Following the update to watchOS 26, the Apple Watch not only has a fresh user interface, but also exciting new features, including high blood pressure detection, Workout Buddy, third-party apps in the quick settings, and configurable widgets.

The Apple Watch Series 11 is advertised with a battery life of 24 hours instead of the 18 hours of the Apple Watch Series 10. However, the fine print reveals that the battery life is not actually expected to increase by 33% in practice, but rather only minimally.

Apple charges up to $799 for repairs of the iPhone 17 series. The manufacturer has now confirmed how much customers will have to pay to replace a defective display, a cracked back glass or a worn-out battery on the iPhone 17 (Pro) or the iPhone Air.

The recently launched iPhone 17 series is proving more popular than the iPhone 16, according to early preorder data and delivery lead times cited by analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. The iPhone 17 Pro Max leads demand, while the new iPhone Air shows mixed signals.

SPR AVS is debuting with the Apple iPhone 17, AirPods Pro 3, and Vision Pro, delivering lossless, low-latency wireless audio. The new protocol should work alongside Bluetooth for next-gen features.

A new Geekbench listing has now showcased the A19 Pro on the iPhone 17 Pro Max delivering exceptional numbers on both single-code and multi-core CPU tests, introducing the possibility of the Apple chipset matching Qualcomm's upcoming Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5.

Apple is far from finished with its plans for 2025, and early 2026 will also be exciting and packed with more new Apple products coming our way over the next six to seven months. According to Bloomberg analyst Mark Gurman, these will include not only new Apple M5-based MacBooks and iPads, but a total of 10 new Apple products.

Vivo's next flagship smartphones are now officially backed to run the latest version of Android out of the box. It will be skinned with OriginOS 6, a UI now also touted to rival the iOS 26 software of the new iPhone 17 series in a number of ways - the ability to connect, and swap files, with iPads and Macs included.

According to a new rumor, Apple is expected to shrink the Dynamic Island on the iPhone 18 and iPhone 18 Pro. However, the lineup may still miss out on the long-rumored under-display Face ID, meaning the pill-shaped cutout will remain for at least another generation.

The most glaring difference between the new iPhone Air and the 17 series alongside which it has debuted (apart from its thickness) is the fact that the former has just one rear camera. That will not hinder its ability to produce portrait-style photos, though, according to a new report. The Air is now said to be free of the limitations of Apple's last single-lens smartphone in doing so.

The iPhone Air is the thinnest handset that Apple has ever made, and buyers may have second thoughts about its battery life for a good reason. Apple, however, has found a novel way to increase the iPhone Air battery life.

Anyone who wants an ultra-thin flagship smartphone generally has to choose between Apple or Samsung, and make many compromises in doing so, especially in terms of camera and battery performance. That said, significantly less limited flagship devices from China are set to arrive on the market very soon, which are expected to impress in these two areas.

Apple's latest health-tracking feature has been cleared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in the US. The Cupertino giant estimates that it is capable of helping detect up to 1 million cases of undiagnosed hypertension within a year. Its Notifications have been unveiled on the new Watch Series 11 and Ultra 3.

The Apple iPhone 17 Pro has received two significant camera upgrades - a 48 MP telephoto camera with a larger sensor and an 18 MP selfie camera with a square sensor. However, Apple has failed to address a major weakness of the previous model, while its marketing is more misleading than ever.

Apple's latest first-party cases are touted to have a woven effect; however, Pitaka could be said to have been doing that first with products such as its aramid fiber-imbued ProGuard cases. The new iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max accessories have been unveiled alongside UltraGuard variants with even more sophisticated aramid technology, while Pitaka's Ultra-Slim Case is backed to bring everyday minimalist protection to the iPhone Air and 17 as well. Their high-end look and construction come with premium prices, though.

Live translations require iPhone models that support Apple Intelligence. This means only those who are using the fairly newer phones will be able to make use of this advanced feature.

The new iPhone 17 series introduces faster wired charging, with all models except the iPhone Air able to reach 50% in about 20 minutes when paired with the new 40W Dynamic Power Adapter.

A leaked Geekbench 6 Metal benchmark suggests Apple’s new A19 Pro GPU delivers a huge leap in graphics performance. The results place it close to one of the recent M series chips, marking a major improvement over last year’s A18 Pro and hinting at stronger gaming potential on upcoming iPhones.

The display of the Apple iPhone 16 Pro flickered at a frequency of 239Hz to reduce screen brightness via PWM. This can lead to eye strain and headaches for sensitive users. The iPhone 17 Pro now offers an option to completely deactivate PWM for the first time.

With the Apple "Awe Dropping" event closer than ever, all eyes are on the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, and iPhone 17 Pro flagship smartphones. However, a few Apple products are also almost certainly on their way out, which have been discussed here.

Apple is thought to have elaborated on the typical iPhone camera hump design for the first time in years with the imminent 17 series. Now, in what might be one of the last comments on the smartphones' design courtesy of a famous leaker prior to their official unveiling, the change is portrayed as being more functional than previously imagined. There are potentially disappointing, but perhaps inevitable, exceptions to this imagined upgrade, though.

Leaker UniverseIce has leaked the state of the Galaxy S26 Pro's bezels. Calling the situation "little progress", the leaker shows, by way of renders, that the Xiaomi 16 Pro has much thinner bezels than the Galaxy S26 Pro and the Galaxy S26 Edge.

The Apple iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air and iPhone 17 Pro are set to be officially unveiled on Tuesday. Photos from a reliable source now show what is likely one of the more unusual accessories that Apple is expected to introduce alongside its next-gen smartphones.

Apple is expected to soon unveil brand-new Powerbeats Fit earbuds, which will apparently feature a number of significant upgrades, including a smaller charging case and longer battery life. A reliable source has now revealed the price, key specs and launch date.

The Apple iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro have not even been officially introduced yet, but Moment is already offering a range of exciting accessories, including a variable ND filter, a shoulder strap adapter and an adapter for conventional 67mm camera filters.

With the exception of the iPhone 17 Air, all iPhone 17 models will apparently offer larger batteries than their predecessors. iPhones without a SIM card slot, which are also expected to launch in Europe for the first time ever, will have even more battery capacity, as revealed by a new certification.

The iPhone 17 Air will indeed debut as a thinner smartphone than the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge, according to a new leak. The rumored new kind of Apple flagship could also be lighter - although its Android nemesis might actually take up less space in other dimensions. Ironically, the S25 Edge might be more generous in some important ways.

Apple's mobile division has reportedly expanded the number of flash module suppliers it retains to four. Accordingly, the supposedly upcoming ultra-slim new iPhone has a chance of debuting with internal storage provided by either Kioxia or SanDisk, although that might vary from unit to unit. Those household NAND names might have a better chance of contributing internals to the 17 Air than some others.

A leaked South Korean carrier document outlines major changes for the iPhone 17 lineup, from triple 48 MP cameras with an 8x telephoto lens on the Pro models to new cooling and larger batteries. Shared by a user on X, the leak has already sparked a discussion on the social media platform.
