Qualcomm is expected to switch to its custom Oryon cores when it officially announces the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4. A company executive claimed that the flagship SoC would be unveiled in October, making it the first silicon from the San Diego firm to transition to in-house CPU designs completely. However, this shift could cost Qualcomm’s partners a hefty sum, as one tipster claims that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 will be expensive, and phone makers will have to evaluate the overall configuration of their devices to sell them at competitive prices. Tipster also mentions that Snapdragon 8 Gen 4’s wafer […]

Apple has previously been reported to use a bigger battery on the iPhone 16 Pro Max, resulting in increased endurance from the upcoming flagship. Looking at a previous size comparison between the iPhone 15 Pro Max and its successor in dummy form, the company will have ample room to incorporate a bigger cell. However, that may not be the only change arriving to this model, as one analyst has predicted that Apple also intends to increase the energy density of these cells, allowing for improved runtime even if the same battery capacity is used. Apple to reportedly use a stainless steel battery […]
The Galaxy S24 Ultra is a remarkable device in several ways and one of the biggest changes found in the phone is the fact that the frame is now titanium.
