My iPhone is so full of important photos, documents, and private information that I can’t imagine having it stolen. Nevertheless, I’ve backed up and locked my data and know what to do if it happens. Activation Lock would prevent anyone from using the phone, and I’ll hopefully be able to remotely wipe it while thieves
Apple announced its newest lineup of smartphones during the 2024 iPhone 16 launch event earlier this week. Four new models took center stage: The iPhone 16, the larger iPhone 16 Plus, the high-end iPhone 16 Pro and its big sibling the iPhone 16 Pro Max. Last year, the most notable design change came with the
I watched the Apple iPhone 16 event this week and knew within 15 minutes of the iPhone 16 Pro Max segment that I'd be upgrading. My phone is the one piece of tech I never go anywhere without; as a full-time digital nomad, I work remotely from around the world, so I rely on a

Remember how much you loved (or hated) Flappy Bird? The side-scrolling iPhone game, which spawned many, many imitators, was a sensation for its simple, but tough gameplay. And then it went away, pulled by its creator Dong Nguyen in 2014. At the time, he promised to bring back a better version, but that never materialized.
Apple’s recent iPhone event brought some nifty ideas, from the camera button to a reinvention of Google Lens and beyond. The company also announced that it's bringing simple multitrack recording to Voice Memos. This was particularly exciting for me since, well, I use Voice Memos a lot. I have nearly 500 of these little recordings
A few days before the big iPhone 16 event, Huawei announced a press event for the same day as Apple. Huawei teased a mysterious device that looked like a triple-foldable phone. It happened after a different Chinese vendor, Tecno, unveiled a tri-fold concept. Huawei’s event took place just a few hours after the big Apple
It's the day after Apple launched the iPhone 16, and though I published my hands-on with the iPhone 16 Pro right after the event, I didn't have a lot of time to spare for the base models until today. With that extra time, I've been able to learn more about the differences between the standard
