Why you should buy the Apple iPhone 14 Plus

The iPhone 14 Plus was previously one of the best iPhones around for anyone seeking a more sizeable model. While the 15 and soon to be 16 model means it’s older, it still packs a punch where it counts. Our Apple iPhone 14 Plus review described it as “awkwardly brilliant” as it wasn’t quite as cheap as the iPhone 14 nor as powerful as the iPhone 14 Pro. However, now that it’s been discounted, it’s a much more tempting proposition.

The iPhone 14 Plus has a gorgeous 6.7-inch Super Retina XDR display with rounded corners, which mean it looks good in every way. Despite that, it’s lighter than the iPhone 14 Pro while still sporting a bigger display. The screen has HDR support along with True Tone, so it’s perfect for many different lighting situations, although it does lack a 120Hz refresh rate.

Another highlight is its camera system. It has a 12MP main camera along with 12MP wide-angle lens, and a 12MP selfie camera. They work well and provide good results with the iPhone’s software ensuring you can make a lot of great adjustments. Using the A15 Bionic processor means plenty of speedy performance too, whether gaming or multitasking. There’s also all-day battery life and up to 26 hours of video playback so the iPhone 14 Plus is a reliable option for iOS fans.

Attractive in many ways, the iPhone 14 Plus usually costs $730, but right now it’s available at Best Buy starting from $530 with $50 off the standard model if you want it sim-free. Check it out now and enjoy a slightly older iPhone for a bargain price.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 8: Everything we know about the upcoming clamshell folding phone
Of the three phones expected to arrive at Galaxy Unpacked, the Flip 8 is shaping up to be the most underwhelming.
Three Galaxy Z Flip 7 models next to each other

The Fold 8 Ultra could get a sharper display, a more powerful chipset, a new camera, and a larger battery. Samsung’s purported wider foldable, the Fold 8, is expected to solve the most common problem with tall-body, narrow cover screens by adopting a new aspect ratio. The Flip 8, on the other hand, could only debut with a new chip, and not a Snapdragon one. 

The Flip 7 wasn’t a bad clamshell by any measure. However, it's been one year, and the memory crisis has already hit the smartphone market hard. In a tricky cost-to-margin situation, the Flip 8 could end up getting a price hike without any major improvements, and that might not sit well with potential buyers.

Google Contacts borrows a handy iPhone trick to make sharing your number easier
google-contacts-app

Google is rolling out a small but useful update to the Contacts app on Android that makes it much easier to find and share your own contact details. Instead of digging through settings or creating a separate contact for yourself, you'll now see a dedicated 'Your Info' card at the very top of your contacts list.

The feature gives you quick access to your phone number, email addresses, and other personal details while also adding a faster way to share them with others. The update is arriving with Google Contacts version 4.83.13.940538822 and is rolling out widely (via 9to5Google).
