    Some owners of the new iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max have reported over the last week and a half that they've noticed their phones running a bit warmer than older iPhones. We observed that the phones could run hot while working on our review , "sometimes to the point that they were uncomfortable to hold without a case," and other reviewers and users have noticed the issue as well.

    The problem is real and serious enough to have merited an official response from Apple over the weekend, shared with MacRumors and other outlets. Apple says the main culprit at first is "increased background activity" that occurs as users set up their new phones for the first time (which I've also noticed in other iPhones and iPads and is pretty typical).

    But Apple also says it has identified "a bug in iOS 17 that is impacting some users" and that specific apps like Uber, Instagram, and the game Asphalt 9: Legends are all "overload[ing] the system" and causing heat problems. The company is working with those apps' developers on fixes that will be distributed via the App Store.

      As the EA Sports FC era dawns, FIFA 23 is removed from digital platforms

    A new, FIFA-less era begins for EA Sports.

    EA has suddenly removed downloadable versions of FIFA 23 from multiple digital storefronts. The delisting comes earlier than expected for the title and coincides with the company's launch of the newly FIFA-license-free EA Sports FC 24 .

    While many reports suggest there has been a recent mass purge of all legacy FIFA games from online stores, EA has a history of delisting older sports titles at a pretty regular cadence. FIFA 22 , for instance, was delisted from digital storefronts in May, roughly seven months after the launch of the subsequent FIFA 23 . And FIFA 21 wasn't taken down from Steam until June 2022 , about eight months after FIFA 22 's launch.

    FIFA 23 , on the other hand, has been delisted less than a year from its October 2022 launch. SteamDB tracking data suggests that the delisting came on September 21, the day before the new EA Sports FC became available for a 10-hour early access trial for EA Play members. The Steam store page for FIFA 23 now notes that the delisting comes "at the request of the publisher" and that the game "will not appear in search." The game also no longer appears on Steam's EA publisher page .

      Rolling in style: The Priority E-Coast beach cruiser

    Sometimes, no matter what you think your level of expertise is, you need to follow the advice of others. I learned this lesson again while assembling the Priority E-Coast , a $1,999 electric beach cruiser from Priority Bicycles. Priority told me right there on the box. "Warning: Bicycle assembly should be performed or verified by a professional bicycle mechanic."

    Once I finished putting the E-Coast together, I was left with a gorgeous e-bike that was enjoyable to ride. But getting there involved more time and swearing than I'm used to. The good news is that Priority apparently heard the curses of its customers, as the part that made assembly miserable has been removed. So you might not need a pro bike tech after all.

    Unlike some e-bike manufacturers, which seem to have popped up out of nowhere in the last couple of years, Priority has been around since 2014, when it launched via Kickstarter. Nine years and two Kickstarters later, it has a robust lineup of motorized and human-powered bicycles.

      Microsoft overhauls its pricey Surface Laptop Studio with new CPU, GPU, and RAM

    NEW YORK—Two years after announcing the original, Microsoft has announced a much-needed refresh of the Surface Laptop Studio , the company's convertible touchscreen laptop that also serves as its most powerful notebook for people playing games or doing any kind of 3D rendering or GPU-accelerated AI work. The new Laptop Studio 2 will start at $1,999.99 and is available for preorder now; it will ship on October 3.

    Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio 2

    (Ars Technica may earn compensation for sales from links on this post through affiliate programs .)

    The Laptop Studio 2 is a substantial internal overhaul, swapping out a quad-core 11th-generation Intel Core CPU and a GeForce 3050 Ti for a 13th-generation CPU and GeForce RTX 4050 and 4060 options (with an RTX 2000 also available for people who need a "pro" GPU). Microsoft continues to refresh Surface devices toward the end of Intel's product cycles, and next-generation Meteor Lake Core processors should be coming soon, but this is still a welcome upgrade over the old model. It's also the first x86 Surface that Microsoft sells with an NPU for accelerating AI and machine learning workloads, specifically an Intel Gen 3 Intel Movidius 3700VC .

    Unfortunately, the base $2,000 version gets you very few of those perks. It includes an i7-13700H with six P-cores, eight E-cores, and 16GB of RAM, but it only comes with integrated graphics and a 512GB SSD.

      Microsoft’s new Surface Laptop Go 3 is officially no longer a budget PC

      news.movim.eu / ArsTechnica · Thursday, 21 September, 2023 - 16:47 · 1 minute

    Meet the Surface Laptop Go 3. It looks a lot like the Laptop Go 2.

    Enlarge / Meet the Surface Laptop Go 3. It looks a lot like the Laptop Go 2.

    NEW YORK—Microsoft is updating two of the cheapest, cutest Surface devices today, announcing internal refreshes for the Surface Laptop Go and the Surface Go tablet. The Surface Laptop Go 3 and the Surface Go 4 are externally identical to their predecessors, but both are getting respectable internal upgrades that should provide enough power for budget-minded PC buyers. But only the laptop will be available to the general public; the new Go tablet will only be offered to Microsoft's business customers.

    Microsoft Surface Laptop Go 3

    (Ars Technica may earn compensation for sales from links on this post through affiliate programs .)

    The Laptop Go 3 is getting a new higher starting price of $800 , which is $200 higher than the starting price of the Laptop Go 2 . That said, the $600 configuration of the Laptop Go 2 was essentially impossible to recommend, thanks to its 128GB SSD and (especially) its paltry 4GB of RAM. The new base config comes with a serviceable 8GB of RAM and 256GB SSD, with a 16GB RAM upgrade available for another $200. These upgrade prices are steep and arguably take the Go out of the "budget laptop" category, but they do have the benefit of making it much more usable, and the laptop costs the same amount as the 8GB/256GB version of the Laptop Go 2.

    The Laptop Go 3 is available for preorder now in four different colors and will launch on October 3.

      tvOS 17’s extra column of icons is its most useful new feature in years

      news.movim.eu / ArsTechnica · Monday, 18 September, 2023 - 18:22

    Consider this a mini-review: Apple is releasing tvOS 17 today, and the update is probably the most useful one that Apple has released since the very early days of tvOS in 2015 .

    Apple TV 4K

    (Ars Technica may earn compensation for sales from links on this post through affiliate programs .)

    Why? Not because of some stunningly innovative new feature or a great app that tames the tangle of competing streaming services. It's because Apple added an extra column of app icons. There are now six icons in a row instead of five. Revolutionary.

    That probably comes across as more sarcastic or cutting than poor tvOS deserves. It is genuinely nice to have that extra column of icons, particularly in the top row where apps can use the carousel that consumes the top half of the Apple TV's home screen.
