For the sake of this iPhone 17 Pro review, I’ve developed a gaming addiction. I don’t mean triple-A games like Destiny: Rising and Genshin Impact, or even double-A or non-A titles like Inside or Vampire Survivors, both of which I greatly enjoy. I’m specifically referring to Snake Clash on YouTube Games — the type of thing you mindlessly play while pretending to watch a documentary on TV, or while slowly growing a hemorrhoid as you waste away on the throne. The reason I’ve been playing so much

Apple's iPhone 17 lineup brings some of the biggest design changes the smartphone series has seen in years, and no two models better highlight this shift than the iPhone Air and iPhone 17 Pro Max.

It’s a tricky year to review the iPhone Pro. It’s long been the go-to choice for anyone who wants an iPhone with the nicest screen, longest battery, and great cameras. But the display is no longer unique to the Pro, cameras have largely gotten “good enough” on most phones, and Apple has a new model, the Air, which might be even more compelling. This is the first time the iPhone Pro feels like it’s truly targeted at creators — people who need the longest battery life and the best cameras to reco
Jason Hiner/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. The iPhone "Pro" label has always represented the bleeding edge of Apple's industrial design. This year, I'm second-guessing if that philosophy still holds true in Cupertino. Going into Apple's Awe-dropping event earlier this month, my attention was reserved for the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max, both of which were expected to feature a new vapor chamber cooling system -- resolving a longstanding issue of overheating on Pr

Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo suggests that demand for the new iPhone 17 lineup is strong, with initial orders beating out those for last year’s iPhone 16. He points to a clear indication that the iPhone 17 Pro Max is the star performer, although does acknowledge that demand for the iPhone Air may become clearer over time … To conduct his analysis, Kuo looked at two factors. First, what he believes he knows about production volumes for each model via supply chain sources. Second, how quickly ship
Right-wing internet personality and Turning Point USA cofounder Charlie Kirk was shot and killed on Wednesday during a speaking engagement at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah.

Apple fans who normally gravitate to the Pro-level iPhones need to rethink their buying habits. The upcoming $1,100 iPhone 17 Pro isn’t better than the regular 17 for any obvious reason you can glean from staring at the pleasing orange surface. You have to look below the aluminum and beyond the giant camera bump to see what’s really going on. The iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max are finally stepping out of the amateur league and are going “pro,” as their names suggest. The regular iPhone 17 sounds lik

David Zaslav, the CEO of Warner Bros. Discovery, plans to make HBO more expensive, and passwords a lot harder to share, according to The Hollywood Reporter . Zaslav shared his general outlook on the state of television at the Goldman Sachs Communacopia + Technology Conference, with the main theme being that HBO Max's content is good and Zaslav thinks he should be charging a lot more for it. "The fact that this is quality — and that’s true across our company, motion picture, TV production and st
Someone might want to tell David Zaslav to read the room. Despite people’s ongoing frustration with the rising prices of streaming services—and just about everything else—the CEO of Warner Bros.

Verge senior reviewer Jennifer Pattison Tuohy recently tested the FamiLock S3 Max, and found a lot to like.

Android flagships, especially from Chinese OEMs, often pack the most bleeding-edge tech, making them the top choice for phone enthusiasts. Apple’s iPhone, on the other hand, is made for the average consumer — the phones don’t usually pack the latest technology, but their undeniable popularity sets them as the standard against which top Android flagships are judged. Things are changing this year for the better, as Apple is making some big upgrades with the iPhone 17 series, but as expected, it’s

After a successful Kickstarter campaign, Valerion is formally announcing its new premium projector, the VisionMaster Max, at IFA 2025. The boxy little projector offers improved contrast and brightness, but the feature that should be most interesting to home theater aficionados is how it tries to address the "rainbow effect" common in some cheaper projectors. Cheaper DLP projectors sometimes display stuttery strobes of color when the projector's color wheel is forced to quickly shift between col
When The Conjuring was released in 2013, it felt like a nostalgic nod to eerie 1970s horror movies like The Changeling or The Manitou. From its simple opening title card -- yellow text on a black background -- to its relatively little gore and slow build of suspense, The Conjuring was a breath of fresh air. It arrived at a time when the horror genre was rampant with gruesome movies like Saw (which was also directed by Wan) and Hostel. The Conjuring kick-started not just a film franchise, but a
Less than a week before Apple officially unveils all the details on its iPhone 17 lineup, the rumor mill is buzzing with estimates of what each of the four predicted model types will cost.
