Apple Notes is one of my go-to note-taking apps. It’s free, it comes preinstalled on every Apple device I own, and it already packs a solid set of features like shared notes, notes locking, the ability to attach different file types, and notes linking, among many others. For most people, that’s plenty to get by. That said, there are a handful of features I keep hoping Apple will add to Notes someday. So, I keep checking the new features with every single iOS and macOS update, and I keep coming up empty. Until Apple decides to catch up, I found…

Samsung has been rumored to be working on a major camera redesign for the Galaxy S27 Ultra, and we may finally have an idea of where it is headed. Prominent leaker Ice Universe has shared a sketch that appears to show the basic rear layout of Samsung’s next Ultra flagship, reportedly based on CAD measurements. I have to admit, this is not quite what I had pictured. Previous reports pointed to Samsung moving toward a horizontal camera layout, which immediately made me think of the Galaxy S10 and its clean visor-style camera strip. Instead, the sketch suggests something much closer…

Attaching photos to a ChatGPT conversation on an iPhone has always been easy enough, but the latest update removes a few more taps from the process. A new shortcut now lets users jump straight to their most recent images, making it quicker to add a photo when asking ChatGPT to identify, explain, analyze, or simply react to something in front of them. According to an X post by OpenAI’s Consumer Product Lead, Adam Fry, OpenAI has added the feature to the iPhone version of ChatGPT. The shortcut is part of a broader set of improvements arriving in the app, although…

Sony is expected to introduce its next Xperia phone in just a couple of days, but a new leak may have already revealed what the upcoming Xperia 10 VIII will look like. An image shared by Android Headlines shows what is claimed to be the Xperia 10 VIII ahead of Sony’s August 25 event in Japan. Sony has only confirmed that a new “Xperia Product” is coming, though recent leaks have consistently pointed toward the Xperia 10 VIII. If the image is accurate, Sony does not appear to be changing much on the outside this year. The Xperia 10 VII…

The idea of AirPods with cameras has already made some people uneasy, even though Apple has not announced such a product yet.

Those concerns may become harder to dismiss after a separate discovery reported by MacRumors offered a more detailed look at how Apple’s camera-equipped AirPods could potentially work. According to MacRumors, forum member mactracker uncovered a hidden macOS framework called “AccessorySensorManager,” which appears to contain references to sensors…

AMD’s next-generation Ryzen AI 500 “Medusa Point” APUs are getting another step closer to reality, and this time Linux is doing the leaking. As first noted by Phoronix, AMD has published the firmware needed for its upcoming RDNA 4m integrated graphics, giving us another indication that the Zen 6-based mobile chips are nearing their debut.

It sits in an unusual position between the existing RDNA 3.5 architecture and full-blown RDNA 4. AMD’s desktop RDNA 4 GPUs use the newer GFX…

Valve has released Proton 11.0-2, and while the version number looks about as exciting as a BIOS update, SteamOS and Linux gamers have plenty of reasons to care. The latest stable Proton release fixes dozens of compatibility issues across Windows games, including Helldivers 2, Marvel Rivals, Arc Raiders and Forza Horizon 4, 5 and 6. A whole lot of games just got less broken Several fairly big games get particularly useful fixes. Helldivers 2 should launch again after a recent game update broke compatibility, while Marvel Rivals gets a fix for crashes and Arc Raiders is playable again for some…
