We don’t know yet whether Apple will call it the iPhone Fold, iPhone Ultra, or something else — but everyone expects the company to announce its first foldable phone later this year. Via Sonny Dickson, these dummy unit photos give us our closest look yet at what we expect the design to be.

The foldable iPhone will feature an approximately 7.8-inch screen when unfolded, giving an effective inner screen area similar to an iPad mini. As shown by these dummy mockup models, the front-facing camera will be positioned in the top-left corner of this screen.

We’re just two days away from iOS 27 being announced WWDC, and rumors are waiting a clear picture of what to expect.

The update will reportedly bring a focus on stability improvements and bug fixes, with some big new Apple Intelligence features sprinkled in. Here’s everything we know so far about new iOS 27 features, the update’s release date, and more.

Over a decade ago, with the launch of the of the Apple TV HD and the first version of tvOS, Apple set off on a rather unsuccessful journey to turn the Apple TV into a gaming platform. The efforts have largely died off, but I think this year could potentially mark the beginning of a renaissance, if Apple wanted to. Let’s outline it.

Apple will unveil iOS 27 on Monday during WWDC’s kickoff. Here are seven new iPhone features rumored to be coming in iOS 27.

There was a time when a stolen iPad or MacBook was a double nightmare for an IT department. You had to worry about the data, but you also knew the physical hardware was gone forever and would have to be replaced. A thief could wipe the device, reinstall the OS, and sell a perfectly good machine on Facebook Marketplace. However, with the maturity of the Apple Business platform and zero-touch enrollment, Apple has mostly destroyed the financial incentive for stealing corporate Macs and iPads.

A new post on Google’s Chromium blog shares the results of the latest Chrome performance benchmarks, including record scores on tests running on an M5 MacBook Pro. Here are the details.

iFixit recently visited the Huaqiangbei district of Shenzhen, China, where they bought Apple Watch Ultra 3, AirPods Max 2, and AirPods Pro 3 knockoffs, took them back to the studio, and immediately disassembled them. Here’s what they found.

Back in April, Google joined OpenAI and Anthropic in offering a dedicated Mac app for its AI chatbot software. Two months later, it’s clear that Gemini for Mac isn’t as good as it could be.

iOS 27 will be unveiled in mere days, and rumors indicate the update will bring new design changes in big and small ways to a variety of iPhone apps. Here’s what’s coming.

Fans are one of those categories where true innovation is kind of hard to find. Ultimately, it’s just there to cool things and circulate air. SwitchBot recently launched its new SwitchBot Standing Circulator Fan, which caught my eye for its built-in battery and Matter (and therefore Apple Home) compatibility. Let’s take a closer look at what this portable fan actually offers and what you need to know before picking one up.

At the start of May, OpenAI released a playful feature inside its Codex desktop app for creating a virtual pet.

This silly little addition solved my biggest challenge with Codex: what should I do with it? My first real task with Codex was putting together a virtual Lil Finder Guy for fun.

A month later, I’m using two Mac apps that Codex built at my direction. Toying around with Codex Pets was the gateway for me to better understand its capabilities.

Apple’s big WWDC keynote is almost here, and rumors indicate iPadOS 27’s unveiling will bring these four new features—plus a lot more.

This fall, Apple is launching a new foldable iPhone that rumors say will be called iPhone Ultra. And one of the more curious features of iPhone Ultra is the use of Touch ID instead of Face ID. Here’s why Apple’s reportedly making the switch.

I’ve recently completed what must be a strong contender for the longest-running saga in selling one home and buying another. I won’t bore you with the details, but the entire process from start to finish was two years almost exactly to the day. I have sadly sacrificed my former spectacular city view but let’s just say it was a good move.

I set an ambitious target of a fortnight for completing all the main home improvement work on my new apartment, and so far seem to be getting pretty close. This includes much of my new smart home setup …
