While Apple does provide a first-party battery replacement service for the wireless earphones, you may want to think twice before taking the plunge.

Pwn20wnd says full iOS 12 support for 4K devices is coming soon

Good news for those of you waiting for an iOS 12 jailbreak on any 4K devices – hacker and unc0ver lead developer Pwn20wnd announced Monday morning that an update would be coming to the unc0ver jailbreak tool very soon.
