Sony/CNET
PlayStation 5 owners now have another way to fund their digital game purchases -- Apple Pay. You can now use the payment method natively on your console. However, Apple Pay isn't currently available on PS4 consoles.
Here's how it works.
Navigate to whichever purchase you're looking to make, choose your payment option on checkout, and select Apple Pay. You'll then be able to confirm your purchase using Apple Pay.
You can save Apple Pay as your preferred payment method so it's as quick as using your saved credit or debit card, letting you use it to buy games, add-ons and other digital purchases on your PS5. It could also give you an opportunity to earn rewards if you're an Apple Card* user, which offers 2% cash back for Apple Pay purchases.

You Asked: Panasonic W95A vs OLED, HDMI Cables, and Soundbar Upgrades

On today's episode of You Asked: Is the Panasonic W95A for less than $400 a good deal, or should you go with a more expensive OLED TV? How do you determine which HDMI cables are best? And when is it time to upgrade your soundbar surround system? Panasonic W95A vs OLED Chuck asks: I have now watched every dang one of your videos twice, a few even more! I am sold on the Panasonic (processor, history, your raves, and the fact I have been using a Fire TV Cube for 10-15 years and I am comfortable with it). I can get a factory refurbished 55-inch W95 A mini LED for $377 or a Z85 OLED for $677 (from BuyDig ). I was aiming for 500 range but I can stretch it. This will replace a 50-inch Sony Bravia LED. I can also get a new mini-LED for around $600. Two hours of streaming per day, movies and programming. Dimly lit, but not dark room, generally watch the TV angled out on a wall mounted arm, while sitting at the kitchen table. I listen through head phones. Desires: contrast, true color, detail, brightness, in that order. My worry with the OLED is that bright scene will just look dull, and that perhaps it is outdated tech. My worry with mini-LED is that I won't see that much improvement in picture quality. Thank you for all that you do to make our choices more clear. First of all, Chuck, you win the award for painting the best picture of your setup and goals. That helps a lot, especially since there's a lot to consider here. Without seeing the exact amount of light in the room, it's hard to nail down how bright you need to go. But you mention it's dimly lit, so I think the OLED should be fine. Not to mention, you listed contrast and true color as your top priorities—and that's where OLED is going to be a clear step above a Mini-LED TV. Throwing in my two cents: the only TV I've put eyes on myself in this scenario is the W95A, and I like it a lot. With its added brightness, HDR content looks great with plenty of sparkle in the highlights, and you get considerably more brightness with SDR viewing. So truly it comes down to two things: contrast vs. brightness. As long as the Z85 OLED is bright enough, it's going to be the winner for you. But if it's not, the W95A's contrast should still satisfy you and be a step up from the 50-inch LED TV it's replacing, assuming it's just a plain LED and not Mini-LED. Personally, I'm a better-safe-than-sorry guy. If I didn't want the hassle of getting the OLED, finding it not bright enough, and then returning it, I'd go with the W95A and call it a day. But if you know you'll always wonder what could have been, go with the Z85—especially since you put such an emphasis on contrast, and OLED is as good as it gets. Mini LED vs OLED for an Upgrade @s1mplyjhe says: I'm still torn between Mini-LED and OLED for my upgrade. Currently looking at the LG C4 and G4 or the Hisense U8NQ. What do you think? I'm viewing from 10 feet away in a spacious living room. I like these options. You didn't mention a budget or your current setup, but if money isn't a big factor, go OLED—and specifically, get the LG G4. It's a phenomenal TV and one of the best we saw last year. Rich colors, all the contrast you could ask for, and the brightness of an MLA panel make it an absolute stunner. If size and price start affecting the decision, I'd still lean OLED unless there's a huge size difference. For example, if it's a 100-inch Hisense versus a 65-inch LG OLED, that might sway me. For reference, I have a 65-inch TV in my living room with an 8–10 foot viewing distance, and I love it for movies—especially with the lights off and the TV dominating the room. Between the C4 and G4, I'd go with whichever one you can get at least in 65 inches. If your budget allows a larger C4 over a smaller G4, you might even consider going bigger for a more immersive experience. 65-Inch C4 vs 55-Inch G4 @auggersc asks: Would you recommend a 65-inch LG C4 or 55-inch LG G4? Both are about the same price and I keep going back and forth on it. Straight up, my vote is 65 inches. If you put them side by side, you might see a difference between the C4 and G4, but that's not to say the LG C4 isn't a great TV. Far from it. Year after year, LG's C-series TVs are attractive because of their price-to-performance ratio. You're not breaking the bank for the absolute best OLED, but you're still getting a gorgeous picture that's plenty bright. In this case, the size will benefit you more than the step up in picture quality. HDMI Cables, Soundbar Lifespan, and Moving Large TVs John H asks: With all the generations of HDMI cables, what's the best way to distinguish them? I've been online to look for specific words on the cables—high-speed, high-speed with ethernet, super, etc.—but there has to be a better way, especially when there's no wording. Do you have any suggestions other than plugging them in one by one? Second, you guys mentioned that the TV replacement timeframe to see major differences is about five years, if I didn't misquote you. What about replacing soundbars or sound systems? I have an LG G4 with a Vizio 5.1.2 soundbar surround system. It has ARC connectivity, and after updating it to work well with the TV, I'm wondering if I should upgrade now or wait for newer advancements. And third, what's your recommendation for moving TVs bigger than 65 inches on swivel and mount stands? Specifically, with the LG G4, I grab from the top and bottom to pull it out to swivel. But when putting it back, I have to use the same spots and push from the screen side. Any advice? HDMI Cables: I'm pretty simple with this. I go with what's recommended by the devices I'm connecting. For example, my PS5 uses officially licensed PlayStation cables, and they've delivered the best performance. To be safe, look for cables labeled Premium Certified, which are licensed to pass 4K content. Monoprice offers solid, affordable options. A good rule of thumb: if it works, it works. If your cable is passing a signal properly, there's no 'better' cable that will make it perform more. So look for Premium Certified, avoid overpaying, and buy from somewhere with a good return policy in case it doesn't work. Soundbar Replacement: Since you've got your current system working smoothly, I'd say ride it out unless you're upgrading to something significantly better. Moving from wired to wireless or adding new components at a good price can make an upgrade worthwhile. But if you're happy and it's working, keep using it until something breaks or a major leap tempts you. Moving Large TVs: Honestly, you're doing fine. TVs are more durable than you think. I've seen the condition of some of the boxes that come off trucks, and issues are rare. As long as you're not really stressing the screen, you're okay. If it bothers you to put hands on the panel, use a microfiber towel for extra protection.

