Future iPhones may utilize multi-spectral cameras for Apple Intelligence
A new rumor says that Apple is exploring the use of multi-spectral camera technology, which could be a boon for iPhone photography but may also aid Visual Intelligence.Apple is looking to multi-spectral technology for future iPhone camerasThe Visual Intelligence feature in Apple Intelligence keeps improving, whether it's describing what the camera is showing, or it's working from screengrab images. Leaker Digital Chat Station claims that Apple is looking to eventually add multi-spectral camera systems, and one benefit of this would be for Visual Intelligence.Multi-spectral imaging captures image data across different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. All iPhone cameras to date have focused on the red, green, and blue (RGB) elements visible to the human eye. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

Testing for rumored 200MP iPhone camera may not have started yet
Following reports of Apple looking to include a 200MP camera in the iPhone in 2028, a leaker unsurprisingly says there's no prototype being tested yet.The rear cameras of a Pro-tier iPhoneThe most recent of multiple reports about Apple adding a 200MP camera to the iPhone, claimed that it will first appear in a 2028 iPhone. Now regular leaker Digital Chat Station has said on Weibo that Apple is not even at the prototype stage yet.That seems unsurprising given how far off a September 2028 launch is. It's also not startling that the leaker further says Apple's engineers are instead focused on developing the 48MP camera expected in the 2026 iPhone range.

CES 2026: The best Mac and iPhone accessories Apple fans need to see | Macworld
CES 2026: The best Mac and iPhone accessories Apple fans need to see
Macworld Every start of the year in Las Vegas, the tech world queues up for monorails, shuttles, and taxis for the opportunity to get a look at what’s on the horizon. CES isn’t just a trade show; it’s a launching pad for the tech community and sets the tone for what’s to come the rest of the year. And even though Apple doesn’t attend, there are lots of accessories and gadgets made just for iPhones and Macs. CES 2026 has the usual crazy stuff on show: smart cat food bowls that monitor your pet’s facial expressions, smart Lego bricks with lighs and sound, robot phones, and the usual array of smart appliances and robot servants. Trying not to be distracted by the AI robots, here are the best new Mac, iPhone, and iPad-friendly accessory products announced at this year’s CES. Aukey MagFusion DeskHive 5X Pro – Top-end compact charging cube Auckey Charging your Apple devices is regarded by many as a necessary chore, but not me—I love a new charger. Bear with me. Aukey wowed us last year with its MagFusion range, and its latest MagFusion DeskHive 5X Pro looks like it can consolidate most of your power needs into its 3.76 x 3.76 x 3.07 inch (9.6 x 9.6 x 7.8cm) integrated hub stand. The sleek, space-saving yet powerful 5-in-1 desktop charging station has integrated high-output wired charging, Qi2 25W wireless charging, intelligent cable management, and a real-time power display to monitor 200W of simultaneous output. It features four wired outputs, including two retractable 30-inch USB-C cables plus 140W PD 3.1 USB-C and USB-A ports. The Qi2 25W magnetic wireless charging pad can be angled between 0–65 degrees via its aluminum-alloy hinge. Aukey says the MagFusion DeskHive 5X Pro will be available in the second quarter of 2026 with an MSRP of $150. Aukey also showed off an upgraded Qi2 25W edition of its MagFusion Z Plus foldable 3-in-1 charger, and the MagFusion Reel 10000, a multifunctional Qi2 25W 10K wireless power bank featuring a retractable USB-C cable, adjustable wireless charging stand, and digital display for power and battery status. Satechi Thunderbolt 5 CubeDock – Mac mini-mimic dock with SSD enclosure Satechi Speaking of compact cubes, if you looked quickly at Satechi’s Thunderbolt 5 CubeDock with SSD Enclosure, you might have thought Apple had introduced a new M5 Mac mini. But no, this is an Apple-inspired docking station for your Mac. As any self-respecting Thunderbolt 5 docking station should offer, the CubeDock can deliver up to 120Gbps bandwidth, display support and 140W charging. On top of that, or rather inside the 5 x 5 x 2-inch shell, is an integrated NVMe SSD bay (PCIe 4×4) that supports up to 8TB at 6000MBps. The solid aluminum dock boasts a full complement of three Thunderbolt 5 downstream ports, plus 10Gbps USB-C and USB-A, UHS-II SD/microSD, and speedy 2.5Gb Ethernet. The 180W CubeDock can fast-charge a 16-inch MacBook Pro at 140W plus an iPhone or iPad at another 30W. It supports up to two 6K/60Hz external displays on M3/M4/M5 Macs. Satechi’s Thunderbolt 5 CubeDockTM is available for preorder on Satechi.net for $400 and will begin shipping this quarter. Satechi is offering 20 percent off all CES-launched products with code CES2026 on Satechi.net throughout January. While you’re at it, you can also grab a new Thunderbolt 5 Pro Cable made with reinforced aluminum housings and a premium braided jacket. ESR 25W MagSlim Magnetic Power Bank – Slimmest-ever 10K power bank ESR Wireless power banks keep getting faster and slimmer, and at CES, ESR introduced its new 10K MagSlim Power Bank, which it claims to be the thinnest Qi2 25W power bank on the market. Sleek and available in five colors, including one especially for the Cosmic Orange iPhone 17 Pro models. The 10K MagSlim measures 4 x 2.75 x 0.54 inches (10.2 x 7 x 1.38cm), with the standout number there being the last. Half an inch thick/thin is certainly the slimmest 10K magnetic power bank we’ve seen. It weighs 185g. And it’s fast: iPhones from the 16 and 17 series can wirelessly charge at up to 25W. Additionally, the spare USB-C port can deliver a 30W wired charge. Older iPhones will charge at a more pedestrian 15W. As with many products that wow us at CES, it won’t actually appear till much later in the year—in this case, ESR suggests it won’t ship until August. BMX SolidSafe Air Power Bank – Slimmest-ever 5K power bank BMX Another super-slim power bank introduced at CES is the 5K BMX SolidSafe Air power bank, which is just 0.68cm thin but still packs a kickstand and full-color LCD. It will be available in a range of titanium-copper colors to match the newest iPhones Pro models. It’s not at the fastest 25W level, but the Qi2 power bank will still wirelessly charge at 15W. It’s a semi-solid-state power bank, so it should last longer than standard liquid-electrolyte battery packs. The SolidSafe Air, also including 10K power banks, will become available in Q2 from BMX. As well as the SolidSafe Air, BMX also showcases GaNsta AI-powered GaN chargers and ByteSize micro SSDs. Anker 45W Nano Charger – Wall charger with 180° foldable plug prongs Anker A charger with a full LCD display? Sure, why not? The tiny 45W Anker Nano Charger boasts a smart interactive display that shows real-time charging status (charging power, temperature, and phone battery level) and an adorable little face. That’s all very useful, but what we love about this charger is its dual 70-degree or 180-degree foldable plug prongs, which means it should fit in any socket as it suits you, fitting tight wall socket spaces in the home or office (behind cupboards, or in bed corners and sofa gaps), while always showing its screen. In addition, the Nano Charger identifies your model of iPhone model to deliver up to 45W for a tailored charging solution, with an auto-matching three-stage power delivery. Anker claims the one-tap TÜV-certified Care Mode protects battery health by reducing phone battery temperature by 9°F compared to other 45W chargers during charging. At 45W, it’s even powerful enough to charge the MacBook Air. The Anker Nano Charger will be available later this month at an MSRP of $40. Anker is busy at CES 2026, premiering not just the Nano Charger but a foldable 3-in-1 Prime Wireless Charging Station, and a 10-in-1 Nano Power Strip with two USB-C ports, two USB-A ports, and six AC outlets for a clutter-free desk setup. Moreover, its Eufy smart-home spin-off is showing the Robot Vacuum Omni S2, Video Doorbell S4, and Smart Lock E40. Plugable TBT-UDH2 – First Thunderbolt 5 dock with dual HDMI 2.1 Plugable Plugable, the company already behind Macworld’s current best value Thunderbolt 5 dock, has another TB5 dock to shout about at CES 2026.: The new TBT-UDH2 Thunderbolt 5 Dock, which it claims is the only one to have dual HDMI 2.1 ports. The TBT-UDH2 is a 16-in-1 Thunderbolt 5 docking station that can lie flat or sit upright. It has just the one downstream Thunderbolt 5 port (140W), but an impressive five USB-C, one of which can output at up to 30W, as can the spare TB5 port. Legacy devices are supported with three USB-A ports. As we now see with most modern docking stations, networking is looking to the future with 2.5Gb Ethernet—backwards compatible with Gigabit Ethernet. The SD and microSD slots are both rated at UHS-II. The TBT-UDH2 is expected to launch in Q2 2026 in North America for $350. Ugreen NASync iDX6011 Pro – Adding Local AI to NAS Ugreen Best known for its chargers and docking stations, Ugreen made a big splash into the Network Assisted Storage market last year with its NASync range of NAS drives, which are more secure and more stable than standard external hard drives at a higher capacity and a lower long-term price point than Cloud storage. It may look like something from a data center, but it could be the new hub for all your home media. Announcing two new high-end models at CES 2026, the company is pushing its own implementation of on-device intelligence with the NASync iDX Series that uses local AI to help users search and interact with their files, quickly finding moments, faces, objects, documents, and memories. The AI can auto-organize photo libraries, enable offline AI chats, and transcribe or speedily summarize voice notes. The series also works with ChatGPT and DeepSeek. Both the iDX6011 and iDX6011 Pro boast dual-10GbE ports plus two 40Gbps Thunderbolt 4 ports for fast external storage and peripherals. Each aluminum-alloy unit supports up to six SATA drives and two NVMe SSDs, enabling total storage of 196TB, which should allow you oodles of archiving as well as easy-access media. Ugreen is already taking preorders with special pricing for the iDX6011 ($999 for 32GB) and the iDX6011 Pro ($1,599 for 64GB memory and a faster processor). Bluetti Elite 100 V2 Bio-Based Edition – Greening the power station Bluetti We’ve all heard about Green Power, and a portable power station is certainly cleaner than a gas-guzzling, deadly carbon monoxide-fuming generator. But the batteries themselves are something of an environmental conundrum, and that includes portable power stations that come in handy for camping, tailgates, and emergencies. Power station supremo Bluetti addresses this with its Bio-Based Elite 100 V2 Edition, which features the first chassis crafted from bio-circular plastics. Developed with Covestro, the ISCC PLUS-certified blend utilizes renewable agricultural residues that Bluetti claims will slash carbon emissions by 25 percent. And we certainly applaud that initiative. In terms of raw power, the Elite 100 V2 has a 1,024Wh battery capacity and a maximum 1,800W output to be shared by its 11 ports, including four AC sockets. Further green points are gained by its 1,000W solar input potential when hooked up to panels.

