iOS 13 is great and all, but could it be even better? Apple’s mobile operating system is locked down, but jailbreak developers have always found ways to bypass its protections and allow the installation of unauthorized apps. The latest is Checkra1n, a new jailbreak tool developed by Axi0mx.

The tool is still very early in its development, but it’s available publicly for any brave souls who want to help test it. As 9to5Mac notes, the bypass utilizes a newly-discovered exploit nicknamed “checkm8.”

For a company that prides itself on world-class design and products that “just work,” the MacBook Pro Apple introduced in late 2016 has proven to be nothing short of an embarrassment. As you’ve likely heard by now, Apple’s 2016 MacBook Pro featured a butterfly keyboard design that was supposed to deliver an improved typing experience. Instead, MacBook Pro owners over the past few years have had to deal with a range of frustrating usability issues. Though the new keyboard design was slimmer, it was consistently unreliable and all too prone to breaking down completely if even the slightest piece of debris happened to wedge itself underneath a key.

The good news is that Apple, at long last, has seemingly realized the error of its ways.

As rumors continue to swirl about Apple’s AR-based product roadmap covering the next few years, we’re learning that it will consist of even more devices than previously realized — something that’s probably to be expected, given that Apple has about 1,000 engineers working on all things AR and VR, according to a new Bloomberg report Monday afternoon.

While we reported earlier today that Apple is teeing up an AR headset to launch by 2022 and then a sleek pair of AR glasses to follow the year after that, it seems another product is lined up and headed for release early next year: An all-new iPad Pro with a new 3D sensor system. That system, among other things, would let users create 3D representations of rooms, objects, and people.

Samsung’s Galaxy Fold was never going to compete with any of the traditional flagship smartphones that launched in 2019. Of course, that wasn’t really the point, as Samsung’s primary goals were to beat everyone else to market with a foldable phone, and to show everyone that the technology was not only viable, but ready for primetime. The company failed miserably in regards to the latter goal, as the review units sent to press were fraught with issues, and the units that shipped to consumers months later have had their own share of reported problems as well.

Samsung needed to prove to consumers that a foldable phone could work. It failed. That shouldn’t be the case for the upcoming Galaxy Fold 2, though, as SamMobile reports that Samsung is changing how it makes displays so that one of the most worrisome concerns regarding the device’s durability will no longer be an issue.

It’s hard to believe, but even though no one has been wearing an Apple Watch Series 5 for terribly long at the moment (not even two months yet) we’re already starting to see rumors about next year’s Apple Watch model starting to trickle out.

TF International Securities’ Ming-Chi Kuo, probably the industry’s most reliable and well-connected Apple insider, is predicting via a new research note he’s released that the Apple Watch 6 will not surprisingly be faster as well as offering even better water resistance than its predecessor. Additionally, faster Wi-Fi and cellular speeds might also make for even better wireless transmission.

We’ve got it pretty good here on our little blue orb orbiting a relatively chilled-out star, but space is dark and full of terrors. In a new paper published in The Astrophysical Journal, scientists using data from NASA’s NICER telescope reveal the discovery of an absolutely massive energy burst spotted some 11,000 light-years away from Earth.

NICER, which is a high-tech sensor installed on the International Space Station, detected the incredible release of energy coming from a system known as SAX J1808. Unlike our own solar system, J1808 is a binary system, meaning that its heart is made up of two objects rather than one.

Nintendo’s insanely popular Switch console is no doubt going to end up under a ton of Christmas trees this holiday season after serving as a favorite target of Black Friday and other holiday shoppers. Almost three years after the console’s introduction in early 2017, the Switch has impressively helped Nintendo keep pace with the latest console offerings from rivals Microsoft and Sony, by giving fans something that doesn’t match those rival consoles in terms of specs but builds instead on what Nintendo has always offered: A solid gaming foundation for a lineup of supremely fun first-party titles.

All of which should make it no surprise, really, that during a question and answer session held in tandem with Nintendo’s presentation of its latest financial results, company president Shuntaro Furukawa broke this expected news: The Switch isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.
