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.

An Xbox Series S hardware refresh was planned at some point, but the project was ultimately canned due to some concerns, according to rumors circulating online. According to RedGamingTech, the Xbox Series S hardware refresh was planned to feature an RDNA 3-based GPU, a general increase to specs, more RAM, and even some machine learning features meant to power upscaling. The project, however, was canned quite early, so much so that even the system's APU wasn't fully fleshed out.

The Kirin 9000S chipset was the first stepping stone that would enable Huawei to stop relying on foreign technologies, but it has been a tough road, especially with the U.S. trade sanctions breathing down on the former Chinese giant’s neck. The company is rumored to want to make its Mate 60 series more accessible to customers from a pricing perspective, and with the P70 launch in tow, that would be the ideal move to make. However, a tipster states that unless Kirin 9000S production picks up, that will not be possible. Upping Kirin 9000S production could pose a challenge, as […]

We know something’s in the works, and a lot of assumptions have been made that 2024 will be the release year, but nothing has actually been confirmed by Nintendo.

[Update] A few hours after teasing that Respawn is working on a Star Wars single-player experience that a lot of people have wanted for some time, Tom Henderson confirmed that it is a first-person Mandalorian game where players will take on the role of a Mandalorian bounty hunter when the galaxy was still ruled by the Empire. Thanks to a jetpack, players will be able to dash, jump, and boost slide in a very fast-paced experience that will reward style. For example, health will be restored based on successive kills. Among the weapons and combat tools will be a wrist […]

TSMC has prepared its enhanced 3nm node for multiple partners this year, a couple of whom are Apple’s competitors, but the semiconductor giant will receive the biggest revenue push from the latter, with a new report talking about a 50 percent boost in orders.

More iPhone models this year will feature a 3nm chipset, with Apple reportedly aiming to launch the A18 and A18 Pro later this year In addition to being mass produced on the next-generation ‘N3E’ process, Apple’s A18 […]
During last week's rumored Xbox town hall meeting, Xbox President Sarah Bond reportedly told employees that every screen is an Xbox.

Samsung and TSMC have locked horns in the 2nm chip race, with both foundry giants earlier said to be preparing samples for Qualcomm on the next-generation lithography. However, when it comes to securing actual orders, the Korean giant obtains a win in that column by bringing a Japanese startup into the fold. It is said that this research firm decided to skip TSMC for its 2nm technology, and we have a few reasons why it would make this decision. Japanese startup PFN may serve as a bridge for Samsung to partner with bigger technology companies for 2nm chip orders Preferred Networks […]