We might have just got our first sighting of the iPhone Fold screen | Macworld
We might have just got our first sighting of the iPhone Fold screen
Macworld It’s early January, and in the tech world that means one thing: The Consumer Electronics Show. At this time of year, tech companies, fans, and journalists converge on Las Vegas for a showcase of the very latest innovations, and in 2026, that surprisingly included a glimpse of Apple’s most highly anticipated new product. To be clear, Apple isn’t in attendance at the show. But rival Samsung, or more specifically its subsidiary Samsung Display, is in Las Vegas this week, and it just revealed a foldable screen that will be of great interest to Apple fans. As reported by the Samsung-focused news site SamMobile, the new offering is the company’s first crease-free foldable panel. Product managers had set up a comparison between the new screen and that of the (widely admired) Galaxy Z Fold 7, and from photography, it’s easy to see the difference that having no crease makes to the viewing experience. Samsung displayed it next to a standard foldable screen, and the difference is massive. This development is key to the progress of the foldables sector. If makers of folding phones are to achieve mainstream acceptance, they need to accomplish two things: to build a hinge that customers believe is pretty much indestructible, and to kill the crease. And it looks like Samsung Display just solved the second problem. Unsurprisingly, foldable products by other subsidiaries of Samsung Electronics will be in line to benefit from this development, and SamMobile notes that the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 8 is likely to use the new creaseless panel. But Samsung Display is also a major supplier to another company by the name of Apple Inc., and that could prove significant later this year. Apple has reportedly been working to eliminate the crease for its first folding iPhone, and judging by the looks of this prototype, its years of work have paid off. At long, long last, we’re expecting Apple to unveil its first foldable at some point in 2026. The iPhone Fold has been delayed for so long because Apple wants to get this product right on its first swing, which is where those two missions I mentioned earlier come in. The device’s hinge will be made of ultra-durable metallic glass marketed as LiquidMetal. And the screen will be crease-free thanks to the work of Samsung Display. There’s a decent chance, in other words, that visitors to this year’s CES–and you–have just seen the screen of the iPhone Fold.

