Apple Upgrade Program: How It Works, What It Costs, and Is It Worth It?

Apple launched the Apple Upgrade program on 28 July 2026 and retired the iPhone Upgrade Program on the same day. Mac leases start at $24.99 a month, iPhone leases at $17.99, and the financing comes from Klarna rather than Apple itself. It runs in the United States only and covers iPhone, Apple Watch, Mac and iPad. Launch coverage gave you the monthly rates. What it did not give you is the number that actually decides whether leasing is smart, which is what the device costs if you keep it. We ran that calculation on every eligible Mac using Apple’s own buyout formula, and the result is more favourable than the […]

MacBook vs Googlebook vs Chromebook: Which Laptop Wins in 2026?

The MacBook vs Googlebook vs Chromebook question changed twice in 2026, and both changes went against what this comparison first said. Apple raised the price of every Mac on 25 June 2026 because of the AI memory shortage. The MacBook Air M5 now starts at $1,299 instead of $1,099, and the MacBook Neo costs $699 instead of $599. Google’s Googlebook is still not on sale; its official site says only “Coming fall 2026” and still lists no price. The second change matters more than the money. Apple and Google confirmed that the next generation of Apple Foundation Models will be built on Google’s Gemini. The old “Apple AI versus Google […]
