Each time I buy a new Apple product, I’m faced with a moral and ethical dilemma: Do I, or do I not, buy AppleCare? Indeed, AppleCare adds an extra cost on top of an already expensive laptop or smartphone. However, it might save me money down the road should something happen to my device—whether I […]

New devices are getting harder and harder for tech companies to keep under wraps, and after the base Pixel 10 saw new render leaks drop yesterday, followed by Pixel 10 Pro leaks this morning (both via Android Headlines), Google seems to have given up and decided to published a video of the Pixel 10 itself. […]

From the New York Times to Apple, daily puzzles have taken over our smartphones. But when I was younger, I spent my portable gaming time chasing down a different craze: Pokémon. Now, the cuddly pocket monsters are trying to find their place in the trend kicked off by Wordle with Pokémon Friends, a new game […]

Once you start playing one of the New York Times’ quick little word games, it’s easy to end up playing the others as well. (Heck, I originally subscribed to their app for the crosswords.) But maybe you’re currently playing one of the games, and eyeing up the others suspiciously. So let’s break it down: What […]

The modern internet is ruled by algorithms. When you boot up Instagram, for example, what you see in your feed is strategically sorted by the app’s AI based on your past activity to keep you engaged as long as possible.

If you’re the kind of person who always has multiple windows open, however, it can be hard to keep these sorts of program sets together. This is where Glue, a […]

There are a few reasons I love using resale apps, but the main one is that I’m not a very financially responsible person and these platforms—especially my beloved Poshmark—enable me to sell my old stuff for money, then use that money to buy cheaper versions of what I would otherwise be buying new.

A smart TV is meant to provide all of your entertainment needs, all in one device. The thing is, I always opt for a separate streaming box, even though my TV is capable of most, if not all, of my streaming needs. There are a few reasons for this: My Apple TV is far more […]

I love reselling my stuff on Poshmark almost as much as I love shopping on the marketplace—I’ve been buying there for a decade, and using it to offload my old stuff for about two years now. But just because I’ve been at it a while doesn’t mean I know everything there is to know. I […]

The excitement over the recent Coldplay kiss-cam capture of Astronomer CEO Andy Byron just will not die. The newest wrinkle: According to posts going viral on X, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and probably Friendster, The Simpsons predicted this exact event back in 2015.

Apple loves its first-party apps and devices. iPhone, Mac, Apple TV, Apple News, Apple Music—you can live a robust, tech-y life without ever leaving Apple’s ecosystem. But there didn’t used to be a way to bundle all these services together, and if you wanted to buy every Apple device and subscribe to every Apple product, […]