Why UGREEN’s new iDX NAS is more than storage—and superior to the Cloud | Macworld
Why UGREEN’s new iDX NAS is more than storage—and superior to the Cloud
Macworld UGREEN’s presence at CES 2026 wasn’t just about adding another pair of NAS boxes to an already crowded market. With the introduction of the NASync iDX6011 and iDX6011 Pro, the company made a clear argument: network-attached storage is overdue for a rethink. In UGREEN’s vision, a NAS shouldn’t merely hold files—it should understand them, help you work with them, and do so without pushing your most personal data into the cloud. UGREEN Rethinking what a NAS is for Traditional NAS systems excel at one thing: storage. They back up data, share files across a network, and little else. As data volumes grow and workflows become more complex, that passive role feels increasingly limited. UGREEN’s new NASync iDX Series aims to change that dynamic by embedding intelligence directly into the device, turning local storage into something closer to an active data partner. Both the iDX6011 and iDX6011 Pro are built around Intel® Core™ Ultra processors and paired with up to 64GB of LPDDR5x memory. On paper, the specs are immediately attention-grabbing: dual 10GbE Ethernet ports capable of 20Gbps via aggregation, dual Thunderbolt™ 4 ports offering up to 40Gbps, and storage scalability up to 196TB through six SATA bays and two NVMe slots. This is clearly hardware designed not just for backups, but for demanding creative, professional, and multi-user environments. UGREEN Local AI, not Cloud dependence What truly sets the iDX Series apart, however, is UGREEN’s insistence on fully local AI. At a time when “AI features” often translate to cloud subscriptions and opaque data pipelines, UGREEN is taking a different approach. Its Local AI Engine runs entirely on the NAS itself, meaning files never need to leave the device to be analyzed, searched, or summarized. The most immediately useful expression of this is Universal Search. Instead of hunting through folders, users can describe what they’re looking for in natural language—an idea, a scene, or even a vague memory—and the system retrieves relevant files across documents, photos, videos, and app data. It’s a small shift in interface, but a big one in daily usability. UGREEN’s Uliya AI Chat builds on this foundation. Acting as an offline large language model, it allows users to ask questions about their stored content, summarize lengthy documents, or generate notes from local files. Because everything runs on-device, the experience is both fast and private, positioning the NAS as a personal knowledge base rather than a simple file server. Optionally you can access popular third-party cloud-based AI models such as ChatGPT and Gemini directly through your NAS. UGREEN Smarter media and documents For users with large photo and media libraries, the AI Album feature is likely to be a standout. The system can recognize faces, animals, objects, scenes, and text within images, automatically organizing and tagging content. Typing a phrase like “girl riding a bike” or “meeting notes on whiteboard” surfaces the right images instantly. Voice Memos extend similar intelligence to audio files, enabling on-device transcription, translation, and summarization—useful for meetings, interviews, or lectures. Behind the scenes, AI File Organization ensures that uploads don’t become a digital junk drawer. Files are automatically sorted by type, date, and name as soon as they’re added, keeping large libraries manageable without constant manual effort. Two models, two audiences UGREEN is careful to differentiate the two models in the lineup. The NASync iDX6011 uses an Intel® Core™ Ultra 5 125H processor and is available with either 32GB or 64GB of memory. It’s positioned for creators, families, and prosumers who want strong performance, intelligent organization, and private AI without venturing into workstation territory. The NASync iDX6011 Pro is aimed squarely at power users and studios. Powered by the more capable Intel® Core™ Ultra 7 255H and equipped with 64GB of memory as standard, it adds an OCuLink port for external GPU connectivity. This opens the door to GPU-accelerated AI workloads, rendering, and other compute-heavy tasks, effectively turning the NAS into a hybrid storage and processing hub. A built-in smart touch display provides at-a-glance visibility into system status, resource usage, and network activity. UGREEN Performance meets practical design UGREEN hasn’t ignored the fundamentals. Multiple RAID options, pro-grade encryption, real-time virus scanning, and granular permission controls underline a serious approach to security. The aluminum-alloy chassis, magnetic dust filter, and low-noise hydraulic fan result in a system that looks premium and runs quietly, even under load. A three-year warranty and five years of security updates add confidence for long-term deployment. UGREEN Pricing and the bigger picture Pre-orders are already open, with aggressive early pricing: the iDX6011 starts at $999 for the 32GB version and $1,199 for 64GB, while the iDX6011 Pro comes in at $1,559. A Kickstarter launch is planned for March. Taken together, the NASync iDX6011 and iDX6011 Pro feel less like incremental updates and more like a statement of intent. UGREEN is betting that the future of NAS lies not in bigger drives alone, but in smarter, privacy-first systems that actively help users understand and use their data. If that vision resonates, the iDX Series could mark a meaningful turning point for the category.

Apple Reportedly Exploring Multispectral Imaging for Future iPhones | MacRumors
Apple Reportedly Exploring Multispectral Imaging for Future iPhones
Apple is exploring multispectral imaging technology for future iPhone cameras that could improve Visual Intelligence, enhance material detection, and boost image processing, according to a new supply chain rumor out of China. In a post on Weibo, leaker Digital Chat Station said Apple is currently evaluating components related to multispectral imaging within the supply chain, but cautioned that formal testing has not yet begun, suggesting the technology remains at an exploratory stage. Multispectral imaging differs from traditional smartphone photography, which relies solely on standard red, green, and blue light. Instead, the technology captures image data across multiple, distinct wavelength bands, which can add sensitivity to near-infrared or other narrow spectral ranges. This could potentially allow cameras to detect information that is largely invisible to conventional sensors. If adopted in future iPhones, one potential advantage could be improved material and surface differentiation. By analysing how different materials reflect light across wavelengths, the iPhone's camera could more accurately distinguish skin, fabric, vegetation, or reflective surfaces, enabling cleaner subject recognition and more reliable portrait effects. In addition, multispectral data could also improve image processing overall, especially when shooting in mixed lighting environments. It could also theoretically improve Visual Intelligence and Apple's on-device machine learning, leading to better object recognition, scene understanding, and depth estimation. However, adding extra spectral sensitivity would likely require more complex sensor designs, which would surely increase costs and potentially have an impact on internal space constraints. This might be why Apple is reportedly still evaluating the technology, rather than actively testing it in prototypes. Either way, it's not something we should expect in an iPhone soon. In the same Weibo post, Digital Chat Station reiterated that the Main lens on iPhone 18 Pro models will feature a variable aperture, while the telephoto camera will have a larger aperture, but Apple has yet to begin prototyping 200-megapixel cameras for future iPhones.Tag: Digital Chat StationThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

200MP iPhone Camera Not Yet in Active Prototype Testing, Says Leaker | MacRumors
200MP iPhone Camera Not Yet in Active Prototype Testing, Says Leaker
Apple's adoption of a 200-megapixel camera for a future iPhone is still some ways off, according to a prominent supply chain leaker who says such a sensor is not currently part of Apple's active prototype testing. In a post on Weibo, Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station said that 200-megapixel camera sensors are being discussed in the supply chain, but they have not appeared in iPhone engineering prototypes undergoing real-world imaging tests. Instead, Apple's current camera development work is said to remain focused on refining 48-megapixel systems, as per previous reports. The leaker's comments follow a research note from Morgan Stanley this week that suggested Apple is working to bring a 200-megapixel camera to the iPhone as soon as 2028. Digital Chat Station's remarks don't rule out such a move – indeed, the leaker said last May that Apple was looking at future adoption – but they do indicate that engineering-stage development on the sensor has yet to begin. Samsung introduced a 200-megapixel rear camera on its Galaxy S23 Ultra in 2023, and the follow-up models also have one. With a 200-megapixel camera, an iPhone would be able to shoot photos with greater detail. The increased megapixel count would also result in higher-resolution photos, which can be cropped further and printed at larger sizes without a loss of image quality. However, Digital Chat Station says current Pro-series prototypes continue to test a 48-megapixel main camera with a variable aperture, alongside a 48-megapixel telephoto camera featuring a longer focal length and a larger aperture. The leaker says these changes will be introduced later this year in iPhone 18 Pro models, indicating Apple is continuing its emphasis on optical flexibility and low-light performance, rather than a jump in raw resolution. The leaker adds that 200-megapixel sensors – reportedly supplied by Samsung – are currently only at a material or component evaluation stage. This typically refers to early feasibility checks within the supply chain, rather than integration into complete iPhone prototypes. Digital Chat Station also notes that Apple has shown interest in "multispectral imaging technology", though testing has reportedly not yet begun. Multispectral imaging could theoretically enable improved material/object detection and image processing, but there is no suggestion that such features are anywhere close to shipping.Tag: Digital Chat StationThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

