Remember when brand new iPhones used to bend? What about stainless steel Apple Watches or Jet Black iPhone 7 scratching? And don’t even get me started on MacBook aluminum scratches. Well, Apple may fix all of that in the not so distant future, as it’s currently studying ways of creating abrasion-resistant surface finishes on metal …
We’re used to seeing delays from Apple these days, both when it comes to new hardware or software features. Remember when Apple fanboy bloggers used to mock other companies for announcing products that weren’t ready to ship yet? AirPods, iPhone X, HomePod, and iPhone XR are just some of the devices Apple has delayed in …
Starting at $1,099, the iPhone XS Max is the most expensive smartphone Apple has ever sold. Therefore, its repair costs are greater than any iPhone as well, which shouldn’t come as much of a surprise: Apple devices are expensive, and repairing them is expensive as well. But when you put the numbers into perspective, they …
Pre-orders for the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max opened last night, and if you were hoping to score a new iPhone on launch day…well, let’s just say you should start lining up now. Delivery dates have already slipped to a month after launch for some models, and the trend is likely to keep getting …
Apple has been switching things up a bit in recent years, but there are some patterns we can always count on. At the heart of Apple’s cyclical tendencies is a late-summer iPhone release, of course, which is timed perfectly ahead of the holiday shopping season.

Early on Friday morning, Apple started taking iPhone XS and XS Max preorders in more than 30 countries and territories where the two phones will be released next week.

A couple of years ago, I skipped the iPhone 7 because the feature I wanted, the dual-lens camera, was a Plus exclusive, and I don’t do Plus phones. A year later, Apple placed a dual-lens shooter on a device that had a screen as big as the Plus phones, but in the same familiar body …
It’s the first Friday that follows Apple’s mid-September iPhone event, which means the new iPhones are available for preorder — at least some of them. You still have to wait to order that new iPhone XR phone, but the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max are available for preorder right now from Apple and its …
I hope that you’re wide-eyed, bushy-tailed, and thoroughly caffeinated, because pre-orders for Apple’s new iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, and Apple Watch Series 4 are about to go live. Because Apple enjoys messing with people’s sleep schedules, the pre-orders will open at exactly 3:00AM ET/12:00AM PT today, September 14th. Given how things have gone in …
We’ve gotten used to seeing Apple announce new products, including hardware and software, only to delay their actual launch or availability. The same happened yesterday when Apple unveiled a bunch of exciting devices and novel features. But some of those devices, namely the iPhone XR, won’t be available for preorder until October.
