Redesign your new M6 Mac mini for 2026 with these colorful wraps‎

Apple's M6 Mac mini still comes only in silver, making vinyl skins an easy way to give the compact desktop a more personal look. Our favorites add style without bulk while helping protect the aluminum finish from everyday scratches and fingerprints.Mac miniA vinyl skin makes the most sense for anyone who wants to change the Mac mini's appearance while preserving its compact footprint. Unlike a case, a skin provides cosmetic protection rather than meaningful protection against drops.The 2026 Mac mini keeps the same dimensions as the enclosure Apple introduced with the M4 generation, measuring 5 inches square and 2 inches tall. The shared dimensions keep many M4-era skin designs relevant to the newer Mac mini.XtremeSkins already sells a product specifically labeled for the M6 Mac mini, while Slickwraps, ArmorSuit, and Capes continue to list their skins for the 2024 model. The biggest differences come down to design, material, coverage, and price. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

Wean yourself off the Action Button before you get an iPhone Duo‎

The iPhone Duo more famously lacks Face ID, but it's also lost the Action Button. If that matters to you, it matters a lot, but there is something you can do.You don't know what you've got until it's gone. The iPhone Duo has no Action Button.Not to keep you hanging, the solution to losing the Action Button on the iPhone Duo is to create a near equivalent. You can replace one of the iPhone's regular lock screen icons with a control or a Shortcut that mimics the Action Button.True, the real Action Button still has the same peculiar design it did back in 2023, where pressing it does nothing except pop up a notice telling you to press longer. You can't emulate that with a Shortcut or a control, but you can do pretty much everything else. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

My Apple TV 4K is now 'vintage,' and I'm ready for a new one‎

My 2017 Apple TV 4K is so old that it's now considered to be a vintage product, but that's fine, because there's a new model on the horizon with some features that I can't wait to try out.It's time for a new Apple TV 4K and a Siri Remote with buttonsApple routinely adds products to its vintage list when it last sold them more than five years ago, but less than seven years ago. It means that those products might be harder to get parts for, should a repair be needed.As of October 9, 2026, the 2017 Apple TV 4K has been added to that list. I already knew that this thing was showing its age, and that it was probably time for an upgrade. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

If we trust it, Home Hub privacy could lead a smart home revolution‎

A new Apple Home hub could kill "smart" appliances, but only if Apple can succeed in convincing us its devices don't retain audio and video recordings.Apple's 'not a camera' in-home sensor could mean interesting changes for the smart homeThere is a rumor of an Apple-made accessory that resembles a large tube of chapstick. It would have a sensor in it that captures footage at a low frame rate, but doesn't actually "record" video.I discussed this on the AppleInsider Podcast as an interesting concept. Instead of needing a computer chip in every component of our home, Apple could use such sensors to "understand" statuses around the home. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

At just 5.2mm, Apple's iPhone Air 2 might miss the point‎

Assuming a new rumor that the iPhone Air 2 will be even thinner than the current model is true, Apple is focusing on the wrong thing and might push buyers even further away from its ultra-thin and light smartphone.iPhone Air 2 could be even thinner than the originalAt 5.6mm thick, the iPhone Air is the thinnest iPhone Apple has ever made. Even a year post-launch, it still feels like it could be snapped in half just by picking it up wrong.It could be argued that the iPhone Duo will take the thinness crown, albeit only when opened, after its October 23 launch. It'll come in at just 5.2mm thick when unfurled, but with a chunkier 11.3mm measurement when closed. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums
