The situation with mobile browsers on Apple’s platforms is not exactly rewarding for users. Safari gets the job done, but for every other browser landing on the iPhone or iPad, they are forced to use Apple’s WebKit engine. Simply put, most browsers are simply wrappers built atop the same foundation on iOS and iPadOS As a result, you won’t find Safari alternatives that can really stand out. On the desktop side for Mac, there’s no such rule. As a result, you can find terrific options such as Perplexity Comet, Dia, and ChatGPT Atlas, aside from the big names such as…

After Netflix won the bidding war for Warner Bros.’ film and streaming business in December 2025, the company revealed its plans for releasing films in theaters. In a recent New York Times interview, Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos explained that, after Netflix acquires Warner Bros., he “will run that business largely like it is today, with 45-day windows.” In April 2025, Sarandos previously stated that he loved theaters but thought that theatrical moviegoing is an “outmoded idea, for most people, not for everybody.” As a result, Netflix’s purchase of Warner Bros. ignited backlash and fears over the film industry’s future.

On today’s episode of You Asked: What even is local dimming? Who’s gonna have the Mini LED RGB TV to beat? And why is everyone so obsessed with brighter TVs? Why is everyone obsessed with brighter TVs? @weirdNamja asks: Why is everyone obsessed with getting the brightest picture they can get. Is burning out your retina the new trend or what? We get this one every so often, but it warrants a quick answer. It’s not that everyone’s obsessed with a blindingly bright TV that’s maxed out from edge to edge. Rather, a bright TV means you have a better…
In my recent OnePlus 15R review, I claimed it had the best battery life I’d ever experienced in a smartphone. That felt, from a month of use, to be the case – now I’ve got the figures to back it up. The OnePlus 15R’s 7,400mAh battery is larger than most of the best Android phones, and day after day during testing I was constantly wowed by how much charge was left in the tank when I went to bed. I fell out of the habit of regularly charging my mobile – who knows how I’ll cope when I go back…

If you thought 2026 was going to be the year PC building finally got easy again, AMD has some bad news. The company is heading into the new year facing a perfect storm of supply chain headaches and skyrocketing prices. In a candid chat with Gizmodo during CES, AMD’s Ryzen lead David McAfee laid out the situation, and honestly, it sounds like they are trying to steer a ship through a hurricane without losing any cargo. The hardware they showed off at CES tells the story better than any press release could. They revealed the new Ryzen 7 9850X3D and…
EVs aren’t the only cars that plug in. Plug-in hybrids can theoretically serve as stepping stones to all-electric vehicles, providing enough electric range for short trips while still offering the flexibility of a gasoline engine. For those who can’t charge at home, or just don’t want to deal with the uncertainty of public charging infrastructure on road trips, they seem like a decent option. But the news cycle just delivered two reminders of the limits of plug-in hybrids. Last week, Stellantis abruptly confirmed that it would discontinue three popular plug-in hybrid models. And at the Automotive Press Association conference in…
MediaTek just dropped two new chipsets, and it feels like they are finally executing on a promise they made a while ago: bringing flagship-level power to phones that don’t necessarily cost a thousand dollars. The new Dimensity 9500s and Dimensity 8500 aren’t just incremental updates; they seem to be a deliberate attempt to close the gap between “good enough” and “top tier.” The Dimensity 9500s is clearly the headline act here. It’s built on that cutting-edge 3nm process, which is a big deal for efficiency. What is interesting is the architecture—they are using an “All Big Core” design, meaning they…
It is fascinating to watch how Apple operates when the rest of the tech world is tapping the brakes. While most smartphone manufacturers are bracing for a tough year in 2026, Apple seems to be preparing for yet another victory lap. A fresh investor note from analyst Jeff Pu gives us a rare peek behind the curtain at Cupertino’s strategy, and if his predictions hold water, the iPhone 18 era is going to be about much more than just a new camera bump or a slightly faster chip. What stands out immediately is the contrast in market confidence. Pu is…
