A MacBook is more than a laptop. For students, it’s a study tool. For parents, it’s a major investment meant to last for years. For professionals, it’s an essential work device. With prices well into four figures, a single accident can leave you with a damaged device and a high repair bill. That’s exactly why MacBook insurance is worth considering.

A drop, a cracked screen, or a spill can quickly turn your phone into an expensive problem. Still, many people hesitate to get phone insurance because of common myths about cost, coverage, and claims. Some think insurance is pricey, others believe their warranty covers everything, and some assume accidents won’t happen to them.

Renters and homeowners insurance protect your living space and personal belongings, such as furniture, electronics, clothing, and everyday items you rely on. Since your cell phone is part of your belongings, it’s natural to assume it falls under that umbrella too. But does it? Well… yes and no.

If you’ve been hearing about “paper tablets” and wondering what they actually are, you’re not alone. The name sounds almost too simple. Are they digital notebooks? Are they tablets? Do they connect to the internet? Can they replace an iPad? Paper tablets sit in a category of their own.

We rely on our phones for just about everything — staying connected, managing work, and capturing memories. So when something happens to it, the stress (and the cost) can be huge. With new smartphones now costing as much as a laptop (or even more), it's only natural to want to protect your investment from everyday accidents.

When your school invests in devices for students, protecting that investment is essential. With every student carrying a Chromebook or some other device, accidents like cracked screens, drops, or spills are bound to happen – in classrooms, hallways, or cafeterias. And the cost of replacing or repairing devices can add up quickly.

Apple has done it again – this time with the iPhone Air, released in September 2025. Borrowing the “Air” branding from the MacBook Air and iPad Air, Apple is aiming for one thing above all: unmatched portability. At just 5.6mm thin and 165g, this is the slimmest, lightest iPhone ever built. But that slimness comes with compromises that may leave some buyers hesitating.

Apple released the iPhone 17 on September 19, 2025, alongside the ultra-thin iPhone Air and the high-end 17 Pro and Pro Max. But with the iPhone 16 still around – and now $100 cheaper – many buyers are asking the same question: should you upgrade to the new iPhone 17 or save some money and pick up last year’s model? To make the decision easier, we’ve compared the two devices across design, performance, cameras, and more.

We’ve all heard about 5G, but what exactly is it – and what difference does it make in your everyday life? If your phone can load a website instantly, stream without buffering, or stay connected in a packed stadium, that’s what 5G technology makes possible. But beyond just faster internet, 5G is transforming the way we live, work, and connect.

Roblox is a place where kids can play, create, and connect with friends. But like any online platform, it also attracts scammers looking to take advantage of young players.
