Apple released its iPhone 15 lineup last year, and despite the familiar look, the new devices pack some nice improvements under the hood. While the Pro models come with a new chipset, the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus come with a mix of new features (including the same A16 Bionic chip inside the iPhone 14 Pro) and some compromises.

At some point, the tactile feel of a physical keyboard on a mobile keyboard got lost in history. And while you can always pair a travel keyboard with your phone over Bluetooth, there's something about having the keys ready and waiting underneath your phone screen that makes them truly special. Now, the Clicks Technology company is ready to restart a renaissance with its new product, a physical keyboard for the iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max.

5 reasons I'm upgrading to an iPhone 15 Pro Max from an iPhone 14 Pro

I had been planning to wait for the iPhone 16 Pro, but these reasons have changed my mind.

Apple just revealed its new iPhone 15 Pro, but is it really that big of an upgrade over last year's iPhone 14 Pro? Let's find out.

Apple revealed the new iPhone 15 Pro at its annual fall event on September 12, replacing the iPhone 14 Pro as the company's best 6.1-inch smartphone. Though there are a few flashy upgrades that come with the newer model, like a USB-C port and a customizable Action button. However, you'll also find a lot of similarities between the iPhone 15 Pro and the iPhone 14 Pro, like identical displays and rear camera systems.

The Nothing Phone 2 has a cool design and new performance gains, but is it enough to beat one of Apple's top phones?

It's hard to put any Android phone up against Apple's iPhone 14 Pro, partly because many iOS users value different features than Android ones. However, in recent years, even some of the most loyal iPhone fans have become frustrated with various product line upgrades. As such, iPhone users looking for something new might turn to Nothing Phone 2, which seeks to bring flavor to a smartphone category that can seem stale at times. With its flagship chip and other improvements, the second version of the Nothing Phone gets closer to competing with top-of-the-line smartphones. But are the upgrades enough to beat one of Apple's best smartphones in 2023?

We're only a few hours away from the inaugural keynote of Apple's annual developer's conference, called WWDC. The company uses the show to share updates on the next versions of its operating systems and turns the spotlights to some key hardware announcements. Last year's keynote, for instance, was packed with a ton of announcements, and I expect nothing less from what is touted to be Apple's "biggest and most exciting" WWDC yet.

Seeing horizontal lines on your iPhone 14 Pro's display? A fix is on the way

The issue is reportedly related to software, not hardware

Apple has finally acknowledged a bug that causes flashing horizontal lines to appear on iPhone 14 Pro displays when its display is turned on. The company has confirmed that it doesn't stem from a hardware defect, and it's working on a software update to address the bug.

Is the iPhone 14 Pro's Always-On display a battery hog? Here's what tests reveal

Compared to many Android phones, the iPhone 14 Pro offers a richer Always-On display. How much battery do these added elements drain, though?

4
By 

With the launch of the iPhone 14 Pro, Apple adopted the Always-On display (AOD) feature for the first time on an iPhone. Prior to this release, AOD was limited to newer Apple Watch models. In typical Apple fashion, the feature arrived late but not without an innovative spin. You see, most Android phone manufacturers have been offering a basic AOD that usually shows the time, date, weather, notifications, and other similarly-relevant information. The iPhone maker went ahead and integrated the wallpaper into the AOD as well. Expectedly, users have expressed mixed feelings about this execution, with some disabling it, while others embrace it. Though, one common enigma across both groups has been the battery life. Does the constantly-visible wallpaper drain a lot of juice? A fresh experiment clears up this concern once and for all.

Apple apparently canceled a next-gen GPU for the A16 Bionic thanks to engineering problems

Apple apparently canceled a next-gen GPU for the A16 Bionic thanks to last-minute engineering problems.

By 

The iPhone 14 series was a bit strange, and that's largely thanks to the weirdness relating to its SoC. The iPhone 14 and the iPhone 14 Plus both retain the same A15 Bionic from last year's iPhone 13 series, and the A16 Bionic has some improvements, but basically none for the GPU. To put it simply, they were the most incremental iPhones ever. It's hard to get a sense of what's going on in the Cupertino firm usually, but a report from The Information alleges that problems with the A16 Bionic's GPU that were only discovered late in the design process meant that the company was forced to scrap its next-generation GPU.

During its Far Out event, the Cupertino firm launched the iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Pro, and Apple Watch Series 8, in addition to other products. Arguably, the iPhone 14 Pro models grabbed most of the attention, featuring an all-new Dynamic Island, an Always-On Display (AOD) feature, an upgraded 48MP Wide camera, and more. Meanwhile, the regular iPhone 14 retained most of the specifications of its predecessor. Nonetheless, it still introduces support for some new technologies, such as Emergency SOS via satellite.
