The iPhone has changed a lot over the past 11 years, but that doesn't mean it's easy to tell one iPhone from another. Those of you who don't pay strict attention to every Apple event won't be able to see the nuanced differences between the 18 different iPhone models that have debuted since 2007. However, each iPhone has its own "A" model number(s), and this number is often printed on the back of the phone itself in fine print.

Those of you looking to purchase second-hand iPhones, or who have been given an old iPhone, will especially find this guide useful, as it can help you determine the age of the phone, its value, and, ultimately, whether you want the phone.

One of the big selling points for the Xbox One, Xbox One S or Xbox One X is that, as well as more than 1,000 dedicated games, you can also play an ever-increasing library of Xbox 360 titles.

For some time, OnePlus has been known as the maker of "flagship killer" phones. Offering high performance and specifications for a fraction of the cost of big-name manufacturers. But this year, Honor might just have one-upped OnePlus.  The Honor 10 offers specs, build, features and performance you'd normally find on premium flagships, but at a price that undercuts the OnePlus 6 by £70. Here a six reasons why the Honor 10 is the real flagship killer this year.  1. Aurora Glass Design The OnePlus 6 may have seen the company switch from metal to glass for its back panel, but it's still not quite as eye-catching as the Honor 10. Honor's latest flagship uses multiple layers of glass and deep colours to create a back that changes colour depending on which angle you look at it from. It's truly spectacular. 2. AI scene detection Honor's latest phone comes with AI-powered scene detection. That means when you point its impressive dual camera system at a scene ...

The Samsung Galaxy S10 is some way off - in early 2019 - but we're already hearing a bunch of rumours about what form the device will take.  The Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+ were evolutions of the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ really, so we're expecting big things from a reinvented handset next year. Some headline features expected include an  ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor  as well as 5G connectivity  and a super-sharp display.  Galaxy S10 release date The Samsung Galaxy Note 9 and Galaxy S10 smartphones will be launched earlier in the year than their predecessors, according to a report from the Korea Herald. The Galaxy S10 meanwhile would be announced in March if it was to follow a similar cycle to the S9, but it's now believed it will be announced as early as January at CES 2019. Added to this, sources say Samsung may finally introduce its much-rumoured foldable smartphone at Mobile World Congress 2019 in February. What will the Galaxy S10 desi...

Apple will take the stage next week at WWDC 2018 to announce MacOS 10.14, the operating system powering its laptops and desktops. The company uses its annual developers conference to preview all the major software updates it has developed for devices like the iPhone and MacBook Pro. You see, Macs run MacOS. But, unfortunately, there are very few rumours about the next major update to MacOS, likely called MacOS 10.4, so we've begun to wonder about what Apple has in store for us all, and this exercise led us to creating a wishlist. Here are just a few of the features we're wishing and hoping will be included. Let us know in the comments if you have anything else to add.
