iPhone 16 vs iPhone 17: Why you may want to wait for Apple’s next big surprise in 2025

The games industry is caught in a tidal wave of negativity, and if you pay attention to social media, you may be forgiven for thinking the sky is falling. Sony posted a pretty positive financial report earlier this week, but the headlines that have come out of it run counter to that: PS5 declined 29 per cent year-over-year, is trending behind PS4 worldwide, and missed its revised forecast.

An unexpected rumour has surfaced this weekend regarding the possibility of a LEGO-themed Horizon game.

Apple hosted its Let Loose event earlier this week to announce its highly anticipated OLED iPad Pro models and the M2 iPad Air. Both iPads in the lineup have received their fair share of improvements but there are various reasons why the M2 iPad Air should be the one to get against the OLED model. While the OLED display on the 'Pro' models is something that users have been demanding for a while, the 'Air' will allow you to accomplish the same task but at a much lower price tag.
