WWDC 2026 is officially here, and Apple is set to kick off its annual developers conference with its keynote at 10 a.m. PT today. Apple will announce its latest software updates, including iPadOS 27, macOS 27, watchOS 27, tvOS 27, and visionOS 27. Could there also be a surprise or two in store? Below, we recap five key talking points as we approach WWDC 2026: Apple could announce new hardware at this year’s conference – apparently it even has a few new devices “ready to go” – but we’re keeping our expectations in check. Apple is believed to be holding…

The Worldwide Developers Conference 2026 will take place this week from June 8-12, and like the last six years, it will be an online event, although some developers and students will be invited to Apple Park. To kick things off, Apple is holding a grand opening event on Monday to announce new software, making it interesting for the general public. At the main event on Monday, June 8, Apple is expected to unveil iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, tvOS 27, watchOS 27, and visionOS 27. (The “27” represents the release season from September 2026 to September 2027.) You can…
We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Apple makes what some consider to be the best tablets you can buy. Its tablets are known for their powerful performance, excellent design, and solid build quality. But even though they clearly deviate from hardware experience to software experience, iPads are expensive, with the cheapest model, the 11th generation iPad, starting at $349 for a Wi-Fi-only variant. However, while iPads may be leading the tablet market, Apple isn’t the only game in town. There are other companies that make tablets, and some in China…
With the WWDC keynote just hours away, some developers have been sharing the contents of their conference goody bags on social media. The bags are given to attendees when they register for the event and usually contain limited edition Apple goodies. This year, developers registered early at Apple’s Infinite Loop campus, where they received a black tote bag emblazoned with the WWDC 2026 logo, along with a water bottle, a selection of stickers, and collectible enamel pins. There are four pins in the bag, including the Apple Skull and Crossbones, an Apple 50 pin, Clarius the Dogcow, and Little Finder…
Yarphoto/Getty Images Solar panels provide a clean, renewable source of continuous energy by converting sunlight into electricity. Sunlight hits the panel and is absorbed by the photovoltaic cells embedded inside, creating direct current (DC) electricity. An inverter is then used to convert the electricity into alternating current (AC), which homes use for appliances, gadgets, and more. This electricity flows through the system or into a home, where it can be used right away, but it isn’t stored anywhere unless you install a battery. A rechargeable battery connected to the system…

There are many good wearable devices for sleep tracking, and in general, these devices provide reliable data about your personal sleep habits. This includes the time it takes to fall asleep, the time spent in different stages of sleep and how often you wake up at night, as well as biomarkers such as heart rate and blood oxygen level. But if you’re looking…
Danny Ye/Shutterstock The list of things you can build with 3D printing seems to grow every day. Many obscure sites offering 3D printing projects allow hobbyists to print their own miniatures and toys, and engineers can now 3D print objects of unexpected size, such as houses and replica skeletons. Recently, scientists invented a 3D printing technique that they believe could resurrect the dodo. But don’t expect to print yours with your home printer. Recently, Colossal Biosciences (the company trying to revive the woolly mammoth) designed what it claims to be…
Hadrian/Shutterstock Bringing your electronics closer to magnets can be scary. After all, if magnets can pull on other metal objects, they can be expected to damage your smartphone’s internal components as well. We’ve seen this with past technology, where placing a magnet near your old TV would distort the picture or completely magnetically erase the data on your hard drive. Fortunately, most modern consumer devices are very resistant to small, everyday magnets and can function properly even with a magnet directly affecting them. Apple has a support page covering the…

However, this misconception hardly applies to desktop monitors designed specifically for high-end PCs. In fact, OLED technology in general has come a long way. While there are certainly pros and cons, using an OLED monitor for gaming is a perfectly viable decision. But what if you want to make sure you’re getting the best display for your gaming…
Chriss_ns/Getty Images We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Photographers are notoriously difficult to find. They can be picky about their equipment and already have many obvious accessories. This eliminates must-have options like camera bags, memory cards, and camera straps, making finding something thoughtful, useful, and within a reasonable budget an even bigger challenge. What makes things even more complicated is that cameras and lenses are incredibly expensive, and it’s not particularly easy to guarantee that you’re buying gear that’s compatible with what the photographer in your…