CES 2026: Philips Hue Line Get New SpatialAware Scenes, Hue Cameras Gain HomeKit Support | MacRumors
CES 2026: Philips Hue Line Get New SpatialAware Scenes, Hue Cameras Gain HomeKit Support
Lighting company Signify today announced a new SpatialAware scene feature that's coming to Philips Hue lights. SpatialAware scenes take into account the position of all of the Hue lights in a room, using an algorithm to distribute light in a more natural way. The savannah sunset scene with SpatialAware The SpatialAware feature analyzes the layout of each room in the home with Hue lights, and then lighting scenes are tailored to your personal space. Lighting is meant to feel more immersive and dynamic than before. The savannah sunset scene without SpatialAware Right now, when a Scene Gallery scene is activated, the different colors are randomly sent to different lights without the system knowing where those lights are positioned. SpatialAware allows color to be distributed more intentionally for a more natural look. A scene that's designed to mimic a sunset, for example, will set lamps on one side of the room to warm yellow tones to mimic the setting sun, while lamps on the other side are set to darker shades. SpatialAware requires the Hue Bridge Pro that came out last year, and it uses an iPhone or iPad camera to scan the room to figure out where each light is located. Scans can be updated with each new light that's added. SpatialAware will be accessible through the Scene Gallery, and it is an optional setting. At launch, SpatialAware will be compatible with around half of the light scenes available in the Scene Gallery, and it has been designed primarily for nature-based scenes like lake mist, mountain breeze, and savanna sunset. Along with SpatialAware, Signify is adding support for migrating multiple Hue bridges to a single Bridge Pro during the Bridge Pro setup process, and it is bringing Apple Home support to the Hue Secure camera line. The Hue Secure Camera, Hue Secure video doorbell, and Hue contact sensors will work with Apple Home in the future, and users will be able to stream live video in picture-in-picture mode on the Apple TV and get real-time alerts using the Apple Home app. The Hue AI assistant has been updated with the ability to create automations based on natural language user requests, such as "wake me up at 6:45 a.m. every day except on Saturdays," and AI support is expanding to additional languages like Dutch, German, and Spanish. Automations for lights and accessories are also now listed in the Rooms and Zones they control for easier adjustment, with options to rearrange content to put the most used automations front and center. The new Hue SpatialAware feature is launching in spring 2026, while Apple Home support is coming in the first quarter of 2026. Multi-bridge migration and AI assistant automations are available now.Tags: CES 2026, Philips HueThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

CES 2026: Google Brings Gemini AI Features to Google TV, Previewing What Apple TV Could Get | MacRumors
CES 2026: Google Brings Gemini AI Features to Google TV, Previewing What Apple TV Could Get
At CES 2026, Google announced some new Gemini features that it's bringing to Google TVs. Google TV is built into some TV sets and set-top boxes, and while it may not be immediately relevant to many Apple users, it does give us a look at what AI can do on a TV set. Gemini on Google TV will be able to answer queries with a "visually rich framework" that offers up imagery, videos, and real-time sports updates. A "Deep Dives" feature will give users narrated, interactive overviews of a topic that are simplified for the whole family. Users can search through their Google Photos Library using Gemini to find specific people or moments. It enables image editing on the TV, with options to apply artistic styles or generate cinematic slideshows. Nano Banana, Google's image generator, can reimagine personal photos or create original media right on the TV. Veo, Google's video generation tool, is also coming to Google TV. Google is also adding an option to use natural language to optimize TV settings, which is perhaps the most useful new feature that Gemini integration brings. Users can tell Gemini things like "the screen is too dim" or "I can't hear the dialogue" to make quick adjustments to picture and sound. According to Google, the Gemini features will be coming to TCL devices first, and other Google TV devices over the coming months. Apple is planning to use a version of Google Gemini for some of its upcoming AI features, including the smarter version of Siri. The next-generation version of the Apple TV is expected to get an A17 Pro chip, which is compatible with Apple Intelligence. With Apple adopting Gemini and Apple TVs soon becoming capable of new AI features, it's possible that some of the features that Google has announced for Google TV could be replicated on the ‌Apple TV‌. Apple could use ‌Apple Intelligence‌ and the new version of ‌Siri‌ to simplify controls, make better content suggestions, and more. The updated ‌Apple TV‌ and the new version of ‌Siri‌ could both come in spring 2026.Tag: CES 2026This article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

CES 2026: Intel Unveils 18A-Based Core Ultra Series 3 Chips Amid Rumors of Future Apple Partnership | MacRumors
CES 2026: Intel Unveils 18A-Based Core Ultra Series 3 Chips Amid Rumors of Future Apple Partnership
Intel introduced its latest processors at CES 2026, debuting the "Panther Lake" Intel Core Ultra Series 3. The chips are the most advanced manufactured in the U.S., according to Intel, and they are built on Intel's 18A process. 18A, or 18-angstrom, is the most advanced node Intel has designed to date, but Intel continues to trail TSMC. TSMC is developing Apple's next-generation 2nm chips, and they are expected to have higher transistor density and efficiency than Intel's 18A chips. Intel is developing several chips in the Ultra Series 3 line for both high-end and low-end laptops, with the top SKUs offering up to 16 CPU cores, 12 Xe cores (Intel's graphics architecture), and 50 NPU TOPS. Compared to prior-generation chips, Intel claims the Ultra Series 3 processors will bring up to 77 percent faster gaming performance, 60 percent better multithreaded performance, and up to 27 hours of battery life. Apple doesn't use Intel chips anymore, so the new Core Ultra Series 3 processors will be exclusive to PCs, but there are rumors that Intel could manufacture some Apple chips in the future. According to Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Intel will make lower-end M-series chips for Apple's Macs built on the 18A process, using Apple chip designs. Intel could begin shipping chips to Apple as soon as mid-2027. The first laptops powered by Intel Core Ultra Series 3 chips debuted at ‌CES 2026‌, with more coming throughout the first half of the year.Tags: CES 2026, IntelThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Today's video features new displays from LG, the latest Qi2.2 chargers, robots, and more. Subscribe to the MacRumors YouTube channel for more videos. LG announced multiple new TVs and displays at its CES 2026 event, and showed off some older tech. Last year's 32-inch UltraFine Evo 6K monitor was on display, and of all LG's displays, this one looks like it was made for macOS. Text is crisp, the scale is perfect, Thunderbolt 5 is supported, and the NanoIPS panel provides deeper blacks and better contrast than a standard IPS panel. There were a couple new gaming displays, including a 27-inch tandem OLED monitor with a 720Hz refresh rate, and a 52-inch 5K 240Hz display that LG says is the world's largest gaming monitor. LG also showed off new OLED TVs, microRGB TVs for improved color accuracy, and a frame TV option to match the Sony Frame TV. And of course all of the TVs have new AI features. At Pepcom, MCON had a $145 ultra portable gaming controller designed for the iPhone. It uses MagSafe to snap to the back of an ‌iPhone‌, and it includes full-size joysticks, tactile buttons, triggers, and fold-out grips. MCON actually showed off the controller last year, but now it's ready to ship out in late January. Aukey was showing off the MagFusion Ark, a modular wireless charger that supports 25W Qi2.2 charging. The Ark has a 6-in-1 design with a base that can charge up to three devices, plus three detachable power bank spheres for charging on the go. The $150 MagFusion DeskHive is an all-new charger from Aukey, featuring a 25W wireless charging puck for an ‌iPhone‌ plus two built-in retractable USB-C cables. It includes a digital display that shows real-time power output for each port, and a USB-C port that offers up to 140W charging. Both Aukey chargers are coming in the second quarter of 2026. AGIBOT debuted a humanoid robot that was walking around the show floor and interacting with attendees. InnAIO, a company that sells an AI voice cloning device, had a portrait featuring an AI version of Vincent van Gogh that talked to attendees. It was just one of many borderline creepy AI products that made an appearance. Ambient highlighted the $250 Dreamie, a bedside sleep companion that provides an alarm, a soft light for a sunrise wakeup, and audio soundscapes to listen to so you can ditch your phone at night. Tonies was showing off its next-generation box with improved sound quality, longer battery life, better connectivity, and a refreshed design. It's also more responsive and interactive. Satechi showed off the $400 Thunderbolt 5 CubeDock, which looks a lot like the Mac mini. It has multiple Thunderbolt 5 ports and everything else you could need, including an SSD enclosure that supports up to 8TB. Twelve South was at Pepcom to promote the $180 Valet, a Qi2 charger that also serves as a catchall tray. Aeroband was demonstrating its $429 wireless electric guitar, which has nine built-in tones, a built-in speaker, and multiple drum loops. Skylight introduced its Smart Calendar 2 with brightness improvements and new AI features. It can scan photos and import the info into the calendar, and you can also take pictures of what's in your fridge to add items to the meal section of the calendar.

