Spigen’s Ultra Nano isn’t the most heavy-duty screen protector out there, but it looks great and doesn’t dramatically interfere with touch-screen responsiveness. Like many screen protectors on the market, the 50-micron thick strip is hard coated with anti-UV ray protection to help deter electromagnetic rays and protect your screen from the various woes it will surely encounter. The adhesive is strong to prevent lifting around the edges and the additional oleophobic coating helps keep annoying fingerprints and smudges to a minimum. Be sure to check out Spigen’s Ultra Crystal screen protector if you’re looking for something with a little more resilience.

The company made a point to emphasis its “no compromise on clarity” approach to the film, adding screen protection that remains clear and maintains the responsiveness of your iPhone’s display. It’s not top-notch, but the price is incredibly affordable and the product comes in a pack of three just in case.
Working on a tight budget? Skonmi’s TechSkin screen protector has got you covered.

It may be listed at $12, but you can usually score the screen protector at various online retailers for around $10.

Are you tired of paying for streaming services you never watch just to get a phone plan feature you actually want? T-Mobile has good news for you! The carrier is rolling out new plans, called T-Mix, in early November to replace its old Experience lineup with a build-your-own perks system called Picks.
The benefits you choose vary from streaming and gaming to food delivery, AI, satellite service, and phone discounts. But if you are satisfied with your existing plan, you can keep it.
Merely days after the iPhone Duo hit the shelves, images of broken screens on the phone started popping up across social media. Until now, it’s been unclear what’s causing the line of defective pixels that appears vertically along the crease, as well as horizontally, on the phone’s inner display.
Apple has finally acknowledged the issue, which has shown up on iPhone Duo units owned by customers as well as demo units in stores. In a statement shared with Bloomberg, Apple says that not all iPhone Duo units are affected and that those that are tend to show the display fault early on. The company added that users who experience problems with their iPhone Duo display should contact AppleCare for a replacement.
Not long ago, Apple treated independent repair like an act of outright hostility. The Cupertino giant locked down parts with serial-number pairing, while repair tools remained firmly out of reach of anyone outside its authorized repair network. More importantly, the company waged a legal and lobbying battle against right-to-repair legislation.
I've covered enough of these fights over the years to know what a shift looks like. That's why what happened in October 2026 genuinely caught me off guard. The day the iPhone Duo went on sale, what may be the most mechanically complex iPhone to date, Apple pulled off a surprising about-face. It published teardown-style repair manuals for a handful of major components.
