The Tensor G3 found in the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro has so far disappointed when compared to its competition, making it imperative for Google to switch over to a fully custom solution to rival Apple’s A-series and the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 4. Unfortunately, it will take some time for the rumored Tensor G5 to arrive, but according to the latest update, it will be mass produced on TSMC’s N3E process, the same one used to fabricate next-generation SoCs for Qualcomm and MediaTek. Tensor G4 may not utilize any TSMC node due to high costs; Google is likely […]

Apple’s MacBook Pro lineup has been praised for having the best build qualities for any portable notebook. That unibody chassis gives structural integrity like no other, but the internal issues and the arrangement of the components are an entirely different story. Every portable Mac features flexible display ribbon cables that are extremely fragile and have to be handled with extreme care, and when these cables are pressed against accumulated dust and dirt, they can get damaged, leaving the owner with an unusable machine. These incidents are being referred to as ‘dust door.’ MacBook Pro models sold between 2016 and 2020 […]
Huawei has witnessed the most traction in the Chinese smartphone market, according to the latest research, as its Mate 60 lineup continues to outsell the competition, particularly Apple’s iPhone 15 models. While the company’s dominance continues to be limited to a single region, it is probably making other brands extremely nervous, especially going into next year, as the P70’s development is rumored to have started, though there is no word on which silicon it will use.

Apple is known for its walled garden of an ecosystem where one device compliments the other in a way that leaves no room for competitors. From the iPhone to the Apple TV, Apple controls each aspect of the device, pushing users to choose another Apple product instead of exploring the competition. Even the messages app on Apple products is different and only compatible with other Apple products. The green-bubble-blue-bubble war between Apple and the competition is as old as iMessage. Nothing has introduced its iMessage-compatible app, Nothing Chat, which will support most of the functionality. Carl Pei announces Nothing Chat […]
A recently released Red Dead Redemption mod for the Ryujinx emulator on PC adds native support for mouse aiming and camera movement. To date, Red Dead Redemption isn't officially playable on PC. Many hoped that Rockstar would also release the recent console re-releases on PC, but this wasn't the case. As such, those wanting to experience the first Red Dead installment on PC are forced (not literally) to play the game using either the older Xenia Xbox 360 emulator or the more recent Yuzu and Ryunjinx Switch emulators. Recent comparisons have shown that emulating the recent Switch version of the […]
