[ad_1] Apple thinks that demand for iPhones will be strong despite the pandemic, as it plans to make 75 million 5G iPhones in total.

Rumor suggests Apple’s 5G iPhone could rely on a custom antenna
[ad_1] That’s because, according to the rumor, the thickness-obsessed designers at Apple have a custom antenna — they bought Intel’s tech last year for a reason — that makes the 5G iPhone sleeker than is possible if the company relies on Qualcomm’s. Plus, even though Qualcomm and Apple have squashed their beef over royalties, the […]
WSJ: Comcast might buy the free streaming app Xumo TV
[ad_1] If you’re keeping track of the internet TV landscape there may be change incoming, as the Wall Street Journal reports Comcast — which is preparing to launch the NBCU-powered Peacock streaming service — is in advanced talks to buy Xumo TV. While Xumo isn’t as familiar of a name, its app is readily available […]
Samsung Galaxy S11 renders show an even more complicated camera array
[ad_1] If everything is accurate (and that’s a big “if,” given that Galaxy S11 isn’t due to be released until next year), then the new camera position will likely be welcomed by buyers. As it stands now, taking selfies with the S10 can be a bit tricky due to the offset camera position. Guess who […]
Apple might be planning its own subscription bundle
[ad_1] On one hand, such a variation clause would be fairly common practice given that no company wants to renegotiate all of its deals to offer a tweaked service. And certainly, bundling News+ with either TV+, Music or both, would make good sense as an extra-value add-on. If a bundle did launch, and it is […]
Apple may launch its AR headset with third-party help early next year
[ad_1] Kuo has said in the past that Apple plans to market the headset as an iPhone accessory. It will reportedly wirelessly offload computing, networking and location-related tasks to the iPhone. In this way, Apple hopes to keep the device thin and light. Without providing additional context, Kuo adds Apple will work third-party brands to […]
Verizon could carry OnePlus phones beginning in 2020
[ad_1] This is all still hearsay, though, as neither Verizon nor OnePlus have announced the partnership. Given that OnePlus is now available through T-Mobile and Sprint, a Verizon deal wouldn’t be entirely surprising. OnePlus is expected to unveil the 7T at a North American event on September 26th. With any luck, we’ll learn more about […]
Microsoft’s Surface Laptop 3 may come in a 15-inch model
[ad_1] There may be more shakeups at the media gathering. The Verge expects an AMD-powered Surface Laptop 3 (the first AMD-based Surface of any kind) at the event, although it’s not certain if the new chip option would be available in the 15-inch system, the 13.5-inch variant or both. The October 2nd presentation could have […]
Nintendo may have many, many more Switch consoles planned
[ad_1] Sharp VP Katsuaki Nomura may have also revealed more about more about the display technology in the upcoming Switch(es). He said it will supply its IGZO display panels to a videogame client assumed to be Nintendo, according to an earlier WSJ report. Those panels are used in Sharp’s high-end 8K TVs and Aquos smartphones […]
Apple’s rumored 16-inch MacBook Pro may ditch the flaky keyboard
[ad_1] This is just the latest rumor to come from Kuo. He previously predicted that the 16-inch MacBook Pro will arrive before the end of this year. He also believes future Macs, coming in 2020, will use the scissor mechanism rather than the butterfly mechanism. That wouldn’t be surprising, given all the complaints over Apple’s […]
