In the days leading up to Apple’s iPhone 11 event, we learned that Apple is already testing some sort of augmented reality (AR) device that will work in conjunction with iPhones. Code in an iOS 13 beta as well as new icons suggested that the so-called Apple Glasses might launch sooner than expected, with some people speculating that Apple’s “one more thing” announcement during Tuesday’s iPhone 11 event might be about AR glasses. That didn’t turn out to be the case, and Apple is yet to confirm any plans for an AR headset of its own. Before the leak, the most bullish estimates said the Apple AR gadget might arrive in 2020 at the earliest, and there’s no indication that Apple is getting ready to unveil it sooner than that. Now, a new discovery in iOS 13 code indicates that Apple might not even be trying that hard to conceal the active development of its first-gen AR headset.

If you follow tech news closely, then you may have noticed something strange this week. An increasing number of Pixel 4 rumors popped up online just as we were getting closer to Apple’s iPhone 11 announcement. We saw more Pixel 4 units in the wild than ever before, complete with an additional, unexpected color for the series. We even saw the first leaked TV ad for the handset. And on the very same that day Apple unveiled the iPhone 11 series, the Pixel 4’s launch date also leaked. Don't Miss : The rugged, spill-proof Chromebook everyone loves is somehow only $199 today Well-known leaker Evan Blass tweeted an image of the Pixel 4 with a date prominently displayed on the screen: October 15th. “Google Fall Event: 10/15?” he asked rhetorically. Here’s the full image of the Pixel 4 that was shared on Twitter: Google has held a Pixel event every October since the introduction of the first-generation Pixel handset that replaced the Nexus line. Therefore, it’s hardly a surprise ...

After months upon months of leaks and rumors, Apple’s next-generation iPhone lineup is finally official. Were there any surprises left after all those leaks? Shockingly, there were plenty! The new iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max indeed feature many of the things we saw in insider reports leading up to Tuesday’s big press conference. But leakers who are typically reliable got so much about the new iPhone lineup wrong. The phones’ new designs were pictured dozens and dozens of times, but no one nailed it. The camera arrays look totally different, the finish on the back is totally different, there’s no new color with a “shimmer” effect like all those Chinese smartphones, and the old mute switch has not been replaced by a tiny toggle like the one on the iPad Pro. As for features, mistakes were made there as well. No one leaked things like Spatial Audio or Slo-Mo Selfies, and the reverse wireless charging feature we heard so much about is nowhere to be found. Those were al...

Apple just unveiled the three iPhone 11 phones we were all expecting, including the iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max. The iPhone 11 is the cheaper new iPhone you can buy right now, and it’s even cheaper than we thought — the 64GB version will retail for $699, $50 less than the original iPhone XR price last year. The Pro models, start at $999 or $1,099, depending on size, matching Apple’s pricing structure introduced last year. But Apple didn’t just unveil three new iPhones, it also discontinued a bunch of handsets, streamlining its iPhone offerings in the process. The iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone XS, and iPhone XS Max are gone from Apple’s website. Apple did keep in place three of its older iPhones, including the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus, which are the only Touch ID iPhones that Apple will still sell. Also sticking for one more year is the iPhone XR, which now costs $599. In total, you have more than a dozen iPhone options waiting in stores and online this holiday...

Apple on Tuesday unveiled a bunch of new products, including the highly anticipated iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro phones that were featured in numerous reports during the past few months. Many of those iPhone rumors came true, but not all of them. Notably absent from the show was the reverse wireless support feature the iPhone 11 phones were supposed to get. A last-minute leak, however, said Apple wasn’t happy with it and could have scrapped the project. Also, a last-minute leak told us the new phones will feature a brand new type of silicon, and Apple did deliver that one. But the company hardly addressed in on stage during the event. That’s the new U1 chip that was shown on certain roundup slides during the Apple event, and which is explained on Apple’s product pages for the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro. Don't Miss : Add a head-up display to any car for $40 With the U1 chip, you’ll be able to share files, find people and objects and play “more precisely than ever,” Apple explai...

If you were to travel back in time to an age when dinosaurs roamed the Earth, you’d have plenty of things to fear. Dinosaurs that ruled the land were often massive, and the oceans were dominated by creatures just as fearsome. The skies had their own fair share of impressive beasts, and newly-discovered fossils are helping to hammer that point home in dramatic fashion. A new study published in the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology describes an ancient airborne reptile so huge it would rival some small airplanes today. The species, named Cryodrakan boreas , means “Frozen Dragon of the North,” just to give you an idea of the kind of creature we’re talking about. Don't Miss : Cuisinart cast iron cookware is down to rock-bottom prices on Amazon, today only Determining the existence of this new species was made possible thanks to a partial skeleton that was discovered in Alberta, Canada, in an area well known by fossil hunters.

If appearance alone is any guide, Amazon spared no expense on the sumptuous, evocative sets and costumes it prepared to build the fantasy world of its new series Carnival Row — which introduces viewers to magical creatures, a fictional Victorian-era city and a story that, to say the least, has a lot going on. Packed into the narrative is a potent mix of magic, crimes to be solves, politics, the treatment of migrants and immigrants as well as an uneasy balance between fairies and humans, and whether you’re ultimately a fan or not, the show seems to have served Amazon’s purpose, based on at least one metric. According to fresh data about what shows viewers have been watching the most across the major streaming platforms over the past week, Amazon’s Carnival Row is at the top of the list. Don't Miss : Cuisinart cast iron cookware is down to rock-bottom prices on Amazon, today only That’s based on data from streaming search engine Reelgood, which shared with BGR a list of the t...

Facebook has been doing its best to convince us that it’s concerned about user privacy and security, but it’s not doing a great job. Just a few days ago, we saw the latest proof that Facebook isn’t ready to protect all of your data. And if you wanted more proof that you should be careful about what kind of data you store on Facebook’s servers, even if temporarily, you need to read a new report. It turns out that private Instagram posts and videos can be accessed with relative ease by people who aren’t even following you. Don't Miss : Cuisinart cast iron cookware is down to rock-bottom prices on Amazon, today only The supposedly protected content posted to private accounts on Instagram and Facebook can be accessed, downloaded, and shared with third parties “with a stupidly simple work-around,” BuzzFeed discovered. The hack, which isn’t really a hack, “requires only a rudimentary understanding of HTML and a browser,” and works on Instagram stories as well: It can be done in...

Head up displays are so cool, but they’re typically reserved solely for expensive cars like BMWs and Mercedes. There are little gadgets that let you turn your smartphone into a HUD, but the info they reflect on your windshield isn’t always accurate, plus they’re difficult to see.

Our Sun is an incredible, abundant source of energy that we’re only just now beginning to learn how to tap. Plants, on the other hand, are masters at exploiting the free energy delivered from the sky, so it’s only natural that scientists look to them for inspiration. Now, an ongoing effort from researchers with the Eindhoven University of Technology has yielded a promising new type of artificial leaf. Like actual foliage, the faux leaves take in sunlight and use it to create something entirely new, only instead of generating fuel for a living plant, these “mini-reactors” can produce medicine for humans. Don't Miss : It’s iPhone day, and Amazon is blowing out OtterBox cases starting at $16 The research team has been working on this artificial leaf system for some time, first presenting a prototype back in 2016. Now, the technology has been refined and the researchers say that the colorful fake foliage can be used to create just about any kind of drug imaginable. Taking cues fr...