Google Confirms Accounts Are Being Hacked — How To Recover Yours

Google has confirmed that there has been a massive spike in the number of attacks against Google users, specifically being password-stealing threats delivered by email, which increased by 84% last year — a worrying trend, Google said, that has 'only intensified in 2025.' If you need proof of the danger of these infostealer attacks, I could point you to any number of reports, but to be honest, you've probably already read them. Far better, then, to point you instead at the advice that Google has issued regarding how to recover your account if it gets hacked. Help — My Google Account Has Been Hacked Take a quick peek at the Google and Gmail online support forums, both official and those on Reddit, and you will soon realize that there is a constant stream of messages from people asking for help to access their hacked accounts. The July 29 Google announcement by Google's senior director of product management, Andy Wen, confirmed the extent to which this is an issue. 'Attackers are intensifying their phishing and credential theft methods, which drive 37% of successful intrusions,' Wen warned. Wen also noted that Google has observed an 'exponential rise in cookie and authentication token theft,' being employed by hackers in compromising accounts. I have covered the steps to take in order to mitigate these attacks in various articles here at and I suggest you go check them out. But what if the worst happens and you fall victim to a Google account hacker and find yourself locked out of accessing your precious account? The account that, among other things, opens the sensitive data vault that is your Gmail inbox. Don't panic, Google has got you covered. If your Google account has been hacked, or you find yourself locked out for whatever reason, there's a helpful official online guide to recovering access in just a few simple steps.

