Earlier this week, a report from Nikkei said that Apple was considering delaying the iPhone 12 launch “by months.” Now, Reuters reports that while Apple’s supply chain is up and running in China, suppliers are worried about demand and a potential iPhone 12 delay. The Reuters report cites a “senior official at one of Apple’s major contract assemblers” who says Apple’s orders for fiscal Q2 are likely to be down around 18% year-over-year....

While we await Apple’s delayed cord-free, wireless AirPods, we’ve been reviewing the competition to see if they are indeed worth the wait. The $249 Skybuds are one of the latest entries, making a debut at Best Buy this month across the US. I’ve been testing them over the last couple weeks… Design The Skybuds manage to be on the smaller side compared to other cord-free earbuds I’ve tested recently— like The Bragi Dash or Sol Republic’s new Amps Air— but they are still borderline slightly bigger than I’d say is ideal for an earbud....

How do you charge iPhone 7 and listen to music at the same time? If you’re using Lightning headphones, like the new EarPods that Apple bundles in the box with iPhone 7, Belkin’s new Lightning Audio + Charge RockStar adapter is currently the only option. The company sent one over this week for us to test… With iPhone 7, Apple is transitioning users to Lightning and wireless headphone options. If you haven’t made the switch to wireless (we recommended our top picks), or you’re perhaps holding out for Apple’s new truly wireless AirPods coming out later this month, you’ll either have to use the Lightning EarPods that come with iPhone 7 (or third-party Lightning headphones), or use your old 3....

To the surprise of no one, the fitness industry is big business and gaming companies have all thrown in an attempt at taking the interactivity of games to a more physical level. Still, these often cater to a casual user and rarely appeal to gamers. Not because there’s no interest in being physically fit from avid gaming fans, but video games as a whole serve a different purpose to the core user....

Small, metallic and with USB Type C and USB Type-A too Western Digital has now returned to that “One Drive To Store Them All” formula with the SanDisk Ultra Dual Drive Luxe USB Type C. We will just call it the Ultra Dual henceforth, for the sake of simplicity and a more representative word count. We got the 128 GB version and well, it cuts a very impressive and very compact figure....

Another significant Resident Evil 3 remake leak has hit, this time a trove of gameplay screenshots that show off new monster designs. In addition to previously unseen looks at the game’s terrifying antagonist, Nemesis, the new images also reveal the first-ever look at the redesign of a haunting subterranean boss. The story of Resident Evil 3’s development thus far has been one defined by rumors and leaks, something that’s undoubtedly helped Capcom’s online marketing efforts more than any expensive campaign....

Google Reader is dead. We know this for certain as Google announced earlier in March that it plans to pull the plug on its RSS service on July 1, 2013. Google’s announcement caught the good people of the Internet by surprise and left us wondering, “What next?” David Smith, developer of Check the Weather and My Recipe Book, believes his new app Feed Wrangler for iOS has answered that question in a way that fixes the problem that led to Reader’s demise....

Before the Apple Watch was released, I wasn’t sure that it needed a dock or stand — the included charger would be enough, right? But after actually using the Watch, and noting that Apple included a dock with Edition models, I realized that these accessories had a functional purpose: they kept metal and metal-accented Apple Watch bands from rubbing against nightstands during charging. Some of the dock designs also looked really cool....

Here’s the Rick And Morty “To Be Fair You Have To Have A Very Hight IQ” meme explained. While Adult Swim has spawned a lot of cult shows like Aqua Teen Hunger Force and The Eric Andre Show, Rick And Morty is easily their biggest success. The show debuted in 2013, and on the surface appeared to be a Back To The Future inspired adventure about a genius scientist taking his grandson on universe hopping adventures....

Apple’s redesigned iMac was crafted, at least in part, by the company’s long-time design executive Jony Ive. Wired reports that even though Ive officially departed Apple in 2019, he was still involved in designing the first new iMac chassis in a decade. Unfortunately, details here are pretty vague. Apple reportedly would not confirm the timeline of Ive’s involvement in the new iMac design, only that he “had worked on it.” The tidbit was first spotted by MacRumors....

After first debuting on the Mac then joining iOS with the iPhone, Fantastical is finally ready to replace the calendar on your iPad, too. With Fantastical for iPad, Flexibits has brought the same, streamlined design and natural language parsing for quick event and reminder entry to the iPad. I’ve been using Fantastical for iPad for a few weeks now, so let’s take a look at how it compares to Apple’s calendar app…...

The concept and sales pitch first though – who is this aimed at? In my life, the following is a semi-regular occurrence, maybe once every few weeks. I’ll be on a big day out, either business or pleasure, and I’ll be on the way home and my phone (in this case, the Galaxy S9+) is on its last legs in terms of battery, after mountains of camera, GPS and general use....

Zombieland: Double Tap reunited audiences with Tallahassee, Columbus, Wichita and Little Rock a decade after the original cult classic. While zombies and the ways to kill them have both evolved over the course of ten years, the film itself proved that its creative team still had a handle on the zany comedy of their imaginary world. Screen Rant sat down with two of those creators, Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, to talk about the zombie (and human!...

Ring has announced a new external security camera designed to provide a neater and cheaper alternative to the Floodlight Camera it first announced back in January and launched later in the year. Along with more compact lighting, the Spotlight Cam is available in three versions depending on how you want it to be powered: wired, battery and solar … All three models have motion-activated cameras and lights, 1080p video, two-way talk and a siren alarm....

Rey (Daisy Ridley) debuts her very own lightsaber at the end of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, posing questions about how she’s able to build it and where she got the kyber crystal for it. There’s no explicit answer for this one, but the film may have left clues regarding the mysterious origin of her new weapon. As one of the main characters introduced in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, it became quickly apparent that there was a lot more to Rey than we were first told....

It’s no secret that Jughead Jones is one of the fans’ favorite characters on Riverdale. For four years, fans have watched as the writer has dedicated himself to discovering the truth about the town’s deepest and darkest secrets. However, while Jughead has been a beacon of hope for many, his Serpent lifestyle has also nearly dragged him down. When Jughead is with the Serpents, the high school student is not at his best....

His most notable work is the Academy Award-winning film Chicago (2002), for which he won the Directors Guild of America Award. A five-time Tony Award nominee, he also won a Primetime Emmy Award for his choreography in the television film Annie (1999).

Early reviews of Apple’s MacBook (Retina, 12-inch, Early 2015) have framed it as an expensive prototype from the future — a notebook that will someday be the standard, but one most people aren’t ready for yet. Despite that classification, the new MacBook is extremely tempting if you’re in the market for a new computer: it’s more portable than even the MacBook Air, it’s the first Mac available in gold and space gray finishes, and it has a trackpad with a new feature called Force Touch....

So it’s no wonder why trendy standing desks have become all the rage over the past few years — especially since the pandemic shifted so many people to begin working from home. While some products convert your existing desk into a standing version, other complete desks made by companies like Flexispot are designed to go from sitting to standing positions with the push of a button. I had a chance to try out the company’s Pro Series standing desk with dual motors and programmable height settings....

In a brand new behind the scenes video of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, proved that Teresa Giudice ordered Danielle Staub to pull Margaret Josephs’ ponytail. The hair-pull that was seen around the world caused Margaret Josephs to go to the hospital and she even claimed it made her suffer emotional distraught. Teresa has never been able to keep herself out of trouble since the star of season one, especially when Danielle Staub is concerned....
