Tech & InnovationI’ve reviewed hundreds of laptops — these are the best ones that have launched so far in 2026
Price hikes, RAM shortages, and new chips are a reminder that client hardware is being repriced around AI workloads. If your teams rely on local inference or heavy dev tooling, lock in minimum RAM/CPU/GPU specs and procurement windows now rather than chasing retail cycles later.
Tech & InnovationiPhone age verification is now nagging people who live outside affected regions — but the mystery has been solved
Age-verification logic leaking across regions via imported iPhones shows how hard it is to keep compliance features geographically scoped once hardware and firmware are global. If your product has jurisdiction-specific flows, assume gray-market devices and cross-border users will see them — design for graceful degradation, not perfect geo-fencing.
Tech & Innovation'Air conditioning units are not banned': despite misleading claims online, the UK Government makes clear that you can install air con — but there are rules that limit it, so here's what you need to know