Trump tariffs live updates: Greer says tariffs 'pretty much set'; Buffett's Berkshire portfolio takes tariffs hit; Trump outlines sweeping new deals

U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said on Sunday that the latest round of tariffs are "pretty much set" and unlikely to change. "A lot of these are set rates pursuant to deals. Some of these deals are announced, some are not, others depend on the level of the trade deficit or surplus we may have with the country," Greer told CBS's Face the Nation on Sunday. "These tariff rates are pretty much set." On Friday, Trump signed an order to hike tariffs on Canada to 35%, while he kept a baseline minimum rate of 10% across all partners. The tariffs on Canada went into effect Friday, while many of the other "reciprocal" rates take effect Aug. 7. Meanwhile, it seems even the Oracle of Omaha isn't immune to the impact of President Trump's trade war. Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway said on Saturday that its consumer goods businesses took a hit from US tariffs, Reuters reported. Its consumer products group, which includes Fruit of the Loom and Brooks Sports, saw a 5.1% year-over-year revenue decline in the second quarter. Berkshire blamed the tariffs for delays in orders and shipments. In May, during Berkshire's annual meeting, Buffett strongly defended free trade. He said tariffs should not be used as a "weapon" adding "balanced trade is good for the world." Yahoo Finance's Ben Werschkul has more details on the latest orders here. You can see the new rates Trump is set to levy in the graphic below: In the past several days, Trump has unleashed a flurry of deals and trade moves leading up to his self-imposed deadline: Trump granted Mexico, the US's largest trading partner, a 90-day reprieve on higher tariffs, saying he would extend the country's current tariff rates to allow for more time for negotiations. The US agreed to a trade deal South Korea. The agreement includes a 15% tariff rate on imports from the country, while the US will not be charged a tariff on its exports, Trump said. Trump imposed 50% tariffs on semi-finished copper products starting Aug. 1, but he stopped short of applying the duties to copper scrap and input materials, sending copper (HG=F) futures plunging throughout the week. The president signed an order to end the de minimis exemption on low-value imports under $800, thereby applying tariffs from Aug. 29. Trump signed another order to impose a total of 50% tariffs on many goods from Brazil. However, it exempts key US imports like orange juice and aircraft parts that benefit Embraer (ERJ). The US and EU agreed to a trade deal that imposes 15% tariffs on EU goods. The two sides still need to iron out several key issues.

Greer: Latest tariffs 'pretty much set' and unlikely to change (Reuters) -The tariffs U.S. President Donald Trump imposed last week on scores of countries are likely to stay in place rather than be cut as part of continuing negotiations, Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said on Sunday. Ahead of a Friday deadline, Trump set rates including a 35% duty on many goods from Canada, 50% for Brazil, 25% for India, 20% for Taiwan and 39% for Switzerland, according to a presidential executive order. In trade talks since Trump returned to office, the White House has lowered some rates from levels initially announced, including halving import duties set last week as part of a deal with the European Union. Greer told CBS's Face the Nation on Sunday, however, that this would not be the case on the most recent round of tariffs. "A lot of these are set rates pursuant to deals. Some of these deals are announced, some are not, others depend on the level of the trade deficit or surplus we may have with the country," he said. "These tariff rates are pretty much set." Read more here. Trump introduces tiers for trade partners in latest approach to tariff President Trump is moving forward on a new suite of tariff rates with an approach increasingly focused on grouping countries into tiers, as opposed to a previous approach of simply looking at the trade balance. The new approach remains heavily influenced by either a trade surplus or a deficit but has grown more complex — some might say more subjective — leading to some consolidation in rate levels and the lowering of rates for many countries to a key new standard of 15%. The new landscape was reflected in Thursday night's executive action announcing rates, which centered around the 15% rate set to be in place next week in about 40 countries. Countries facing that rate include major trading partners that recently struck deals, such as Europe and Japan, as well as smaller nations, from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe. More than 100 countries were excluded altogether from this week's announcement, meaning their rate will stay at 10%. Meanwhile, a third group of about 30 countries will see higher rates ranging from 18% to 50%. Trump and his team are taking an approach that could simplify future negotiations and be more in line with global trade dynamics. Read more here.

