Sure iPhone docks keep your Apple phone safe and charged, but if you’re really serious about protecting your iPhone , why not take it to the next level and protect yourself as well as your precious iPhone with the Armstar BodyGuard.

The armored Armstar BodyGuard offers a perfect, albeit somewhat scary — and no doubt costly mobile docking solution. Not only will the BodyGuard keep your phone scratch free and on your person during dangerous situations, it comes equipped with a built in stun gun, laser, and HD camera – perfect for tweeting while you pursue would-be-rioters. We imagine there’s nothing quite like robbing those of their civil liberties, updating your Facebook and Tweeting about it at the same time. On the flip side, defend against would be assailants in the same manner, just don’t break any laws please.

While there is no fixed priced attached to this Batman-like armguard/iPhone dock, if you’re truly interested in investing in an Armstar BodyGuard then head over to their site and request a quote.

Apple releases multiple iPhones every year, offering folks choice in terms of size and features. In 2024, the iPhone 15 lineup includes four distinct models.

The regular iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus are great for those who don’t need a telephoto lens and don’t care about the Action button or the 1TB of storage. But anyone who wants a more “pro” experience has the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max.

iPhone SE 4: news, rumored price, release date, and more

The Apple iPhone SE (2022) and Apple iPhone SE (2020) together.

While the spotlight always seems to be on Apple’s mainline iPhones, the iPhone SE is a great pick for those who are on a budget. If you want an iPhone that doesn't break the bank, the SE is the way to go.

The original iPhone SE came out in 2016, and then Apple revamped it in 2020 and 2022 by giving it some more modern hardware. The iPhone SE tends to get updated every two or so years rather than annually like the traditional iPhone. This means that we should see a new iPhone SE 4 this year, but it’s not so cut-and-dried with this particular model.

Here’s how Apple could change your iPhone forever

Over the past few months, Apple has released a steady stream of research papers detailing its work with generative AI. So far, Apple has been tight-lipped about what exactly is cooking in its research labs, while rumors circulate that Apple is in talks with Google to license its Gemini AI for iPhones.

But there have been a couple of teasers of what we can expect. In February, an Apple research paper detailed an open-source model called MLLM-Guided Image Editing (MGIE) that is capable of media editing using natural language instructions from users. Now, another research paper on Ferret UI has sent the AI community into a frenzy.