Apple Tests Background Security Updates in iOS 26.3 and macOS Tahoe 26.3 | MacRumors
Apple Tests Background Security Updates in iOS 26.3 and macOS Tahoe 26.3
Apple is testing a Background Security Improvement feature that first rolled out in iOS 26.1, iPadOS 26.1, and macOS Tahoe 26.1. Developers and public beta testers who are running iOS 26.3, iPadOS 26.3, or ‌macOS Tahoe‌ 26.3 can install a new Background Security Improvement update for testing purposes. According to Apple, Background Security Improvements provide additional security protections between software updates for Safari, WebKit, and other system libraries. Background Security Improvements can be installed by going to the Privacy and Security section of the Settings app, scrolling down, and selecting the "Install" option. If Automatically Install is toggled on, Background Security Improvements will be automatically installed when they come out. Apple says that users who opt not to install the Background Security Improvements will receive the updates in a standard software update. Apple previously had a Rapid Security Response update feature for delivering security improvements, but it wasn't used often after it was introduced in iOS 16, and was ultimately phased out in favor of Background Security Improvements. At one point in 2023, there was a Rapid Security Response bug that prevented some websites from displaying properly. Apple warns that Background Security Updates can result in "rare instances of compatibility issues." Should that occur, the updates may be temporarily removed and enhanced in a subsequent software update.This article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

CES 2026: Snap-On Accessory Adds Touch Display to Your MacBook | MacRumors
CES 2026: Snap-On Accessory Adds Touch Display to Your MacBook
Apple has historically resisted the idea of touchscreen MacBooks, arguing that laptop PCs with the feature are unwieldy and far from ergonomic. But recent reports suggest Apple has changed its tune, and the company is now rumored to be developing a touchscreen MacBook Pro. In the meantime, startup Intricuit has been showcasing its own solution at CES 2026 that brings touchscreen to existing MacBooks with Apple silicon. The Magic Screen is a snap-on digitizer that aligns to your MacBook's display using the built-in magnets that let your Mac know when the lid is closed to trigger sleep mode. After connecting it via a single USB-C cable, the tempered glass layer supports the gamut of gestures we've come to associate with smartphones – tapping, swiping, and zooming with your fingers directly on the screen. In a nod to the iPad and Apple Pencil, the Magic Screen also comes with its own stylus that supports pressure sensitivity and stylus hover for drawing, writing, manipulating objects, and navigation. The company has shown off the touchscreen in action with apps like SketchUp, Miro, and Resolume Arena. It also supports iPhone Mirroring, allowing you to interact with iOS apps on your MacBook display with your fingers. The Magic Screen includes a built-in battery that Intricuit says works for up to 100 hours on a single charge, and it comes with a Folio Case that also folds into a stand that braces against the MacBook screen to reduce wobble. When removed from the MacBook display, the device also doubles as a standalone drawing tablet. As for Apple's plans, a report by industry analyst Ming-Chi Kuo suggests the company's first OLED MacBook Pro will feature a touchscreen display. Kuo made the remarks in September 2025, and the claim has since been corroborated by Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, who added that the touchscreen OLED MacBook Pro will retain a full trackpad and keyboard. According to Kuo, the OLED panel will use on-cell touch technology, which integrates the touch sensors directly into the display panel's top layer (the "cell") rather than requiring a separate, dedicated touch layer like the Magic Screen. The analyst added that the shift "appears to reflect Apple's long-term observation of iPad user behavior, indicating that in certain scenarios, touch controls can enhance both productivity and the overall user experience." M6 MacBook Pro: Release Date, Pricing, and What to Expect The reports suggest Apple is aiming to launch its first touchscreen MacBook Pro as soon as late 2026 or early 2027. Meanwhile, Intricuit says the Magic Screen is compatible with all MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models powered by Apple silicon, and that it will soon be available on Kickstarter, with shipping on track to begin in the first quarter of this year.

CES 2026: Aqara Launches U400 Smart Lock With HomeKit and Hands-Free UWB Unlocking | MacRumors
CES 2026: Aqara Launches U400 Smart Lock With HomeKit and Hands-Free UWB Unlocking
Smart home company Aqara today debuted its latest smart lock, the U400. The Aqara Smart Lock U400 incorporates ultra wideband (UWB) technology for more precise location-based tracking and automated door unlocking. There are few UWB smart locks on the market, but the technology uses the UWB chip in the iPhone to unlock the door right as you approach. There is no need to tap an ‌iPhone‌ on the lock with UWB, so the door can be unlocked entirely hands-free. We were able to test the lock ahead of its introduction at CES, and the UWB technology worked as advertised. Walking up to the U400 with ‌iPhone‌ tucked in a pocket triggered the lock to unlock, but only within a foot or two of the door. It's sensitive enough that Aqara added a customization option to allow the U400 only to unlock when approached from a set angle of arrival, such as left, right, or center. Setting a specific direction can avoid accidental unlocks when you're near the door, and UWB is sensitive enough to know what side of the door a person is on. The U400 works with the Apple Home Key feature, so it can also be unlocked via a card stored in the Wallet app. Home Key can be customized to unlock a door by holding your ‌iPhone‌ or Apple Watch near the lock, but UWB simplifies the process further and makes it more precise. There is no need for a PIN, tap, or authentication with the U400, and the ‌iPhone‌ or Apple Watch doesn't need to be explicitly tapped on the lock. Like prior Aqara locks, the U400 offers a wide range of options for access. It supports unlocking with a fingerprint through a fingerprint sensor, NFC, an included key, or an access code with the included keypad. One-time and time-specific codes can be given to guests, and the lock can be set to lock automatically after user-specified period of time. Since the lock can be unlocked automatically if you're near it, turning on the auto-lock ensures that it doesn't stay unlocked if it's activated accidentally. If you want to leave a door unlocked for a period of time or permanently, there is a dedicated Passage mode that can be set. Since it is Matter and Thread enabled, the U400 can be connected to HomeKit and accessed through the Home app. It can be used in automations alongside other smart home devices, and the lock can be controlled with Siri voice commands. It also works with the Aqara app, and can be connected to an Aqara hub. Since it supports Matter, an Aqara hub is not required for full functionality, but a Thread Border Router and Matter hub are needed. The Apple TV 4K and HomePod mini work as home hubs for the Apple ecosystem. Aqara says the U400 supports Aliro, so it is able to be unlocked with a smartphone regardless of operating system. It is also more secure than Bluetooth, because it uses time-of-flight signals instead of simply signal strength for unlocking, so there is no option for a relay attack. The U400 is powered by a 4,880 mAh battery that can be removed from the lock and charged via USB-C, and it is supposed to last for up to six months per charge. Several Aqara locks used replaceable batteries, so the rechargeable battery is a nice upgrade. Exterior components have IP65 water and dust resistance for outdoor use. Aqara is offering the U400 in Silver and Black. It is designed to replace a standard deadbolt, and it includes all of the necessary hardware for a swap. More information on the U400 can be found on Aqara's website.Tags: Aqara, CES 2026This article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

