Protests halted events in Dublin twice before the Republic of Ireland were forced to settle for a 2-2 draw after Austria came back in the second half of their Nations League encounter at the Aviva Stadium.
Despite a significant security presence, the contest was twice interrupted in the opening 45 minutes, first due to what campaign group Stop the Game later referred to in a statement as a “limited tennis ball protest”, when – around the 20th minute – tennis balls wrapped in stickers featuring the Palestinian flag and the text “#StopTheGame” were launched on the pitch.
Then around the 35th minute a man ran on to the field of play from the opposite side carrying what appeared to be a Palestinian flag and was immediately tackled by security and carried off.

You may have seen several news stories out there referencing this Fixed Focus Digital rumor on Weibo, claiming that it shows the speed and power efficiency improvements of Apple’s A20 chip coming to the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Ultra next month.
It’s important to note what is going on here, because this is not a leak about A20 improvements; it’s about the new manufacturing process from TSMC that the A20 is suspected of using. And even then, it’s not saying what most reports think it’s saying.
Yes, Apple is expected to be the first large-scale customer to use TSMC’s new 2nm process that uses a new “gate all-around” or GAA manufacturing technique. We said as much in our A20 preview earlier this year.

The Apple iPhone 18 Pro, alongside the 18 Pro Max and the company’s first foldable iPhone, possibly called the iPhone Ultra, are all about to be announced in an event in September, it seems. A new report has now claimed a different date for the keynote which I think is wrong. Here’s when it will really be, along with every other part of the schedule — down to the minute.
This date is the one that is most crucial: once it’s confirmed, every other part of the release schedule slides effortlessly into place.
I’ve been banging on for ages about when I think the keynote will be (read this for details of every part of the release schedule), but a new report from the Australian site Channel News claims to have exclusive information.
Apple will introduce at least five new devices at its iPhone-centric event next month, and it's also possible we'll get devices waiting on Siri AI like the Apple TV.
The iPhone 18 Pro is going to look like the iPhone 17 Pro, but with a smaller Dynamic Island. It's getting some internal updates, including a new Wide camera with a variable aperture for more control over lighting and a faster A20 Pro chip built on a new 2nm process. Battery life could improve with the updated chip and an upgraded LTPO+ OLED display, plus Apple could include a more efficient C2 modem and N2 networking chip. Dark Cherry is supposed to be this year's special color, and there will also be a light blue color.

Apple may delay the standard iPhone 18 until early 2027 while launching Pro models this fall, marking a major change to its release schedule.
Apple may be about to break one of its longest-running iPhone launch habits.
The company’s supplier Pegatron recently teased a major schedule change for a key smartphone client. As reported by Economic Daily News and MacRumors, Apple plans to stick to a September launch for the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, but will hold off on releasing the base iPhone 18 until Q1 2027.

Apple is set to launch the iPhone 18 Pro in early September, a strategic timing dictated by multiple operational necessities. This annual autumn release allows manufacturing partners like TSMC to efficiently allocate custom silicon production for high-volume runs. It also enables Apple to secure crucial freight capacity before the holiday season, optimizing fourth-quarter revenues. The September window aligns perfectly with annual carrier upgrade cycles, prompting consumers to renew contracts and consider new iPhones. It synchronizes with Apple's broader ecosystem, including iOS updates and companion hardware including the Apple Watch. Deviating from this established cadence would disrupt supply chains, increase shipping costs, and destabilize carrier and subscription renewal cycles.

