If you’re an IT admin, you’ve got a lot on your plate. Managing the entire user lifecycle can feel like a complex laundry list of manual tasks: switching between systems, provisioning access, configuring and retrieving laptops, resetting passwords, and enforcing security policies. 

After last month’s Apple Card offers ended a few days ago, the company is now testing two new offers for cardholders to earn $200 in Daily Cash, both for new and existing customers.

Earlier this summer, reports started to emerge that Apple is testing a new “rigid plastic” body for the next generation Apple Watch SE. While this would undoubtedly reduce costs, it begs the question – will this tradeoff be worth it for customers?

The iPhone 16 Pro lineup will bring new features such as larger displays, a dedicated Capture button, and more. We’re also expecting multiple noticeable improvements to the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max camera hardware. Here are seven things to look forward to next week…

Apple is ramping up its efforts to promote the Mac as a powerful platform for artificial intelligence. In the Apple Store app and various places around the web, Apple is promoting that the Mac is the “best AI PC.” Notably, the company is also taking direct aim at Microsoft’s Copilot+ PCs in this advertising.

It’s almost time for Apple’s September 9 event, where the company will debut its newest iPhones and a whole lot more. The iPhone 16 lineup will come with four models: iPhone 16, 16 Plus, 16 Pro, and 16 Pro Max. You can find new features for the 16 Pro models here. But below are all the details for the base iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus models. Here’s what’s coming next week for Apple’s newest iPhones.

HomeKit has become a powerful platform, with Apple consistently enhancing its features while staying true to its privacy-first approach. They’ve even contributed to the Matter standard, expanding what the Home app can do. But there’s a big problem we need to address: HomeKit Secure Video. Vendors are largely ignoring it, and while this isn’t entirely Apple’s fault, it’s a problem they need to solve.

As Apple’s next event draws closer, we learn more about the products the company will announce on Monday. Following a report earlier today about Apple Watch Series 10 featuring sleep apnea detection, 9to5Mac has now learned more details about the next generation Apple Watch.

The iPhone 15 Pro had (has?) a known overheating issue. Apple reportedly solved the problem shortly after launch via a software update. But I own and use the iPhone 15 Pro, and overheating continues to be a problem for me. Maybe it’s now a more “normal” amount of heat, but it’s still an issue I experience to this day. Fortunately, rumors indicate Apple may have a fix on the way with the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro.

The iPhone 16 is coming in just a few days. Next week, Apple will hold a special event to unveil its flagship iPhone updates, new Apple Watch hardware, and more. Here’s a roundup of everything to expect at the “It’s Glowtime” special event on September 9.

It’s been a while since Apple last updated the iPad mini, and a recent report suggested that the next generation is indeed coming soon. However, contrary to what some may have thought, it seems that Apple won’t be announcing new iPads next week alongside the new iPhones.

Our friends at GRID are running a blockbuster sale to celebrate their fourth anniversary. From now until September 12, you can save hundreds of dollars on GRID’s most popular deconstructed wall art frames. My personal favorite is the GRID 1, which you can get for $299 (down from $699).

Apple’s years-long effort to replace Qualcomm’s 5G modems with its own chips is nearing an end. Previously, Ming-Chi Kuo has indicated Apple’s first in-house 5G modems will debut in select 2025 iPhones. Today, he shares his expectation for Apple’s expansion plans in the years ahead.

New Apple Watch models will be announced at Monday’s iPhone 16 event. The Apple Watch Series 10 will come in two sizes that are bigger than ever, with the larger model matching the Ultra’s screen size. As a result, I think the Apple Watch Ultra 3 will be a harder sell than ever before. However, there are still plenty of reasons to choose the new Ultra model. Here are three advantages the Apple Watch Ultra 3 will have over the Series 10.

The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are expected to have larger screens than their predecessors. One way Apple will accomplish this feat without as big of an increase to the overall form factor is with smaller bezels. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman now reports that we can specifically expect iPhone 16 Pro bezels to be around 33% smaller (or one-third smaller) than the iPhone 15 Pro.

In just a few days, Apple’s iPhone 16 Pro will debut with a host of new features. A larger display, camera upgrades, a new Capture button, and an Apple Intelligence-optimized A18 Pro chip will make it a strong buy. But according to a new report, all of those changes are likely bringing a price hike. However, depending on your preferred storage tier, the 16 Pro’s price may not impact you at all.

Satechi is out with several new releases today at IFA Berlin. Headlining its new products is the Vegan-Leather Passport Cover with Find My. The cover/wallet features Apple’s official item tracking, a MagSafe/Qi2-rechargeable battery, RFID protection, and more.

We’re just a few days away from Apple’s special event, when the company is expected to announce the new iPhone 16 models. There are a lot of rumors about the new phones out there, but now 9to5Mac has heard more details about what changes with the new hardware. When it comes to cameras, users can expect improvements such as 4K 120fps video and more.

As part of its September ‘Glowtime’ event taking place on Monday, Apple will update all of its Apple Watch models, including the low-end Apple Watch SE, the mainstream Apple Watch Series 10 and the high-end Apple Watch Ultra 3.

While much attention will be on the Series 10’s redesigned thinner chassis and larger display, Bloomberg reports the other major new feature for the watches will be sleep apnea detection.
