iPhone has a bunch of cool features, but few are as useful as contact groups. As of iOS 16, Apple lets you pool contacts together into groups, making it easy to spam out messages to family, friends, or colleagues without needing to tinker with a bunch of clunky settings. You don't even need any extra software or apps – as long as you're running iOS 16 or later, you can quickly make a contact group on your iPhone. In this guide, we'll show you exactly how to create a contact group on your iPhone, how to send…

Digital Trends Apple makes some of the best tablets on the market, so it’s no surprise that they are constantly in high demand and fetch a pretty high price. Of course, there are some ways around that, especially if you don’t care about having the latest and best iPad available since the older generations tend to be cheaper and have good deals on them. That doesn’t mean they’re not still pretty good, and this 9th-generation iPad is a good example, as it still has some solid performance while being a lot cheaper than…

Joe Maring / Digital Trends When it comes to Apple, we expect a new product refresh annually at this point, including for the iPad. However, that didn’t happen in 2023. In fact, 2023 was the first year that Apple didn’t release a new iPad model at all, which means we haven’t had new iPad releases since 2022. It’s unclear why we didn’t see any new iPads last year. However, that should also be an indicator that we can expect some big changes for the next generation of iPad models, which are rumored to come out this…

Andy Boxall/Digital Trends / Digital Trends Amazon’s Fire tablets are cheaper alternatives to the tablet deals that you can find online, but you can get various models of the device for an even more affordable price through an ongoing sale by Amazon’s Woot.

If you keep delaying, you’re going to risk missing out on the…

Amazon There are tablet deals for premium devices that can multitask between several demanding processes, but if you just need a budget-friendly tablet for browsing the internet and watching streaming content, check out the 2023 release of the Amazon Fire HD 10. It’s just a few months old, but the device’s 32GB, ad-supported model is already available with a 32% discount from Amazon that brings its price down to $95 from $140.

Joe Maring / Digital Trends Since its landmark introduction in 2007, Apple has released 42 iPhone models, and with at least four new ones introduced every fall, the company is showing no signs of slowing down. In all that time, Apple has made relatively few significant design changes. The company tends to stick with established designs for three or four years before changing things up, which can sometimes make it difficult to tell which iPhone model you have —  especially if you’re getting a secondhand iPhone (with…
