Premiering October 2, The Last First: Winter K2 promises “an unflinching look at the industry of extreme mountain climbing and its changing culture.” Watch the trailer below.

A new TrendForce report says the iPhone Duo is expected to capture 24,8% of the foldable smartphone market in 2026 alone, countering a 20% slump in the segment. Here are the details.

If you missed yesterday’s “Surprise and Shine” event and don’t feel like watching the entire hour-plus-long video, Apple’s YouTube Channel has got you covered. Watch the event recap below.

iPhone Duo was unveiled this week, but won’t ship until October. And Apple reportedly has many other new products set to debut in October too, here’s what’s coming.

Apple is giving the Apple TV Remote app experience a lot of love in iOS 27. That’s as good a sign as any that a new Apple TV 4K box is on the way.

Following the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Duo announcement this week, Apple has started accepting iPhone Air and iPhone 17 trade-ins for credit. However, the iPhone Air offer is a bit of a sore spot, especially after this week’s price increases.

Apple TV has a strong fall lineup coming up, including four weeks straight of big premieres that kick off next week with critical hit Slow Horses. Here’s what’s coming.

Apple unveiled its new Apple Watch Ultra 4 and Apple Watch Series 12 lineup yesterday, plus the all-new AirPods 5. They hit shelves next Friday, September 18.

Ahead of that launch, Apple’s new lineup is now available to pre-order on Amazon.

• Pre-order Apple Watch Series 12
• Pre-order Apple Watch Ultra 4

Look, no offense to Apple Vision Pro. I’m sure Apple Vision Pro is a very nice person. But iPhone Duo and Apple Vision Pro are not the same.

There’s a take that the iPhone Duo may have the Apple Vision Pro problem. The idea is that due to its price and device-specific software, it may be a miss and not a hit. The two things are not the same.

iPhone 18 Pro packs lots of camera upgrades (great rundown here), with the tentpole addition being variable aperture. But there’s one other Main camera change that users like me might deem their favorite.

Now that the iPhone Duo is official, how do its hardware specifications compare with the similarly sized Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8? Let’s find out.

This week alongside its iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Duo unveilings, Apple launched a brand new Wrist Strap accessory for iPhone. Here are the details.

When iPhone Duo arrives next month, many third-party apps might not work as well as Apple’s built-in apps. There’s a reason for that, at least initially, though the situation should improve over time.

Those with very long memories might have spotted a resemblance between the iPhone Duo and a prototype device seen way back in 2009, the Microsoft Courier.

My headline is, of course, tongue-in-cheek: Microsoft never got any further than the prototype, and abandoned the project less than a year later. All the same, it is remarkable now to look back at it and see just how similar it is in terms of the integrated user-interface …

Apple launched two new Watch models yesterday: Apple Watch Series 12 (pre-order) and Apple Watch Ultra 4 (pre-order). And new findings reveal that they each have a surprise upgrade not mentioned by Apple: double the RAM of their predecessors.

Snap is launching a new mobile app feature called Snapchat Plans. While it may sound like a new subscription service, Plans is actually a set of features that encourages hanging out in person.

If ever there was a head versus heart moment in terms of Apple tech, it was in yesterday’s unveiling of the new iPhones.

I already started the morning by wiping the drool from my desk after watching the iPhone Duo sections of yesterday’s keynote, but the true hero of yesterday’s show for me was the iPhone 18 Pro/Pro Max, thanks to the new camera features …

watchOS 27 launches next week, the major new Apple Watch update. Here are Apple’s official release notes detailing what’s new in watchOS 27.

Wow. After Samsung had a seven-year head start on Apple in the foldables market, the company really had to live up to its ethos of waiting until it could do a far better job than everyone else, and boy did it deliver with the iPhone Duo!

It was abundantly clear that Apple had thought through every detail of what a foldable iPhone needed to be, and has taken advantage of every benefit the form factor has to offer …

The new iPhone 18 Pro has much better battery life than its predecessors, but it also has even faster wired charging.

To fast charge the new iPhone, Apple says you need to use its dynamic 40-watt power adapter with 60-watt max output and USB-C cable. With this combination, you will charge at the maximum possible speed, which is about 33% faster than previous pro iPhones could.
