There, you can now set an app like Google Maps or Waze as your default navigation app on the iPhone by opening the Settings app and tapping ...
If you've been following iPhone rumors over the last few years, you may remember reading reports that Apple flirted with the idea of introducing a super high-end "Ultra" model that would either replace its Pro Max device or sit above it in Apple's smartphone hirearchy. These reports appeared in the pre-launch iPhone 15 and iPhone 16 rumor cycles, but ultimately came to nothing. Now though, the...

The Apple Intelligence features that Apple introduced with iOS 18 are not pushing people to upgrade their iPhones, Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo reiterated today. Apple's recent Siri failures are also going to have an impact on 2025 iPhone shipments, which the market is beginning to realize.
As early as last July, Kuo said expectations that Apple Intelligence could drive iPhone upgrades were...

Apple made a major misstep with the way that it handled the delay of Apple Intelligence features for Siri, Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said today. Announcing the delay through a press statement was a bad decision, and Apple should instead have gone through official channels.
Kuo referenced the well-known "Antennagate" PR crisis when the iPhone 4 launched in 2010, and the way that then Apple...
They made some very high quality tech, but after Eufy there's no way you can 100% trust any of their products. Shame, too, they made some great charging tech.
I just plain didn't have good luck with Eufy stuff, and that was before their privacy issues. Cables and charging banks I'd still buy from Anker, but, yeah, that's about it.
And Anker is like buying things at JCPenney or Kohl's, if you're paying full price, you're a sucker. MR might as well just announce when Anker isn't having a sale.

And even if you could, do you 100% trust Amazon to send you a genuine product and not a lookalike?

Chargers are probably fine, but anything that connects to the internet from them, I'm not ever purchasing.
