Apple’s fall event calendar has settled into a familiar groove, and this year’s Labor Day landing on September 7 leaves Wednesday the 9th looking like the strongest candidate for the iPhone 18 Pro reveal. Past fifteen years of keynotes rarely stray far from that window, and the pattern points to pre-orders opening the following Friday with phones shipping a week later on the 18th. A later Monday date remains possible, yet the early-September slot has held more often than not.
Summers across Japan keep hitting harder, with streets and work sites turning into open-air ovens.

Months of cutting, measuring, and reprinting have produced a second version of a fully native PS4 handheld that sits smaller and more balanced in the hands than the first attempt. Modder wewillmakeitnow started with the same PS4 Slim motherboard that powered the original project, then trimmed it further after gaining sharper skills with 3D modeling software. The board still delivers complete PlayStation 4 performance, only now it draws less power and fits inside a cleaner shell.
Garmin just introduced Cirqa, a slim fabric band that records health and activity data around the clock while staying completely blank. No display lights up. No notifications flash. The only interaction on the device itself is a single side button that starts a favorite activity you already chose in the companion app. Everything else lives on your phone.
Most security cameras force a choice. You either get a wide view that shows everything but leaves details fuzzy, or a tighter lens that catches faces and license plates while leaving big parts of the room or yard uncovered. Tapo’s C246D, priced at $54.99 (was $70), refuses that trade-off by packing two separate 2K sensors into one compact body.
