After a tumultuous launch, iOS 13 is finally rounding into shape. Apple was forced to roll out iOS 13.1 just days after iOS 13 released due to a variety of bugs and issues that plagued the early software, and although it was certainly an improvement, even iOS 13.1 wasn’t up to Apple’s usual standards. Therefore, work began on iOS 13.2 immediately, and after four developer and public betas, the final version of the update has been seeded.

Aside from the bug fixes, the number one reason to download iOS 13.2 is to gain access to the Deep Fusion camera tech that should make all of your photos — especially in low and medium light — look way better. There are also new emojis, new privacy controls for Siri, and some other subtle upgrades iPhone owners will appreciate.

It’s been nearly three months since Samsung unveiled its second flagship smartphone of the year, but nobody would blame you if you’ve already forgotten about it. No matter how impressive the Note 10 might be, it’s certainly not the shiniest new toy available in stores right now. Samsung’s most prominent rivals have launched all sorts of new phones, including the iPhone 11, the Mate 30, the new OnePlus 7T , and the Pixel 4, to name just a few.

Even the first foldables of the year have hit store shelves, including the Galaxy Fold and Huawei Mate X. Samsung, of course, is working on its next big thing, which is the Galaxy S11 that should be unveiled at some point in February. And, just like clockwork, the first Galaxy S11 rumors have started to drop, including an exciting revelation from a proven source. The Galaxy S11’s design has been supposedly finalized, and it’s expected to leak soon.

As the leaks suggested, Apple officially unveiled its new AirPods Pro wireless earbuds on Monday. The new models feature a completely overhauled design, with flexible silicone ear tips that are meant to provide a more comfortable fit and a better seal on the ear. There is also a vent system that equalizes pressure, which Apple says should counteract the discomfort that some users feel when wearing other in-ear headphones.

The new AirPods also have Active Noise Cancellation, which uses two microphones and advanced software to adapt each ear depending on the environment and the fit on the ear. Apple says that noise cancellation on the AirPods Pro “continuously adapts the sound signal 200 times per second.”

Based on all of the rumors and reports that have been flying around over the past several months, next year is going to be a huge year for the iPhone. Not only is Apple expected to revamp the new phone’s design, but TF International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has repeatedly claimed that a sequel to 2016’s iPhone SE will arrive early next year as well. And in his latest report, he even provides a specific release window: Late March 2020.

According to Kuo (via MacRumors), Apple will begin mass production of the iPhone SE 2 (or iPhone 9 or iPhone 8s) in January 2020, and will then begin shipping the phone at the end of March. This not only lines up with his previous reports, but with the original iPhone SE as well, which launched on March 31st, 2016.

You should know by now that cord-cutting is a huge headache for cable companies. But with AT&T’s diversified lineup of television services across U-verse TV, DirecTV, DirecTV Now, and AT&T TV Now, the company would seem to be well-equipped to deal with those who want to ditch traditional TV subscriptions in favor of streaming.

Apparently, that’s not the case, as AT&T’s latest quarterly report reveals that the company has lost over 1.3 million pay-TV subscribers in the third quarter alone. The losses are huge, and none of the company’s services have been immune to the exodus.
