Jabees Peace Speaker review: an inexpensive way to listen to audio while you sleep
March 9 kicked off sleep awareness week, and Jabees has an interesting tool for soothing you to sleep — an under-pillow speaker.Jabees Peace Speaker reviewI have never, ever been what one would call "a good sleeper." Even as an infant, I had difficulty catching the required amount of sleep.I've tried everything. Different beds, different pillows, yoga, breathing techniques, supplements — you name it, I've probably tried it. I can't take sleep medications like zolpidem as I'm one of the "lucky few" who tend to experience a wide swath of adverse reactions to drugs. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

OpenAI wants the US government to legalize theft to reach the AI promised land
OpenAI may have already crawled the internet for all the world's data to train ChatGPT, but it seems that isn't enough as it wants protection from copyright holders to allow it to continue stealing everything that both is and isn't nailed down.OpenAI proposes freedom of intelligence in United States. Image source: ChatGPTThe latest manufactured goalpost OpenAI has set dubbed "AGI" can't be reached unless the company is free to do whatever it takes to steal everything good and turn it into AI slop. At least, that's what the latest OpenAI submission to the United States Government suggests.An OpenAI proposal submitted regarding President Trump's executive order on sustaining America's global dominance explains how the administration's boogeyman might overtake the US in the AI race.

AirPods to get live translation feature as part of iOS 19 update
Macworld According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, who has a great track record for this sort of information, Apple is planning to update AirPods to offer live translation later this year. The feature will come as part of iOS 19 and necessitate a firmware update for the AirPods, too. It’s unclear which AirPods models will work with the live translation feature. It is said that Apple is preparing AirPods Pro 3 for debut later this year, but that doesn’t mean it will be limited to that model. If you speak English and someone talks to you in French, for example, your AirPods would send the audio to your iPhone where the Translate app would translate it in real time and send the resulting audio back to your AirPods. This is similar to how rival earbuds have worked for years—Google Buds have offered this feature since 2017, for example. Gurman says that Apple is “bolstering the translation technology in iOS 19, beyond the new AirPods feature” without expounding further. It’s possible that Apple will make enhanced, on-device, real-time translation a fundamental feature of iOS that can be used in any app; translating YouTube or TikTok videos, for example. We expect to hear more about iOS 19’s translation features at WWDC in June. AirPods Pro 2 USB-C Read our review Price When Reviewed: $249 Best Prices Today: $228 at Amazon | $249 at Apple

Your existing AirPods could gain a new live translation feature in iOS 19
Apple's iconic AirPods are rumored to receive an entirely new feature that translates in-person conversations from one language to another.Apple is reportedly working on a new live translation feature for AirPods.The rumored live translation capability will make it significantly easier for speakers of two different languages to communicate. The feature is expected to roll out in 2025 alongside the iOS 19 and macOS 16 updates. Beyond that, both operating systems are said to feature major design changes.If an English speaker with AirPods is listening to a person speaking in another language, such as Spanish, the iPhone will detect the audio of the Spanish speaker and translate it into English. The English translation will then be played via the AirPods. Rumor Score: 🤯 Likely Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

Underwhelming performance of Apple Intelligence will hit iPhone sales, Kuo claims
Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo called the performance of Apple Intelligence "underwhelming," adding that it won't entice people to replace their older iPhones.The delays Apple Intelligence has faced might impact iPhone sales negatively.In a social media post on Thursday, Kuo reiterated his previous claims that Apple Intelligence would "contribute less than expected to shipment volumes." In October 2024, the analyst said more or less the same thing — that Apple's AI features would not facilitate a short-term boost in iPhone sales.According to Kuo, the market has recently adopted a more cautious view of Apple Intelligence, presumably because of the debacle Apple faced with its planned Siri upgrades. We can already see signs of this, as Morgan Stanley decreased their expectations for Apple's stock prices, citing concerns regarding the current status of Siri and its postponed Apple Intelligence overhaul.

