Apple recently announced its latest iPhone 17, 17 Pro, and iPhone Air models – and as we’ve seen, the base iPhone 17 gained a plethora of upgrades that have made it quite a compelling package. That begs the question, does a 2 year old ‘Pro’ iPhone still have a leg up, or should you just go with the new base model iPhone 17?
In one of the most unexpected announcements of today’s Nintendo Direct, Game Freak revealed Pokémon Pokopia, a game that is clearly inspired by the Animal Crossing series. When Pokopia is released sometime next year, you’ll assume the role of a Ditto determined to make a comfortable home for their friends. This Ditto has assumed the form of a human, and as they meet new Pokémon, they’ll learn abilities they can use to transform their community. In turn, this work will lead to more Pokémon coming to live in your home. The game features a beautiful tilt-shift art style that is reminiscent of Pokémon’s third generation of games that debuted on the Game Boy Advance.

Following recent rumours, Capcom has confirmed that Resident Evil Requiem will launch on the Switch 2 alongside the other platforms on 27th February 2026.
This entry will follow Grace Ashcroft as she investigates mysterious deaths, including that of her mother, RE: Outbreak’s Alyssa Ashcroft. The game will also feature the ruined remains of Raccoon City and the R.P.D station.
It’s also been confirmed that Resident Evil 7: Biohazard and Resident Evil: Village (both Gold Editions) will be heading to the Switch 2 on the same date. Both titles originally launched on the Switch as Cloud Versions to much criticism, so hopefully these native versions will go toward restoring some faith from Nintendo fans.

The iPhone Air is Apple’s flashiest new iPhone model, featuring a strikingly thin industrial design. One of the ways Apple achieved this sleek profile was to maximise internal space by making all iPhones Airs rely on eSIM, with no physical SIM card slot model available.
Despite announcing at the event that the iPhone Air would be available in China through carrier China Telecom, Apple has since delayed the launch. Via The South China Morning Post, the iPhone Air will not go on sale in China today as Apple continues to work with the Chinese regulators regarding eSIM.

AirPods Pro 3 debuted this week with new heart rate monitoring features. This follows the debut of Powerbeats Pro 2, which launched in February as Apple’s first pair of earbuds with heart monitoring capabilities.
Now, Beats has confirmed that the implementation of heart rate tracking on Powerbeats Pro 2 is getting a big upgrade to mirror the functionality offered by AirPods Pro 3.
