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 […]

Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2, the sequel to the well-received third-person shooter released in 2011, will reportedly feature a PvP mode, revealed in a newly surfaced art book. The YouTuber prdalien0 seems to have obtained a copy of The Art and Making of Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2, which traditionally comes with the collector's edition. Seemingly, the art book has brought in some spoilers of the upcoming title; the one that sounds more interesting and appealing is the inclusion of a dedicated PvP mode. For a quick rundown on what to expect for this game's PvP mode, the art book […]
Intel's next-gen Arc Battlemage Xe2 and Celestial Xe3 GPUs might possibly be delayed or even canceled based on the latest posts from Golden Pig Upgrade over at Weibo. Intel Taking A Step Back On Arc GPUs? Battlemage Xe2 and Celestial Xe3 GPUs Reportedly Delayed Although there's no confirmation regarding a delay, the posts come from highly reliable leaker & insider, Golden Pig Upgrade, who has been accurate on countless occasions when it comes to his Intel and AMD mobility leaks. In the latest series of posts, he talks about Intel's plan regarding its next-gen Arc GPU family which will include […]
The Galaxy S24 lineup was introduced with Samsung’s first AI-powered software suite called Galaxy AI. Given that the new models accounted for 53 percent of the Korean giant’s Q1 2024 operating profit, many would conclude that these features would be one reason for their popularity. Unfortunately, based on a separate rumor, the upcoming Galaxy S25 Ultra will disappoint in the battery department, as it sticks with the same 5,000mAh battery as previous-generation models. However, Samsung intends to raise that backup by up to 10 percent with something called ‘Battery AI.’ Rumor claims that ‘Battery AI’ could eliminate the non-essential tasks running […]
The introduction of Face ID happened with the iPhone X’s inception, and since then, Apple has attempted various technological alterations to reduce the size of the notch. Currently, the company has transitioned to a pill-shaped cutout called Dynamic Island that uses clever software techniques to change its size depending on how it is interacted with. This would mean that the company is ready to take the next step forward, which is bringing under-display Face ID to its upcoming handsets. Unfortunately, one analyst does not believe so, stating that this technology has been pushed back to 2026. Based on a previous […]
Intel's Arrow Lake CPUs such as the flagship Core Ultra 9 285K are rumored to feature a clock speed of up to 5.5 GHz, far less than the existing Raptor Lake CPUs which can clock up to 6.20 GHz. Intel Arrow Lake-S CPUs To Feature A Major Clock Regression Versus Raptor Lake-S CPUs, Flagship Core Ultra 9 285K Rumored To Go Up To 5.5 GHz In a series of posts made by MebiuW over at Weibo, it looks like desktop users planning to upgrade to Intel's next-gen Arrow Lake-S "Core Ultra 200" CPUs can expect a huge regression in clock […]
Huawei was previously rumored to be working on a new silicon that was only referred to as the ‘Kirin PC Chip’ and while its current name was severely unappealing, its rumored performance was the complete opposite, with its multi-core performance said to come close to Apple’s M3. We did predict that it would take a long time for the company to develop this SoC, but we were incorrect in our assessment, at least according to one tipster, who claims that the chipset will launch in May or June and is expected to be found in the new Qingyun notebook family.

It's been over two years since Crystal Dynamics announced the next Tomb Raider game. Powered by Unreal Engine 5 instead of the studio's Foundation Engine, it will be published by Amazon, which also has plans to create an interconnected universe of games, films, and TV based on Lara Croft's franchise. Perhaps that is why movie insider V Scooper (who has a decent track record when it comes to films, apparently) managed to get some details on the upcoming game. According to V Scooper, the new Tomb Raider installment will be open world with Lara roaming vast zones with her motorcycle […]
The Exynos 2400 was introduced a few months ago and powered various Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24 Plus versions. Bucking the trend where past Exynos chipset releases would underperform and lose performance due to thermal throttling, this version surprised us as it kept pace with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, Dimensity 9300, and the A17 Pro, though it fell short in some areas. Now, Samsung is rumored to go down a path similar to Qualcomm, where it will introduce the Exynos 2400+ for the Galaxy S24 FE later in the year. One tipster claims that the upcoming SoC will deliver […]
Apple announced last year that various AAA games would launch for the iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, and select iPad models. So far, the company has done as promised, as we have seen titles like Resident Evil Village, Resident Evil 4 Remake, and Death Stranding arrive at the App Store, delivering ‘better than expected’ performance while offering top-notch visuals. However, the company is not stopping there because in early 2025, a rumor claims that Baldur’s Gate 3, the 2023 role-playing game that has garnered a truckload of awards and positive reviews, will arrive for the iPad Pro. An […]
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 is going to be the next greatest chipset from Qualcomm, and it should be coming out sometime later this year. Although brands like Samsung won't be utilizing it until the start of 2025, the same cannot be said about other companies as they are already preparing to release their devices powered by the chipset, and the latest tip that we have suggests that the chipset is going to show face sometime in October, later this year. Snapdragon 8 Gen 4-powered devices will include OnePlus 13, Xiaomi 15, and a couple more to be released later […]
The Nintendo Switch 2 may support higher than 60 frames per second gameplay and even 40 FPS, 120Hz modes, judging from some recent findings. Well-known Nintendo dataminer OatmealDome took a good look at the latest version of the NintendoWare Bezel Engine which powers the recently released Endless Ocean Luminous, discovering how the engine now features support for frame rates up to 240 FPS. This is definitely an interesting find, considering the Nintendo Switch can only output 60 frames per second. [NintendoWare Bezel Engine] The latest version of the engine appears to support higher frame rates like 240fps? (The Switch can […]
Resident Evil 9 is said to be revealed pretty soon, and the game will allegedly still be released next year. Last week we reported that the next entry in the popular Capcom franchise was internally delayed and that another game in the series could very well be released before it. This information came from renowned Capcom leaker Dusk Golem, who spoke on The Snitch's Discord server. Fast forward one week and Dusk Golet has recanted his previous claim of a delay. If what the leaker has now heard is true, Capcom is targeting a January 2025 release for the game. […]
