iPhone Duo, de allereerste opvouwbare iPhone


https://www.macfreak.nl/modules/news/images/iPhoneDuo-icoon.jpg
Zoals zo vaak is Apple niet de eerste, eerst wordt de kat uit de boom gekeken en vooral nagedacht wat Apple aan iets toe kan voegen voordat het ook in een nieuwe markt stapt. De iPhone Duo is dan ook niet de eerste opvouwbare smartphone, maar zou een aantal dingen veel beter doen.

Zo belooft Apple een beter scherm, met onder andere een veel betere scharnier, en een speciaal voor ... Lees verder...

Website weer bereikbaar na beveiligingsrisico

Omdat PHP wereldwijd op grote schaal wordt gebruikt, zijn de risico’s niet beperkt tot één organisatie of website. In Nederland en…

Does the iPhone Duo Run Hot? Here's What Reviews Found


Multiple iPhone Duo reviews covered the device's thermal properties, and reviewer opinions varied. Some found that it was just warm, while others thought it was running too hot at times.


Joanna Stern said the back of the device got warm when using FaceTime and taking photos. She had to end a ‌FaceTime‌ call during testing because it got too hot. "Yeah, I'm gonna burn my hand off," she said. "This thing is getting really warm."

Apple told her the warmth was a sign of the iPhone Duo's thermal design moving heat away from the chip to keep performance up. "But to me, it just feels like the phone is really warm," she said.

The ‌iPhone Duo‌ has the same custom vapor chamber setup and A20 Pro chip as the iPhone 18 Pro, but the vapor chamber is thinner. Apple added a flexible graphite pipe in the hinge to transfer heat between the two halves, giving more surface area for heat dissipation.

The Verge said the ‌iPhone Duo‌ heats up when using the camera for a long time, especially if both displays are on for features like Duo Preview. "You can just feel the phone getting significantly hotter when this happens," reads the review. "The phone gets hot enough to start noticeably lagging after a while." The site also said it gets hot when running third-party apps, particularly video apps and apps from Google.

PetaPixel's review unit got warm when gaming, photo editing, or doing anything that stressed the processor, with the heat felt on the right side of the unfolded device.

Mrwhosetheboss did a 20-minute stress test with the ‌iPhone Duo‌ and ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ Max. He found the ‌iPhone Duo‌ trapped heat inside when it was closed, and ‌iPhone Duo‌ performance was below the ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ Max. When open, the ‌iPhone Duo‌ has a large high-resolution display that also affects performance. Mrwhosetheboss focused more on performance than heat, and said the difference between the ‌iPhone Duo‌ and ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ Max isn't "massively" noticeable in day-to-day use.

HTX Studio did a 30-minute gaming test with the ‌iPhone Duo‌ and ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ models. The ‌iPhone Duo‌ was 46.5°C, while the ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ and Pro Max were at 43.8°C and 43.2°C, respectively. The ‌iPhone Duo‌ had a 20 percent lower frame rate than the ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ models and it couldn't maintain 300 nits brightness, dropping to 185 nits.

9to5Mac said the ‌iPhone Duo‌ "runs a bit hotter than the ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌, but not in a way that impacts performance." Tom's Guide did a benchmark heat test and found that the ‌iPhone Duo‌ was able to spread heat evenly across the body of the device, but it was a few degrees hotter than the Galaxy Z Fold8 the site compared it to. The ‌iPhone Duo‌ scored 75.9 percent stability score on the 3DMark stress test, compared to 79 percent for the ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ Max and 72 percent for the Z Fold8.

Gizmodo didn't find heat to be a problem, saying the vapor chamber "does a solid job cooling it down to prevent lag or slowdown" when apps use "all the CPU and GPU cores."

The ‌iPhone Duo‌ launches this Friday, so we don't have long to wait to see if heat is going to be a problem for the everyday user.

Adobe Photoshop 25.5 - Professional image editor.




You can download Adobe Photoshop as a part of Creative Cloud for only $54.99/month

Adobe Photoshop is a recognized classic of photo-enhancing software. It offers a broad spectrum of tools that can turn your inspiration into incredible images, photos, composites, 3D artwork, paintings, and graphics on any device.

Photoshop has become the choice of thousands of creative professionals around the world. First introduced in 1988, it still is the world's leading image-editing software.

Intuitive and clean user interface

Although Photoshop for Mac is the most comprehensive graphics and image-editing software available in the market today, it has a very intuitive and easy-to-navigate interface.

With recently improved usability, this photo-editor has become even more enjoyable to use. The interface loads as soon as you decide to use Photoshop.

A user-friendly interface updates you about new features, suggests learning content, and allows you to quickly access recent files. You can easily pick up where you left or create a new project, access cloud and desktop pictures, and open an existing document.

Convenient content-aware fill workspace

Adobe has recently announced the launch of its new Content-Aware Fill workspace. It allows you to remove objects or distracting elements from your images easier than ever before.

This new option offers an interactive editing experience. Now, you can take full Control over which "good" parts of the picture to use to replace the undesired areas. It allows resizing the initial selection, rotating, scaling, and mirroring content.

Enjoy a range of new tools

The latest version of the software provides a new Frame Tool that allows you to enjoy much simpler masking. Now, you can place shapes and text into placeholder frames and fill them with pictures. To create elliptical or rectangular forms, you only need to select the Frame Tool and press "K."

There is also a new default feature of multiple undo. If you want to view an object before changes are applied, just click Control + Z (for Windows OS) and Command + Z (for macOS). Don't worry about losing any project changes in Adobe Photoshop on your MacBook Air or MacBook Pro. With a new auto-commit feature, they are saved automatically.

What's new in Photoshop

Version 21.2:
  • In the latest version, you can make accurate selections of people with one click.
  • Now, Adobe Photoshop can find and add all available fonts to your libraries automatically when you open a project.
  • In updated Photoshop, Adobe Camera Raw workspace provides all your tools right where you need them so that you can work on your project more efficiently.
  • You can experience higher accuracy with the enhanced Match Font feature that allows vertical text, provides multiple-line detection and offers even more typefaces.
  • Now, you can change the orientation and add a rotation to any pattern in Pattern Overlays and Pattern Fill layers much more easily than before.


  • Create and save your presets for future use or import and export to share inspiration.
  • You can now adjust text alignment, spacing (leading and kerning), and font style (bolding, italicizing, underlining) directly from the Contextual Task Bar.


  • 8 GB RAM (16 GB recommended)
  • 4 GB of available hard-disk space for installation; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on a volume that uses a case-sensitive file system or on removable flash storage devices)
  • Internet connection
