The touchscreen MacBook Pro is here, and it brings back a fan-favorite logo

28 October 2026 at 13:44

Apple is bringing two new technologies for the first time ever in Mac’s history. The brand has unveiled the MacBook Pro with an OLED panel and touchscreen support. These have been around on Windows machines for years, and while Apple is late to the party, it introduces interface changes optimized for touch input and designed to deliver a more immersive viewing experience. That potentially blurs the line between MacBook and iPad experiences.

Apple's new iMac M6 is built for faster on-device intelligence

27 October 2026 at 10:37

Following the release of the OLED iPad Mini yesterday, Apple has now announced updated MacBook Pro and iMac models. The brand’s all-in-one desktop is arriving almost two years after the M4 model that debuted back in 2024. In between, the M5 generation never made it to the iMac, so the latest jump is bigger than the version number suggests.

The new iPad Mini is a lot like the iPhone Duo, minus the hefty price tag

26 October 2026 at 10:51

As Apple gears up for its Pro and Tell event tomorrow, the brand has launched the iPad Mini. It’s the biggest overhaul the tablet has received, arriving two years after the previous model debuted in 2024. The timing is interestingβ€”if you’ve been eyeing the new iPhone Duo that can be used as a slab phone and a tablet, the iPad Mini offers another way to get a larger display in a thinner profile without spending nearly as much.

I can't recommend the Nvidia Shield TV Pro, even after an Apple TV 4K price hike

24 October 2026 at 12:45

I drew flak for saying the Apple TV 4K fills the shoes of Nvidia's Shield TV, and not without some merit. If you love Android or simply prefer the Shield's flexibility, no amount of apps or hardware brawn will make you switch. It's a good media streaming deviceβ€”its age and the modern app landscape just work against it.

24 October 2026 at 11:00

Wired earpods have become quite trendy right now. The shift back to this somewhat retro technology is fueled by celebrities being spotted ditching wireless AirPods for wired earphones. They've become pretty fashionable, with stars like Harry Styles, Zendaya, and Bella Hadid turning them into cool accessories that the masses want to copy.

Apple made a working virtual iPod to mark the player's 25th anniversary

23 October 2026 at 12:18

Apple announced the iPod 25 years ago on October 23, 2001, and it's doing something unique to mark the anniversary: a chance to try the original MP3 player. The company has a 404 "page not found" error website on Apple Music that contains a working virtual iPod.

I gave Home Assistant a physical color wheel, and now I flip through albums like it's 2008

22 October 2026 at 20:00

I loved my first Walkman to the point where I used it until it fell apart, but my favorite music player was still my iPod. There was nothing quite like flipping through the albums in the Cover Flow view by spinning my thumb around the click wheel. When I found an old remote that had its own wheel-style input, I wondered if I could bring those days back.
