Knowing which the best iPhone used to be easy – you just had to choose the colour and the storage capacity. It was guaranteed to be among the best smartphones on sale. But now, things are not so simple. From Mini to Plus to Pro to Pro Max, Apple’s flagship phones ship in more variants than ever before. And just to muddy the waters further, the mobile maker still sells a few of its former headline handsets from previous generations, as well as the entry-level SE for buyers on a budget. So there’s an Apple smartphone for everyone. The tricky…

AI is terrible. AI will improve our future. Whether you love or hate AI, holding both those thoughts in your head at the same time might make it hurt. But you should. Because last week, two industry giants perfectly demonstrated how both statements can be true. Yes, AI can be a menace and a boon – it all depends on how it’s being used. Right now, Netflix and Meta are using AI in very different ways. One is solving problems. The other is inviting us to stare into the abyss. Netflix first. Its plans have – for now – even convinced an AI sceptic like me. That’s…

Despite its cheap price, it’s not a Chromebook — it’s running Windows 10 as standard. We think this makes it an ideal laptop for slightly older children who are looking to use fully-fledged apps and software for school/hobbies, or other casual users.

Not all ChatGPT models are created equal, and picking the wrong one can lead to slow output, poor performance, and, worst of all, AI hallucinations. Fortunately, OpenAI has taken the time to help us choose the best model for every task and finally make it clear when you should use each one. Why Choosing the Right ChatGPT Model Matters After releasing ChatGPT in 2022, OpenAI had just one model. Since then, the company has periodically introduced new versions, making it hard to keep up, even for someone closely following the latest technology news. If you already find AI model names…

I was excited when Spotify launched its AI playlist generator. However, after trying it for several weeks, it left me yearning for more. That prompted me to go on a search to find the best alternatives. Luckily, I stumbled across three AI playlist generators that outshine Spotify’s. I was excited when Spotify launched its AI playlist generator, but having tried it on multiple occasions, it doesn’t quite hit the spot. That’s why I went on the hunt to find other AI playlist generators—and found three that are better than Spotify. PlaylistAI is my go-to playlist generator when I want to…

I was starting my day already behind, but I didn’t need a 5 AM club or some shiny productivity app. One AI-powered tweak to my morning routine gave me back a full hour. Why I Was Starting My Day Already Behind Every morning started the same way: I would wake up, reach for my phone, scroll through messages and headlines, then stare at a growing task list with no idea where to begin. I wasn’t lazy, but I just felt stuck in the monotony. My mind was foggy, my to-do lists on the whiteboard looked overwhelming, and I often wasted…

When setting up a new smart TV, ignoring the clutter of pre-installed apps you didn’t ask for is hard. These apps clutter your screen, eat up storage, and even slow things down, which is why I always remove a few key ones to improve my experience. 7 Manufacturer Smart Home Apps John Awa-abuon/MakeUseOf The first app I delete is the TV brand’s proprietary smart home dashboard, like the TCL Home app or its equivalents. These apps promise centralized control over your TV and other devices, but they’re usually clunky, limited, and unnecessary. If you already use Google Home, Alexa, or…

Not everyone wants – or needs – to splash out on a top-end OLED that costs more than a long weekend in Paris (such as those found in our best 4K TV guide). That’s where the best mid-range TVs come in. These are the sets that balance picture quality, features and price in a way that makes sense for most people. You’re still getting 4K resolution, slick smart features and support for the latest formats like HDR10+ and Dolby Vision – just without the eye-watering price tag. And don’t assume “mid-range” means compromise. Some of the best TVs we’ve tested…

YouTube is making waves by bringing some big changes to its app for TVs and gaming consoles. But don’t expect something truly better, just mostly more of the streaming giant’s worst feature. Say Hello to More Shorts and a Variety of Shelves YouTube In April 2025, YouTube mentioned that it was planning a redesigned video player and other improvements. But first spotted by 9to5Google, there’s much more in the works, and some of it isn’t exactly exciting. The app will be adding a number of shelves to give you quick access to videos. YouTube explains more about what to expect:…

It’s 2025, and AI has moved beyond the hype. For many, it’s become a familiar part of everyday life, handling routine tasks with ease. Yet, in the hands of a creative mind, AI has the power to ignite innovation, inspire experimentation, and lead to surprising breakthroughs. The following screenshots were taken from ChatGPT in sequential order, and together form a continuous conversation. 1 Collaborate With AI AI has the capacity to explore options you might overlook. It can delve into concepts outside your realm of experience, ideas shaped by different cultural contexts, or even patterns that aren’t immediately obvious to…
