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 Galaxy S24 hype train is going as strong as it was a few days ago. After the official announcement, we managed to find out a lot of details about the new phones. Now, the one thing that Samsung did not reveal during the Unpacked event is the chipset availability specific to regions. If you are looking to upgrade to a new device, you might want to find out what you will be getting beforehand. Both the Exynos 2400 and the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy on the Galaxy S24 series are worthy choices this time around. Now, for […]
In the latest 3DMark Solar Bay Stress Test, the Exynos 2400 manages to impress once again as it beats the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in performance stability while running in the smaller Galaxy S24 Plus. In short, Samsung’s latest SoC scores higher than Qualcomm’s latest and greatest silicon. Snapdragon 8 Gen 3’s performance drops to 48 percent of its actual capability, obtaining a lower score than the Exynos 2400 The Solar Bay Stress Test is similar to 3DMark’s Wild Life Extreme as it pushes smartphone chipsets to their limits by throwing a multitude of CPU and GPU-focused workloads to tackle. In […]
For the rest of the year, more Android flagships with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and Dimensity 9300 will be found in a plethora of premium smartphones, but according to one tipster, companies are shifting towards a different strategy, which is equipping its less expensive handsets with the same SoCs. While this will hurt the manufacturer’s margins, it shows how eager these companies are to increase their global market share, even if the outcome negligibly rewards them. Mid-rangers with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and Dimensity 9300 chipsets rumored to arrive in H2 2024 On Weibo, tipster Digital Chat Station has put […]
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 has so far impressed with its suite of features focused on increased CPU and GPU performance, along with support for hardware-accelerated ray tracing, AI, and more. However, for Qualcomm’s latest SoC to have any considerable gains against the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy, the company had to increase its maximum power consumption, which, in turn, negatively affected its efficiency. Let us check out the latest details and see the performance results. Efficiency score of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 suffers 11 percent against the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 as a result of the increased […]
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 might be fabricated on a manufacturing process that is a generation behind the A17 Pro, but earlier multi-core performance results show it even beats Apple’s 3nm SoC for the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. Unfortunately, where it falls short is in the battery life, as one YouTuber shows that power efficiency is just as important as raw performance. iPhone 15 Pro Max with the A17 Pro also ends up running cooler than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, powering the Xiaomi 14 Pro The channel TechDroider tested out several flagships in the battery life test, […]
The Dimensity 9300 shares a unique CPU cluster compared to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and Apple’s A17 Pro, and it appears that MediaTek’s gamble in not using any efficiency cores for its flagship SoC has paid off as its latest chip outperforms the top two players in the latest 3DMark Wild Life Extreme test. However, as one would expect, there is a noticeable power consumption spike as a result of using just Cortex-X4 and Cortex-A720 for the Dimensity 9300 this year. Dimensity 9300 operates at a 19.8 percent higher power consumption than the A17 Pro but obliterates Apple’s flagship iPhone […]
