Macworld Ive never had a desire to buy a Vision Pro . Even if I had $4,000 to blow at the Apple Store, Id probably pick up a loaded MacBook Pro or a Mac mini with a Studio Display XDR instead of Apples cutting-edge handset. But Friday Night Baseball in Apple Immersive changed my perspective. The first-ever broadcast of a live Major League Baseball game with 3D video recorded in 8K with a 180-degree field of view, watching the Red Sox-Yankees game on the Vision Pro was almost as breathtaking as b

Macworld If Apple CEO Tim Cook retired on his 60th birthday, back in 2020, this article would be considerably easier to write. Wed start with the phenomenal strides made by the company under his watch: Profit and revenue doubled, the market value lifted from $350 billion to $2 trillion (the first U.S. company to hit that milestone). We could discuss the cultural impact made by the Apple Watch and AirPods, the canny pivot to services, and the regulatory storms navigated with deft tact. Ultimately

Macworld TL;DR: PDF Expert Premium for Mac is now $79.99 for a lifetime license (reg. $139.99), covering editing, signing, OCR, page management, and file conversions on your Mac with no monthly fee attached. Adobe moved Acrobat to a subscription model a while back, and it truly seems insane anyone would pay monthly for software that simple. PDF Expert is the one-time replacement that stops you from having to hunt down a free PDF editor or submit a subscription. The Premium Plan is a one-time $7

Macworld Apple may yet spring one final surprise of the Tim Cook era, with a new report raising hopes that the company plans to launch an updated version of the Mac mini as soon as the coming days. Writing for Bloomberg , well-connected leaker Mark Gurman says Apple is gearing up to unveil the first new Mac mini in almost two years. He bases this on the testimony of unnamed sources familiar with the matter. The last Mac mini model, announced on October 29, 2024, featured a major redesign (it was

Macworld The Mac mini remains one of Apples most compelling Macs, combining strong performance, a compact design, and an attractive starting price. Following its major redesign in late 2024, the desktop became smaller, faster, and more versatile than ever, featuring a dramatically reduced 5-by-5-inch footprint alongside Apples M4 and M4 Pro chips. If youre considering buying a Mac mini , you may be wondering whether a new model is on the horizon, what upgrades it could bring, and whether Apple w

Macworld The original iPhone was released on June 29, 2007. So next year, it will turn 20 years old, and rumors point to Apple commemorating the event with a special 20th-anniversary model. Its not expected to launch on June 29 (it will probably be in September, as usual), and it may not be a special one-off product, but rather the next major evolution of the iPhone, much like the iPhone X in 2017. But either way, the big two-oh is supposed to bring something really special. Heres what weve glea

Macworld On the first day of the WWDC developer conference, Apple released the first developer beta of its new operating system. This year, that means that the first release of iOS 27 outside Cupertino came on June 8, 2026. The pattern goes like this: Apple releases developer-only betas for the first month or so, and then starts releasing the same build for both developers and public beta testers. With only a month or less before the general release, most of the beta updates now are minor in sco

Macworld The ongoing memory crunch hit Apple customers much later than most tech fans, but when the price hikes arrived, they hit hard . Apple increased prices across its iPad and Mac ranges by anywhere from $100 to an eye-watering $1,300 in the case of the M3 Ultra Mac Studio. There was only one consolation: iPhone prices didnt increase at all. That latter state of affairs is not going to last for long, were sad to report. At the start of this month we covered a report by Mark Gurman in which t

Macworld It feels like forever since we started hearing rumors about Apples plans to make a more concerted effort in the smart home market. But now that the major component needed for such devices Siri AI is finally here, it appears that Apple has its new and updated smart home products on the release schedule. Bloombergs Mark Gurman reports that Apple is taking a major step towards releasing those products. The company is reconfiguring its Apple Stores to accommodate the updates to Apple TV and

Macworld Its happened to the best of us. The glass of water or a cup of coffee sitting beside our laptop is knocked over and the contents goes everywhere. If you are really unlucky that may be the end of the road for your Mac. But if you are prepared and know what to do to minimise the damage, you might manage to avoid the death of your Mac. If you spill water, coffee or another liquid into your MacBook or desktop Mac there are a few things you should do immediately to save your Apple tech from

Macworld A few weeks back, this site (and indeed this reporter) excitedly covered the news that Severance was back, baby . A cryptic tweet from showrunner Ben Stiller indicated that third-season shooting had begun, in the first bit of good news for fans since the brilliant second season ended on March 20 last year. But is the show really back? The problem is that shooting and post-production take a lot of time. Even if everything goes perfectly to plan, were looking at a third-season launch in f

Macworld Theres good news and bad news for customers waiting on Apples next update to the iMac range. Its happening soon, but its probably not going to be a big deal. In the Q&A section of his latest Power On newsletter , Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman responded to a reader asking when they would be able to buy the new iMac. If youve been holding out for a new iMac, your wait shouldnt be much longer, he reassured the reader. All signs point to the M6 models being close to launch, and you should

Macworld There was muted excitement in the Macworld offices late last month when Ben Stiller revealed that filming was about to begin on Severance season 3. Excitement, because the show is brilliant and it already feels like years (its actually a little less than one and a half) since season 2 finished. And muted, because theres still filming and post-production to get through and season 3 probably wont arrive until fall 2027 at the earliest. Fans of melancholy sci-fi are of course spoiled by Ap

Macworld According to reports, Apple is going to expand its presence in the wearable market with a new product: smart glasses. The Apple smart glasses that have been reported are a departure from the spatial computing platform of the Apple Vision Pro . They wont be a headset and they wont offer AR or spatial computing. They arent going to be a computing device in any way. Instead, they will be glasses like those from Meta AI and other companies. They will be designed like typical eyeglasses, not

Macworld With all eyes on the imminent iPhone and Apple Watch launches, Apple-watching pundits were surprised this week when the company itself accidentally leaked a video of some new camera-equipped AirPods in action. But if you think the existence of an instructional video means the product must be ready for launch, youre in for some bad news. According to the well-connected Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman , the leak changes nothing, and the devices still wont launch until 2027. The video appar
