The leaks were all true: the Apple Watch 3 (or, technically, the Apple Watch Series 3) builds on the previous iteration by working without the phone anywhere nearby, as well as a faster processor.
The new device isn't a huge upgrade on the previous iteration by any means, but it does come with some useful updates that make it worth checking out – especially if you like to leave your phone at home for whatever reason when you're heading out the door.

We've just got the box into our testing labs - get ready for our full review very soon! But in the mean time, here's a cheeky unboxing for you to enjoy...
The Apple Watch 3 now adds in LTE connectivity, so you'll be able to stay connected on the move, which will make it a better standalone device if you don't fancy lugging a massive handset with you.
The Watch 3 also completely replaces the Watch 2 - you can't by the latter device from Apple, but there is a non-LTE option if you just want the GPS model of the newest Apple Watch.
Update: Apple has published the battery life expectations for the Apple Watch 3 - with an hour of LTE talk time but improved workout-tracking duration, and we've got more info on the pricing to connect the Watch 3 to your phone contract.

MEET THE GEEK WHO TRACKS ROGUE SATELLITES WITH COAT HANGERS

EVERY 95 MINUTES,  the Chinese satellite Zhuhai-1 02 makes a full pass around the planet, its solar-panel arms extending from its boxy body as it observes Earth. Sometimes, its path takes it over Pueblo, Colorado. There, more than 300 miles below, Mike Coletta’s receiving station can pick up Zhuhai’s transmissions. Because as sophisticated as space technology is, the terrestrial tech necessary to make contact with celestial satellites is surprisingly low. Coletta just has four TV antennas—the kind that look like 2-D pine trees—each pointed in a cardinal direction. They’re bolted into place along garage beams, a patio post, and the rooftop of his house. Inside his home office, on Tuesday, Coletta waits for Zhuhai's signals to appear. He sits in front of a laptop and an iPad, a big shelved monitor hovering above. Coletta has, since 2012, spent his free time eavesdropping on the sky, picking up satellite signals—signals that, for the most part, were never meant for hi...

THIS RADIO HACKER COULD HIJACK CITYWIDE EMERGENCY SIRENS TO PLAY ANY SOUND

-

At exactly noon on the first Tuesday after Balint Seeber moved from Silicon Valley to San Francisco in late 2015, the Australian radio hacker and security researcher was surprised to discover a phenomenon already known to practically every other resident of the city: a brief, piercing wail that rose and then fell, followed by a man's voice: "This is a test. This is a test of the outdoor warning system. This is only a test." The next week, at exactly the same time, Seeber heard it again. A few weeks after that, Seeber found himself staring up from his bicycle at a utility pole in the city's SoMa neighborhood, examining one of the more than 100 sirens that produced that inescapable emergency test message around the city. At the top, he noticed a vertical antenna; it seemed to be receiving signals via radio, not wires. The thought came to him: Could a hacker like him hijack that command system to trigger all the sirens around the whole city at will, or to use th...
