Kyrgios defeats Sabalenka but Battle of the Sexes veers too close to circus

28 décembre 2025 à 19:21

Nick Kyrgios won 6-3, 6-3 against Aryna Sabalenka in an intriguing Dubai contest with celebrity interruptions

Nick Kyrgios won tennis’s latest Battle of the Sexes against Aryna Sabalenka in a dispiriting contest in Dubai that veered uneasily between exhibition, gimmick and outright circus.

The Australian, who has won only one competitive singles match since the end of 2022 and has slipped to 671 in the world rankings, was sweating heavily and breathing hard as early as the fifth game of the match. Yet to no one’s great surprise, the extreme power of his serve, combined with the spin and velocity of his groundstrokes, proved too much for the women’s No 1 player.

New Battle of the Sexes is cynical bid for attention and own goal for Sabalenka

27 décembre 2025 à 09:00

World No 1’s clash with Nick Kyrgios is on track to being one of the most inane tennis events ever conceived

This has been the year of Aryna Sabalenka for so many reasons. In 2025, she has reached three of the four grand slam finals, winning her fourth major title at the US Open and further positioning herself as a generational great. From her humble origins as a volatile, one-note ball-basher, the 27-year-old has admirably evolved into an increasingly complete player. Sabalenka is the best player in the world for a second year in succession.

The fleeting tennis off-season is usually an opportunity for players and spectators alike to reflect on such great feats before the new season is upon them. This year, however, the December discourse has been derailed by the fast-approaching train wreck Sabalenka stands at the heart of.

Track Santa's Journey From the North Pole Using Google's Santa Tracker

24 décembre 2025 à 13:00
Have you been good this year? If so, you may be interested to know that Google has launched its annual Santa tracking feature, allowing Santa to be tracked in real time on his journey to the North Pole as he prepares to deliver presents to children around the world.


Google's Santa Tracker continues a two-decade tradition for the company, allowing excited children (and grown-ups!) to keep up with the jolly gift-giver's travels throughout December 24. On this day, Santa's Village transforms into a tracking experience where children can follow Santa and his reindeer as they merrily go about their important work.

Santa can be tracked using a web browser on iPhone, iPad, or Mac by visiting Google's official Santa Tracking website. The site features a live map of Santa's current location, his next stop, a live video feed of his journey, and the estimated time that he will arrive in each specific location.

The Santa site provides pictures of locations that Santa has already visited, a live count of gifts that have been delivered, and Santa's current distance from your location. There are also a selection of games to play, creative things to do, and videos to watch.

Other Santa tracking services are also available, such as the NORAD Tracks Santa Claus app and website, but Google's site is often the most interactive and detailed. Happy holidays!

Comment bien configurer un smartphone ou un iPad pour un enfant ?

25 décembre 2025 à 14:57

Votre enfant vient de récupérer votre vieil iPhone ou votre ancienne tablette ? Il est probable que vous n'utilisiez pas correctement les outils d'Apple et de Google dédiés à l'utilisation d'un appareil par un enfant. C'est dommage, ils sont pourtant très utiles pour sécuriser leur expérience (et protéger votre compte en banque).

What You Can (and Can't) Use an Apple Gift Card For

25 décembre 2025 à 11:30
Apple Gift Cards are one of the most common Apple-related gifts given during the holidays, so if you've received one today, here are all of the things you can and cannot use it for.


After redeeming an Apple Gift Card, the value is added to the Apple Account balance and automatically applies at checkout when making eligible purchases. It can be spent on a wide range of Apple products, services, and digital content.

Apple Gift Cards are marketed as a single, flexible balance that works across Apple's ecosystem, but there are clear limits on what they can and cannot be used for once redeemed to an Apple Account.

What Apple Gift Cards Can Be Used For



  • Purchasing Apple hardware and accessories on apple.com, in the Apple Store app, or in an Apple retail store.

  • Using the balance toward Apple hardware when checking out, with any remaining cost paid using another payment method.

  • Buying apps and games on the App Store, including in-app purchases.

  • Paying for digital media, including movies, TV shows, and books through Apple's digital storefronts.

  • Covering subscriptions to Apple services such as Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, and iCloud+ storage, as well as eligible third-party app subscriptions billed through the ‌App Store‌.



What Apple Gift Cards Can't Be Used For



  • Making purchases outside Apple's ecosystem, such as goods or services from non-Apple retailers.

  • Starting certain recurring payments, such as AppleCare+ plans, without an additional credit or debit card on file.

  • Redeeming or using balances across different countries or regions, as gift cards are typically region-locked.

  • Transferring to or purchasing other gift cards.

  • Exchanging for cash or cash equivalents.



While Apple Gift Cards are intentionally designed to be more versatile than older ‌App Store‌ or ‌Apple Store‌–only gift cards, they still come with some limits. For users, the key distinction is that Apple Gift Cards work best for Apple-direct purchases and subscriptions, but they can't replace a traditional payment method for gifting or non-Apple spending.

