Apple’s next Siri will use Google Gemini — and it shifts ChatGPT to a side role

Apple’s next Siri will use Google Gemini — and it shifts ChatGPT to a side role

Apple is leaning on Google to power its next big Siri upgrade, signing a multi-year collaboration that puts Google’s Gemini AI models under Apple’s “Foundation Models” stack. The companies disclosed the partnership Monday, January 12. This matters because Siri isn’t a side app — it’s the default assistant across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Watch, and CarPlay. Changing what sits behind it changes what hundreds of millions of people will bump into every day, whether they asked for “AI” or not.

Apple tops global smartphone shipments in 2025 with 20% share — and Counterpoint flags 2026 supply risks

Apple tops global smartphone shipments in 2025 with 20% share — and Counterpoint flags 2026 supply risks

Apple closed out 2025 as the leading smartphone brand worldwide, capturing a 20% slice of the global market, according to data from Counterpoint Research. Their latest figures reveal the smartphone market itself expanded by 2% compared to the previous year. It’s not a breakout year, but a 2% increase carries weight. That figure might seem modest until you consider how closely the phone market depends on component availability, carrier deals, and current consumer spending power.

Published: January 14, 2026 A fresh wave of Huawei Pura 90 Ultra leaks is making the rounds today, and the headline is clear: Huawei’s next camera-first flagship could get a notable design shift and a major telephoto upgrade. Multiple reports circulating on January 14 point to a concept-backed horizontal camera bar on the rear panel—while keeping Huawei’s signature triangular lens layout—plus a 200MP periscope telephoto allegedly built around SmartSens’ SCC80XS sensor.

iOS 26.3 Public Beta 2 Released: Apple Tests Background Security Improvements, Adds iPhone‑to‑Android Transfer Tool, and Preps Bigger Messages Upgrades

January 14, 2026 — Apple’s next “point” updates are quickly taking shape.

The release looks modest on the surface, but it bundles several themes Apple is clearly prioritizing in early 2026: easier switching between platforms, regulatory-driven changes in the EU, and a new way of delivering security protections between major software updates. Below is a full breakdown of what’s new in iOS 26.3 beta 2, what’s happening with Background Security Improvements on iPhone and Mac, and what to watch as Apple moves toward a public release expected later this month.

Unihertz Titan 2 Elite Teased Ahead of MWC 2026 as QWERTY Keyboard Phones Make a Comeback

Unihertz teases the Titan 2 Elite, a smaller BlackBerry‑style Android QWERTY phone headed for MWC 2026—just as Clicks and others push keyboard phones back into the spotlight. Jan. 14, 2026 — The touchscreen “glass slab” era has dominated smartphones for nearly two decades, but 2026 is starting with a surprisingly loud counter‑signal: the physical keyboard is back in the headlines. This week, Unihertz teased the Titan 2 Elite, a slimmer, more modern‑looking follow‑up to its Titan line—while Clicks is pushing the idea of a keyboard‑first “second phone” after its CES 2026 reveal.

Apple iPhone Security Alert (Jan 14, 2026): Update to iOS 26.2 and Restart Now to Block WebKit Zero‑Day Attacks

Apple iPhone Security Alert (Jan 14, 2026): Update to iOS 26.2 and Restart Now to Block WebKit Zero‑Day Attacks

Apple is facing fresh scrutiny today, January 14, 2026, after multiple outlets and security researchers urged iPhone owners to update immediately and restart their devices—a simple two-step action that could reduce exposure to actively exploited WebKit “zero‑day” vulnerabilities linked to mercenary spyware. The underlying fixes aren’t new: Apple shipped them December 12, 2025, in iOS 26.2, and Apple’s security notes say the bugs were used in “extremely sophisticated” attacks against targeted individuals. The problem is that millions of eligible iPhones still haven’t moved to iOS 26, leaving a large portion of devices exposed—especially because WebKit is a core component used far beyond Safari.

The headline hasn’t changed: this is still a “Power” phone built around long battery life. What has changed is the conversation around what you’re trading away to get it.

Google Confirms Android Volume Button Bug Linked to “Select to Speak” — What’s Happening, Who’s Affected, and the Fastest Workaround (Jan. 14, 2026)

Google Confirms Android Volume Button Bug Linked to “Select to Speak” — What’s Happening, Who’s Affected, and the Fastest Workaround (Jan. 14, 2026)

A frustrating Android volume glitch has been making the rounds this week: you press the physical volume buttons expecting to change media volume, but the phone adjusts the Accessibility volume instead. Even worse, some users say the volume keys stop working as a camera shutter shortcut, leaving them tapping the on‑screen button just to take a photo. Now Google has officially acknowledged the problem and says it’s working on a fix. Until that arrives, the company is recommending a simple workaround: turn off the “Select to Speak” accessibility feature.

