Apple finally included a telephoto lens in its iPhone 15 Pro Max last year, with the upgrade extended to the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. This is just one of the many examples of how the Cupertino firm adopts various standards much later than the competition, likely because it wants to offer the best configuration to customers. One other technology that the company is said to bring for the iPhone 18 that rivals like Samsung introduced years ago is variable aperture for the main camera, and according to one analyst, another supplier will provide these parts. Sunny […]
The use of TSMC’s second-generation 3nm process for the M4 series has made Apple’s latest chipsets more thermally efficient, but that does not mean that a capable cooling solution should be ignored from the rest of the hardware configuration. In fact, depending on how robust that solution is, we can actually get more performance from the M4, as demonstrated in the latest Premiere Pro 4K Export test, where the redesigned Mac mini is faster than Apple’s updated 14-inch MacBook Pro. However, one other hardware ends up taking the crown, and we will discuss why this is happening. The 24-inch M4 […]

Helldivers 2 Community Manager 'Spitz' is seemingly no longer with Arrowhead Game Studios following outings he did over the now-canceled mandatory PSN account linking update. As covered last week, Helldivers 2 was planned to receive an update that would require PC players to create and link a PSN account to the game in order to keep playing. Although Sony and Arrowhead already announced that this would happen earlier this year, this didn't sit too well with the PC community. Thousands of negative reviews followed, and Valve issued refunds - even for those who played the game for more than two […]

Helldivers 2 is an extremely popular game, far more than probably either Arrowhead or Sony hoped for. That said, it isn't perfect, and the developers are well aware of that. In a series of very frank posts on Reddit, Helldivers 2 Game Director and Arrowhead founder Johan Pilestedt wrote: We are optimizing our processes and hiring devs to boost the team. But 100 is still a decent size for a development team, and we are aware of the issues in the releases - we will do better in the future. We want to deliver the best in the industry and […]