Apple Discontinued These 25 Products This Year

24 décembre 2025 à 16:24
With the end of 2025 near, the time has come to look back at the devices and accessories that Apple discontinued throughout the year.


Most of the products that were discontinued this year were simply replaced by a new model with an updated chip. However, the iPhone SE line was entirely discontinued when the iPhone 16e launched, and the iPhone Plus line is being phased out.

Below, we have listed 25 products that were discontinued by Apple this year.

iPhones


Apple discontinued the third-generation iPhone SE in February, after introducing the iPhone 16e. As a result, Apple no longer sells any iPhone models with a Home button, Touch ID, LCD screen, a sub-6-inch screen size, or Lightning.

The original iPhone SE was released in March 2016. That model's design was largely based on the iPhone 5s, with key specs including a 4-inch display, a Touch ID home button, and an aluminum and glass frame with chamfered edges. However, the device was powered by a newer A9 chip from the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus.

Apple went on to release two more iPhone SE models in 2020 and 2022, respectively, with those devices having a similar design as the iPhone 8.

Meanwhile, the iPhone Plus has effectively been replaced by the ultra-thin iPhone Air in Apple's smartphone lineup. Both the iPhone 14 Plus and iPhone 15 Plus were discontinued this year, and it is only a matter of time before the iPhone 16 Plus is axed too. Apple is not expected to release another Plus model in the foreseeable future.

Here are all of the iPhone models that were discontinued this year:
  • iPhone 16 Pro Max (succeeded by iPhone 17 Pro Max)

  • iPhone 16 Pro (succeeded by iPhone 17 Pro)

  • iPhone 15 Plus

  • iPhone 15

  • iPhone 14 Plus

  • iPhone 14

  • iPhone SE (succeeded by iPhone 16e)

iPads



It was a spec-bump year for the iPad lineup, with the iPad Pro, iPad Air, and entry-level iPad all receiving faster chips, but no major design changes.

Here are all of the iPad models that were discontinued this year:

  • iPad Pro with M4 chip (updated with M5 chip)

  • iPad Air with M2 chip (updated with M3 chip)

  • iPad 10 (updated with A16 chip)

Apple Watches



Apple Watch Series 11 is a very minor upgrade over the now-discontinued Series 10, but the Apple Watch Ultra 3 and Apple Watch SE 3 offer some more meaningful changes. None of the latest Apple Watch models received a new chip, though.

Here are all of the Apple Watch models that were discontinued this year:

  • Apple Watch Ultra 2 (succeeded by Apple Watch Ultra 3)

  • Apple Watch Series 10 (succeeded by Apple Watch Series 11)

  • Apple Watch SE 2 (succeeded by Apple Watch SE 3)

Macs



Here are all of the Mac models that were discontinued this year:

  • Mac Studio with M2 Max and M2 Ultra chips (updated with M4 Max and M3 Ultra chips)

  • 14-inch MacBook Pro with M4 chip (updated with M5 chip)

  • 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Air with M3 chip (updated with M4 chip)

  • 13-inch MacBook Air with M2 chip

Other



Here are other Apple products and accessories that were discontinued this year:* In the U.S., U.K., Canada, Japan, and select other countries only.

iOS 26.3 arrive bientôt : date de sortie et ouverture historique à Android

24 décembre 2025 à 13:52
La prochaine mise à jour pour iPhone , iOS 26.3 , est disponible en version bêta et propose déjà de nouvelles fonctionnalités intéressantes. La version stable semble arriver au rythme habituel d'Apple ces dernières années. L'arrivée de cette nouvelle version s'inscrit dans un calendrier bien établi, ce qui permet de mieux comprendre quand la version finale sera disponible pour tous. Les trois dernières versions x.3 d'iOS sont toutes sorties à peu près au même moment : iOS 18.3 le 27 janvier, iOS 17.3 le 22 janvier et iOS 16.3 le 23 janvier. La proximité de ces dates suggère une tendance stable. Chaque mise à jour était diffusée un lundi, exactement une semaine après le Martin Luther King Jr. Day , un jour férié américain qui tombe dans la seconde moitié de janvier. En 2025, la date correspondante est le 26 janvier . Si Apple maintient ce rythme, iOS 26.3 devrait arriver en fin de mois, le 26 janvier étant la date la plus probable. Cependant, la sortie pourrait être repoussée de quelques jours cette semaine. La première version bêta d' iOS 26.3 introduit trois changements ciblés, conformément au rôle généralement plus modeste des mises à jour x.3 . La gestion des fonds d'écran a été mise à jour avec la séparation des options dédiées à la météo et celles liées à l' astronomie , ainsi que de nouvelles suggestions dans la galerie. Une nouvelle fonctionnalité de transfert Android est également en préparation , fruit d'une collaboration entre Apple et Google . L'objectif est de simplifier le passage d'un iPhone à un appareil Android, tandis que Google travaille sur un mécanisme similaire pour ceux qui effectuent le trajet inverse. Dans l' Union européenne , iOS 26.3 introduit également le transfert des notifications vers les appareils connectés tiers . Cette fonctionnalité, similaire à celle déjà disponible pour l'Apple Watch, est désormais accessible aux montres connectées et autres objets connectés non Apple. Apple n'a pour l'instant publié qu'une version bêta , et aucune autre fonctionnalité n'a été dévoilée. De futures versions de test pourraient en proposer davantage, mais la firme de Cupertino n'a encore communiqué aucun détail. (Lire la suite)