The US president has threatened to slap an extra 40% tariff on any product that Washington determines to be transshipped via another country. Its believed that this may be punishment, aimed at stopping goods mainly from China dodging US duties. The penalty for transshipping, which is when goods are moved from one type of transport to another, while on the way to where they're going, was included within the White house announcement on Thursday. But countries still do not have all the details. Bloomberg News reports: Read more here. Trump unleashes massive tariffs on Swiss watches, pharma firms Switzerland's exporters are bracing for financial fallout from President Trump's 39% tariffs, one of the steepest rates globally in his escalating trade war. From watch makers to pharmaceutical companies the knock on effect of Trump's new tariffs will be felt. The new tariffs on Switzerland are part of a broader package announced by Trump on Thursday. But Swiss manufacturers warned on Friday that tens of thousands of jobs are at risk due to Trump's tariff hit. Trump's 39% tariffs on Swiss exports do exclude the country's drug sector, but pharmaceutical companies Novartis AG (NVS) and Roche Holding (RHHBY) were one of the 17 global pharma firms to receive a letter from Trump demanding lower prices. "It's a massive shock for the export industry and for the whole country. We are really stunned," said Jean-Philippe Kohl, deputy director of Swissmem, representing the mechanical and electrical engineering industries. Bloomberg News reports: Read more here. Trump unleashes delayed shock for global economy Four months after Donald Trump rattled markets by revealing steep tariff plans, his latest update has drawn a quieter response from investors. Still, average tariffs now sit at 15% - some of the highest since the 1930s - with rates rising further for countries that run trade surpluses with the US. So far, the global economy has absorbed the impact better than expected, but with the new tariffs kicking in that resilience may be tested. Bloomberg News reports: Read more here.