iPhone 17e Again Rumored to Feature Dynamic Island, A19 Chip | MacRumors
iPhone 17e Again Rumored to Feature Dynamic Island, A19 Chip
Apple's iPhone 17e will feature upgrades including a pill-shaped Dynamic Island cutout and a downclocked A19 chip, with mass production set to begin this month, claims a Chinese leaker. The current iPhone 16e features a "notch" at the top of the display, similar to the ‌iPhone‌ 13 and ‌iPhone‌ 14, and contains Apple's A18 chip with a 4-core GPU, instead of the 5-core GPU version found in the iPhone 16. However, according to "Smart Pikachu," a Weibo account that has previously shared accurate supply-chain details on Android hardware, these two elements are set to be replaced on the forthcoming iPhone 17e. Aside from Neural Engine improvements, performance from a downclocked A19 chip could be roughly comparable to Apple's A17 Pro chip, while the Dynamic Island would add the newer interactive area at the top of the screen that displays ongoing activities, incorporating the camera and other front-facing sensors. Otherwise, the ‌iPhone‌ 17e is expected to retain a 6.1-inch OLED display with a 60Hz refresh rate, according to the leaker. The leaker known as "Digital Chat Station" has previously claimed the iPhone 17e could have a Dynamic Island and an A19 chip, so the assertions made by Smart Pikachu aren't entirely new. However, another rumor has claimed the iPhone 17e will continue to use the same iPhone 14-based OLED panel as the iPhone 16e, but with slimmed down bezels. If that's the case, then the iPhone 17e will still feature a notch. Elsewhere, rumors suggest the iPhone 17e will gain a magnetic ring that will allow it to connect to MagSafe chargers, which is not an option with the iPhone 16e. To cut down on costs, the device may also be equipped with either the older C1 or C1X modem, but no N1 wireless chip, based on leaked Apple code. Smart Pikachu says mass production of the device will begin "after CES," suggesting commencement on or after January 9. The claim is broadly in line with reports that the iPhone 17e will launch in spring, possibly around a year after the launch of the iPhone 16e in February. The $599 starting price is not expected to change. Smart Pikachu has previously claimed Apple is testing under-display Face ID for the iPhone 18 Pro models, but so far the leaker's reputation for Apple rumors remains unproven.Related Roundup: iPhone 16eTag: Smart PikachuBuyer's Guide: iPhone 16e (Neutral)Related Forum: iPhoneThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

CES 2026: DeskMate MagSafe Charger Gives Your iPhone AI Personality | MacRumors
CES 2026: DeskMate MagSafe Charger Gives Your iPhone AI Personality
KEYi Tech, the company behind the Loona companion robot and ClicBot modular robot, is showing off a new take on AI assistants at CES 2026 called DeskMate, which is exclusively for iPhone. Rather than building another standalone robot, the company has gone with a desktop charging hub that turns an attached iPhone into an AI companion, using your device's existing display, camera, and microphone to bring it to life. Apart from three USB-C ports and one USB-A port, the device features a rotating and tilting MagSafe charging stand that tracks your presence and keeps the iPhone facing you at all times during conversations. It even displays cute Pixar-style animated eyes on the screen. The companion app automatically activates when you attach an iPhone to the charging pad. From here, the DeskMate is able to handle voice commands, manage your calendar, set reminders, and answer questions throughout the day. According to the company, DeskMate can also initiate conversations, offer suggestions, or provide updates when you return to your desk. The AI companion integrates with workplace tools including Slack, email, and calendar apps, and it can also join video meetings to take notes or provide summaries. The idea is that it learns your routines and preferences over time, adapting its responses and suggestions accordingly. KEYi Tech says it plans to launch a Kickstarter campaign in March for the device, which will be priced below $300, although the final costs are apparently still being finalized.

Foldable iPhone's Crease-Free Display Tech Spotted at CES 2026 | MacRumors
Foldable iPhone's Crease-Free Display Tech Spotted at CES 2026
CES 2026 has just provided a first glimpse of the folding display technology that Apple is expected to use in its upcoming foldable iPhone. At the event, Samsung Display briefly showcased its new crease-less foldable OLED panel beside a Galaxy Z Fold 7, and according to SamMobile, which saw the test booth before it was abruptly removed, the new panel "has no crease at all" in comparison. The existing display used in the Galaxy Z Fold 7 does an impressive job of reducing crease visibility, but crucially it can still be seen at certain viewing angles. In contrast, Samsung Display claims that the newer panel, destined for the Z Fold 8, offers "seamless text across the fold" whichever way you look at it – which is good news for Apple, given that Samsung is the company's main supplier of OLED technology. Apple supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said in July that Samsung's next-generation Galaxy Z Fold 8 will use the same laser-drilled metal display plate as the foldable iPhone, with the component to be supplied by South Korean company Fine M-Tec. The laser-drilled metal plate is responsible for dispersing the stress generated by bending, allowing for the "crease-free" screen. It's worth noting that the panel structure, lamination method, and material process used for the foldable iPhone is said to have been designed by Apple, so we should still expect differences compared to the Z Fold 8's display that was on show here. The same goes for the dimensions of the display that Apple uses. Samsung's existing Galaxy Z Fold 7 display is 6.5 inches when closed, and 8 inches when open, with a 21:9 aspect ratio when folded and a 20:18 aspect ratio when open. In contrast, rumors suggest the ‌iPhone‌ Fold's display will measure in at 5.3 to 5.5 inches when closed, and 7.5 to 7.8 inches when open (rumors vary). That will make it squatter and wider than Samsung's taller, narrower design, giving it a 4:3 aspect ratio when open. Samsung gave no reason for removing the test booth so early on at CES. Regardless, Apple's stricter crease-free requirements for its foldable iPhone appear to have raised the bar for both foldable devices. Whether those advances also translate into improved long-term durability should become clearer in the coming months. The Galaxy Z Fold is widely expected to launch this summer, while Apple's foldable iPhone is expected to enter mass production this year and launch later, around mid-September.Tags: CES 2026, Foldable iPhone, SamsungThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

