High performing teams need great tech to stay productive and move quickly. But buying tech gear for your business is expensive, with plenty of headaches along the way. Reselling is time consuming, there’s no easy way to upgrade, and trying to manage laptops for remote employees quickly turns into chasing the wind.

Upgraded solves this problem with affordable tech leasing that lets you avoid upfront costs and turn a big expense into simple monthly payments. On top of that, they’ll handle collection, storage, and redeployment of devices when employees leave.

Prices start at $25.52/month for a MacBook Air, and $40.69/month for a MacBook Pro or Studio Display. Find out what it would cost to lease the gear you need and check eligibility in minutes at getupgraded.com/for-business.

Laura takes a test to find out the identity of her life’s soulmate, but what impact will that have on their enduring relationship? The funny and heartfelt movie currently has a solid 77% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Very slowly but surely, Apple has been expanding the list of US states and territories that support IDs in Apple Wallet. After adding Montana last month, North Dakota is now the latest to join.

Earlier today, we covered the skyrocketing success of Neon, an app that pays users in exchange for recording their phone calls. Now, the app has gone offline, following the discovery of an egregious security breach. Here are the details.

While the NFL remains tethered to Microsoft Surface tablets like a bad coach, college football is increasingly embracing iPad. Following a 2024 NCAA rule change that opened the door for sideline video review, a fourth conference has now struck a direct deal with Apple to bring iPad into the game.

Apple’s new iPhone Air is the thinnest iPhone ever. But rumors indicate it won’t hold that title for long. Here’s what’s expected with next year’s even thinner iPhone Fold.
