The second Detective Pikachu trailer released today, showcasing more live-action Pokémon and the movie’s plot. Although the Pokémon franchise is wildly popular, adapting it into live-action with a talking Pikachu (one voiced by Ryan Reynolds, no less) was initially met with skepticism. Since then, however, audiences have warmed up to the idea of the Detective Pikachu movie. Based on the 2018 video game of the same name, the Detective Pikachu movie follows Justice Smith’s Tim Goodman and Reynolds’ Pikachu as they attempt to uncover the mystery behind the disappearance of Tim’s father....

While there hasn’t been an official policy change or new strategy made public, software developers have been noticing dramatically shorter review times when submitting apps through Apple’s approval process on both the iOS and Mac App Stores. Citing data from AppReviewTimes.com, Bloomberg today highlights the positive trend, while noting that iOS App Store review times currently average just two days turnaround time and just one day for the Mac App Store....

Spending on mobile apps has also grown 23.4% in 2020, with consumer spending reaching $50.1 billion worldwide in the first half of the year. These record revenue and install figures reflect the continued health of the mobile app market as a whole, reports TechCrunch. Growth is strong, thanks in equal measure to innovation and greater monetisation of apps. It’s that growth potential that helps to explain why so many developers are keen to see if they can create the next great mobile app experience....

The debut of Disney+ is fast approaching and subscribers will need to set aside a lot of time in order to dive into the launch day content. It took the new streaming service over three hours to announce all of the titles that will be available on day one. Here’s how long it would take to watch Disney+ launch day content, including a breakdown highlighting movies and TV shows, separately....

Disney could have dominated the entire box-office top 10 in 2019, if not for the fact Dumbo was a disappointment. This year has already been a recording-breaking one for Disney, with some major releases still to come, but it could’ve been even better if not for Tim Burton’s Dumbo. Although Disney continues to create original content, most of their latest releases have been adaptations of comic book characters, sequels, reimaginings, and live-action versions of some of their animated classics – which is not all that bad, considering that most of them have been box office hits, with Avengers: Endgame becoming the highest-grossing film of all time....

After just one day of release, Disney+ has surpassed more than 10 million subscribers. With the launches of Apple TV+ and Disney+ this month (not to mention continued buildup for HBO Max), the streaming wars are now in full swing. From the moment it was announced, Disney+ was always one of the most anticipated platforms, buoyed by its impressive library of content. Over the past several years, the Mouse House has put together an expansive media empire that includes multiple popular subsidiaries such as the Marvel and Star Wars franchises....

Now I have a few hours under my belt; I’m able to share my thoughts and feelings on this drone and, more importantly, whether I think it’s worth the eye-watering price tag that DJI has put on this drone. See also: DJI Mavic 3 unboxing and first impressions. The model I’ve been using is the Mavic 3 and not the Cine version. The Cine version differs from the regular version in that it features a built-in 1TB drive and can record using the Apple ProRes 422 HQ codec....

Doctor Who has been a staple of British TV for over 50 years. During that time we’ve seen 14 Doctors put on their iconic costumes and jump into the T.A.R.D.I.S. for an intergalactic adventure. The character has evolved since we first saw him, but there are a lot of consistencies through the various personalities. Our current Doctor is played by Jodie Whittaker and she’s doing a stellar job. But we don’t want to talk about our favorite incarnations of the character today, but rather what they wore during their stint in the famous role....

Why did Peter Capaldi’s Twelfth Doctor regenerate in Doctor Who? There’s a sense in which regeneration is the key to Doctor Who’s success. It means the series can continually reinvent itself; if one Doctor’s viewing figures are beginning to slide, or if the actor wants to move on, the BBC can just cast a replacement. Even better, while there are common traits between the different Doctors - the same intelligence, the same whimsical nature - each actor is allowed to portray the Doctor in a way that they feel works....

The Avengers’ archer Hawkeye gets a bad rap for not having a superpower, despite his incredible accuracy with a bow and arrow. Fans joke that Hawkeye’s usefulness ends the second he runs out of trick arrows and that his speed and strength doesn’t measure up to superheroes like Captain America. It’s gotten to the point where Jeremy Renner, who plays Hawkeye in the MCU, pokes fun at his character in SNL sketches and a song parody on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon (check it out below)....

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIsdkOvySkk] AT&T just released its earnings and showed strong iPhone sales despite having a 16-month old device on hand with updates looming. The carrier reported activating 2.7 million iPhones in the quarter out of a total of 4.8 million total devices. Android device sales doubled year over year. Our polls show that significantly more than half of all US iPhone users go with AT&T, due mostly to the higher data rates and ability to talk and use data at the same time....

Lately, there has been a storm of rumored iPhone 6 images, renders, schematics, and videos. We’ve seen just about everything that the rumor mill has to offer at this point. All of the mockups that have been floating around may not match up with Apple’s official iPhone 6 design, but they are definitely convincing to an extent. We recently put together a video comparing an iPhone 6 mockup to the iPhone 5s and fifth generation iPod touch, but what about Apple’s other iOS devices?...

I’ve always been intrigued about the idea of a standing desk, but I’ve never been motivated to actually try one until recently. As someone who sits at a desk and blogs about Mac and iOS for a living, I was particularly interested in seeing what type of benefits such a desk could offer. Enter the PowerUp from UpDesk, a Nashville-based company that specializes in standing desks. The PowerUp, as its name alludes to, is a motorized standing desk that can lower and raise with the press of a button....

Last week, we revealed Apple’s decision to drop Google Maps in iOS 6 in exchange for its own in-house solution branded simply as “Maps.” At the time, we told you many versions of iOS 6 have been floating around Apple’s campus, which indicated Apple is likely on track for a mid-June unveiling at this year’s World Wide Developers Conference. Shortly after, references to an upcoming iOS 6 beta were found in the code strings of the iCloud....

Being single again doesn’t sound so bad if things aren’t going well with your spouse anymore, right? Not all marriages play out like a fairy tale, after all. Considering that the average marriage length for Aussies is 12.2 years, this applies to a lot of people. But what are the exact numbers, facts and figures? To help you find out how many people get divorced, we’ve gathered some divorce statistics in Australia....

One of the hottest stories of the past few weeks has been AT&T’s new DirecTV Now streaming service. We went hands-on with the service last week and noted of one major holdout in terms of channel availability: CBS. Now, however, CBS chairman and CEO Les Moonves has hinted that the two companies are in talks… Speaking at the UBS Global Media and Communications conference, Moonves explained that he very much thinks CBS will make a deal with AT&T to join the platform, but wouldn’t offer up specifics....

AT&T continues to swiftly expand the availability of its low-band 5G network across the United States. The carrier today announced that customers in 137 new markets can now access low-band 5G on compatible devices. As usual, there needs to be an explanation of what exactly this means because AT&T has complicated the 5G rollout beyond belief. Today’s expansion is of AT&T’s low-band 850MHz spectrum networking technology. It’s not mmWave 5G, which is ultra high-band frequencies, but it is a step up from the so-called 5G E network that AT&T has been pushing in many areas....
