A Silicon-Carbon Battery Could Have Rescued The iPhone Air
No one ever said, "Geez, my iPhone is too fat; Apple better give me a razor-thin phone next time." Yes, I'm talking about the iPhone Air, Apple's manna for the fashion-obsessed vapid drones. Disappointed with the uptake for its ultra-slim smartphone, Apple is already asking suppliers to cut the production of components for the iPhone Air by as much as 80 percent if Ming-Chi Kuo's latest report is anything to go by. This is not a surprise outcome in hindsight. After all, the iPhone Air does have the lowest battery capacity in the just-released iPhone 17 lineup. Yet, Apple could […]
The M5 iPad Pro: Apple Uses Jet Engines To Power A Bicycle
Apple's M5 iPad Pro is certainly a force to contend with, replete with specifications that would put serious processing machines to shame. However, all that power is packaged within a flawed form factor, one that tarnishes the M5 iPad Pro's true potential, relegating it to the status of an overspecced media consumption device. Apple's M5 iPad Pro Is Brimming With Raw Power, But Lacks The Battery Capacity To Use It Properly The M5 SoC within Apple's newest Pro-edition iPad is an absolute beast when it comes to raw power. To get an idea, just take a look at device-specific M5 […]
MediaTek Dimensity 9500 Shows Google’s Tensor G5 The Way
When MediaTek's Dimensity 9500 chip is able to handily beat Google's new Tensor G5 SoC in one benchmark test after another, and that too by simply leveraging ARM's generic technology. It is clear that Google's silicon design process has left quite a lot to be desired. Google is now loudly proclaiming its disdain for benchmark tests as the yardstick to measure the success of its silicon design process. Agreed. These tests, after all, do not tell the whole story on their own. But, when you are charging Apple-level prices for a silicon that shows a proclivity for heating up at […]
