Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

The 14-inch and 16-inch M4 MacBook Pro models are expected to be announced later this year, along with a redesigned Mac mini and an iMac powered by the same chipset. Now, Apple typically equips its base portable Macs with chipsets with a lower CPU and GPU count, which makes sense. However, this year is going to be slightly different because even though there are two M4 variants available for the iPad Pro lineup, Apple will use the top-end version that sports a 10-core CPU. The 10-core CPU version of the M4 MacBook Pro was previously doing the rounds, showing that it […]
Jelly scrolling was a main issue on the iPad mini 6, and for the most part, Apple has fixed it in its latest iPad mini 7 lineup.

Teardown reveals that the iPad mini 7 features the same display driver position as the iPad mini 6 If you are not familiar, jelly […]

The device was previously reported to feature a robotic arm with a display mounted on top and a HomePod on the bottom. A prominent analyst has now shared additional details on the device, suggesting that the smart home display will resemble the company's iconic iMac G4 in terms of design. Apple will launch its smart home display resembling the iMac G4 next year Gurman claims in his latest Power On newsletter that Apple […]
A family of M4 MacBook Pro models is expected on October 28, followed by a MacBook Air lineup next year, meaning that Apple will have its hands full regarding launches. The company should finally have some breathing room in the fourth quarter of next year, with the latest report stating that Apple would have readied the M5 to be used in various products, such as the iPad Pro lineup. Based on the launch of the new SoC, Apple’s newly updated ‘Pro’ tablets could either arrive late next year or in the first half of 2026. Apart from the M5 upgrade, […]
Carrier’s trade-in deals are an excellent way to upgrade to a new smartphone without feeling the weight of the purchase, but there is a certain waiting time required for the customer. Unfortunately, on this occasion, a TikTok user with the handle trisha0208 shared a painful story of how T-Mobile lost her and her son’s iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12, respectively, when a company representative lured her into opting for a trade-in offer. She recounts how the carrier has misplaced both devices, putting her in a difficult situation. Customer also received a bill that was $80 higher because her trade-in […]
Qualcomm officially announced the Snapdragon 8 Elite less than a week ago, and it did not take long for the Linux kernel team to post various patches for the chipset. While future patches are inbound that will cater to the GPU, it pretty much means that the SoC can run PC games with the use of emulation, since it might take a while for native titles to launch for the platform. It will also be possible to run professional PC applications on devices featuring the Snapdragon 8 Elite thanks to ‘day one’ Linux support The Director of Engineering at Qualcomm put […]
Apple was previously reported to commence mass production of its affordable iPhone SE 4 in December of this year, meaning that the handset should be ready for an unveiling in the first quarter of 2025.

Pricing of the iPhone SE 4 could increase to $549 due to flagship features; new model is said to ship with […]
The volatile relationship between Apple and Goldman Sachs has not done either entity any favors, even though their partnership resulted in the inception of the Apple Card. A government agency believes there was an influx of unresolved customer disputes because the technology giant failed to send them to its banking partner. When those disputes were sent, Goldman Sachs did not follow the recommended requirements to investigate them. In short, the technological issues that came with the Apple Card, followed by the negligence of both companies, have forced the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, or CFPB, to issue a cumulative penalty of […]
Qualcomm not only significantly improved the Snapdragon 8 Elite’s compute performance by adding custom Oryon cores, but the Adreno 830 GPU and its clock speed increased to 1.10GHz, ensuring that the SoC is tailor-made for AAA gaming up to a certain extent. We see the first glimpse of its graphics performance when compared to the Radeon 780M in 3DMark Steel Nomad Light where the smartphone chipset actually performs better than a GPU that is found in a gaming handheld, the ASUS ROG Ally. As for what this means for gaming possibilities for devices powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite, that […]
The new M4 Mac lineup that includes the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models, a completely redesigned Mac mini, and an iMac are expected to be unveiled on October 28, but given that there will be fewer hardware products as the iPad mini 7 has already been announced, it is unlikely that Apple will host a dedicated event. Fortunately, the company will not be required to, as a YouTuber made a 9-minute video showcasing which products will arrive while also impersonating Apple CEO Tim Cook. The hand gestures and speech patterns of the YouTuber are humorous, not hiding the fact that […]
