There’s been a lot of doubt about the number of iPhone Air orders being placed by customers, given that delivery times have never slipped between launch and today..

A Nikkei report today adds fuel to the fire, suggesting that Apple has slashed its own orders to suppliers to levels normally only seen as a product winds down to the end of production …

The iPhone Air has surprisingly good battery life for users with light-to-medium daily usage habits. But if you are going to be away from a charger for a long time, especially going travelling like on a plane, you’ll probably want to carry some extra juice with you.

Apple has made its custom MagSafe Battery for iPhone Air, that fits precisely beneath the camera plateau on the back of the phone. But another big competitor in this space is Anker, with the Anker Nano Power Bank in a similar size promising 5,000 mAH capacity at half the price of Apple’s offering. But how much extra battery life should you actually expect to get from these power banks, and which is best?

Apple TV has its fair share of strong thrillers, but one of my all-time favorites is easily Hijack, starring Idris Elba. And Apple has just announced the release date for Hijack season 2.

Curious about the new M5 Apple Vision Pro? Chance Miller spent the last week with the upgraded hardware, including the new strap, which you can read about in his review for 9to5Mac.

Last week on Reddit, a user posted an image of their Cosmic Orange iPhone 17 Pro that had apparently shifted to a pinkish, rose gold-like color.

Another example posted to TikTok similarly shows an iPhone 17 Pro in cosmic orange turning pink on the camera plateau and around the edges. Even though there are a few examples of this gaining traction on social media, it’s not remotely close to a widespread phenomenon.

Here’s what’s likely causing the discoloration, and what you can do to prevent it from happening to your iPhone 17 Pro.

I’ve been using Nomad bands for years now, and they’ve become my go to recommendation for anyone looking for a non-Apple, Apple Watch band. Nomad’s lineup has something for every situation, from sporty FKM bands to premium titanium and leather options. Personally, I always gravitate toward two styles: their Sport Band for everyday use and their Titanium Band when I want something more elevated and classy. But Nomad just blew my mind with their newest release, the Stratos Band. This band somehow combines both styles and materials into one hybrid design. Something I did not know I wanted, but now I need! Here’s what you should know.

Apple had a big surprise in store for yesterday’s iOS 26.1 beta 4 release: there’s a new setting that lets users tone down Liquid Glass substantially systemwide. Here’s why I see this as a win overall for Apple and its users.
