If you’re a Mac power user, or someone who likes to push their iPhone with great apps, you must have come across Setapp. Launched by MacPaw, it’s a platform where you get access to over 200 macOS and iOS apps that are available as a subscription bundle. Think of it as a Netflix for apps, where you can get apps with a Setapp membership. Why does it matter? Now, the company is changing those plans. Setapp will now let you purchase individual apps as a one-time purchase, or even get a select bunch of them with a recurring subscription. “To…
Apple just refreshed the Studio Display. It carries the same gorgeous 27-inch 5K screen, same $1,599 price tag, but a handful of changes that’ll either excite you or make you squint at the press release wondering what took so long. Let’s start with what didn’t move. The panel is identical; 5120 x 2880 at 218 pixels per inch, 600 nits, P3 wide color, True Tone. And yes, it still supports 60Hz refresh rate — that looks more like a deliberate choice than a technical limitation. Nano-texture glass is still an optional add-on if your office lighting situation is genuinely terrible.…
Apple’s product blitz shows no signs of slowing down. After unveiling the iPhone 17e and a refreshed iPad Air, the company has now lifted the covers off new MacBook Pro models powered by its M5 Pro and M5 Max chips. The latest 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro variants are built to raise the ceiling for performance, particularly in AI-heavy and graphics-intensive workflows. Apple says the M5 Pro and M5 Max feature its fastest CPU cores to date, paired with a redesigned GPU architecture focused on higher throughput and better efficiency. Each GPU core now includes enhanced neural acceleration, allowing complex…
Apple’s MacBook Air has always been the laptop for everyone: students, creatives, and people who want something that works without drama.

SpaceX is targeting this month for the 12th launch of its gargantuan Starship rocket, which comprises the first-stage Super Heavy booster and upper-stage Ship. While much has rested on each and every one of its previous 11 test flights, the first of which took place in April 2023, the next launch is a big deal for the Elon Musk-led spaceflight company. That’s because the mission involves a new version of the rocket, with its design based closely on the one that’s destined for future flights to the moon and possibly even Mars. Version 3 of Starship incorporates structural refinements, more…
I adored Blue Prince, an indie puzzle game that was one of 2025’s biggest surprises. I played it on the Steam Deck, and thanks to a TV dock I have, I was able to cast it to the television in my living room to play alongside my partner. It was a great workaround at the time, because all I really wanted to do was play the game on my Switch, but it wasn’t available on the platform yet. However, today’s Indie World Showcase turned that around; Blue Prince is coming to Switch 2 later today. The indie game tasks players with…
Apple has made a meaningful change to its MacBook Pro lineup with the launch of the new M5 Pro and M5 Max models. While most of the spotlight is understandably on the performance gains delivered by the more powerful chips, the company has also updated the base storage across the range. The higher-end M5 Pro and M5 Max configurations now ship with more internal storage, with the M5 Pro models starting at 1TB and the M5 Max models beginning at 2TB. More notably, the company has quietly extended that same shift to the standard M5 model, raising its base storage…
Nirvanna The Band The Show The Movie is not a video game movie. It’s not based on a video game property, or even features video games in its plot in a primary way. But from its opening moments, it’s clear that its creators and its director, Matt Johnson, are video game fans, and specifically fans of 16-bit RPGs. Johnson and his creative partner, Jay McCarrol, are also the creators of the viral Wii Shop Update Day video where they run down an impressive list of classic video game titles set to the tune of the Wii’s Shop Channel music. We spoke…
Microsoft has revealed its list of March 2026 titles for Xbox Game Pass, and this one feels unusually stacked. Amongst other titles, the lineup includes Cyberpunk 2077, EA Sports F1 25, and Hollow Knight: Silksong, three highly acclaimed games across wildly different genres. This isn’t a quiet content refresh. It’s a momentum play. Game Pass has always leaned on variety, but March’s opening wave signals something sharper: recognisable, conversation-driving titles landing at once. For subscribers, that translates into immediate installs instead of “maybe later” downloads. Three big wins, three different audiences Starting with Cyberpunk 2077, what was once one of…
