If you've been following the chip industry over the past few years, you know that Apple's relationship with Intel has been, well, complicated. After famously ditching Intel's processors for their own custom silicon in 2020, it seemed like that chapter was closed for good. But here's the thing about the tech industry—just when you think you've got it figured out, something interesting happens.

When I first caught wind of the iPhone Air's resale performance, I'll admit I had to double-check the numbers. We're talking about a device that's losing nearly half its value in just ten weeks—something that's frankly unprecedented in recent iPhone history. SellCell's comprehensive study examined 52 iPhone models since the iPhone 14 series, revealing the iPhone Air experienced depreciation rates reaching up to 47.4%, marking what they describe as the "worst resale drop of any iPhone since...

Apple's foldable iPhone has been one of the most anticipated devices in recent tech rumors, and now fresh reports suggest the company is taking a predictable yet significant step with its connectivity approach. Recent leaks from a well-known Chinese source indicate that Apple's first foldable device will eliminate physical SIM card slots entirely, according to MacRumors. The timeline for this groundbreaking device points to a late 2026 or early 2027 launch, based on multiple industry reports....

If you told me five years ago that Apple and Intel would be discussing a partnership where Intel manufactures Apple's processors, I would have thought you were describing some alternate tech universe. Yet here we are in late 2025, and what seemed impossible is becoming a fascinating reality that could reshape the semiconductor industry.

Apple's latest legal setback in the UK is making headlines for all the wrong reasons. The tech giant tried to appeal a billion-dollar lawsuit loss, and the Competition Appeal Tribunal said no. This is not just another corporate dispute, but a landmark case that could reshape how we think about app store monopolies and what people pay for digital content.

Here's a deal that has me doing a double-take on Apple TV+ pricing. The streaming service just slashed its monthly rate to $5.99 for new and returning subscribers (Tom's Guide), which represents a substantial actually 53.89% to be exact from the current $12.99 monthly rate (ZDNET). What makes this particularly compelling is that this promotional pricing essentially takes Apple TV+ back to what users were paying three years ago, before the service underwent multiple price increases that brought...

Apple has just struck what could be its most significant business arrangement in China, and it may reshape how the company approaches one of its most crucial markets. The tech giant recently completed a landmark partnership with Tencent that opens up billions in previously untapped revenue (https://inews.zoombangla.com/apple-secures-billions-in-neasdfas/). It follows more than a year of complex negotiations (according to industry sources)...

Apple's streaming platform just rolled out what might be its most aggressive pricing move yet. Right now, you can snag Apple TV+ for $5.99 per month instead of the usual $12.99 – but here's what makes this different from your typical streaming discount. This Black Friday deal only runs for six months and requires a specific approach that actually reveals quite a bit about Apple's broader streaming strategy.

Apple's silicon roadmap is heating up, and 2026 is shaping up to be a significant year for Mac users. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reports that Apple will introduce the M5 Pro, M5 Max, and M5 Ultra processors during the first half of 2026. What makes this particularly interesting is that Apple is bypassing the M4 Ultra entirely, jumping straight to the M5 generation for its most powerful desktop chips. The company has already begun internal testing of prototypes featuring these new processors. No M4...

If you've been wondering where Apple's iOS journey is headed, this week feels like a rare convergence moment. iOS 26.1 just landed, the iOS 26.2 developer beta is already in the wild, and early whispers about the iPhone 18 are making the rounds. It is like seeing Apple's playbook from three angles at once. The pattern is hard to miss, bend to real feedback, and keep the vision intact.

Apple just announced something that's going to shake up its leadership landscape in a big way. Two of the company's most influential executives—General Counsel Kate Adams and Environment Chief Lisa Jackson—are both planning to retire in 2026. This isn't just your typical executive shuffle; we're talking about leaders who've shaped Apple's legal strategy and environmental vision for over a decade. Jackson currently serves as Apple's vice president of Environment, Policy and Social Initiatives,...

Apple's decision to open up its Battersea Power Station holiday projections to the public marks a fascinating shift in how tech giants approach community engagement. What started as an exclusive showcase for renowned artists has transformed into something much more democratic—and honestly, much more interesting. The winners of Apple's "Your Tree on Battersea" competition are now seeing their iPad-created Christmas trees illuminate one of London's most iconic landmarks, according to MacRumors.

Looking at the latest MacBook Pro deal, it's hard not to get excited about what Apple is offering right now. The M5 MacBook Pro with 24GB of RAM has dropped to a record-low $1,499, which is a substantial $300 discount that's genuinely worth paying attention to. What makes this particularly interesting is the timing—the M5 chip just debuted in late October (Kotaku), making this discount unusually aggressive for such fresh hardware.

Russia's digital landscape has taken another dramatic turn, with authorities now targeting some of the world's most widely used communication platforms. The latest restrictions represent a significant escalation in the country's ongoing campaign to control digital communications, as reported by TechRadar. Russian communications regulator Roskomnadzor has officially added FaceTime and Roblox to its growing list of prohibited services, according to the same report. This development follows a...