CES 2026: Kwikset Launches $189 Aura Reach Smart Lock With Matter Integration | MacRumors
CES 2026: Kwikset Launches $189 Aura Reach Smart Lock With Matter Integration
Kwikset today announced the Aura Reach, a smart lock that offers Matter over Thread and Bluetooth connectivity. With Matter, the lock is able to connect to HomeKit, allowing it to be controlled through Apple Home or with Siri voice commands. The Aura Reach supports hands-free auto unlock, proximity keypad wakeup, and a guided installation process for easy setup. It is able to be activated alongside other ‌HomeKit‌ and Matter devices using automations in the Apple Home app. Users can set up temporary access codes for guests, track entry history, and get alerts if someone attempts to use an invalid code. The lock incorporates the Kwikset SmartKey Security, so it can be rekeyed in seconds. The lock is available in satin nickel and black color options. Unlike some of the higher-end smart locks that have been coming out at CES, the Aura Reach does not include UWB, nor does it work with Apple's Home Key feature. The Aura Reach is one of several Matter-enabled smart locks in Kwikset's lineup, including the Halo Select and Halo Select Plus. Compared to those locks, it lacks Wi-Fi, Home Key, and door sensing technology that's able to determine whether a door is open or closed. The Aura Reach is priced at $189 and is available from major retailers like Amazon starting today.Tag: CES 2026This article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

CES 2026: Samsung Announces Glasses-Free 6K 3D Odyssey G9 Gaming Monitor | MacRumors
CES 2026: Samsung Announces Glasses-Free 6K 3D Odyssey G9 Gaming Monitor
Samsung announced a refreshed Odyssey gaming display lineup for CES 2026, which includes five updated models with higher resolutions and refresh rates. The new 32-inch Odyssey G9 is a 6K 3D display that doesn't require glasses to see the 3D effect. Samsung says the monitor uses real-time eye tracking to adjust depth and perspective in response to the viewer's position, providing a layered sense of dimension with no need for a headset. The Odyssey G9 features a 165Hz refresh rate that's enhanced to 330Hz with Dual Mode, and 1ms gray-to-gray response time for minimal motion blur and ghosting. Samsung says that PC gamers will have access to an expanded lineup of supported titles with 3D effects created in collaboration with game studios, so it's unclear if the 3D functionality will be available for Macs. Either way, games will not natively support 3D functionality, and game designers will need to optimize their games for the technology. The first games that will offer support include The First Berserker: Khazan, Lies of P: Overture, and Stellar Blade. According to Samsung, gamers can expect added dimensionality that enhances terrain, distance, and object separation compared to standard 2D gameplay. Samsung's 27-inch Odyssey G6 display offers a 600Hz refresh rate enhanced to 1,040Hz through Dual Mode for competitive gaming. Players will be able to better track targets and see fine details during high-speed movement. The G6 is compatible with AMD FreeSync Premium and Nvidia G-Sync. There are also several new Odyssey G8 displays, including a 32-inch 6K model with a 165Hz refresh rate, a 27-inch 5K model with a 180Hz refresh rate, and a 32-inch OLED model with a 240Hz refresh rate. More information on Samsung's Odyssey display lineup can be found on the Samsung website.

CES 2026: Twelve South Unveils Valet Tray With Qi2 and Modular Design
Twelve South today announced a new Valet tray with Qi2-certified wireless charging that combines 15W magnetic charging with a leather-lined catch-all for everyday items. The Valet features Qi2 wireless charging, delivering up to 15W of power to compatible iPhone models and other Qi2 devices. It also includes a USB-C port capable of supplying up to 15W of power to a second device. It is concealed beneath the base of the tray to reduce visible cables. The Valet is powered via a USB-C port with a braided cable. The tray is built around a weighted zinc alloy base for stability and is wrapped in Nappa leather. The charging pad itself is raised slightly above the tray surface, creating a defined area for phone placement while leaving the surrounding space available for other personal items. Valet is available with black or taupe leather as standard, while the outer metal frame is removable and can be swapped independently of the main body, with options for black, taupe, brown, or ecru inserts. There is an integrated cable management system in the base, enabling the Valet to be oriented in four different configurations. This allows the wireless charging pad to be positioned on the left or right side of the tray, or the entire unit to be rotated into a portrait orientation for narrower surfaces. A small status light provides visual confirmation that a device has begun charging. The light briefly pulses when charging starts and then fades out after eight seconds. Valet is available for pre-order in the United States for $179.99, with launch scheduled for January 15, 2026. International availability is planned for later in 2026.Tags: CES 2026, Twelve SouthThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

iPadOS and macOS 26.2 Double 5GHz Wi-Fi Bandwidth for Wi-Fi 6E Devices | MacRumors
iPadOS and macOS 26.2 Double 5GHz Wi-Fi Bandwidth for Wi-Fi 6E Devices
With the release of iPadOS 26.2 and macOS Tahoe 26.2, Apple has improved the Wi-Fi speeds for select Macs and iPads that support Wi-Fi 6E. Updated Wi-Fi connectivity specifications are listed in Apple's platform deployment guide. The M4 iPad Pro models, M3 iPad Air models, A17 Pro iPad mini, M2 to M5 MacBook Pro models, ‌M2‌, M3, and M4 MacBook Air models, and other Wi-Fi 6E Macs and iPads now support 160MHz maximum channel bandwidth when connected to 5GHz Wi-Fi networks, the same theoretical maximum throughput supported by 6GHz networks. Previously, these devices were limited to 80MHz. In ideal conditions, a 160MHz maximum means that iPad and Mac users should see faster file transfers, quicker uploads, and smoother streaming. Wi-Fi 6E devices can take advantage of 6GHz networks, but 5GHz networks remain far more common. 6GHz networks require new router hardware, along with a machine that can take advantage of a 6GHz network. With the upgrade, Wi-Fi 6E devices that connect to a 5GHz network can get throughput approaching peak 6GHz speeds without having to connect to a 6GHz network. Users who have a Wi-Fi 6 or 6E setup that supports 160MHz on 5GHz networks will be able to take advantage of the bandwidth improvement. Macs that have the updated 160MHz bandwidth limit will not see improvements when connected to 5GHz routers limited to 80MHz. Though 5GHz bandwidth has improved on select Macs and iPads, 6GHz networks still have the benefit of less congestion and more spectrum.

