One of the most common compliments – or complaints – that I often come across in the phone community is that the “iPhone just works.” It’s plenty fast, fluid, and user-friendly. For those who seek the power-user nirvana, Android is where you can tinker with custom ROMs and revel in the joys of customizability. That, however, doesn’t mean the iPhone can’t pull off its own tricks. On the contrary, it can pull off some seriously impressive multi-step automation wizardry. The best example? Shortcuts. The pre-installed app is pretty impressive, especially with its newfound AI chops. I recently created a “memory”…
A feature that we’ve taken for granted since 2020 – the ability to shoot Portrait Mode photos using Night Mode – has quietly vanished from the latest Pro models. Users started noticing something was wrong and flagged it on Reddit and Apple’s forums. Now, Apple has officially confirmed via a support document that Night Mode Portraits are indeed gone on the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max. What Happened Portrait Mode changed the game when it arrived, but the iPhone 12 Pro really levelled it up. Thanks to the LiDAR scanner, it let us take those creamy, blurred-background shots…
Amazon has officially put a date on its latest high-end e-readers. The refreshed Kindle Scribe (2025) and the flashy new Kindle Scribe Colorsoft will go on sale starting December 10. They actually showed these off back in September, but kept us guessing on the release date until now. Interestingly, Amazon isn’t doing preorders this time. If you want one, you just have to log on next week and buy it directly. This is the third generation of the “write-on” Kindle. The new standard Scribe gets a size bump to an 11-inch screen (up from 10.2), is thinner, and runs on…
As cloud-native adoption soars, companies are turning to managed SRE services to navigate infrastructure complexity Kubernetes has won. According to VMware’s research, over 60% of enterprises now run containerized workloads on the platform, and that number continues to climb. But victory has come with an unexpected cost: operational complexity that even experienced engineering teams struggle to manage effectively. The irony is striking. Organizations adopted Kubernetes to simplify infrastructure management and accelerate deployment cycles. Instead, many find themselves drowning in configuration files, troubleshooting obscure networking issues, and spending significant time resolving platform-related problems — according to the Komodor 2025 Enterprise Kubernetes…
The mythical “iPhone Fold” finally seems to be real. After years of rumors, Apple’s first foldable device has reportedly moved into its final engineering and pre-production phase. According to a new report from the Economic Daily News, the design is basically locked in. Supply chain insiders were quoted saying Apple is done with the experimental phase and is now just tweaking the final details. This is a huge signal that the company is aiming to get this thing on shelves by late 2026. Apparently, Apple has been working on this for over five years, but only recently gave the green…
Is it possible to have too much of a good thing? The Kia EV9 was one of the first EVs from an established automaker truly designed for American tastes. It’s a big, boxy SUV that gives drivers a commanding view of the road, while three rows of seats and quick charging make it perfect for family road trips. But it was destined to become a victim of sibling rivalry. A big part of what makes the EV9 great is its E-GMP architecture, which is shared with other Hyundai Motor Group brands. So it was only a matter of time before…

The Samsung Galaxy S26 is a few months away, but that doesn’t stop the rumor mill from spinning. And, in the day of AI-generated art and imagery, there are some pretty convincing renders of the new phone out there. While some are seemingly based on insider information and others feel largely like guesswork, I took a look at a bunch of them to decide which ones might be the closest to being realistic – if not entirely accurate. It’s also worth noting that, aside from the smaller details, it would be fair to say smartphones are pretty homogenized these days…
