The European Commission has concluded an antitrust investigation into Corning’s glass supply deals. And for once, Apple just watched from the sidelines.

Early last year, Kuxiu released its X33 Pro Max iPad stand. It was the first stand to incorporate pin connectors into a magnetic stand to be able to charge your iPad. It was a fantastic idea. As a stand, it’s built very well, is high quality, does everything you need a stand to do, and gets the job done, but the fact that it also instantly charges the iPad was a game-changer for my setups. But now, they’ve brought the same tech but into your car with a mountable, magnetically charging iPad stand. Here is what you need to know.

One of the biggest upgrades in Apple’s 2025 fall releases for IT administrators is automating migrations between device management services. Before this update, switching platforms meant a lot of manual work, scripting, edge cases, and user disruption. With iOS 26 and macOS 26, Apple now supports direct migrations without wiping devices or losing app data. For IT teams that work with Apple, this is a huge win.

We saw recently that many Gen Z people have a much more relaxed attitude to location privacy than the rest of us, happily sharing their location 24/7 with entire groups of friends.

But for those of us who prefer a more restrained approach to sharing our location, I’d like to see one basic change, and a couple of intelligent features added to the Find My app …

In a new note to investors, HSBC says that the slow rollout of the AI features Apple introduced at WWDC 2024 has so far “failed to trigger significant improvement in user experience,” and that unless Apple gets back on track, users could end up pushing off their next iPhone upgrade. Here are the details.

Apple has a big fall launch season up ahead, with 15+ new products coming. But per various reports and rumors, there are three particular products launching that we’ve been waiting a long time for.

If you’ve ever tried to get in-app support on WhatsApp, you know the process used to start with filling out a form, possibly attaching a few files, and waiting for a support rep to eventually get in touch.

Now, that form is on its way out, and the screening process is, you guessed it, becoming AI-based. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing.

If you’re buying a HomeKit door lock in 2025 and it doesn’t support home key, keep moving. The tap to unlock experience with iPhone or Apple Watch is the feature that makes smart locks feel like a major upgrade over a physical key or even unlocking via the Home app. It’s fast, reliable, and once you get used to it, there’s no going back. The ThorBolt X1 checks all the boxes for a great HomeKit lock and brings a few nice surprises for under $150k.

This fall, an ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air will join Apple’s product lineup. But unsurprisingly, that radically thin design will likely come with some battery compromises. Here’s what the latest leak says about iPhone 17 Air battery capacity.

If you’re at all interested in Apple’s services, Apple One has long been a great option for bundling them together and saving a little money. And over time, new features have continually been added to Apple’s various services. Here are the most recent ways Apple One has gotten better, and a preview of what’s coming next in iOS 26.

watchOS 26 is coming this fall, with new features like the Notes app, watch face ‘hints,’ Control Center upgrades, and more. But unlike most watchOS releases, there are several tentpole features that will only be available on very recent Apple Watch models.

This fall, Apple will launch a brand new flagship iPhone model: the iPhone 17 Air. Its ultra-thin, futuristic design will be the main selling point, but the iPhone 17 Air is also expected to come with a brand new 6.6-inch screen size. Here’s what rumors say about the display.

Netflix reported its quarterly earnings yesterday, and alongside revealing viewership data from the first half of 2025, Co-CEO Ted Sarandos name-dropped a bunch of the streamer’s biggest TV shows and movies that are coming throughout the rest of 2025 and into 2026.

Apple has filed a lawsuit in the Northern District of California, accusing Jon Prosser of misappropriating trade secrets and violating the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. Here are the full details.

Just days after hiring Ruoming Pang, who had led Apple’s foundation model efforts, Meta is reuniting him with two former colleagues from Cupertino.

A years-old lawsuit accusing Apple of burning through users’ mobile data won’t be moving forward as a class action, but it might still be pursued individually. Here’s what happened.

At WWDC25 this year, Apple announced a pair of new features to vastly improve the phone calling experience for iPhone users. Hold Assist does exactly what it says on the tin, and manages calls for you while you’re placed on hold – getting rid of the need to listen to dreaded hold music.

The other feature, Call Screening, has much larger implications, and dealing with spam phone calls may become an issue of the past.

After two years under Instagram head Adam Mosseri, Meta is officially handing off Threads to a new leader. Here’s what the change could mean for the app’s future.

In a quick live stream today, OpenAI announced ChatGPT agent, which improves on its promising, but limited Operator feature announced a few months ago. Here’s how it works
