It was a busy week over at Cupertino, California – the annual WWDC introduced the latest versions of Apple’s key operating systems. Let’s focus in on iOS – what did you think about its new features and improvements? If you need a refresher or you missed the announcement altogether, here’s what’s new in iOS 27.

Like with other book-style foldables, Motorola Razr Fold’s biggest flaw is its price – indeed, in last week’s poll, the biggest group of voters was the one that gave the price tag a thumbs down. To put it in concrete terms, the Fold has an MSRP of EUR 2,000 / GBP 1,800 / INR 150,000 / USD 1,900 / CAD 2,700. That’s not the only problem, but the high cost of the device amplifies its other issues. For one, Motorola promises 7 years of OS updates and security patches. That’s on par with what other manufacturers promise and better than most other Motorolas. However, Moto just doesn’t have the...

This week saw the annual WWDC from Apple. The week before, it was Google I/O – both are software-focused events, so there wasn’t any new hardware. So, we turn to older models instead. The Samsung Galaxy S26+ is not going to win any popularity contests, but it’s a solid middle-of-the-road smartphone that offers a good balance of features, support and price. Right now, the 512GB model is down to $900 – that’s the same price as the 256GB version, but note that only the Black units have such a deep cut. The Cobalt Violet is the second best at $1,020, which is a rather large gap. If you don’t...

Samsung's Galaxy-branded smartphones and tablets have been lacking a feature that many other Android devices, especially from Chinese brands, had for years. We are talking about the real-time network speed indicator displayed in the status bar, now available for Galaxy users via the QuickStar module in Samsung's Good Lock customization app. Samsung users could get a real-time network speed indicator on their Galaxy phone, but it required a third-party app or enabling a firmware flag if the device was rooted. But that's not needed now if your device is running the Android 17-based One UI 9,...

Camera company Insta360 launched the Luna Ultra three days ago. On the same day, DJI sued Insta360 in the US for how similar the Luna Ultra is to its upcoming Osmo Pocket 4P. Now, Insta360 has filed two countersuits against DJI in the US, asserting DJI infringed its patents related to gimbal and 360° camera tech. Insta360 says the patents infringed by DJI relate to gimbal stabilization, gimbal directional control, camera smooth stabilization, telemetry overlay, and panoramic video stabilization tech, all incorporated into several DJI products, including the Osmo Pocket series, Ronin/RS...
