iPhone 18 Pro vs Pixel 11 Pro: How Apple and Google's flagships stack up
More AI, better cameras and few reasons to switch ecosystems. The iPhone 18 Pro and Pixel 11 Pro are the latest examples of a familiar story: Apple and Google refining, rather than reinventing, mature flagship smartphones. Both are expensive, powerful phones with top-notch screens, three rear cameras and (like it or not) an ever-growing list of AI features. They both come in two sizes and have similar price tags. There are still plenty of…

Tim Cook's cameo in the iPhone Duo launch was pure television drama
After all the seemingly obvious reports that Tim Cook would not be in the new iPhone launch video, there he was. He was there for a purpose, and he was there because yet again, only Apple could do this. That's because while there must be countless CEOs who insist on being the star of their corporate videos, there aren't many with the public profile of Tim Cook. You could well argue that his making…

iPhone Duo Can Do Split View, But Not Like Your iPad
Apple's iPhone Duo is the first iPhone that can run two apps side by side, but anyone expecting the sort of freedom that Split View offers on iPad might want to temper their expectations. Apple's iPhone Duo marketing materials talk up app pairs and side-by-side windows, but it doesn't mention anything about resizing them. There's a reason for that. If you put two apps side by side on the iPhone Duo's 7.6-inch foldable display,…

Where should Apple go after the iPhone Duo? Bring on smaller and larger foldables
Yes, it really just needs to copy Samsung, ASUS and others. No matter how you feel about the iPhone Duo and its exorbitant $1,999 price, its existence proves that Apple has finally figured out how to make a foldable. And on a broader level, it also shows that Apple isn't too proud to follow in the footsteps of Samsung and other Android phone makers. If that's the case, I'm hoping Apple also isn't afraid…

L’iPhone 18 Pro Max aura bien le nouveau modem C2 d’Apple, mais pas dans certains pays
Depuis la keynote de ce mercredi 9 septembre, une info tournait sur les forums. Sur la fiche technique américaine, le fameux modem C2 apparaissait bien au menu de l’iPhone 18 Pro, mais pas de l’iPhone 18 Pro Max, qui semblait donc rester chez Qualcomm. Selon nos confrères de Numerama, c’est une fausse alerte, car le C2 n’est pas réservé au petit modèle. Le C2 est le troisième modem cellulaire conçu par Apple, la puce…
