iPhone Fold and iPhone 18 Pro set to get faster mobile data

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-09-17 11:07:47

Sure, the iPhone 17 lineup hasn’t even shipped yet, but that doesn’t stop the news cycle rolling on. A new report details the chipset we can expect to find inside the iPhone Fold and the iPhone 18 Pro models. This will of course include the A20 chip, the first to be made using a 2-nanometer process, but the report suggests we can expect mobile data speeds to be faster thanks to a new Apple modem chip … A20 chip for iPhone Fold and iPhone 18 The iPhone 17 models use TSMC’s 3nm process, but the

Here’s Apple’s official method to charge your Apple Watch faster

9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2025-09-18 08:39:22

With iOS 18, Apple introduced a “Slow Charger” warning for iPhone users looking to diagnose or improve the charging speed of their iPhones. Now, the same warning is coming to watchOS 26. Here’s how to find it. As spotted by MacRumors, Apple published a new support page this week with new details about Apple Watch charge speeds. As the document explains it: “With watchOS 26, if your Apple Watch detects that your charging experience could be improved, you’ll see a Slow Charger message in Settin

macOS Tahoe Incompatible with Mac Studio M3 Ultra

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-18 08:38:01

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.

Ben Stiller to star in new Apple TV+ limited series, after stepping back from Severance directing role

9to5mac.com Benjamin Mayo 2025-09-18 12:37:21

Apple TV+ is staying in the Ben Stiller business. After reeling in the success of Severance, which Stiller was intimately involved with in the first two seasons, the streamer has managed to sign up Stiller in a rare acting capacity. He will star, alongside Jessica Chastain, in a new eight-part limited series called “The Off Weeks”. The series follows a writing professor (Stiller) who is going through a messy divorce, and engages in a romance with the mysterious Stella West (Chastain). For her p

The iPhone 17 makes the iPhone 16e even more pointless

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-18 03:30:00

We were pretty underwhelmed by the iPhone 16e when it debuted earlier this year, mostly due to its $599 price tag, which makes it a poor replacement for the budget-oriented iPhone SE. And now that the iPhone 17 has debuted, the 16e makes even less sense. For $200 more, you get a larger and better screen with ProMotion, support for MagSafe wireless charging, a zippier processor, two cameras instead of one — and double the storage. Sure, that price difference hurts a bit, but I think the iPhone 17

iPhone 17 Pro Review: Practical Perfection With Two Capital P’s

2025 Deciding on whether to get an iPhone 17 Pro or 17 Pro Max couldn’t be easier. These two “pro” phones have no compromises. Whereas the iPhone Air is all about showing off its ridiculously thin and light design, the iPhone 17 Pros go in the opposite direction with thicker and heavier designs. Apple is basically saying, “F*ck all that skinny noise, let’s throw everything but the kitchen sink at them.” Even better cameras on the front and back? Check. The longest battery life of any iPhone?

Apple promises software update to fix ‘very rare’ iPhone Air camera glitch

Apple prepares suppliers for an iPhone sales boost next year, fueled by the new foldable model

9to5mac.com Benjamin Mayo 2025-09-18 16:31:40

Apple is apparently preparing its supply chain for an uptick in new iPhone sales next year, according to a new report by Nikkei. The company has apparently targeted sales of about 95 million iPhone 18 models in 2026, noting that the new lineup won’t arrive until the fall. While the new foldable model will draw interest, Apple is expecting sales to be up across all iPhone 18 models. The company seems to be indicating that it expects a halo effect, where people are enticed into upgrading based on

A MacBook Pro touchscreen? About damn time

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-18 19:00:00

It's somewhat ironic that Apple, the company that popularized the use of capacitive touchscreens with the iPhone and iPad, has been staunchly opposed to bringing our fingers anywhere near MacBook screens. Meanwhile, Microsoft and PC makers jumped at the opportunity to build touchscreen laptops years ago. The tablet-focused Windows 8 was a failure, sure, but touchscreens led to excellent convertible notebooks and hybrid tablets like the Surface lineup. Now, according to a new rumor from longtime

Every so often, Apple makes a design decision that draws a line in the sand. One that feels like a delineation between one era and the next. The iPhone Air is that kind of device. It’s strikingly thin and sets a new standard for how an iPhone should feel in your hand.
