| January 12, 2023. On this day in 1970, the Boeing 747, also known as the original jumbo jet, took its first flight. And now, 53 years later, look at how we're flying. In style! (And with bad Wi-Fi.) | | | ⏰ Today's Big Stories... in 30 Seconds | | | Today We Watched, Read, and Listened to (so you don't have to): | | 393 articles, 21 podcasts, 19 press releases, 404 tweets, and 19 YouTube videos | | | 1. Apple Maps Adds Fun New Ways to Interact With Local Businesses | | Apple is releasing a new update to Apple Maps that simplifies how people interact with nearby restaurants, stores, and other businesses. Companies now have a dedicated page on the app, and Apple hopes this encourages us to use the app for more than just GPS. You can give it a try starting yesterday. | | 2. More PS5, PS4, and PS1 Games Are Coming to PlayStation Plus | | Sony has released its list of upcoming PlayStation Plus games for January, offering 13 games across various genres. From over-the-top anime fighting game Dragon Ball FighterZ, to surreal rhythm game Sayonara Wild Hearts, there should be a game for every type of player. Hope your hard drives are ready. | | 3. Samsung Sets Next Galaxy Unpacked Event for February 1 | | Get ready for another wave of Samsung news and product reveals, as the company has scheduled its next Galaxy Unpacked for next month. What can we expect to see? Samsung specifically names the new Galaxy S series, as well as "new premium Galaxy innovations," so phones, earbuds, and the like? | | | The iPad might be the best-known and best-selling tablet, but Charlie Sorrel believes Lenovo's new Yoga tablet could teach it a thing or two. Hear that, Apple? | | | It's gotta have everything | | | We like our navigation apps (who remembers directions anymore?), but we also want them to be more than just a GPS. If they can't recommend food, make buying tickets easier, or set reservations, then what are they doing? And based on the chart above, we want them to do all that and then some. | | | "Gotta color within the lines." —Kyree Leary, Associate News Editor | | | 💎 You Know You Want It | | Charging docks are great, but ones that can fold to take up less space are better. Take the iLive 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Stand; when fully set up, it can simultaneously charge a smartphone, earbuds, and smartwatch, provided they support wireless charging. Not bad. Hope it works with our phone case. | | | Maybe you're heard recently that the orientation of your PlayStation 5 can permanently damage the console. Turns out, that's not entirely true, and you can continue to stand it up vertically. Crisis over, people! | | |
