Now, however, it appears that Apple has pulled some of these new updates due to problems with network connectivity in Australia. more…

The decision on whether to absorb rising costs or pass them on to customers in the form of higher prices is not going to be an easy one, and a look at the numbers makes it clear why Cook was unwilling to rule out the latter possibility … more…
Apple last week changed the way you buy a Mac online, removing the previous lineup of customizable pre-configured options and instead putting you straight into configuring your spec from scratch. While at first glance this seems a somewhat strange thing to do, arguably making it a little more complicated for a non-tech buyer to choose their Mac, the change could provide support for a theory that Apple will allow you to separate CPU and GPU options when buying an M5 Pro or Max Mac … more…
In the future, Apple users should expect more paid upgrades and subscription bundles just like what the company launched with Apple Creator Studio last month. As said by Mark Gurman in this week’s Power On newsletter, “I believe Apple is looking at all areas of its software and services” for further services monetization opportunities. Obviously, the appeal of more subscription bundles depends on the particulars. For instance, Apple One has been very popular and seems relatively consumer friendly. But, while Creator Studio is a reasonable deal for hardcore users of Final Cut and Logic Pro, it also introduced exclusive paid features and upsell banners into Apple’s previously free-with-no-asterisks iWork suite of Pages, Keynote and Numbers. more…

Request your EXTENDED TRIAL today and understand why Mosyle is everything you need to work with Apple. Amid the heap of an EU fine levied on X earlier this month, Elon Musk announced that the platform’s entire recommendation algorithm would go open source. Seemingly to help cool the regulatory waters by providing greater transparency into how the social media giant organizes users’ timelines. Usually, IT professionals would see news around something going open source, smile, and move on with their lives. But last week, I came across an interesting thread on none other than X that explains how this move can actually expose anonymous alt accounts through “behavioral fingerprints”…for better or worse. more…

With Apple Silicon, they bet that the most important processing would happen locally on the Neural Engine. I believe Apple made an incredibly important decision. more…

Some of my earliest memories go back to the late 90s when the Game Boy Color launched. I remember being six or seven years old, walking into a store with my dad to pick up a Game Boy Color and a copy of Pokémon Blue. I spent countless hours playing that Game Boy, and looking back, it played a major role in sparking the tech interest I still carry today. Fast forward to 2026, and mobile gaming has evolved in ways we could not have imagined back then. Touchscreens are incredibly capable, but nothing truly replaces the tactility of real buttons, and most controllers are not portable enough to justify carrying everywhere. So when I saw just how tiny and lightweight the abxylute M4 Snap-On Mobile Controller was, I knew I had to test it for myself. Here is what you should know. more…
