It's official. Apple has just announced the date for this year's WWDC (Worldwide Developer Conference), kicking off the event with a big keynote on June 9th. The event will run through June 13th at Apple Park.

Announced within the space of a month, the Google Pixel 9a and iPhone 16e are premium mid-range phones that come in under the $600 mark. If you're in the market for a high-quality but somewhat affordable device, these will likely be at the top of your list. So how do they compare?

Pebble is back with a pair of new smartwatches—the $150 Core 2 Duo and $225 Core Time 2. Unfortunately, iPhone owners who buy these smartwatches will miss out on a lot of important functionality.

Buying a used phone can save you money, but it also comes with its own set of risks and potential issues. You could end up with a stolen device, a phone with no warranty, or one that has been repaired multiple times. So, you should think carefully before purchasing a pre-owned device.

New iPhones updates are automatically enabling AI-powered Apple Intelligence functionality, even for people who already switched it off. It’s not clear if this is a bug or intended behavior, but either way, it’s getting to be annoying.

Rumors suggest that Apple will announce a major iOS, iPadOS, and macOS software design overhaul at WWDC 2025. If true, this will be the biggest iOS UI revamp since 2013, and it will replace a lot of the iPhone-like design elements that invaded macOS in 2020.

While silly Monty Python songs about processed meat may be fun, unwanted marketing calls and emails are not. I'm sick of getting calls from unrecognized numbers, only for them to turn out to be telling me that I've been in an accident that wasn't my fault. I thought there may be a way the Shortcuts app could help.

Apple's "more personalized" version of Siri is delayed until 2026. The enhanced voice assistant, which leverages AI for greater contextual awareness, was first shown at WWDC 2024 and originally scheduled for a 2025 launch.
