substantial upgrades both in terms of design and capabilities. We're talking longer battery life, more onboard memory, a bigger and brighter screen, and an improved camera system. If you've got an iPhone 15 Pro, your device is already two years old.

Why I recommend this Windows laptop to power users and professionals alike - even though it's for gamers

15-inch laptops occupy an interesting spot in the world of PCs: they're not as compact as 14-inch laptops, but they're not as bulky as 16-inch machines, either. Still, consumers seem to prefer the other two sizes, which is a shame because computers of this size deliver a balanced experience: a good amount of immersion without being too cumbersome.

iPhone 17 vs iPhone 15 Pro: What’s more worthwhile?

Apple recently announced its latest iPhone 17, 17 Pro, and iPhone Air models – and as we’ve seen, the base iPhone 17 gained a plethora of upgrades that have made it quite a compelling package.

Android Auto is now fixed on the Pixel 10 — unless it isn’t

OnePlus 15 leak teases what colors to expect, including that ‘SuperBlack’ option

Ryan Whitwam / Android Authority TL;DR A leak may have revealed the official color names for the OnePlus 15.

Its slim design aside, I like that it has four ports (two USB-C, two USB-A), and support for Type A, I, G, and C plugs, which allows it to work in over 200 countries and regions, according to Anker. In terms of USB power, it’s on the slow side — best for when you want to charge gadgets overnight. For instance, one of the USB-C ports can d

Ford's F-150 Lightning STX replaces the XLT while boosting range and power

Ford has unveiled a new F-150 Lightning variant called the STX that brings extra range and a rugged attitude to the lineup.

OnePlus 15’s leaked camera spec hints at higher zoom, but with a catch

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR OnePlus 15 camera leaks reveal a new focal length and aperture for the 50MP periscope telephoto lens. The new lens supposedly has a narrower f/2.8 aperture, a downgrade from the OnePlus 13’s f/2.6 aperture. Another possible leak suggests the OnePlus 15 might be cheaper due to cost-cutting measures, including a different display and the end of the Hasselblad partnership. OnePlus makes some excellent Android flagships, and the current generation OnePlus 13

Why haven't quantum computers factored 21 yet?

In 2001, quantum computers factored the number 15. It’s now 2025, and quantum computers haven’t yet factored the number 21. It’s sometimes claimed this is proof there’s been no progress in quantum computers. But there’s actually a much more surprising reason 21 hasn’t been factored yet, which jumps out at you when contrasting the operations used to factor 15 and to factor 21. The circuit (the series of quantum logic gates) that was run to factor 15 can be seen in Figure 1b of “Experimental real