Bloomberg News reports: Bangladesh secures 20% US tariff for garments, exporters relieved Bangladesh has negotiated a 20% tariff on exports to the US. This tariff rate has reduced from the initial 37% proposed by President Trump and has brought some relief to the world's second-largest garment supplier. Reuters reports: Read more here. BOJ: US tariffs could hit firms' profits, delay capex plans The Bank of Japan warned on Friday that profits of Japanese firms are likely to fall this year due to President Trump's US tariffs. This will lead many companies in Japan to downgrade capital expenditure plans. The central bank has signalled caution over an expected hit to the export-dependent economy. Reuters reports: Read more here. Trump hikes tariffs on Canada to 35%, outlines sweeping new duties on dozens of trade partners The White House took a step forward with President Trump's plan to remake the trade landscape by releasing new details Thursday evening that included a raft of new tariff rates now formally authorized by executive order, which set new levels from 15% to 40% on over 70 countries. The move represents a giant shakeup in the US's trade order, with outlined rates that range from a 35% tariff on Canada (up from 25%) to rates above 30% on nations from Algeria to Switzerland. But there's a last minute catch, as these new rates will not go into effect for seven days, instead of a midnight Friday deadline as originally planned — according to the text of the order. India, after initial high hopes for a deal that have bogged down in recent weeks, is set to face a 25% rate but now appears to have another week to negotiate. Taiwan is another top US trading partner and is set to see a 20% rate. The White House documentation released Thursday also confirmed some of the parameters of recent deals including 19%-20% rates on a range of Southeast Asian nations and an unchanged 10% rate on the United Kingdom. Dozens of other nations also saw their tariff rates upped to 15% from 10% — in line with deals sketched out in recent days that included that headline 15% tariff rate on Europe, South Korea, and Japan. But some nations were not included in Tuesday's release — those omitted included many nations with which the US currently has a trade surplus — who therefore are set to see their rates remain at 10%, in a surprise relief for some after comments from Trump in recent days suggested 15% would be his new minimum. Read more here. Trump extends Mexico's current tariff rates President Trump said he would extend Mexico's current tariff rates for another 90 days to allow for more time for negotiations. Mexico was facing tariffs of up to 35% on certain goods beginning on Friday. The reprieve came after Trump talked with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum. Imports from Mexico will still be subject to other tariffs, namely duties on metals and cars. Brazil sees 35.9% of exports to US facing steeper tariff: Sources Reuters reports: Read more here. Trump: Tariffs are making 'America great and rich again' President Trump hit Truth Social again on Thursday posting that tariffs are making America "great and rich again." "ONE YEAR AGO, AMERICA WAS A DEAD COUNTRY, NOW IT IS THE 'HOTTEST'COUNTRY ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL!," Trump posted. The US president also had a message for Washington's federal appeal court judges, who Trump will be meeting today in order to defend his tariffs. "To all of my great lawyers who have fought so hard to save our Country, good luck in America's big case today. If our Country was not able to protect itself by using TARIFFS AGAINST TARIFFS, WE WOULD BE 'DEAD,' WITH NO CHANCE OF SURVIVAL OR SUCCESS. Thank you for your attention to this matter!" On the eve of Trump's tariff deadline the US president unleashed a flurry of surprises. With news of deals with Thailand, Cambodia and rumours of deals with Taiwan. Unless trading partners reach an agreement by tomorrow, many will face higher tariffs. What's in the US-EU trade deal depends on who is doing the talking Yahoo Finance's Washington correspondent Ben Werschkul looks into the detail of the US-EU trade deal: Read more here. Trump back in court Thursday to defend the tariffs he plans to impose Friday US president Trump has already started to defend tariffs via his social media app Truth Social.

Still, average tariffs now sit at 15% - some of the highest since the 1930s - with rates rising further for countries that run trade surpluses with the US. So far, the global economy has absorbed the impact better than expected, but with the new tariffs kicking in that resilience may be tested. Bloomberg News reports: Read more here.

Trump hikes tariffs on Canada to 35%, outlines sweeping new duties on dozens of trade partners The White House took a step forward with President Trump's plan to remake the trade landscape by releasing new details Thursday evening that included a raft of new tariff rates now formally authorized by executive order, which set new levels from 15% to 40% on over 70 countries. The move represents a giant shakeup in the US's trade order, with outlined rates that range from a 35% tariff on Canada (up from 25%) to rates above 30% on nations from Algeria to Switzerland. But there's a last minute catch, as these new rates will not go into effect for seven days, instead of a midnight Friday deadline as originally planned — according to the text of the order. India, after initial high hopes for a deal that have bogged down in recent weeks, is set to face a 25% rate but now appears to have another week to negotiate. Taiwan is another top US trading partner and is set to see a 20% rate. The White House documentation released Thursday also confirmed some of the parameters of recent deals including 19%-20% rates on a range of Southeast Asian nations and an unchanged 10% rate on the United Kingdom. Dozens of other nations also saw their tariff rates upped to 15% from 10% — in line with deals sketched out in recent days that included that headline 15% tariff rate on Europe, South Korea, and Japan. But some nations were not included in Tuesday's release — those omitted included many nations with which the US currently has a trade surplus — who therefore are set to see their rates remain at 10%, in a surprise relief for some after comments from Trump in recent days suggested 15% would be his new minimum.