CES 2026: Pioneer Announces First Aftermarket CarPlay Unit With Spatial Audio | MacRumors
CES 2026: Pioneer Announces First Aftermarket CarPlay Unit With Spatial Audio
Pioneer today announced a new in-dash receiver that supports Dolby Atmos audio playback within Apple CarPlay, extending the feature into the aftermarket category for the first time. Apple has supported Dolby Atmos and Spatial Audio across much of its ecosystem since 2021, including the iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, AirPods, HomePod, and Apple Music. In vehicles, however, Dolby Atmos playback through Apple ‌CarPlay‌ has depended on automakers integrating compatible audio hardware, resulting in availability being restricted to a relatively small number of high-end models. Pioneer's new SPHERA in-dash receiver makes Atmos-capable ‌CarPlay‌ available to a much broader base of drivers through aftermarket installation. The system uses a vehicle's existing speaker setup rather than requiring specialized or factory-installed Atmos hardware. The company says the receiver uses an optimized four-channel configuration that works with standard front and rear speakers, allowing spatial audio playback without additional height or ceiling-mounted speakers. Pioneer's proprietary Pure Autotuning technology is designed to address the acoustic variability of vehicle interiors, accounting for different sizes, shapes, materials, and speaker placements. It automatically adjusts time alignment, frequency response, and channel levels to place the listener at what Pioneer calls the acoustic center position. The receiver itself features a 10.1-inch HD capacitive touchscreen and supports wireless ‌CarPlay‌, wireless Android Auto, and Bluetooth connectivity. The interface includes a split-screen mode that allows navigation to remain visible while drivers access audio controls or system functions. SPHERA is designed for universal aftermarket installation and can be fitted to a wide variety of vehicles with minimal modification. Pioneer announced it at CES 2026 and said the receiver will be available starting in the spring, with pricing starting at $1,300.Tags: CES 2026, PioneerThis article, "" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

This is due to the 'paypal-submit.php' file not restricting what user roles a user can register with. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to supply the 'administrator' role during registration and gain administrator access to the site. 2025-11-27 9.8 CVE-2025-13675 https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/4750b57e-7d8d-49d7-bbbf-46483eb97bd9?source=cvehttps://themeforest.net/item/tiger-social-network-theme-for-companies-professionals/16203995 DirectoryThemes--Tiger The Tiger theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 101.2.1. This is due to the plugin allowing a user to update the user role through the $user- >set_role() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to elevate their privileges to that of an administrator. 2025-11-27 8.8 CVE-2025-13680 https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/645f60ad-c8e5-47ec-94f1-960de4ef7838?source=cvehttps://themeforest.net/item/tiger-social-network-theme-for-companies-professionals/16203995 Eaton--Eaton Galileo Software Improper input sanitization in the file archives upload functionality of Eaton Galileo software allows traversing paths which could lead into an attacker with local access to execute unauthorized code or commands. This security issue has been fixed in the latest version of Galileo which is available on the Eaton download center. 2025-11-27 7.3 CVE-2025-59890 https://www.eaton.com/content/dam/eaton/company/news-insights/cybersecurity/security-bulletins/etn-va-2025-1024.pdf Elated Themes--FindAll Listing The FindAll Listing plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.5. This is due to the 'findall_listing_user_registration_additional_params' function not restricting what user roles a user can register with. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to supply the 'administrator' role during registration and gain administrator access to the site. Note: The vulnerability can only be exploited if the FindAll Membership plugin is also activated, because user registration is in that plugin. 2025-11-27 9.8 CVE-2025-13538 https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/14981949-271c-4f98-a6a1-b00619f1436d?source=cvehttps://themeforest.net/item/findall-business-directory-theme/24415962 Elated Themes--FindAll Membership The FindAll Membership plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.4. This is due to the plugin not properly logging in a user with the data that was previously verified through the 'findall_membership_check_facebook_user' and the 'findall_membership_check_google_user' functions. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as administrative users, as long as they have an existing account on the site which can easily be created by default through the temp user functionality, and access to the administrative user's email. 2025-11-27 9.8 CVE-2025-13539 https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/a856a96a-68d2-462d-b523-840668980807?source=cvehttps://themeforest.net/item/findall-business-directory-theme/24415962 factionsecurity--faction FACTION is a PenTesting Report Generation and Collaboration Framework. Prior to version 1.7.1, an extension execution path in Faction's extension framework permits untrusted extension code to execute arbitrary system commands on the server when a lifecycle hook is invoked, resulting in remote code execution (RCE) on the host running Faction. Due to a missing authentication check on the /portal/AppStoreDashboard endpoint, an attacker can access the extension management UI and upload a malicious extension without any authentication, making this vulnerability exploitable by unauthenticated users. This issue has been patched in version 1.7.1. 2025-11-26 9.7 CVE-2025-66022 https://github.com/factionsecurity/faction/security/advisories/GHSA-xr72-2g43-586whttps://github.com/factionsecurity/faction/commit/c6389f1c76175b7c1c68d1a87b389311b16c62c3 fugue-project--fugue Fugue is a unified interface for distributed computing that lets users execute Python, Pandas, and SQL code on Spark, Dask, and Ray with minimal rewrites. In version 0.9.2 and prior, there is a remote code execution vulnerability by pickle deserialization via FlaskRPCServer. The Fugue framework implements an RPC server system for distributed computing operations. In the core functionality of the RPC server implementation, I found that the _decode() function in fugue/rpc/flask.py directly uses cloudpickle.loads() to deserialize data without any sanitization. This creates a remote code execution vulnerability when malicious pickle data is processed by the RPC server. The vulnerability exists in the RPC communication mechanism where the client can send arbitrary serialized Python objects that will be deserialized on the server side, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary code on the victim's machine. This issue has been patched via commit 6f25326. 2025-11-25 8.8 CVE-2025-62703 https://github.com/fugue-project/fugue/security/advisories/GHSA-xv5p-fjw5-vrj6https://github.com/fugue-project/fugue/commit/6f25326779fd1f528198098d6287c5a863176fc0 geoserver--geoserver GeoServer is an open source server that allows users to share and edit geospatial data. From version 2.26.0 to before 2.26.2 and before 2.25.6, an XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability was identified. The application accepts XML input through a specific endpoint /geoserver/wms operation GetMap. However, this input is not sufficiently sanitized or restricted, allowing an attacker to define external entities within the XML request. This issue has been patched in GeoServer 2.25.6, GeoServer 2.26.3, and GeoServer 2.27.0. 2025-11-25 8.2 CVE-2025-58360 https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/security/advisories/GHSA-fjf5-xgmq-5525https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOS-11682 GitLab--GitLab GitLab has remediated an issue in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions from 17.10 before 18.4.5, 18.5 before 18.5.3, and 18.6 before 18.6.1 that could have allowed an unauthenticated user to cause a Denial of Service condition by sending specifically crafted requests containing malicious JSON payloads. 2025-11-26 7.5 CVE-2025-12571 GitLab Issue #579168HackerOne Bug Bounty Report #3362239 GL-Inet--GL-AXT1800 A firmware downgrade vulnerability exists in the OTA Update functionality of GL-Inet GL-AXT1800 4.7.0. A specially crafted .tar file can lead to a firmware downgrade. An attacker can perform a man-in-the-middle attack to trigger this vulnerability. 2025-11-24 8.3 CVE-2025-44018 https://talosintelligence.com/vulnerability_reports/TALOS-2025-2230 HCL Software--iNotes HCL iNotes is susceptible to a Reflected Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability caused by improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can specially craft a URL to execute script in a victim's Web browser within the security context of the hosting Web site and/or steal the victim's cookie-based authentication credentials. 2025-11-25 8.1 CVE-2025-0248 https://support.hcl-software.com/csm?id=kb_article&sysparm_article=KB0127032 Huawei--HarmonyOS Permission control vulnerability in the memory management module.
