My fiancé got me an Apple Watch for Christmas, and I’ll admit, I absolutely adore it. I really love tracking my workouts on it, and I love that I can be hands free but still keep my email and phone with me at all times. This especially comes in handy when I’m trying to squeeze in riding […]
I’m not, historically speaking, one of the early adopters of the latest generation of iPhones to arrive. I usually lag behind, read reviews, and check out their latest from one of my friends that just had to have one as soon as it came out. I’m of the opinion that a lot of the iPhones […]
Think the iPhone X was luxurious on its own? You won’t when you see what happens to it when luxury smartphone customization design houses get hold of them! The world is rife with companies adding all manner of precious metals and gems to smartphones, and they seem to have really found their muse with the […]
Ever since the iPod took the world by storm, Apple has been the pop culture icon of the tech world. And, when you have that kind of success, you attract some followers. Apple accessories have become one of the strangest cottage industries ever, prompting tons of companies big and small to make any sort of […]
Got an iPhone? You might have noticed a big download and a few changes today — Apple released the iOS 11.3 update, the latest to last year’s iOS 11 release, and while we’re all crossing our fingers for no unintended consequences, there are some pretty cool new features to go over. It’s a minor update, but […]
The people behind the world’s emoji have done a pretty good job in recent years of being more inclusive, adding new skin tones, more female emoji, and even more hair colors! But, the Unicode Consortium, the group in charge of creating emoji (well, they do other things, but this is their most important job) could […]

The honest answer is no one knows — Apple hasn’t and probably won’t specify how many units of the iPhone X they’ve actually sold. But, reports have been flying that the number has been disappointing. Nikkei reported over the weekend that Apple has cut production targets from 40 million to 20 million, meaning Apple now thinks it will […]
Since becoming a blogger for the BBC when she was 11 and surviving an assassination attempt at 15, Pakistani activist Malala Yousafzai has become one of the world’s most prominent champions of education for girls in developing countries. The Malala Fund has been working toward that mission since 2013, and it’s about to step up […]

Flashpoint might get two directors Variety is reporting that the upcoming DC movie Flashpoint could get two directors, the duo of John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein.

The holidays is a time that should be of, we are told, peace on Earth and goodwill toward men. Well first that’s gendered, and second, a whole lot of tech companies are making it clear that there will be neither peace nor goodwill in the courtrooms and boardrooms of the world this year. There are […]
Did you pass on the iPhone 8 so you can cash out on that shiny, bezel-less iPhone X? It’s go time this Friday, and according to some reports, it’s not going to be easy to get one. In other words, if you’re still thinking about where and how to get one on Friday, you’re already […]
The Good: Balanced sound, excellent battery life, secure fit, easy pairing with Apple devices The Bad: Can become uncomfortable after more than an hour, sound quality isn’t good enough to justify $350 on its own Who they’re for: The fashionable, Apple fans looking for premium sound quality, gym-goers who prefer over-ear headphones to in-ears The […]
The iPhone X is upon us, and as was heavily rumored, it’s not cheap. But, the phone being $1,000 (at least!) isn’t even the most pressing reason to go get a case for it! Now that Apple is adding wireless charging, they’re using glass on both the front and back of the iPhone. As the […]
To their credit, Apple often enough tends to wait to jump on trends until they’ve picked up enough steam. That seems to be the case with 4K HDR — the technology was always convincing, but for a while, there simply wasn’t enough 4K HDR content to make the new hardware worth it to the mainstream consumer. […]
The big news from Apple’s event yesterday was no doubt the announcement of the high-end iPhone X alongside the iPhone 8, but Apple had a bit to say about the Apple Watch, too. Funny enough, right alongside the most expensive, advanced iPhone ever was a smartwatch that doesn’t need it — the new Apple Watch Series […]
After all the rumors and leaks, Apple has finally revealed their high-end 10th anniversary iPhone — and there weren’t many surprises. The name convention-breaking iPhone X (pronounced iPhone Ten) as promised introduces an edge-to-edge OLED display, ditching the home button and Touch ID in favor of facial recognition. There are plenty of other goodies Apple has […]
It’s been a long time coming, but Beats and Apple are finally ready to refresh the flagship over-ear Studio headphones. The Studio headphones were conspicuously absent during last year’s iPhone reveal, when the Solo on-ears and Powerbeats in-ears were upgraded with Apple’s new W1 chip. But they’re making an appearance now, just one week before […]
Usually, lost and found trackers are pretty straightforward — you put a tracker on your keychain, you lose your keys, and you use your phone to make the tracker ring out. Pixie likes to have a little more fun. Since the beginning of this year, they’ve been using augmented reality to help find lost items using […]
