On paper, Apple’s iPhone 17 Pro Max is a bigger swing than the annual “new chip, slightly better camera” refresh we’ve seen for the past few years. It sports a redesigned chassis that’s meant to both improve cooling and make room for a larger battery, a jump to the A19 Pro, a revamped camera setup and more. The question is, then, is it worth upgrading from the iPhone 15 Pro Max?  While we’re yet to go hands-on with Apple’s latest top-end iPhone, here’s how the iPhone 17 Pro Max compares to the iPhone 15 Pro Max on paper. We’ll be…

Amazon has quietly removed its recently launched feature, AI-generated video recaps, after it bungled key story details of the Fallout series on Prime Video. The feature was supposed to make catching up on the next season easier by analyzing plot points and turning them into a short video narrated by an AI voice. Instead, it got basic facts wrong, confusing both longtime fans and people just discovering the show. Where the AI recaps went wrong Fallout’s season one recap was where viewers first noticed something was off. The AI confidently claimed that one of The Ghoul’s flashbacks took place in…

Excel has always been my go-to for charts and graphs. It gets the job done, and for quick internal reports, Excel templates make complex tasks dead simple. There’s nothing wrong with a basic bar chart. But when I need something that doesn’t say “made in five minutes before presentation,” Excel’s limitations become obvious. Static charts with default formatting don’t exactly hold attention in presentations, nor do they look professional on a website. I’m not suggesting you ditch Excel, as it’s still unmatched for data manipulation. But for visualizations that need to impress, there are tools purpose-built for the task. These…

ZTE has introduced a new tablet in Europe, specifically in the Polish market for now – but it might spread to other countries as well soon. Meet the ZTE Pad X1102N. It comes with an 11-inch 1920×1200 LCD touchscreen with a 90Hz refresh rate, a 13 MP rear camera, a 5 MP front camera, and a 7,670 mAh battery with support for 21W wired charging. That battery size is anything but impressive today when mainstream smartphones regularly push above that capacity. Anyway, the Pad X1102N is powered by the Unisoc T8100 SoC, paired with 6GB of RAM and 256GB of…

Presented by Oracle NetSuiteWhen any company tells you it is their biggest product release in almost three decades, it’s worth listening. When the person saying it founded the world’s first cloud computing company, it’s time to take note. At SuiteWorld 2025, Evan Goldberg, founder and EVP of Oracle NetSuite, did just that when he called NetSuite Next the company’s biggest product evolution in nearly three decades. But behind that sweeping vision lies a quieter shift — one centered on how AI behaves, not just what it can do. “Every company is experimenting with AI,” says Brian Chess, SVP of Technology…

HIV was once a death sentence. Thanks to antiretroviral therapy, it’s now a chronic disease. But the daily treatment is for life. Without the drug, the virus rapidly rebounds.Scientists have long hunted for a more permanent solution. One option they’ve explored is a stem cell transplant using donor cells from people who are naturally resistant to the virus. A handful of patients have been “cured” this way, in that they could go off antiretroviral therapy without a resurgence in the virus for years. But the therapy is difficult, costly, and hardly scalable.Other methods are in the works. These include using…
