While the weather in the northern hemisphere may signal a turn toward slower, cooler, even sleepier times, it’s the polar (get it?) opposite in the tech world.
Apple pulled off a surprising late-evening Apple silicon launch this week, bringing us ‘Scary Fast’ M3 chips and a bunch of new MacBook Pros running on them. It’s the first time Apple has launched three Apple silicon tiers at once (M3, M3 Pro, and M3 Max), and it tried to make the most of it with a pre-taped presentation that had enough fog to fill a classic horror movie but lacked all the jump scares. One thing it did leave us wondering though: did Apple really film all that with an iPhone 15 Pro?
If it did, then maybe you should keep our eyes open for a good iPhone Black Friday deal. Oh, you didn’t hear? When October ends, the deals officially begin – Black Friday shopping is a month-long event these days. At least TechRadar has all of your deal info covered.
As you shop, you might notice that some of us here are working overtime to come up with the best possible buying advice for every gadget you might want, and if that means wearing two smartwatches at once, so be it – you’ll find out how the watches, and I, got on in the story linked below. And don't miss the article that’s almost made me an ambient TV lighting believer (maybe).
The other great thing about this season, besides all the fun gadget and tech news, is the wealth of fresh streaming content that’s either available to watch now or is being teased in trailers (Ryan Gosling as a stuntman? Yes!). I also realize that I need to find out what all the fuss is about regarding Invincible – I wonder if it’s about an intrepid team of tech editors?
Apple packed a huge amount into its October event, and we've got all the details for you: find out about the three new M3 chips, the new MacBook Pros, and the new 24-inch iMac, plus what all this fresh hardware means for computing in 2024 and beyond.
We're into November, and that means deals season is truly upon us. The likes of Amazon, Best Buy and Walmart all have early Black Friday sales live in the US, and we're seeing record-low prices on some products. Here’s our list of the 13 best deals we've spotted.
Apple's Scary Fast showcase was filmed entirely on an iPhone 15 Pro Max, albeit with some seriously expensive movie-making accessories in tow – and it's sparked a debate about what we really mean when we say something has been "shot on iPhone".
Techradar's Lance Ulanoff has spent two weeks wearing both the Google Pixel Watch 2 and the Apple Watch Series 9 – we admire his dedication to product testing, and he has some thoughts about how these two wearables match up against each other.
From smartwatch testing to television testing: our TVs staff writer James Davidson has been taking a close look at the Philips Ambilight OLED808 OLED TV, and has declared himself very impressed with the integrated lighting effects that it offers.
Invincible is back for a second season on Amazon Prime Video, and we're pleased to report that the superhero show is better than ever. Season 2 premieres today, November 3, and our Senior Entertainment Reporter Tom Power has delivered his verdict.
