- 10:27 pmMagSafe Monday: This new hub is basically a Swiss Army knife for your iPhone or Mac
There has always been this tension with Apple’s devices. Some people want no ports, and some people want them all. I can argue both sides, but the trend is clearly moving toward fewer ports. Satechi’s new MagSafe 7-in-1 hub is one of the first accessories I have used that actually fills that gap in a smart way. It gives the iPhone some of the flexibility of a Mac without adding much clutter or complexity, but can also serve as a portable hub for your Mac as well. more…10:21 pmApple’s AI chief John Giannandrea to retire

We mentioned last week that in iOS 26.1, Apple changed how the Clock app icon’s seconds hand moves in low power mode. Instead of continuously moving, the seconds hand ticks with each second like a quartz clock. Analog faces on new Apple Watches have a similar behavior, using a sweeping seconds hand in active mode and a ticking seconds hand in always on mode. If you’re like me and prefer the quartz-like movement, there’s a workaround that can help. more…09:19 pmCyber Monday: Save on Apple Watch Series 11, Ultra 3, and more (from $129)

Macworld Been thinking about a new iPad? Unless you really have a need for a big screen, the iPad mini is one of our favorites. And the latest model, with A17 Pro and 128GB of storage, just dropped to its lowest price ever on Cyber Monday. Amazon is selling this iPad mini for just $349, which is $150 off the full retail price and much lower than we’ve ever seen it before. In fact, over the entire Black Friday weekend it was on sale for $399 (a price we have seen before). In our review we gave this iPad mini 4 stars, noting it was a big speed boost from the previous model and supported Apple Intelligence—but that was for a $500 tablet. At $349, it’s a no-brainer. BUY iPad mini at Amazon Best of all, you’re not stuck with the minimum configuration. If you want more storage or another color, you’ll find nearly every configuration is $150 off. So go grab one before Cyber Monday ends at midnight.06:35 pmApple Glasses could be next year’s most attention-grabbing product
