When mobile gamers rely solely on touchscreens, they face numerous challenges. Swipes miss their target at the worst possible times, fingers slip during frantic sequences, and sophisticated games require more dexterity than a flat glass surface can provide. The Razer Kishi V3, priced at $74.99 after clipping the on-page coupon (was $100), is a basic solution that clamps onto your phone and provides tactile controls designed for serious play.
People who passed on last year’s Pro model now face a stronger case for jumping in when the iPhone 18 Pro arrives in September. Reports from the past few days paint a clear picture of steady improvements across the board rather than flashy overhauls, and every change seems aimed at solving small daily frustrations that add up over time.
Cars race down a nearly vacant stretch of highway. Two drivers grasp their phones tightly as a FaceTime video call continues between them. The speedometer reads 70 mph, but there are no cell bars in sight, nor do any familiar Wi-Fi networks appear. HaLow technology within each vehicle communicates with a handful of little boxes mounted on the dashboards. These units form a private wireless web that connects the vehicles, with each box essentially chatting to the one next to it, effortlessly passing data so the link never fails.
Unbox Therapy’s Lewis Hilsenteger tore open an unassuming box shipped from China, and inside was a dummy unit of Apple’s purported foldable iPhone Ultra. In its opened form, it becomes a large tablet-like rectangular device, but when folded in half, it becomes like a passport that can fit into one’s back pocket. Its dimensions are 117mm high, 84mm wide, 11mm thin on its narrowest side, and 16.5mm where the camera sticks out.
Revenue soared to 111.2 billion dollars in Apple’s March quarter, up 17 percent from the same period last year and significantly beyond analyst expectations. Almost 57 billion of that came directly from iPhone sales, a new record high for the March period, as it appears that a large number of people went out and purchased the latest models at once.

Dummy units of the iPhone 18 Pro series and a super-sleek new foldable Ultra model have leaked, giving people a good idea of what Apple has in store for the September debut. Case makers received these prototypes based on the final CAD files, thus they are quite similar to the production hardware in terms of shapes, sizes, layout, and so on. Owners of current phones will notice some little but important changes rather than a complete redesign, with one exception that stands out.
As our view of Earth began to fade, NASA astronaut Reid Wiseman went for his phone as if it were second nature. Just hours previously, the Artemis II crew had taken four of them on a daring ride around the moon in the dependable Orion spacecraft. The commander, Wiseman, found a chance to film the entire scene through a narrow glass in the docking hatch. He took out his beloved iPhone 17 Pro Max, pressed the record button, and let it roll for a while.

According to the most recent leaks, the iPhone Air 2 will include a second rear camera, providing users with the versatility they need, something the first version lacked. According to leaks, this new model will have a 48 megapixel main sensor and a 48 megapixel ultrawide lens, all tucked neatly into a wide pill-shaped module that spans the majority of the phone’s upper back area, and because it lacks a telephoto lens, the phone retains its slim profile.

Leaks continue to pour out, revealing interesting detailed about what we can really expect from the iPhone 18 Pro versions launching in September, and it appears like Dark Cherry will be the star of the show for both the Pro and Pro Max. This deep, rich wine-red color is a stark contrast to the brighter colors that have been popular in recent years, but it still looks fresh and attracts attention.
Derek Muller from Veritasium collaborated with Marques Brownlee on a wild experiment. They wanted to try draining money from a fully locked iPhone with nothing but a tap and some flashy, yet relatively clever, equipment. Marques plugged his phone into a little reader that was connected to a laptop. The screen stayed dark and locked the entire time, showing no signs of life. Then, a few seconds later, the first charge arrived for $5. They kept going, increasing the amount until they had siphoned off a total of $10,000.
