Silksong on Android is now a reality, no port required! #TITW
The Verge· 2025-09-11 15:45
Silk Song on Android. This isn't a trick. Today, I'm toying with an actual PC game on my Galaxy S25, and it's so easy to set up that anyone can do it.Again, I'm not streaming this game. I actually installed my Steam copy of Silkong on my phone, complete with my SteamCloud saves. I'm using a Windows emulator called GameHub from Gamepad Maker Game Ser, which just added SteamCloud saves for the very first time.You won't find this app on Google Play, but once you install and log into Steam, it installs the righ ...

The base model iPhone 17 might be the best deal for most people.
The Verge· 2025-09-11 14:01
I think the regular iPhone 17 might actually be the best of Apple's new iPhones, especially because it didn't get a price hike. For one thing, the iPhone 17 finally gets a screen with an adaptive refresh rate of up to 120 Hz, which means you'll see smoother scrolling and animations on your phone. It's a feature that's been exclusive to Apple's Pro phones for years, and now it's on the base model.The screen is a little bigger and can get a little brighter, too. The iPhone 17 also gets a new selfie cam that c ...

The Verge· 2025-09-10 02:05
Let's talk Apple watches. I got to tell you, this year uh is not what I expected. It's a little bit of a weird year because the watch I'm most excited about is the Apple Watch SE3, the $250 entrylevel Apple Watch, is actually getting a bunch of updates.A lot of the things that you would expect to see on the series watches is coming downstream to the entry level. We're talking things like a wrist temperature sensor, faster charging, and you know, the thing that we've always wanted from the SE3. We are gettin ...
iPhone 17 Pro hands-on
The Verge· 2025-09-10 01:47
[Music] At Apple's hardware event this year, the Pro is here with a new redesign. It looks a little different than it did in the previous years. It's got a big camera bar on the back. Apple wants to call it a camera plateau.I won't be calling it that. It's a camera bar. The whole phone is made out of aluminum.Apple shifted back to aluminum from the titanium of previous models for heat dissipation reasons. There's ceramic shield on the front and on the back panel. It gives it this kind of two-tone thing goin ...
iPhone Air hands-on: as slim as it looks
The Verge· 2025-09-09 23:47
[Music] I'm in Certino for Apple's annual hardware event and just met the entire iPhone 17 series, but there's a new member of the family this year. It's the iPhone Air. It's not the 17 Air, but it's in the family.It has a striking new design. It is super thin, as you might have guessed from the name, just over 5 mm thick. That actually makes it a little bit thinner than the Samsung Galaxy Edge.Not by much. They're both really thin phones. By comparison, the 17 Pro is 8.75% mm thick, so much thinner here.So ...

The Verge· 2025-09-09 22:01
So, we just got our hands on time with the Apple watches, the Series 11, SE3, and the Ultra 3. And I got to say, the winner right off the bat is the SE3. Basically, what Apple's doing is it's taking a bunch of the features that you would expect on a series, and they're bringing it down to the entry-level device.Some of the updates are things like a wrist temperature sensor, an always on display, like we've always wanted, some of the new health features like a sleep score and faster charging. Now, for the ot ...

heart rate sensing during workouts with AirPods Pro 3. To do this, we custom built Apple's smallest heart rate sensor.

Hands-on with the Apple 17 Pro with new colors, hardware design, and front-facing camera sensor
The Verge· 2025-09-09 21:46
I'm here at Apple Park and I just got a look at the iPhone 17 Pro. This is a big year for the Pro iPhones. It's their first redesign since the iPhone 11 back in 2019.The camera bar now stretches all across the back of the phone and there's now a glass cutout in the center. It creates this neat two-tone look and feel where you have the matte aluminum around most of the body and the glass through the center. Apple says this is meant to improve the thermals of the phone so it can run more powerful for longer w ...