'Something Is Rotten in the State of Cupertino'
Apple's announcement that "more personalized Siri" features of Apple Intelligence would be delayed until "the coming year" reveals a troubling departure from the company's hard-earned reputation for reliability, long-time commentator John Gruber writes. Unlike other Apple Intelligence features that were demonstrated to media in June, the personalized Siri features -- promising personal context awareness, onscreen awareness, and in-app actions -- were never shown working to anyone outside Apple. Yet Apple prominently featured these capabilities in the WWDC keynote and even created TV commercials (now pulled) touting these functions to sell iPhone 16. This represents a dangerous shift toward the pre-Jobs-return Apple that promised vaporware it couldn't deliver. Gruber writes. Apple has squandered its credibility, built meticulously over decades through consistently shipping what they promised, he writes. Gruber's post cites the following excerpt from a 2011 story: Apple doesn't often fail, and when it does, it isn't a pretty sight at 1 Infinite Loop. In the summer of 2008, when Apple launched the first version of its iPhone that worked on third-generation mobile networks, it also debuted MobileMe, an e-mail system that was supposed to provide the seamless synchronization features that corporate users love about their BlackBerry smartphones. MobileMe was a dud. Users complained about lost e-mails, and syncing was spotty at best. Though reviewers gushed over the new iPhone, they panned the MobileMe service. Steve Jobs doesn't tolerate duds. Shortly after the launch event, he summoned the MobileMe team, gathering them in the Town Hall auditorium in Building 4 of Apple's campus, the venue the company uses for intimate product unveilings for journalists. According to a participant in the meeting, Jobs walked in, clad in his trademark black mock turtleneck and blue jeans, clasped his hands together, and asked a simple question: "Can anyone tell me what MobileMe is supposed to do?" Having received a satisfactory answer, he continued, "So why the fuck doesn't it do that?" For the next half-hour Jobs berated the group. "You've tarnished Apple's reputation," he told them. "You should hate each other for having let each other down." The public humiliation particularly infuriated Jobs. Gruber adds: Tim Cook should have already held a meeting like that to address and rectify this Siri and Apple Intelligence debacle. If such a meeting hasn't yet occurred or doesn't happen soon, then, I fear, that's all she wrote. The ride is over. When mediocrity, excuses, and bullshit take root, they take over. A culture of excellence, accountability, and integrity cannot abide the acceptance of any of those things, and will quickly collapse upon itself with the acceptance of all three.

You may also find discounts on older models such as the discontinued iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max and iPhone 14 Pro.

You can purchase directly from Apple’s online store (there’s a separate U.K. store), which won’t give you savings, but does at least allow you to take advantage of trading in your old iPhone (see: How to sell or trade-in your old iPhone). We also have a complete guide to every iPhone Apple sells. Alternatively, Amazon U.K. regularly discounts iPhone models, so it’s well worth keeping an eye out there.

You can sign up here. Amazon U.S. doesn’t always sell iPhones, and when it does it is usually in conjunction with one of the carriers. Some times we see Amazon savings on SIM-free iPhones. Amazon tends to sell refurbished iPhones in the U.S. It’s worth checking the price of the iPhones in the following U.S. stores, which occasionally provide solid savings: Amazon Walmart Best Buy And U.K. readers should try these shops: Amazon U.K. Argos AO Currys John Lewis Carphone Warehouse KRCS In addition, we recommend you check out our automatically updated price tables, embedded below, which gather the best prices from a wide range of retailers in your region.

Here are links to browse the latest deals: Optimum Mobile Verizon AT&T T-Mobile Boost Infinite U.K. readers can browse contract deals using the tool embedded below. Click ‘Choose Smartphone’ to register which model you’re interested in.

Apple offers up to hundreds of dollars off your new iPhone when you trade in your old iPhone (but if your phone is older, you’ll likely get much less). You’ll have to select the trade-in option during purchase and answer a few questions about your existing phone model, storage capacity and condition. You’ll need to provide your IMEI number as well.

