And if you're not all that into bass-heavy audio, the JBL Portable app offers EQ customizations to fine-tune it to your taste.With extras like Bluetooth Multipoint, a powerbank to charge your devices, and wired listening options, the JBL Boombox 3 easily outperforms many other large-sized speakers on the market. Its battery life is spot-on as well, and you can get up to 24 hours of nonstop music.Overall, the JBL Boombox 3 is a fantastic choice for music lovers seeking a loud and bold sound.

Apple Watch Series 11 vs Series 10: expectations and what we know
Intro Every year, every 8,760 turns of the small hand of your watch, we get new models of Apple's popular smartwatches. One might argue that the wearables have long plateaued and there's little need for a new Series every 12 months. Apple seems to disagree. Whether Cupertino wants to keep the line fresh with new colors and finishes, or it's simply content with small step upgrades, Apple has shown us that it doesn't mind releasing a new Apple Watch every time there's a new iPhone coming out. We are now up to Series 10, and this September, we will no doubt get an Apple Watch Series 11. Most probably with a new chip, new colors, and in the familiar two sizes — 46 mm and 42 mm. So, what do we know so far, what do we expect, and will the Apple Watch Series 11 be a huge upgrade over the Series 10? Here we go: New 5G modem and S11 chip on Watch 11 High blood pressure detection on Watch 11 watchOS 26 with new looks to launch with Watch 11, but will come to Series 10, too Similar ~one-day battery life on either wearable Expanding Galaxy AI features to health features Table of Contents: Design and Sizes Bands Software Battery Models Voice and Haptics Specs Summary Would you believe it if we told you that there's very little information on the Apple Watch Series 11 out there right now? This could signify two possibilities. Either Apple is keeping things under very tight wraps... Or there isn't much to talk about. While the former is not improbable, it's pretty impossible in the year 2025. Everything has a penchant to leak, be it through supply chains or insider analysts with strong insider information. Something always comes out. But the Apple Watch Series 11 ? No mumblings thus far. So, our expectations for an updated look, or a circular shape are pretty much not there. At this point, we believe the design for the Apple Watch Series 11 will match the one of the Series 10, but with new colorways. Back before the Apple Watch Series 10 launched, there were rumors that Apple is planning a band latch redesign. Supposedly for reasons that would make it either sturdier or easier to switch bands. However, that change did not come to pass. Of course, once such rumor comes out, the fear of a redesign is ever-present. The one downside for users, if Apple were to change the latch, is that old Apple Watch bands may not fit the new design. Considering this is a lifestyle accessory, many people have amassed a serious collection of bands, so that'd be bad. But don't panic just yet — no word on a latch redesign has come down the grapevine right now. Software & Features The Apple Watch Series 11 ? Yep, it's on track to launch with watchOS 26 — not a typo, not a leap into the future. Apple's reportedly going all-in on a unified naming convention for its platforms, and that means jumping ahead to bring watchOS in sync with iOS, macOS, and the rest of the it's not just the number that's changing. At WWDC '25 we saw that watchOS 26 is coming with a fresh new look, borrowing heavily from the glassy, futuristic aesthetic of visionOS. Think translucency, depth, and that premium Apple polish we've seen creeping across platforms. It's a single Apple design language across all its platforms — watch, phone, Mac, headset… all speaking the same visual dialect. Health-wise, Series 11 is rumored to level up with a blood pressure monitoring feature—and it's not just about numbers. The system will reportedly ping you if it detects signs of hypertension, which could be a literal lifesaver. We didn't see anything about that in particular at WWDC, so Apple may be concealing a king in its hand. The Apple Watch Series 10 will get watchOS 26, of course, but we are not sure if it has the hardware needed for hypertension detection. Our guess would be no, but who knows — maybe Apple will surprise us. The last time Apple made a leap in the battery department of the Apple Watch was with the Series 7. Through incremental upgrades over the years, it had achieved a pretty good 18 hours of on time, which was cool, but the real big change was the introduction of fast charging, making it possible to top up the Apple Watch in less than an hour. Meaning, you can wear it through the night to track your sleep. Then, pluck it on a pad when doing your morning routine, and grab it just before you make that first cup of coffee — it should have enough charge to last you yet another day. Right now, in 2025, we absolutely wouldn't mind a nice upgrade to the 327 mAh cell inside an Apple Watch. Galaxy Watches are chasing a 30 to 40 hours endurance on a single charge, challenging the Apple Watch to up its game. Here's hoping that Cupertino is ready to pick up the gauntlet. We expect the Apple Watch Series 11 to be available in two sizes, 42 and 46mm ones. Each of these will be available in either GPS-only or GPS+cellular variant, with the connectivity here possibly getting upgraded from LTE to 5G on the upcoming models for better efficiency. On top of that, we should — again — get a choice between two types of materials. The Watch Series 10 can be either aluminum or titanium. With rumors about the iPhone 17 Pro shifting away from titanium, the same might happen with the Apple Watch — we'll see. As for prices, the future is shrouded in Schrodinger's tariffs. But let's assume, for now, that there will be no change and the Apple Watch Series 10 will start at $399 / $429 for the 42 mm / 46 mm models. Both smartwatches will let you make and take calls — as long as you go for the cellular model. Opt for the GPS-only version, and you can still chat away, but only if your iPhone is within arm's reach. So, freedom comes at a premium, as usual. Here's how the Apple Watch Series 11 vs Galaxy Watch 10 specs are likely going to look: By the looks of it, right now, the only big new thing about the Apple Watch Series 11 is going to be the new blood pressure sensor. And that is quite the technological undertaking we imagine. A niche of users, particularly those that really like the Apple Watch wellness monitoring suite, may feel inclined to upgrade, and that makes sense. It's an actual tangible upgrade and new feature, instead of yesteryear's temperature monitor that only works in certain conditions and use cases. Will there be anything else to make you open that wallet? Hold on, we are also waiting on new information.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but the iPad finally feels complete with iPadOS 26