Track a Flight on Your iPhone

23 décembre 2025 à 11:27
Flight tracker apps are a popular way to keep tabs on planes in the sky, because when you're preparing to fly or when someone you know is on board a flight, you can use them to check that things are still on schedule. But if you have an iPhone, you don't need to download and install a third-party app to track a flight – it's a handy built-in feature of the operating system.


The ability to track flights in iOS is thanks to the data detectors that Apple has integrated into the system for quite a few years now. Data detectors recognize things like times, dates and addresses, and in the right context, turns these into tappable links. Here's how it works.

Track Flights in Messages


If someone sends you a flight number (U2502, say) in Messages, you can press and hold the underlined number to get a real-time view of the flight's progress plotted on a map.

messages
You also get the option to learn more by tapping Preview Flight, which will give you information like departure and arrival times, delays, and for some airports, baggage claim details. You'll find links to the airline website and Apple Maps at the bottom of the information card.

To increase the chances that iOS detects the flight number, it's best to include the full airline name along with the number (EasyJet U2502, for example).

Track Flights in Spotlight Search


On iPhone and iPad, you can also track flights in Search.

search
Swipe down from the middle of the Home screen and simply input the flight number into the search field to get departure and arrival information. Tap the information card to get the additional details mentioned above.

Tracking Flights on a Mac


spotlight
Apple has included the same data detectors into macOS, meaning you can track flights on your Mac, too. Simply invoke Spotlight with the Command-Spacebar key combination and type the flight number into the input field.

spotlight
Select the flight data in the results, and you'll see the same information card that appears in iOS, complete with the flight's live trajectory shown on a map and other details.

Apple Offers Free Two-Hour Delivery for Last-Minute Holiday Shopping

22 décembre 2025 à 23:59
Apple has started offering free two-hour delivery on eligible, in-stock products for those who still need to do some last-minute gift shopping. The two-hour delivery upgrade is available through December 24 in most metro areas of the U.S. and Canada. Three-hour delivery is also available in Australia.


Two-hour delivery is provided through courier companies that Apple partners with, like Uber Eats or Postmates, and it typically costs $9. Items are delivered from a local Apple retail store, so whatever you're ordering needs to be in stock at a nearby location.

The offer is available for in-stock purchases of iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, AirPods, Apple TV, and Beats headphones. It is not available for custom Macs or engraved orders, nor is it applicable to accessories. Some accessories and products are also still available for December 24th delivery with express shipping.

Apple is still providing an extended return policy, so items purchased now can be returned through January 6, 2026.

Turn 10 confirms Forza Motorsport won’t be getting any new content

18 décembre 2025 à 15:00

Forza Motorsport was one of the big first-party titles announced prior to the launch of the then-next-gen Xbox Series X|S. Said to be ‘built from the ground up’ the track racer launched in a disappointing state – with the team spending much of their time trying to bring Motorsport up to snuff. Major lay-offs at studio Turn 10 earlier this year led many to fear that future support had been cancelled. Though denied at the time, Microsoft has now confirmed that Forza Motorsport is turning off its engine.

Publishing a blog post titled ‘2025 Forza Year in Review’, the team at Turn 10 Studios offered a recap of the updates, additions and announcements from across the Forza series over the past 12 months.

By far the most interest part of the post however comes near the end, where-in the team discuss the ill-fated Forza Motorsport, writing: “As our team shifts its focus toward delivering the best possible experience with Forza Horizon 6 in 2026, we do not plan to introduce new cars, tracks, features, or regular bug fixes for Forza Motorsport.”

Forza Motorsport Turn 10

They continue, “However, we will continue supporting the game by keeping online servers active, hosting special events and competitions, and reintroducing previously released Featured Tours and reward cars on a monthly basis, until all content is available for you to enjoy anytime.”

Like many of Xbox’s early 9th-gen game announcements, 2023’s Forza Motorsport was intended to be a long-lasting experience receiving updates for years to come. Unfortunately, with a less-then-stellar launch and a slow rollout of notable improvements – coupled with the lay-offs earlier this year – the writing was on the wall for Forza Motorsport.

KitGuru says: Are you surprised by the announcement? Did you have high hopes for Motorsport prior to launch? Will the series be laid to rest in favour of Horizon? Let us know down below.
