I had the chance to see Sony’s set in action ahead of its official release. Although Sony has yet to announce price and availability, we were offered a hands-on demo of what could end up being one of the best TVs we’ve ever tested in terms of performance. After all, QD-OLED is shaping up to be the kind of set everyone wants in their living room. In the simplest terms, the technology promises to combine the best picture elements of quantum dot and OLED....

Core workouts are part of my weekly workout routine as a runner. And as an avid Pilates fan, I wasn’t too worried about this workout. I was wrong. Despite looking OK on paper, my lower abs were aching for a good few hours after this workout, and I definitely noticed them looking more defined the next day. Looking for more inspiration? I’ve hand-picked the best ab workouts on the internet, which are completely free, as well as the best exercises for strengthening your knees, and the best exercise to build your arm muscles using just your bodyweight....

We’re talking specifically about two Messages additions — the ability to edit iMessages you’ve already sent and, in more dire situations, the ability to undo sent messages entirely. It shouldn’t take too rich of an imagination to imagine circumstances where you’d want Messages to save you from yourself. Imagine a text message you’ve sent to colleagues where you talk about an attitude shift — only in your haste to send the text, you left out the “f” in “shift....

That’s the word from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman (opens in new tab), who predicts “major changes across the system” for Apple’s annual iOS update. That doesn’t mean overhaul of the software’s look and design, though. Instead, the expectations is updated features and “fresh Apple apps.” “On the iOS side, I’m looking for some fairly significant enhancements across the board, including an update to notifications and new health-tracking features,” Gurman wrote in his newsletter earlier this week....

The iPad 2022’s new design is looking locked in for later this month as one accessory maker has released a case tailor-made for the allegedly new body. The thing is though, with the rumors now saying that the Apple October product launches will come via press releases rather than a full announcement event, it would feel weird to see one of Apple’s most popular products get a refresh of this magnitude without the full launch presentation treatment....

In my Apple iPad Air 2022 review, I said that the optional Magic Keyboard attachment turns the new iPad Air into a small laptop. My colleague Henry Casey shared a similar sentiment in his review of the previous model. Having a Magic Keyboard is what makes this seem like a good idea: Though I maintain that the Magic Keyboard is very expensive at $349, it’s a crucial peripheral for those who want to get more use out of the iPad Air beyond its touch capabilities....

A new iPhone sales data report from CIRP (opens in new tab) has lots of fun findings, such as how the majority of iPhones sold this quarter were still iPhone 13 models, that the iPhone 11 continues to be surprisingly popular, and the iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 13 mini continue to not be. But what caught my attention was the model breakdown, which shows what percentage of each iPhone version’s sales were for each available storage option....

Gurman said as much in his latest Power On (opens in new tab) newsletter, during the subscriber-exclusive Q&A section, noting he believes that Face ID is here to stay and that Touch ID won’t be returning to flagship iPhones in the foreseeable future. Gurman claims that Apple has been discussing the possibility of reintroducing Touch ID. The company has reportedly been testing in-screen fingerprint scanners, and has considered adding fingerprint recognition to the power button — as it did with the iPad Air 2020 and iPad mini 2021....

After discount, you can get the Roomba s9+ with the Braava jst m6 and H1 handheld vacuum for $1,399.97 (opens in new tab). That’s $350 off and one of the best robot vacuum deals we’ve seen.

Introduced in the latest Steam Beta (opens in new tab), Joy-Cons can be used individually as a hand-cramp inducing mini controller, or as a matched pair for a more traditional gamepad experience. In other words, it’s exactly how you’d use them with a Switch, barring the ability to physically clip them to the side of the screen. To try this for yourself, you first need to be opted in to receive Steam beta updates....

From the entry-level Kaspersky Anti-Virus to the top shelf Kaspersky Total Security, Kaspersky’s Windows antivirus programs protect you from online dangers with local scanning and cloud-based machine-learning.

Leicester City vs Leeds is a matchup that could ultimately determine who stays up at the end of the 2022 English Premier League season. Leicester have fallen a long way from the highs of 2015/16’s title-winning season and FA Cup 2021. Instead, they are fighting for their Premier League survival, entering Thursday’s game firmly in the relegation zone. Their recent form has been mixed, with one win, one loss and one draw in their last three Premier League fixtures....

A new Mac mini could build upon the rather excellent current Mac mini, with its Apple M1 chip, by upgrading to the new Apple M2 chip. But a new design is also on the cards to refresh the look of the compact computer. It’s also possible for the Mac Mini to pack the rumored M2 Pro chip. Nevertheless, read on for what we know so far about the long-rumored Mac mini 2023....

And now that Marvel’s officially announced the film, after it was the subject of speculation ever since Disney acquired 20th Century Fox, the Fantastic Four movie exists in that gray area of casting rumors. But why will this movie be better than the many that preceded it? Well, Disney’s track record with Marvel movies is much stronger than any other studio’s. On top of that, at D23 we learned FF is going to be helmed by one of the best directors in the MCU: Matt Shakman (fresh off WandaVision)....

In a recent post on SadlyInReality (opens in new tab), prominent leaker Brad Lynch laid out his expectations for the currently unannounced Meta Quest 3 and Meta Quest Pro. While most of the post focuses on finalizing expectations for the Quest Pro, we did get some potentially new Quest 3 details. In a datamine, Lynch was able to find a segment of code that potentially lays out the resolution for the Quest 3 at 4,128 by 2,208 pixels or 2,064 by 2,208 pixels per eye....

Mint normally charges $30 per month for unlimited data, both as an introductory rate and as the discounted rate you pay when you commit to a year’s worth of service from the carrier. As part of a “deflation” promotion announced by celebrity owner Ryan Reynolds, though, that introductory rate falls to $15 a month (opens in new tab) — half of what you normally pay. In fact, the $15 monthly rate covers all of Mint Mobile’s plans, including the 15GB (normally $25/month) and 10GB (normally $20/month) offerings....

Morocco have only reached the last 16 once before (in 1986) and with seven points in the Group Stage, they are enjoying their best-ever World Cup. Spain conversely started on fire with a 7-0 thumping of Costa Rica but a draw and then a defeat has led some to question whether their tiki-taka style is quite as dominant as it used to be. In this meeting of two attacking sides, someone’s tournament has to end....

It turns out we’re going to have to wait a while longer to see the latest version of Motorola’s next foldable phone. A launch event in China scheduled for today (August 2) for the Motorola Razr 2022 and another device from the phone maker has been cancelled, without any new date provided. Motorola and Lenovo mobile general manager Chen Jin made the announcement on the Chinese microblogging site Weibo (opens in new tab), as spotted by Android Authority (opens in new tab)....

Speaking of personal stories, Kamala’s actually fallen back in time, after Najma (of the Clandestines) stabbed her bracelet and created some sort of rift. Now, Kamala’s at the Karachi train station where her family’s long-obscured story from the Partition took place. This, as folks who watched WandaVision and Moon Knight may realize, feels oddly familiar. Marvel’s Disney Plus shows have an interesting habit of placing their big flashback episode — where we get to learn secrets that explain more of the storylines taking place — in the penultimate chapters of their shows....
