Should you buy the Apple iPhone 15?

If Apple makes a phone meant for everyone, it’s the iPhone 15. There are flashier models in the lineup such as the Apple iPhone 15 Pro and Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max, and with the Apple iPhone 15 Plus Apple manages to get a little more screen real estate out of the design. But the iPhone 15 is the most affordable in the lineup, and it has a lot of great features that can be put to good use by anyone.

One of the top features of the Apple iPhone 15 is the 48-megapixel main camera, which was previously found only in iPhone 15 Pro models. New to the entire lineup is USB-C connectivity, which allows for fast charging, but also allows you to connect external drives and SD cards, which can come in handy if photography is a part of your daily iPhone usage.

The A16 Bionic processor tops off the feature set of the iPhone 15. It provides ample power for multitasking across apps and for keeping things up to date across your Apple software ecosystem. Apple software is is something that makes the iPhone one of the most popular smartphones in general, as it includes things like Apple Music, iCloud, Pages, and Photos, and everything syncs easily across all of your Apple devices.

One of the main draws of the Apple iPhone 15 right now is that it’s still Apple’s newest iPhone on the market and we aren’t that far into the product cycle. iPhones are typically end-of-the-year releases, so you’ve got some time before the next wave of iPhones come out. The internal hardware of the iPhone 15 is something to consider here as well. As evidenced by the continued success of the Apple iPhone 14, iPhones tend to be future-proof longer than many other smartphones, as Apple provides iPhones with plenty of power and software access to remain new in spirit for a few more generations of iPhones.

Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra: Everything we know about Samsung’s next flagship foldable
Though it will feature improvements across the board, the memory crisis might not spare Samsung’s Fold 8 Ultra.
Electronics, Speaker, White Board

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra is not the phone that reimagines what a foldable looks like. As that job falls to its sibling, the wider-screen Galaxy Z Fold 8, the Ultra could come as the direct successor to the Galaxy Z Fold 7, with the same tall, narrow design and the same book-style proportions, for the same audience. 

If you've used a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold in the past and think that the shape is perfect for you, the Fold 8 Ultra could be just the right phone for you. It has a redesigned inner display, a substantially larger battery, faster charging, and the new Flex Titanium technology designed to minimize the crease that has troubled Samsung's foldables for years.

Personal Intelligence in Search now connects to Google Calendar
Google Search AI can now read your Calendar and add events automatically
Google Calendar

Google is taking another step toward making Search feel less like a search engine and more like a personal assistant. The company has announced that AI Mode's Personal Intelligence can now connect directly to Google Calendar, allowing it not only to reference your schedule but also to create calendar events on your behalf.

Until now, Personal Intelligence mainly pulled information from apps like Gmail and Google Photos to provide more relevant responses. Calendar changes the equation because it becomes the first connected Google app that doesn't just provide context. It can actively act. The feature is rolling out now to users in the United States, with a wider international rollout planned later.
