And I had a chance to review the standard iPhone 17. They did the thing! The screen is finally what it should be! Getting the standard phone no longer means losing out on key features www.theverge.com/tech/779568/...
The iPhone 17 is the one to get this year
Sage advice.

A fantastic debut Verge review from @toddhaselton.bsky.social on the iPhone Pro and its bold new look (and color) www.theverge.com/tech/779265/...
Apple’s iPhone 17 Pro is a bold redesign but a basic upgrade
Zest in class.

vee has already been writing some of my favorite stories on these topics www.theverge.com/analysis/756...
RFK Jr. wants a wearable on every American — that future’s not as healthy as he thinks

perhaps the single biggest upgrade: proper dust resistance on a foldable! www.theverge.com/hands-on/762...
The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold is the first fully dust-resistant foldable
Say hello to the first beach-ready foldable.

fitbit has a new ai coach that... might not be awful? maybe? www.theverge.com/hands-on/761...
Fitbit’s AI health coach is the first I might actually be interested in
It’s a ground-up overhaul of the Fitbit experience.

great piece from @haydenfield.bsky.social about where the gpt-5 launch went wrong www.theverge.com/openai/75975...
GPT-5 failed the hype test
That doesn’t mean it’s not the right bet for making money.

also in case you were wondering... even the openai guy thinks we're in an ai bubble www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...
Sam Altman says ‘yes,’ AI is in a bubble
Is the bubble about to burst?
