Counterpoint Research says Apple captured 65% of the premium smartphone market in the first half of 2026, as the segment grew to a record 29% of global smartphone sales. Here are the details.

GymKit has been one of Apple Watch’s smartest fitness features since it launched in 2017. Tap your watch to compatible gym equipment, and Apple Watch shares your heart rate while the machine sends back metrics like distance, incline, pace, and calories.

With iOS 27, Apple is expanding that idea beyond Apple Watch. I tested the new GymKit on iPhone and AirPods Pro 3 experience with a GymKit-compatible treadmill. It basically gives you the Apple Watch GymKit workout tracking experience, just without the watch. This could be useful in a lot of scenarios.

Apple is gearing up for a more focused and potentially much more expensive iPhone launch this fall. 

For starters, the cheaper base iPhone 18 is being saved for spring. That leaves the more expensive Pro models and Apple’s first foldable iPhone Ultra to carry September, with higher-than-usual starting prices expected.

Here’s how Apple is already preparing to make the sticker shock more palatable for new customers and upgraders.

iPhone 18 Pro is only weeks away from launching, and a new report from Culpium indicates it could have limited availability due to a DRAM shortage holding up production.

When should we expect the iPhone 18 Pro event, and when will Apple officially announce the date? Apple hasn’t sent invitations yet, but its announcement history gives us a remarkably consistent window.

Apple’s first foldable iPhone is coming very soon, and based on rumors about the product, it sounds very much deserving of the ‘iPhone Ultra’ name. Here’s why.

Juggling multiple devices with Signal? The encrypted messaging service is making it easier to use the app across different iPhones and more.

iPhone 18 Pro is coming very soon, and expected to feature three upgrades that have been rumored for years. Here’s what’s coming.

Next year is the 20th anniversary of the iPhone, and rumors point to a radical new design for the iPhone Pro models. A new leak reveals dimensions for larger screen sizes reportedly coming.

Apple has outlined plans to let users copy and paste content between an iPhone and a Windows PC, following an interoperability request from Microsoft in the European Union. Here are the details.

The new Apple Upgrade program has a key piece of fine print: “If you’re leasing an iPhone, you’ll need to connect to AT&T, T-Mobile, or Verizon when you enroll.”

In a new post today, John Gruber at Daring Fireball has a likely explanation for this requirement.

Apple has two substantially unique iPhone designs launching in the coming year: iPhone Ultra this fall, and its 20th anniversary Pro models next year. Leaker Fixed Focus Digital has just shared updates on both products.

Next month, Apple will be unveiling its first foldable iPhone – rumored to be called iPhone Ultra. It’s going to feature a 5.5-inch outer display and 7.6-inch inner display. Late last month, Samsung introduced the new Galaxy Z Fold 8 – and it comes with those same screen sizes.

Whether or not you believe Samsung only made this phone to preempt the iPhone Ultra is a different story – but one way or another, seeing the Galaxy Z Fold 8 gives us a great early idea of what iPhone Ultra will feel like in the real world.

Next year, the iPhone will be turning 20 – and Apple is heavily rumored to be working on a radical new design to celebrate. Many have expected this to come in the form of iPhone 19 Pro (more likely to be called iPhone 20 to align with the anniversary), but I think there’s one solid reason that it may not be delivered in that form.

Since iOS 5 in 2011, the iPhone and iPad have included Notification Center, a central place to find alerts from various apps in chronological order.

Starting with iOS 27, Apple is making a major change to how users open Notification Center on iPhone and iPad.

iOS 27 is currently in beta, and the behavior has changed slightly between the first two releases. However, the four developer beta and second public beta show this change will ship this fall.

According to Counterpoint Research, Apple captured nearly half of global smartphone revenue during the second quarter, despite a market-wide decline in shipments. Here are the details.

When iPhone 17 Pro launched, Apple touted the device’s improved durability. One user just put that claim to the test—unintentionally—and came away shocked after her iPhone 17 Pro survived an airplane fall unscathed.

Apple is expected to release the iPhone Air 2 in early 2027, with several key improvements over the first model. In a new investor note seen today by 9to5Mac, analyst Jeff Pu has the full rundown on what features and changes to expect from the iPhone Air 2 …

Apple made a big change to iPhone purchasing options this week. Not only did it launch the Apple Upgrade leasing program, but it also killed the iPhone Upgrade Program.

With the iPhone 18 lineup just over a month away, I’m curious: how do you plan to buy your next iPhone?

iPhone 18 Pro is coming very soon, and it might cost much more than its predecessor, with a second report now predicting a starting price around $1,399.
