Master & Dynamic MW65 over-ear headphones launched this week, the company’s first ever noise-canceling headphones.

The fact that the show remains popular to this day is a testament to its quality, but the characters and their defining characteristics are also a reason why....

Before Christmas, the Apple community spurred a huge controversy as Macotakara claimed that the iPhone 7 will ditch the 3.5 mm standard headphone port completely, to enable further thinness and internal space savings for other components. The 3.5mm jack is a hundred-year old technology based on analogue signals, so although it is ripe for replacement, almost all headphones sold today rely on the 3.5mm jack. Cutting the port for the iPhone 7 could be a painful transition....

MacRumors has posted additional images of a prototype iPhone 5S this morning, adding to the increasing leaks of the upcoming device.

In addition, the new iPhone will sport dual-LED flash. Of note, the two LEDs seem to be different colors: The different colors could be exactly what analyst Ming Chi Kuo called “smart flash”, as we reported back in March....

The controversy began several weeks ago when filmmaker Martin Scorsese revealed his disdain for the genre, stating that Marvel movies weren’t cinema....
