Wireless CarPlay has officially been supported on iPhones since iOS 9, but very few companies have made hardware that works with the software protocol. BMW announced late last year that its 2017 Series 5 Sedan will be the first new car on the road to offer wireless CarPlay starting next month, but Alpine is delivering the feature in a sub-$1000 solution that doesn’t require investing in a pricey new car....

Warning: SPOILERS Below for Happy Death Day 2U: Happy Death Day 2U ends with a post-credits scene that sets up Happy Death Day 3. The stinger also opens up the world of Happy Death Day beyond the college campus of Bayfield University and hints at the greater ramifications of the technology that caused the time loops that trapped Tree Gelbman (Jessica Rothe). The big revelation in Happy Death Day 2U was that Tree’s time loops were caused by a device invented by Ryan (Phi Vu), the geeky roommate of her boyfriend Carter (Israel Broussard)....

This week we’ll discuss some upcoming announcements and expectations including a native Apple Watch SDK and how Apple plans to take on Google Now in iOS 9. There’s also a new bug feature that made some important changes to the heart rate sensor on Apple Watch.

The relationship between Bill and Fleur isn’t one that gets a ton of focus in the Harry Potter series as neither of them are the main characters. However, in many ways, their relationship is one of the strongest of the series, and their romance grows even as a lot of horrible things are going on around them. These two seemed to get along really well, and the only issues they ever had were because of people around them not because of any incompatibility....

The story of the Harry Potter series focused on the titular boy wizard, alongside his two best friends; Hermione Jean Granger and Ronald Bilius Weasley. The fact that the story focuses on Harry, Hermione, and Ron means that they are often the focal point of the errors that have crept into the series. We mostly saw the world of Harry Potter through Harry’s eyes, so the bulk of the inconsistencies revolved around the actions of his peers....

Harry Potter is one of the most popular fantasy franchises ever. It owes its success to interesting characters whose journey the readers got to watch during seven books and the subsequent eight films. But even though the Harry Potter heroes face a lot of danger, one of those they never had to fight with was zombies. Reading about how Harry and his friends and others would deal with a zombie apocalypse would certainly be interesting....

Every Harry Potter fan would love to live in his world - where an owl brings a letter on your eleventh birthday, where you get to learn real magic, and discover a place where dragons are real… maybe without the whole Dark Lord part, though. For Harry himself, there were two clear favorite places to be once he learned that he was a wizard. Hogwarts, of course, where he met Ron and Hermione, and where he learned all the magic that saved him, and the Burrow, the Weasley family home, full of the love, laughter, and clutter that he was missing at Privet Drive....

From the age of eleven, Harry Potter attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. But, Hogwarts was always more than just a school to Harry. It also became his home as well as the center of many of his conquests. From the Sorcerer’s Stone to the Battle of Hogwarts, Harry, Ron, and Hermione made Hogwarts their battleground. Unfortunately, not everything Harry did was beneficial to his ability to continue attending school....

In the wizarding world of Harry Potter, the infamous Death Eaters are known for a lot of things. They’re known for being incredibly powerful, incredibly dangerous, and being more than willing to do anything and everything the moment it tickles their fancy. But one thing they are not particularly known for is shame. They not only do things that most witches and wizards wouldn’t ever even dream of doing, but they don’t care if everyone in the world knows that they did it....

Actress Milla Jovovich claims Hellboy 2019 will become a cult classic. Directed by Neil Marshall, the supernatural superhero film is a reboot of Guillermo del Toro’s 2004 film, in which Ron Perlman stars in the title role. The new Hellboy recently bombed at the box office after critics wrote scathing reviews. Del Toro didn’t receive an offer to direct Hellboy 2019, and Perlman refused to star if the original director wasn’t involved....

Apple’s known for its push for privacy by stating this is a “fundamental human right.” Different from most Big Tech companies, Apple says it’s not a company driven by ads, which means it doesn’t need to collect your data to sell products. Now, a new study shows that, in fact, Apple is the company that collects less data compared to other companies. While Google collects 39 data points for each user, Apple only collects 12....

Apple today officially took the wraps off of its all-new iPhone X, and as we expected, it’s the company’s most expensive iPhone to date. At full price, the iPhone X costs $999 for 64GB and $1149 for 256GB. Many carriers, however, have moved away from subsidized and outright pricing models, focusing instead installment programs. Needless to say, these programs make the price of the iPhone X slightly less intimidating… Each carrier in the United States has varying installment programs, but read on for a full breakdown of each carrier’s iPhone X offerings:...

Earlier this year at CES, Seth and I had the opportunity to test drive the new Chevy Volt hybrid (okay, I actually just held the camera in the back seat) which has one of the best CarPlay screen we’ve seen yet. Check out our hands-on experience with the Volt’s very nice display from our test drive below … You can read more about the second-gen Chevy Volt at Electrek, but the takeaway for the purpose of this piece is that the quality of the display in the car can really make or break the CarPlay experience....

Though she may have started as The Joker’s right-hand gal in Batman: The Animated Series, Harley Quinn has become one of the most popular female comic book characters of all time. She’s received her own stand-alone comic series as well as a breakout onscreen personification with Margot Robbie’s performance in Suicide Squad and more specifically, Birds of Prey. But the best exploration of her character development may be in DC Universe’s animated series Harley Quinn....

Bellatrix Lestrange is usually a go-to character for fans who are obsessed with villains in movies and novels. After all, she pretty much ate up every single moment that she endured during the Harry Potter series. She was truly devoted to her cause, even if there seemed to be no morals surrounding it. In fact, it was a lack of morals that turned her into a visually iconic antagonist with a personality as vile as her beliefs....

In the Harry Potter series, the gap between Lord Voldemort’s progression into the terrorizing figure he became and his origins as Tom Riddle was a significant part of the timeline that still hasn’t been completely mapped out. The difference in personality from what he once was and what he became was striking, made even more evident due to JK Rowling’s retroactive changes. For this reason, we’re looking into the things that were better about the character either way when he was Tom Riddle and Voldemort....
