How to fix the ‘iPhone Unavailable’ error (4 easy ways)

Three iPhones showing security lockout screens and reset options.

From private photos to personal contacts and financial info, your smartphone likely contains a wealth of personal information that you wouldn't want falling into the wrong hands. Thankfully, Apple understands this and takes the privacy and security of your iPhone very seriously — to the point where even Apple's best engineers can't unlock your iPhone without knowing your passcode.

For security reasons, Apple also limits the number of times you can enter an incorrect passcode on your iPhone. Unless you use a really obvious passcode, this dramatically reduces the chances of somebody getting access to your iPhone simply by guessing multiple passcodes until they hit the right one.

I used Motorola and Samsung folding phones. Only one gets this feature right

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Motorola Razr Plus folded in hand.

Software plays a crucial role in any device, but it becomes even more important when you have a limited amount of screen space to interact with the user interface. The Motorola Razr series has always been better than the Galaxy Z Flip lineup in terms of usability when folded. This year, Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 5 closes the gap between the two clamshell foldables by offering a big cover screen.

But sporting a big outer display doesn’t immediately make a flip phone foldable a whole lot more useful; case in point – the Oppo Find N2 Flip, where Oppo gave us six widgets (and added a couple more later) to play around with and called it a day. While Samsung brings 13 widgets to the table, the cover screen software is still not on par with the Motorola Razr Plus.

How one bad decision is ruining all of Samsung’s new phones

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 in cream, blue, and black.

This summer’s Galaxy Unpacked event was the usual great fun. We got a new Galaxy Z Fold 5 with an improved hinge and more powerful chip, plus the Galaxy Z Flip 5 with a cover screen that’s large enough to see what’s going on. These were joined by the return of a much-loved design in the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic, with some refinements to make it even more classy, plus a standard Galaxy Watch 6 and a full new lineup of Samsung tablets.

However, Samsung’s latest product lineup also confirms the road I’ve feared the South Korean gadget maker has been on for at least a few months now. Samsung is getting more serious and less fun and whimsical in its product designs, especially when it comes to color choices.
