Watch Showdown: Series 12 vs Ultra 4—Value, Size, and Battery in Focus

The guide compares Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4, noting they share the S11 chip, 4GB RAM, 64GB storage, and a Health Sensing System with Readiness, Recovery HRV, and Sleep Score, so the Ultra 4’s higher price mainly buys durability and endurance. The Series 12 starts at $399 (titanium at $699, ceramic at $899, with Ultra at $799 baseline), while Ultra 4 emphasizes rugged construction, longer battery life, satellite communications, dual‑frequency GPS, greater water resistance for diving, and outdoor‑ready modes. Size and materials are significant trade‑offs: Ultra 4 is bulkier; Series 12 is lighter and more discreet with refined finishes. For most users, the Series 12 offers the same essential health features at a better value, while the Ultra 4 suits long outings and more demanding activities; try it on if you’re considering the larger, feature‑rich option. ”

The Original iPhone: Big Hype, Price That Turned Heads

CNET revisits the original 2007 iPhone review to highlight a device that was innovative and easy to use but lacked features, struggled on EDGE, and carried a $499 price (about $800 today) that many viewed as steep for a phone tied to an AT&T contract; the piece contrasts that hype and pricing with today’s buzz around the iPhone Duo’s rumored foldable design and its $2,000 starting price.

iPhone Duo: Foldable, Dual-Screen Camera Tricks, With Missing Pro Zoom

Apple’s iPhone Duo introduces a foldable, dual‑display design with new Camera app features (Smart Take, Duo Preview, Duo FaceTime) that leverage its form factor. It uses a 48MP main sensor with sensor‑shift OIS plus a 48MP ultra‑wide (no telephoto) and offers up to 2x optical zoom and up to 10x digital zoom, plus 4K Dolby Vision at up to 120fps and Cinematic mode up to 60fps (with post‑capture edits). The outer front camera is 12MP, while the inner display houses a 1080p FaceTime camera under the screen. Pro features such as telephoto, ProRAW/ProRes, and spatial photos are missing. The Duo supports built‑in tripod-style use in half‑folded mode and Duo FaceTime lets others join via the outer display. Pre‑orders start October 16, with launch October 23, pricing starting at $1,999.

Foldable iPhone Duo vs. iPhone 18 Pro: Which flagship should you buy?

MacRumors compares the iPhone 18 Pro/Pro Max with Apple’s new foldable iPhone Duo, noting they share the A20 Pro chip and many core features, but the Duo’s 7.6-inch folding display and Apple Pencil support come at the cost of weaker cameras, no LiDAR, and a higher price. The Pro models deliver a more versatile camera system, LiDAR, and better overall value for most users, while the Duo appeals to those who want a foldable screen and tablet-like tasks. Duo pre-orders open Oct 16 with an Oct 23 release.

Nothing Phone (4b) review: stylish mid-ranger with standout battery

At 329 euros, the Nothing Phone (4b) delivers a bold design, a large 6.77-inch 120 Hz AMOLED display and excellent battery life, but its value is undermined by only 128 GB storage in Germany (no microSD or eSIM), camera performance that lags in low light, slower Wi‑Fi, and a price that doesn’t outperform its own 4a sibling or other mid-range rivals.

AI Firms Bulk-Buy RTX 5090 GPUs for AI Servers, Pushing Prices Higher

AI firms are reportedly purchasing bulk GeForce RTX 5090 GPUs for AI server workloads, bypassing NVIDIA’s data-center accelerators; photos shared by HKEPC show pallets of new cards being readied for AI rigs, and retail prices have surged past $5,000—well above the $1,999 launch price. Some images may be edited, but the situation mirrors a crypto-era squeeze as AI demand climbs, with NVIDIA not stepping in to throttle or restrict the consumer card’s AI use.

iPhone Ultra: Gurman forecasts premium price, near-simultaneous launch and Android-wide edge

Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says Apple's iPhone Ultra foldable is likely to debut around $2,000–$2,500, possibly alongside the iPhone 18 Pro lineup, featuring a two-panel display and a hinge designed to minimize crease, MagSafe charging, and no telephoto zoom (and possibly no Face ID). Apple’s day-one advantage over Android hinges on optimized foldable apps and iPad-like multitasking, though trade-offs include the camera zoom gap and unlocking methods; launch timing and availability remain under discussion with expansion of the upgrade program to ease cost.