How to unlock an iPhone
Macworld If you’re thinking of moving to a new network, and want to keep hold of the same iPhone, you may hit a snag: the device is locked to your current carrier and can’t be used with any other company. Fortunately, you should be able to get your network provider to unlock the iPhone for you, and often they’ll do this for free. In fact, you might even be able to do it yourself. In this article we show how to unlock any iPhone model, either by yourself, with assistance from the network provider, or using a third-party service. Is iPhone unlocking legal? The days of being tied to a single carrier with a locked phone for months on end are all but over. Where we once were forced into 24-month contracts with devices that were useless on any other network, nowadays your wireless carrier must unlock your phone if you request it. Seriously, they do. It’s actually a law. The Unlocking Consumer Choice and Wireless Competition Act makes it so any phone purchased after 2015 will work with any carrier, so your provider can’t keep your phone tied to their network because they feel like it. However, there are some terms and conditions that you’ll need to follow before you can pop another SIM into your phone, and of course they vary by carrier. In some countries it’s actually illegal to sell locked handsets. In the U.K., for example, Ofcom banned such practices in 2021, although this didn’t affect devices already in circulation and there will still be a few locked phones out there. There have been rumors and rumblings of a similar ban in the U.S., but it hasn’t happened yet. Is my iPhone locked? If you bought an iPhone on contract, in the U.S. at least, then there’s a good chance that it’s locked and will need to be unlocked before you can use it with a different carrier. (Some carriers automatically unlock phones remotely after a certain period of time, so you might be lucky and find this has already happened.) This should have been made clear at the time of purchase, if not explicitly by the salesperson then more discreetly in the terms and conditions. The most common scenario where an iPhone would be locked without your knowledge is if you bought it second-hand or inherited it from a friend or family member. The previous owner may have bought the iPhone as part of a contract, and the network provider will have used software restrictions to tie the device to its service for the duration of the contract. If you want to check, try setting up the phone with a SIM from the ‘wrong’ carrier. This will generally trigger a message saying something like ‘SIM Not Supported.’ For more information, we have a separate article explaining how to tell if your iPhone is locked. Unlocking instructions for U.S. networks Before you can hook up your phone to a new network, you need to meet a series of requirements. First and foremost, it needs to be a legitimate device. That means it can’t have been reported as lost or stolen, or associated with any sort of illegal activity. Then your account will need to be free of any financial obligations. If you accepted a contract in exchange for a subsidized up-front cost, you’ll have to either wait until your contract is up (usually 24 months) or, if you bought your phone on a payment plan, pay the balance. Additionally, most carriers require accounts to have been active for a certain number of days before they will allow devices to be unlocked. For T-Mobile it’s 40 days, while AT&T and Verizon specify 60 days. And you might need to factory-reset your phone before the new network can be recognized, so make sure you’re backed up. Beyond that, the process varies slightly for each carrier. on Verizon Verizon has a set of surprisingly friendly unlocking policies that vary slightly for postpay and prepaid devices, but in both cases the company says the lock will be removed automatically 60 days after activation. No code is needed to open up your iPhone for use with another carrier. If you want to move to a new network, simply cancel your service and start a new plan with the carrier of your choice. There are only two exceptions to this. The first is when you buy a Verizon iPhone from a different company, in which case the lock period may be different: Verizon says you should “review the back of the box” to determine this. The second applies to military personnel, where a complication can arise if the iPhone owner receives deployment orders and applies to suspend the line. Check the linked article above for more details. on AT&T On its unlock page, AT&T says eligible iPhones that are “active on the AT&T network” should automatically unlock, provided you meet the unlock requirements. These are pretty standard: purchased more than 60 days ago; paid in full; not reported lost or stolen. If your iPhone is on an AT&T Prepaid plan or you’re not an AT&T customer (presumably this applies in the unusual event of an iPhone being bought from its owner within 60 days of the original purchase?), things are more complicated. You’ll need to submit an unlock request. Foundry on T-Mobile In the company’s unlock policy document, T-Mobile says it will automatically and remotely unlock your device once it becomes eligible, if it can do so. (Not sure if this has happened? Got to Settings > General > About. If the section labelled “Carrier Lock” or “Network Provider Lock” says “No SIM restrictions,” your iPhone is unlocked.) The eligibility requirements are the usual: device sold by T-Mobile, not reported as lost or stolen, paid off and account in good standing. The only complicating factor applies to prepaid accounts, which must either have been active for 365 days, or have had more than $100 in refills per line. If your device doesn’t support remote unlock, the company will send you a notification with instructions on completing the unlock process. If you haven’t received a notification, contact T-Mobile to seek clarification, or read its unlock explainer. on Boost Boost’s unlocking policy largely mirrors that of T-Mobile: it will automatically and remotely unlock your device when it becomes eligible, if that device supports remote unlocking. If this isn’t possible, you should get a notification informing you that an unlock is now available. Contact Boost on 833-50-BOOST (that’s 833-502-6678) to request an