It’s entirely possible to use Plex without any third-party plugins or apps, especially if you’re just using it casually. Everything you need to stream your media library comes with the packaging, so to speak. However, once I discovered Plex could do more, I realized I needed it to do more, like a customer not knowing what they want until they have it. What I wanted was to turn Plex into a true media library—a server to house all of my entertainment, from photos to movies. And it just so happens I didn’t need to look into third-party software to make…
The new iPhone 17 line-up was unveiled at Apple’s “Awe Dropping” event on 9 September. The all-new iPhone Air replaces the Plus model, and sits alongside the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max. There’s plenty new under the hood – and a surprising amount that’s stayed the same. If, like me, you can’t wait to get your hands on the latest iPhones, you’ll want to make sure you pre-order the iPhone 17. There are lots of dates to remember, so here I’ll walk you through how to pre-order the iPhone 17 line-up and where you can. When is…
iPhone Air is unlike any smartphone you’ve ever experienced before. iPhone Air is a total game changer. And iPhone Air is so light that you’ll need to use the new Apple crossbody strap with it, because if you accidentally release the thing from your grasp, it will soar up to the heavens like a helium-filled balloon. Apple CEO Tim Cook definitely said at least two of those things at the company’s September event, causing me to emit some air of my own (Sighing! I’m talking about sighing!) at yet another waft of Apple hyperbole. Look, it’s not that the iPhone Air is…
The new iPhone 17 line-up was unveiled at Apple’s “Awe Dropping” event on 9 September. There’s a shake-up in the line-up, with the all-new iPhone Air replacing the Plus model. Apple’s annual autumnal ritual of top smartphone upgrades is back, with the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max and iPhone Air now squaring off. There’s plenty new under the hood – and a surprising amount that’s stayed the same. While we’re yet to get our hands on the whole range, I’ve been pouring over every little detail about the new smartphones. There’s a lot to like, no…
One of this year’s hottest upcoming phone series is set to debut shortly. Yes, it’s time for the iPhone 17, which is set to appear alongside the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max. And there’s also a super-thin iPhone Air as well. Like the Galaxy S25 Edge, that will likely have a smaller battery but sleeker finish. You can read more about the iPhone 17 in our dedicated piece – but when will it actually be out? We now know iPhone 17 pre-orders start on Friday 12 September with the general iPhone 17 release date on Friday 19 September. How…
Every time I see a flat-panel TV installed without a soundbar, I ask myself, “Why?” They’re sleek, relatively inexpensive, easy to install, and far more powerful than built-in TV speakers. However, while most sound good right out of the box, your soundbar can perform much better with just a few quick adjustments. While a soundbar will significantly improve the audiovisual experience without the bulk of a full home theater system, with a few simple placement tweaks and some fine-tuning, it’s possible to unlock its full potential. Whether you’re watching movies, gaming, or listening to music, optimizing your soundbar will help…
There’s no iPhone 17 Plus this year, ditching the larger base-model option. Instead, we’ve got a new addition to the latest smartphones: the iPhone Air. It’s lighter, thinner, and more expensive, which probably tells you everything you need to know. Apple’s not just shuffling names for fun – this is a strategy shift, and the Plus has quietly been shown the door. We’ve now seen a few years of the Plus-size iPhone. It gave buyers a bigger screen and bigger battery without needing to fork out for a Pro Max. But for 2025, Apple decided the middle child wasn’t pulling…
The Apple Watch line-up has once again had its annual refresh of Cupertino’s best smartwatches. 2025 sees the arrival of the Apple Watch Series 11, SE 3, and Ultra 3. While these watches bring a fair bit of polish, they’re hardly revolutionary – more focusing on generational upgrades. Still, there are a few shiny new tricks up their sleeves – and a price tag to match. So which one should you slap on your wrist? Design & build: now with more buzzwords Design-wise, Apple hasn’t strayed too far from the path. The Series 11 is sleeker than ever, thinner and…
Imagine my surprise when I opened my email account to find a lovely fresh warning from one of the world’s leading media streaming platforms. That’s right: It’s time to change your Plex password, because it’s suffered a data breach specifically affecting your password, email address, and authentication data—which means your account is in danger of being hacked if you don’t act now. Change your Plex password now before your account is breached It’s time to make a change NAR by Gavin The Plex email that landed in my inbox is titled “Action required: Notice of a potential security incident,” which…
