    Diving in to what's great with the 'boring' iPhone 16 and Apple Watch on the AppleInsider Podcast

    Both the new iPhone 16 range and the Apple Watch Series 10 have been described as merely incremental updates, but in practice there is such a lot more to them, even before Apple Intelligence arrives.

    As we wait for the iPhone 16 launch and recount all the rumors, spammers are busy sending hysterical emails that are shockingly effective -- and the Mac has a chance to dethrown Windows as a gaming platform.

    Glowtime is coming and AirTags save the day, on the AppleInsider Podcast

    We're days away from the launch of the iPhone 16 range, but the question is whether Apple will make it to September 9 considering that it is -- yet again -- doomed. Before the company implodes, though, its AirTags have helped track down a missing child.