unlock. The company also offers special unlocks for members of the armed forces who have been deployed overseas and whose accounts are in good standing. Unlocking instructions for U.K. networks There are four simple steps to unlock an iPhone: Contact your provider and request an unlock using the contact details and online tools listed below. If you haven’t got the original SIM, you’ll need to reset the phone before it can be unlocked. Power down the phone, then replace the old SIM card with a SIM from a different network. Check that the iPhone is able to connect a phone call over the new network. That’s the short version, anyway. But let’s go through those steps in a bit more detail for each network. on EE EE has stated in the past that it will automatically unlock an iPhone 18 months after sale or dispatch. Considering that Ofcom banned handset locking more than 18 months ago, you should find that the device has unlocked itself by now. Should this not be the case, however, you can still request EE to unlock it, which it will do so free of charge. You’ll need the 15-digit IMEI number, which you can get by dialling *#06# or by looking on the packaging or on the device itself. (We’ve got a separate article on finding your IMEI.) Then you enter it into EE’s unlock page and go through a checking process. You should find any remaining information you need on EE’s How to complete the unlock process page. on Vodafone Vodafone states that all Apple products issued by the company are already unlocked. Should you find that for some reason this isn’t the case, you’ll need to get a network unlocking code (NUC) from Vodafone. (Note that the company cannot unlock phones purchased from a different provider or company. The device could be locked by the other provider, not Vodafone.) If you’re thinking of handing on your iPhone to someone else, and are worried that it might be locked to your account, you can use Vodafone’s online unlocking form to complete the process. The company claims it usually manages to unlock your device within 72 hours, but that in some cases it may be up to 10 days depending on the circumstances. The process is free. on Three Three keeps things nice and simple. On its website, the carrier states that any iPhone purchased from it after 1 January 2014 is automatically unlocked as soon as you connect it to Wi-Fi or Finder (or iTunes on older versions of macOS). It seems like a long shot that anyone would still be using iPhones from before that date; the page where Three used to host an online unlocking form no longer bothers to offer this, apparently on the assumption that it’s no longer needed. But if you are in that group, connecting the iPhone to Finder/iTunes and restoring it should unlock it. You’ll want to back up first. on O2 If you or the original owner purchased your iPhone from O2 after 1 August 2018, it should be unlocked already. Should you find you still can’t use another SIM with it, contact the company and ask for it to be unlocked. Call free on 202 from a pay monthly O2 phone, on 4445 from a pay-as-you-go phone, or use the Live Chat feature on the O2 site. Whichever method you use, be sure to have your IMEI ready. The whole process is explained clearly on the Unlocking an O2 mobile page of the company’s website. It will send a text to let you know when the iPhone is unlocked. You then just need to pop in the new SIM card and it should show as unlocked. on Tesco Mobile If you’ve been with Tesco Mobile for 12 months or more, or if you’ve completed your contract, you’ll be able to get an unlock code from Tesco for free by using the online form. on Giffgaff Giffgaff has a handy tool that helps you figure out how to free your iPhone from its own and other networks. It has the wonderful name of Unlockapedia and is well worth exploring. Using a third-party unlocking service An alternative to contacting your carrier and asking them to unlock the iPhone is to use a mobile phone unlocking service. Retailers in most areas will arrange an unlock code for a small fee. You can also find online services that will unlock your iPhone, but they aren’t always reputable and we would generally advise against it. If you do decide to use one, please make sure you read all the small print before you buy, because they can surprise you with extra bills at the end of the process. We’ve tried Doctor SIM, which promises to refund you if the unlock is unsuccessful, so that could be an option if you’ve tried all of the methods listed above. Doctor SIM successfully unlocked our phone with no problems and no hidden fees, so we feel confident in recommending them. How to tell if the unlock worked Once your phone has been unlocked you’ll receive a confirmation from the carrier. Now follow these steps: Turn off the phone: hold down the power button and either volume button, then swipe your finger across the screen as directed. Use the provided tool to eject the SIM card holder from your phone. Remove the old SIM card from the holder. Insert your new SIM, and return the card holder into the iPhone. Make a phone call, and check that the iPhone is able to connect over the new network. How to update an unlocked phone without the SIM card If you’ve requested an unlock from your carrier, but have not got the original SIM card, or if you have acquired a locked iPhone from someone else, you may need to reset the phone before it will be unlocked. Follow these steps to reset the iPhone: Back up your iPhone. Erase your iPhone. Open Settings and select General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Erase All Content and Settings. Complete the setup assistant and restore from your backup. The phone should now be unlocked. You can insert the new SIM card and it should work. And there we have it! Your iPhone should now be unlocked and free for use on any network. If you’re interested in repeating the process for your tablet, we’ve got a separate guide for those who wish to unlock an iPad. If you’re thinking of moving your old iPhone on to someone else, read how to sell your old iPhone for some tips on reselling it and getting the best deal.

How Phished Data Turns into Apple & Google Wallets
Carding -- the underground business of stealing, selling and swiping stolen payment card data -- has long been the dominion of Russia-based hackers.
