Few haircare brands have changed my beauty routine like Dyson has. The Dyson Airwrap is the only hair tool my less-than-nimble hands can maneuver to create bouncy curls, while the Dyson Supersonic Nural blow dryer gives me silky smooth, shiny strands in minutes, without the added heat damage. Just when I thought the cult-favorite brand had reached the height of at-home hair styling technology, Dyson outdid themselves again with the release of its newest blow dryer, the Dyson Supersonic r.
Dyson's blow dryers have long been hailed as some of the very best on the market, but the latest addition to the brand's lineup is unlike any of its predecessors. In fact, the Dyson Supersonic r is the first and only hair tool from the brand to bring salon-level styling to consumers at home.
The tool, which was previously only available to licensed pros, uses a revolutionary new ergonomic format—its "r" shape—to offer the most precise styling possible. Coming in at 20 percent lighter and 30 percent smaller than Dyson's other styling tools, the Supersonic r has three precise airflow settings and four heat modes all within a thumb's reach. After each blow-drying session, you'll achieve a salon-quality finish thanks to its ultra-precise heat and airflow.
The launch stands out from the rest of the Supersonic lineup even further with its new streamlined heater, the Dyson Hyperdymium™ motor, which allows for more even heating and less (if any) heat damage. Then there's the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) sensors in each attachment. These chips communicate from the attachment to the machine and then automatically adjust the temperature and airflow to best suit that attachment. What's more, the attachments remember your preferred settings, saving you time when you turn your dryer on next.
You can shop the Dyson Supersonic r blow dryer in a luxe Ceramic Pink colorway, a new entry for the brand. You can have your pick from attachments, too, including a pro concentrator for focused airflow, a powerful air attachment for quick styling, a wide-tooth comb attachment for tighter curls and coils, and a diffuser to define textured hair. With a price tag of $570, it's the most expensive product of Dyson's lineup of blow dryers, but considering it brings the kind of shiny styles you would only receive at the salon, I'd say it's well worth the investment.
The Dyson Supersonic r will be available to shop exclusively on Dyson.com on March 6.

Apple reportedly ditching its OS naming system for something more... confusing?
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Quick Summary Apple is set to rip up the copybook when it comes to the names of its new OS updates. Industry sources claim the next iOS will be called iOS 26. Apple's other operating systems will follow suit, it is said. If you own an Apple device you'll likely be au fait with the company's OS naming system. We're currently on variants of iOS 18, iPadOS 18, tvOS 18, etc, and iOS 19 and we're fully expecting iOS 19 and its equivalents to be announced during WWDC in a couple of weeks. However, it turns out we could be very wrong. It is claimed that Apple is set to shake-up the naming convention for the software coming to its best iPhones and other devices. And rather than simplify things, it could be more baffling than ever. Bloomberg's resident Apple expert, Mark Gurman, has reported that Apple will switch to yearly identifiers from this year's OS updates. However, much like EA does with its annual EA Sports games, it'll opt for the forthcoming year, not the current one. According to "people with knowledge of the matter", that means we'll get iOS 26, iPadOS 26, macOS 26, watchOS 26, tvOS 26 and visionOS 26 this year, while next year will see iOS 27 release, and so on. The software will be the same as the rumoured iOS 19, etc, but the name will be different. Of course, once we get into the swing of it, it'll make sense. And we get why Apple would want to use the proceeding year rather than current one, considering each OS is likely to release towards the end of 2025 (in September). However, it could make it particularly confusing when scanning through app compatibility, for example. The jump from 19 to 26 leaves quite a gap for the uninitiated. It's also been pointed out just how Samsung this all seems. Samsung has, since 2020, named its flagship Android phones after years – although as they launch in February or March, they use the current date. The Samsung Galaxy S25 family is the latest, therefore. It doesn't do so with its software though, with One UI 8 (based on Android 16) set to be its next big phone OS release. We'll find out more about the new naming structure on 9 June during during Apple's WWDC 25 opening keynote (or should that be 26?).

Apple teases iOS redesign in WWDC 25 clip
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Quick Summary Apple's changes to iOS may be clearer after a new tease. We're expecting something inspired by the Apple Vision Pro. It's a jubilant time of year of year for Apple fans. The brand will be hosting its annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) on Monday 9th June. That event has historically played host to a wide range of new software and operating system-based goodies. The brand often utilises its opening keynote speech as a platform to introduce new software for every part of its portfolio. All of the rumours and leaks so far have pointed to a new design, which will take on the glass-like aesthetic seen in the Apple Vision Pro's VisionOS. And the latest teaser from the brand seems to support that theory. The WWDC website has been changed to offer a new tagline. That reads 'Sleek Peak' and is topped by an Apple logo which appears to be made from frosted glass. It should be an exciting update. Everything in the in the Apple catalogue from the Apple Watch to the iPad and the iPhone to the Mac is expected to receive the update, and we'd expect them all to make use of this theme in some way. I think that's a much needed update. The brand has always been known for sleek, classy and minimal designs, and this embodies that perfectly. Keeping the design consistent across all of its products would also help to tie the entire ecosystem together a little more. It's not the only big change expected either. Earlier rumours suggested that the brand is set to change the numbering convention of its software, to better align with the year. That means that we'll see all of the various operating systems released as xOS 26 this time out. There's not too much else to go on right now – Apple has always been pretty good at keeping things under wraps. Still, with less than a week to go before the show takes place, there's not much longer to wait for the news direct from the source.

Your iPhone might not get iOS 26 – here are the models affected
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Quick Summary iOS 26 is coming as part of WWDC – but your iPhone may not be supported. And it's not just the phones being affected, either. With WWDC taking place next week, all eyes will be firmly on Apple as it debuts a range of new products and services. The show is normally used to showcase its next generation of software and operating systems for various devices. Naturally, the new iPhone operating system is set to be one of the most popular. With more and more people using one variant or another, there will be millions waiting to see what's on offer. Still, while some are excited about the new features coming to their handset, others will be waiting with baited breath to see if their device is still supported. Apple often makes certain models obsolete with new OS releases, though there's no real rhyme or reason to it. Now, a new report suggests that three iPhones could miss out on the iOS 26 software. Those are the iPhone XS, the iPhone XS Max and the iPhone XR. Those handsets were released back in 2018, so it shouldn't come as too much of a surprise. It's not just the iPhone range which looks set to lose some supported devices, either. The iPad range is also trimming some fat – though it's only the 7th Gen iPad expected to go there. MacOS 26 is rumoured to involve the most casualties, with the 2020 Intel-powered MacBook Air models, 2018 MacBook Pro's, the 2018 Mac Mini and the 2017 iMac Pro all set to face the chopping block. Three of those four shouldn't come as much surprise, but the inclusion of the Intel-powered 2020 MacBook Air models will likely raise some eyebrows. Of course, just because a device is supported also doesn't guarantee it will be feature-filled. We've already seen a number of iPhones launched in the not-too-distant past which support the broader iOS, but can't get features like Apple Intelligence. Still, for those who have kept their devices up to date, this should provide an interesting suite of options.