Samsung’s One UI 8.5 storyline picked up pace on Wednesday, January 14, 2026, with two developments that matter to everyday Galaxy users: a Good Lock LockStar update that makes the lock screen feel more personal, and fresh reporting that the next One UI 8.5 Beta 4 could deliver a meaningful performance lift for the Galaxy S25 series via a major kernel upgrade.

FCC clears SpaceX to add 7,500 more Starlink satellites — and loosen a key limit that caps capacity

FCC clears SpaceX to add 7,500 more Starlink satellites — and loosen a key limit that caps capacity

SpaceX just got the green light from the FCC to launch an additional 7,500 second-generation Starlink satellites. This approval paves the way for the company to boost satellite broadband capacity and enhance direct-to-device mobile service. What really affects users isn’t merely the number of satellites. The agency also approved lower orbital altitudes and adjustments to power and beam regulations, which, simply put, allow Starlink to squeeze more usable bandwidth into the same slice of sky.

Iran’s internet blackout is squeezing journalists — and turning Starlink into a key outlet for protest videos

Iran’s internet blackout is squeezing journalists — and turning Starlink into a key outlet for protest videos

Iran’s almost complete internet blackout has shifted gears: Starlink now stands as one of the few remaining avenues for sharing protest videos. Authorities are actively tracking down the satellite terminals enabling these uploads. This situation extends beyond Iran because it serves as a real-time experiment in how fast a government can “shut down” public internet access—and what unfolds when users switch to satellite connections that bypass local telecom providers. It also thrusts a consumer connectivity device into the heart of an information battle.

CES 2026 wrap-up: Clicks’ keyboard “Communicator,” Ikko’s square Android, and Samsung’s TriFold steal the phone spotlight

CES 2026 wrap-up: Clicks’ keyboard “Communicator,” Ikko’s square Android, and Samsung’s TriFold steal the phone spotlight

CES 2026 is over, and the most interesting phone hardware coming out of Las Vegas wasn’t a standard glass slab. The show’s closing roundup points to a small but telling push toward devices that are trying—hard—to look and feel different. That matters right now because the modern smartphone has basically converged on one design, and most upgrades land as refinements. CES is one of the last big stages where companies can still put a strange idea in your hand and see if it earns a second look.

Spigen’s Retro Macintosh-Inspired iPhone 17 Pro Case Is Going Viral Ahead of Apple’s 50th Anniversary (Jan. 14 reminder + availability update)

Updated Wednesday, Jan. 14, 2026 — Spigen’s brand-new Classic LS iPhone case is turning the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max into what looks like a pocket-sized slice of early Apple history, complete with beige “classic computer” vibes, a rainbow-style logo moment, and an unapologetically retro “Hello” Easter egg. The accessory launched into the spotlight over the last 48 hours across tech, lifestyle, and even photography-adjacent outlets — and today’s biggest update is that Spigen’s free matching strap offer appears to be tapped out, with Spigen’s site now flagging the phone strap as sold out and the case itself as limited stock.

iPhone 18 Pro leak hints under-display Face ID, 120Hz LTPO screens, and iPhone Air 2 display details — plus iPhone 17e and iPhone Fold roadmap (Jan 14, 2026)

A fresh wave of supply-chain chatter and tipster posts is putting Apple’s 2026 iPhone plans back in the spotlight. Reports circulating on January 14 say the iPhone 18 lineup has already entered early “sample”/prototype stages, with the biggest headline being under-display Face ID testing on iPhone 18 Pro models — a move that could shrink the Dynamic Island on premium iPhones. At the same time, separate reporting continues to point to an unusually busy year for Apple: a lower-cost iPhone 17e expected early, an ambitious foldable iPhone later in the year, and potential shifts in Apple’s traditional September-only iPhone cadence.

India’s Smartphone Security Overhaul Sparks Source‑Code Clash With Apple and Samsung as Government Denies “Forced” Disclosure

Updated: Tuesday, January 13, 2026 India’s latest push to tighten smartphone security has turned into a high-stakes standoff between New Delhi and the world’s biggest handset makers—after reports said draft rules could require companies to submit operating‑system source code for government review. Apple, Samsung and other major brands are pushing back behind the scenes, arguing the measures could expose trade secrets and even weaken security if sensitive code is centralized.

Google Photos could soon add Backup Schedule and Playback Speed controls in a new Expressive UI update (Jan 13, 2026)

Google Photos may be preparing a trio of long-requested upgrades that could make the app feel significantly more “user-controlled” on Android: a Backup schedule setting, video playback speed controls, and an optional cleaner Photos grid that hides date separators. The changes were spotted in Google Photos v7.58 through APK teardown work and echoed across multiple tech outlets over the past few days—meaning they’re not official launches yet, but strong signs of what Google is actively building. As of January 13, 2026, the story here isn’t one single official Google announcement—it’s a convergence of APK-teardown reporting pointing to the same direction: Google Photos is being redesigned and may finally be getting the kinds of “quality-of-life” controls people have been asking for.
