Apple would prefer that newfound owners of its brand spanking new Vision Pro headset enjoy their “spatial computer” in the comfort of their home, hopefully, while they’re on the couch and far away from spike pits or other video game-esque traps.

Remember those patents Apple filed last year that hinted at a foldable iPhone? Apparently, CEO Tim Cook’s company hasn’t given up on trying to make a true foldable. A new report claims two foldable iPhone prototypes are in the works, suggesting Apple is trying to catch up with the burgeoning foldable market. However, we may not see it for at least another two years, and it will likely come out after we see a foldable iPad. - Kyle Barr Read More

Ready to see your favorite team’s field goal fail from up close? This year’s Super Bowl LVIII is adding a swathe of new tech to the proceedings, but first up on the list is a set of all-new “doink” cams centered on the uprights of Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium.

It’s also the first time a third-party manufacturer is waving the freak flag for Google’s AI initiatives.

Yahoo!, or Yahoo, or just yahoo... There’s less and less to be excited about as time goes on, and Yahoo, too, has become more unenthused as its once-bright star waned over the past three decades. Once the most popular online directory and search engine on the web, Yahoo turned 30 years old last week, Jan. 30, and nobody gave a damn. - Kyle Barr Read More

YouTube TV seems to be introducing better picture quality for all subscribers, even though the company itself isn’t making it known far and wide for some inexplicable reason, especially as it calls the new option its “highest video quality” while ignoring how you still need to pay extra for true 4K. - Kyle Barr Read More

Samsung still needs to officially announce which of its new Galaxy AI offerings in the Galaxy S24 series will make it to older devices.

Now that the Apple Vision Pro is officially hitting the streets, folks who ordered early are truly able to see how hard they can push their $3,500 headset. While there’s no medical terminology for that feeling of somebody taking a sledgehammer to your wallet, a few people are already tearing the Vision Pro apart in spectacular fashion to understand how it ticks and perhaps learn what would happen if you can’t help but walk headlong into walls while engaged in Apple’s “spatial” environment. - Kyle Barr Read More
