This afternoon we're taking a peek at a set of leaked benchmark scores for the next iPhone from Apple. The device in question is the iPhone 8, a device whose final release date-set name isn't finalized - and whose very existence hasn't yet been confirmed by Apple. As such, take the following with a grain of salt - but also know that the sources we're using here have rarely been wrong - or even really inaccurate - in the recent past.

Today we're taking a peek at the best Pokemon in Pokemon GO for the first round of Legendary Bird Pokemon Raid Battles. This is a list that'll look just a bit different from the other recent top-5 and top-10 lists we've done with Pokemon GO because of the specific opponents we're facing. Instead of taking on the whole Pokemon GO universe, we're rallying against Lugia, Articuno, Moltres, and Zapados!

This morning a set of images leaked with iPhone 8's name on them - figuratively, of course, but still - this leads to the next big mystery. The next phone from Apple will very likely be part of a set of three, the other two set in the standard line of phones as iPhone 7s and iPhone 7s Plus. But the leak today suggests that the iPhone 8 - or whatever Apple ends up calling it - will be coiled for the strike as the most unique iPhone yet.

The iPhone 8's final design and software implementation aren't yet final, but Apple's public moves in the past few years give us a good indication of what we're about to get. With the next set of iPhones, we'll get a span of prices and functionality, starting with a device that's very similar to what we've got right now (in stores right this minute). There'll also quite possibly be a device we've thus far been calling "iPhone 8" - though it could well be called something else, like iPhone Pro, iPhone Edition, etcetera.

Google's Trusted Contacts app has finally arrived on iOS, giving iPhone users the same location-sharing ability as the Android version of the app. With this, users are able to share their location with someone they trust -- a friend or family member, for example -- as well as giving these people access to certain information such as whether their phone has moved recently or if their battery is on the brink of powering down.

Apple may have been fairly quiet about its Clips app since the iPhone video editing tool went live in April, but it's getting a big update today. Clips 1.1 is available to download in the App Store, but if you bought an iOS device recently you well already have it. Launched alongside, rather than replacing iMovie for iOS, Clips was intended to address the concern that its existing video editing tool was a little too serious and fairly complex.

Surprise, a new Pokemon GO update has been released just before Pokemon GO Fest. This version of the software allows a whole lot of speculation to happen - and makes for some very interesting solidification of clues we've spoken of in the past. What's most interesting about Pokemon GO 0.69.0 for Android and 1.39.0 for iPhone is the appearance of one brand new graphic - the LEGENDARY RAID PASS!

This new crossover is being revealed just in time for San Diego Comic-Con, which officially kicks off tomorrow and runs through Sunday, July 23.
