Well, we now know when Google could release Android 15 update to the general public and it is not that far off. Android 15 slated to […]
Apple has heavily marketed its iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max as highly capable mobile gaming devices thanks to the inclusion of the A18 Pro. The chipset’s 6-core GPU is said to be faster than the A17 Pro, with the company claiming that the SoC can deliver 200 percent quicker hardware-accelerated ray tracing than its predecessor. Surely, that means we should witness a framerate boost in AAA games, too, right? Not quite, and while it is possible to fire up games like Alien Isolation natively, the experience is different than the performance metrics you are used to seeing […]
Qualcomm was believed to stick with a chronological naming scheme for the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, making it a better representation of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 successor. However, thanks to a Xiaomi 15 launch teaser, we have learned what could be the official name of the upcoming SoC, and just to give you a hint, it is similar to the Snapdragon X Elite found in various Windows-powered notebooks.

The Apple Watch sales ban in the U.S. due to the infringement of Masimo’s patents is not the reason why Joe Kiani, former CEO of the firm, was removed from his position, but the immediate thought would be that the Cupertino giant might have been responsible for his resignation. Quite the contrary, as Kiani’s removal was a decision taken by Masimo’s shareholders following a business skirmish with Politan Capital Management. Shareholders decided to remove Joe Kiani from his Chief Executive position following a proxy battle with activist hedge fund With the removal of Kiani as Chief Executive, Michelle Brennan, who […]
A chip-manufacturing plant is currently being constructed by Samsung and is located in Taylor, Texas. The fabrication facility’s establishment bill is said to cost a mammoth $40 billion, and during this time, there was a report doing the rounds, claiming that the Korean giant had withdrawn personnel from the plant, with just a skeleton crew operating there, as it was unable to improve its 2nm GAA yields beyond the 10-20 percent range. Fortunately, a company executive has put an end to all those rumors, stating that the manufacturing hub will be completed by mid-2025. The executive also responded to the […]

The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro models come with a wide range of changes on the outside as well as on the inside and it appears that the company has paid a lot of attention on repairability this time around. The batteries, specifically, are quite easier to repair with one test showing that it only takes under 90 seconds to replace the battery on the iPhone 16. However, the Ceramic Shield glass on the front and black is not prone to breaking, despite the fact that the devices come with Apple's second-generation technology. A new drop test reveals that […]
The two 4K micro-OLED panels found in the Apple Vision Pro are estimated to cost $228, totaling $456, making it one of the most expensive components to be found in a consumer device and undoubtedly one of the biggest reasons for that ludicrous $3,499 price tag. The Cupertino behemoth likely intends to lower these costs with the affordable version slated to arrive sometime in 2025. Apple is reportedly sampling displays from another supplier, but these will not be micro-OLED technology and will feature a pixel density that is less than half the value that the current mixed-reality headset’s panels resonate. Low-cost […]
