Is your iPhone too old? This is how long Apple supports iPhones for

Skip to content Image: FoundryIf you are thinking of buying an older generation or used/refurbished iPhone, or wondering whether it’s worth upgrading your current iPhone to a new one, one important factor to consider is how long Apple will continue to offer support for that handset. The good news is that Apple supports iPhones for a long time. In general, you can get seven to eight years of security-related software updates, while battery and other repairs are often available on five to seven-year-old handsets, according to Apple’s own Vintage and Obsolete categorizations. More on that below. Read on to find out which iPhones are supported with the latest operating systems, and which are supported for servicing and repairs. Macworld’s advice: The iPhone XS and iPhone 11, and any older iPhone should be avoided as can’t run...

NASA spacecraft tracks comet SWAN in incredible 40-day timelapse — and even glimpses interstellar invader 3I/ATLAS (video)

Comets are famous for making brief, dramatic appearances in our skies, but one icy wanderer just received an unprecedented level of attention from one of NASA's newest spacecraft. Comet SWAN moving across the sky in PUNCH images taken from Sept. 11 to 22, 2025. (Image credit: NASA/Southwest Research Institute)The video above stitches together hundreds of PUNCH images taken from Aug. 25 to Oct. 2, showing the comet gliding between two bright objects — Mars at the top and the star Spica in the constellation of Virgo at the bottom. Because the images were not fully processed before being combined, boundaries between individual snaps remain visible as thin black seams, the statement read.Comet C/2025 R2 (SWAN) was first spotted in September by Ukrainian amateur astronomer Vladimir Bezugly, who noticed the icy visitor a bright blob...

AI in Industry: Sector-Specific Innovations in 2025

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionising industries across the globe. In 2025, companies are increasingly adopting AI tools to optimise operations, reduce costs, and improve customer experiences. From manufacturing and logistics to energy and agriculture, AI is enabling smarter decision-making and driving unprecedented efficiency. AI in Manufacturing In manufacturing, AI-powered robotics, predictive maintenance, and quality control are reshaping production lines: Robotic automation handles repetitive tasks, increasing speed and precision. Predictive maintenance analyses machine data to prevent breakdowns and reduce downtime. AI quality control uses computer vision to detect defects that human inspectors might miss. These innovations result in higher efficiency, reduced waste, and lower operational costs. AI in Logistics and Supply Chain AI optimises logistics by forecasting demand, planning routes, and managing inventory: Smart route planning reduces delivery times and fuel consumption. Inventory management systems use AI to predict stock requirements and minimise shortages or overstocking. Warehouse...
