iPadOS 27 brings a smarter Siri, permanent Menu Bar, and iPhone app resizing to your iPad

iPadOS 26 was Apple’s most ambitious iPad update in years. It was a sweeping productivity overhaul that redesigned multitasking and made the iPad feel closer to a laptop replacement.  iPadOS 27, announced at WWDC 2026, takes a different approach.

It roared back with a well-received remake of a beloved second entry in 2024’s Silent Hill 2, saw a proper sequel that served as a reinvention of sorts with last year’s Silent Hill f, and now it’s making the jump to first-person in Silent Hill: Townfall. As a fan of developer Screen Burn’s (formerly known as No Code) last released game, the sci-fi horror adventure Observation, I’ve been itching to see how it would handle Konami’s most frightening franchise. After…

AirPods are finally getting a custom EQ to tune the listening experience

As much as I will never forgive Apple for killing the headphone jack on phones, I love my AirPods. The AirPods Pro 2 are the best pair of wireless earbuds I have ever owned. From the balanced audio quality to long battery life to seamless connectivity to exceptional noise cancellation, AirPods get everything right. However, there was one missing feature holding AirPods back. Unlike most earbuds that give you a way to tune your own sound profile, with AirPods, you get what you get. So, if you love the bass to be a bit too heavy, you were in luck.…

Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S26 FE may finally be getting the glow-up fans have been asking for. Newly leaked renders and details suggest the company’s next Fan Edition phone could deliver a far more polished flagship-like design instead of feeling like a collection of leftover premium parts stitched together into a cheaper device. According to recent spotting on the WPC website by 9to5Google, the Galaxy S26 FE is expected to closely resemble Samsung’s main Galaxy S26 lineup, adopting slimmer bezels, a cleaner chassis, and a noticeably more premium overall appearance. While previous FE models often delivered strong specifications for the price,…

Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy Preview – Charting A New Course

Rats, exceptional emotional storytelling, tense stealth, and more rats: these are the elements that come to mind when I think of A Plague Tale. Watching the young protagonists Amicia and Hugo de Rune endure unimaginable hardships to combat a supernatural rat scourge in A Plague Tale: Innocence in 2019 and its 2022 sequel, A Plague Tale: Requiem, captivated me, and the series has become one of my favorites of the modern era. Although Requiem’s conclusion left some tantalizing narrative possibilities for the future, I doubt anyone expected a follow-up would take players to the past and center on that game’s…