Anticipation is building for Apple's next major event, where the iPhone 18 Pro is expected to be unveiled. Analysts predict the keynote will take place on Wednesday, September 9. Apple consistently holds its iPhone announcements in the first half of September, always avoiding the day after Labor Day. With Labor Day falling on September 7 this year, September 9 is considered the most likely date for the reveal. The official announcement confirming this special event is typically made two weeks in advance, suggesting Wednesday, August 26, as the probable date. Following the keynote, the new iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max models are projected to hit stores on Friday, September 18, with a potential foldable iPhone also making an appearance.
Release date: We're expecting the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max to arrive in fall 2026, but rumor has it the iPhone 18 may not arrive until early 2027.
Colors: Possible leaks point to four main color options this year for the Pro models: light blue, silver, dark gray, and dark cherry.
Key upgrades: Besides iOS 27 and the Siri AI beta, we're expecting bigger batteries, camera improvements (including variable aperture for the main camera), and possibly a smaller Dynamic Island.
Pricing: Most new phones are arriving with price increases, and we think a starting price increase is very likely for the new iPhone 18 lineup, sadly.
The month of July was packed with iPhone rumors, iOS updates, news about smart glasses, and fears of an anticipated price hike.
We're back with another issue of our "Apple Rewind" monthly roundup series on Apple Inc., talking about new launches, speculations, and cool rumors you are waiting to hear. In July, we had a platter of rumors about the iPhone price hike, upcoming features, a foldable iPhone, an OLED iPad mini, and the fate of the iPhone Air.
You can check out our previous issues of the 'Apple Rewind' monthly roundup.
The main camera on the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro Max is expected to get an upgrade: variable aperture support. While it echoes previous rumors, the said feature could drive the prices up. It was reported that the iPhone 18 Pro Max will feature a Sony IMX905 sensor in its main camera. The feature is “backed by a calibration block that reads actuator data tied to the aperture mechanism from the sensor's non-volatile memory.”

Apple is poised to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro at its annual September special event, a tradition upheld consistently since 2012. Analysis of past keynote dates reveals a strict window between September 7th and 14th, with exceptions only for 2020 due to COVID, and never on September 11th. A crucial factor is Labor Day, the first Monday of September; Apple never schedules events before it or on the immediate Tuesday following. Based on Labor Day falling on September 7th this year, mirroring 2015, the article confidently predicts the keynote will occur on Wednesday, September 9th. This precise scheduling suggests the iPhone 18 Pro will then be released to the public on Friday, September 18th.
A diagnostics log, part of the trove of internal Tata Electronics files leaked online in June by the ransomware group World Leaks, adds new confirmation to a camera sensor swap on the iPhone 18 Pro Max, which was reported by us on July 2. The log confirms variable aperture support on the new main sensor through a calibration block, and details the rest of the camera array.
The log confirms a new main sensor, a Sony IMX905, replacing the sensor used in the iPhone 17 Pro Max. Pixel size is unchanged at 1.22μm, suggesting the upgrade is centered on the variable aperture addition rather than sensor size. The log confirms variable aperture support on this sensor, backed by a calibration block that reads actuator data tied to the aperture mechanism from the sensor's non-volatile memory. Variable aperture is already available on flagship phones from other phone manufacturers, so the feature would mark a first for iPhone rather than the industry.

Apple's flagship smartphone hasn't taken a year off from its updates since 2007, and barring a massive surprise, 2026 won't be any different.
The Cupertino-based tech giant is widely expected to launch a new lineup of iPhones later this year, including the new iPhone 18, the 18 Pro, and the rumored iPhone Ultra, the company's first-ever foldable.

As we await the iPhone 18 — and its updated operating system, iOS 27 — tidbits of news and rumors continue to trickle out. The pace of leaks on the iPhone 18 Pro in particular is likely to increase after a massive hack exposed thousands of Apple's internal documents, reportedly including iPhone 18 Pro suppliers and tests.

Apple's September launch of the iPhone 18 Pro is a calculated strategic move to outmaneuver Android competitors, including Samsung and Google. This timing allows Apple to observe rival launches earlier in the summer. While Samsung and Google establish higher price points for premium new flagships due to rising component costs, Apple benefits from having this new, elevated pricing baseline already in place, mitigating potential "sticker shock" for the iPhone 18 Pro. Furthermore, Apple's unified iOS 27 rollout provides a stable, day-one experience across all devices, in contrast to Android 17's fragmented adoption. The later release date allows Apple to gather crucial market intelligence, refine its offerings, and dominate the crucial holiday sales period.