WWDC'25, at least the intriguing opening keynote, is well behind us. iOS 26, iPadOS 26, watchOS 26, macOS 26, and visionOS 26 are all official (and now sharing the same naming scheme, too). We got to witness what the future holds for the iPhone, Apple Watch and the Mac in terms of software, and like it or not, it's all Liquid Glass. Judging from how long Apple relied on its previous modern and flat design language (well over a decade!), it becomes obvious that we are possibly getting at least ten years of this new glass-like design language. Congrats, everyone! While I'm still getting to grasp with this new Liquid Glass redesign, one round of updates that hit a specific device platform truly amazed me during yesterday's event. It seems that Apple finally decided it's high-time to take the iPad seriously and delivered a round of excellent updates to iPadOS 26 that finally feels like its potential could be realized. With proper window management courtesy of Stage Manager 2, the world's most popular line of tablets now finally gets a proper desktop environment that would feel instantly familiar to anyone who has ever used a mainstream personal computer. iPadOS 26 can now more or less be a capable MacBook replacement Resizable windows with the control buttons in the upper-left corner, the ability to freely place app windows wherever you want on the screen, and have them remember their size and positioning upon relaunch is an inherent aspect of regular desktop operating systems, and at the same time features that the iPad lacked. Until now, that is. But swipe down from the top edge of the tablet, and you're greeted by another interface element that is painfully familiar to macOS users––a menu bar with all the core functionalities of the apps you use, nested and neatly organized to provide quick and intuitive access to various features. There's even a quick and easy way to get to an app's dedicated settings page in the iPad's main Settings. The Files app has also been updated to display way more of your documents' details, and you can even resize the columns however it pleases you. Even the Mac's Expose view has been ported over! Yes, I can pinch you if it works for you, we are not collectively dreaming here. Over the years, many have lamented Apple's seeming inadequacy to make the iPad a device worthy of its potential. From a hardware standpoint, the iPad has been untouchable for years, packing some serious internals that not only blow away the competition, but also rival Apple's lower-tier MacBooks in terms of performance and capabilities. It looks and feels just like a proper desktop should The software, on the other hand, has been mostly lackluster, especially in the pre-iPadOS days. Back then, the iPad was a glorified large iPhone, and even Apple wasn't aware what to do with it and what direction its development should take. As soon as iPadOS branched out from iOS in 2019, we started seeing some notable additions to the software that definitely pushed the software further, strengthening the reason for existence of the whole category and culminating with this here iPadOS 26. Files now feels like… a pretty decent mobile alternative to the Mac's Finder One take that was continuously discussed in the Apple-centric sphere of the Internet prior, during, and after every major WWDC event was "Why wouldn't Apple just put macOS on the iPad?" . Well, it was always pretty obvious that you can't automagically transplant a desktop environment onto a portable device and expect it to deliver even a remotely good experience. After all, one is designed to be controlled with cursors and keys, while the other is a device you control with your fingers and occasionally a stylus; it was never going to work. iPadOS 26 is a better way of implementing the useful features of the Mac on a device you hold and use with your fingers, but add an external keyboard case, or a docking station with a keyboard and a mouse, and you get yourself a pretty decent and more compact MacBook alternative that's very close in terms of overall capabilities. Sure, we still can't run Mac apps on the iPad, but who knows, maybe Apple is entertaining the idea, and judging by the performance and the hardware potential of the iPad, we might eventually get proper third-party app support on the tablet. The verdict is in: iPadOS 26 is the closest we've been to having macOS on the iPad… … thus far!

Apple's most overdue accessory might finally get the upgrade it deserves
Apple's AirTag hasn't seen a hardware refresh since its debut in April 2021, but code uncovered in iOS 26 suggests that might finally change, and soon. We might be close to seeing the long-rumored AirTags 2, with two big upgrades that will make the little tracking accessory an even more powerful tool. According to a new report, snippets of iOS 26 code reference updates to how AirTags interact over Bluetooth, which could be hinting at new mechanisms that are not yet present in the current models. While the code does not explicitly name 'AirTags 2,' the changes suggest preparations are underway for a new generation of Apple's popular tracking are also mentions of new battery-related behavior. While it's unclear whether this refers to battery type or management, it supports speculation that Apple is targeting better power efficiency for the new model, which is one of the main areas where users have hoped to see improvements. This is what the screen looks like when Precision Finding is active on an iPhone. | Image credit — PhoneArena The big news here is that the next generation of the AirTag might come with an upgraded Ultra Wideband (UWB) chip, which could dramatically extend the range of Precision Finding. Precision Finding is the feature that allows you to pinpoint exactly where the lost AirTag is when you are in its minimum range, which is 98 feet. An arrow appears and dynamically turns towards where the AirTag. The report claims that with the new UWB tech, AirTags 2 could offer accurate directional tracking at distances of up to 295 feet. That's a game-changing difference, and it should tremendously help with finding stolen and forgotten items. Other rumored upgrades include a louder speaker for easier detection and refinements in pairing speed and location updates. However, there's no word yet on a redesign or change in shape. That means Apple may stick with its proven coin-style form factor, even as third-party Find My-compatible alternatives continue to explore more flexible formats like credit-card Apple didn't mention any new AirTag hardware during its WWDC 2025 keynote, the quiet breadcrumbs left in iOS 26 could be laying the groundwork for a launch later this year.