Russia's state communications regulator delivered a bombshell announcement Thursday, officially restricting Apple's FaceTime video-calling service across the country. The watchdog claimed that law enforcement agencies identified the platform as a tool for organizing terrorist activities and recruiting perpetrators, according to MacDailyNews. What makes this particularly striking is that authorities provided no supporting evidence for these serious allegations, as reported by MacDailyNews....

Intel might be making a surprising comeback into Apple's chip manufacturing plans, marking a potential shift in the company's silicon strategy. Recent reports from renowned supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo suggest that Intel could begin producing Apple's entry-level M-series processors as early as mid-2027, according to MacRumors.

Looking at this massive regulatory shake-up, it's clear that Apple's European operations are about to get a lot more complicated. The European Union has just dropped a bombshell on two of Apple's key services—Apple Maps and Apple Ads—claiming they've grown big enough to warrant the same strict oversight that already covers the App Store and iOS platforms.

The race for AI supremacy just took another dramatic turn, and Apple's finding itself watching key talent walk out the door faster than new hires can walk in. Meta's latest coup involves snagging Ke Yang, Apple's former Siri strategist, marking yet another high-profile defection that signals more than just individual career moves—it's reshaping the entire competitive landscape of artificial intelligence development.

The mobile gaming landscape is experiencing a seismic shift, and it's coming from an unexpected champion. MLB The Show 25, the premier baseball simulation that has dominated consoles for two decades, is officially making its debut on iPhone. This isn't just another mobile adaptation—it represents a fundamental reimagining of what premium gaming can be on mobile devices.

If you had told me just a year ago that Apple would become the sole driving force behind smartphone growth during China's biggest shopping event, I probably would have raised an eyebrow. But that's exactly what happened during this year's Singles' Day festival, and the numbers tell a remarkable turnaround story.

You know that feeling when you unlock your phone and suddenly Apple Podcasts is open, showing you some random spirituality podcast from 2018 that you definitely didn't tap on? Well, turns out that's not just a quirky glitch—it's actually someone trying to hack you.

Google just pulled off something remarkable—and risky. Their newest Android devices can now seamlessly share files with iPhones through a direct connection to Apple's AirDrop protocol, according to tech-ish. This isn't a partnership or official collaboration; it's Google essentially reverse-engineering one of Apple's most beloved ecosystem features. The implementation uses Rust programming language for enhanced security and currently works exclusively on Pixel 10 devices, as reported by PC Mag....

Apple's supply chain dynamics for the iPhone 17 have taken a dramatic turn, with China's BOE Technology Group facing significant challenges that are reshaping the display manufacturing landscape. The Chinese panel maker, which once seemed poised to expand its role in Apple's ecosystem, now finds itself marginalized in what represents one of the most significant supply chain shifts in recent iPhone history. This development highlights the complex interplay of quality control, legal challenges,...

When Apple's CEO reached retirement age on 2025-11-01 (Saturday), the tech world collectively held its breath. Tim Cook celebrated his 65th birthday on November 1st, according to CNET, a milestone that reignited talk about Apple's future leadership. He has not announced plans to step down. Still, CNET reports that Apple is already weighing who might take the reins, and the company is building out succession plans to keep any handoff smooth, according to the same report.

Tim Cook's recent commitment to deepen Apple's China investment lands at a delicate intersection of geopolitics and corporate calculus. His pledge during a Beijing visit is more than routine. It is a bet on managing one of tech's most tangled relationships. How high are the stakes?According to CFR analysis, China's gains associated with the Apple supply chain are estimated at roughly $360 billion a year from its Apple partnership, roughly the GDP of South Africa. And most iPhones worldwide...

Apple's App Tracking Transparency feature has been causing waves across the tech industry since its introduction in 2021, but now it's facing some serious regulatory scrutiny in Germany. After three years of extensive investigation, the Bundeskartellamt—Germany's competition authority—has finally made its move.

When you think about Apple Health today, you're looking at a comprehensive data collection platform that tracks everything from your daily steps to your heart rate variability. But what if that same app could actually understand your health patterns and provide intelligent insights about what all that data means? That's exactly what's coming with Apple's upcoming Health+ platform and its integration with ChatGPT, and it represents a fundamental shift from passive health monitoring to active...

Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework launched in 2021 with the promise of giving users more control over their privacy. But now, German antitrust authorities are asking a much more pointed question: Is this really about protecting users, or is Apple using privacy as a clever cover for crushing competition?

When tech companies start pushing back against government mandates, you know something consequential is brewing. Right now, we're witnessing what could be the most significant regulatory standoff in the smartphone industry since Apple refused to unlock iPhones for the FBI. But this time, the stakes might be even higher—we're talking about permanent government software on every device sold in one of the world's largest smartphone markets.

Looking at the escalating tensions between the world's most privacy-conscious tech giant and one of its most important emerging markets, we're witnessing a fundamental clash between corporate principles and government authority. When India's Department of Telecommunications issued its mandate on November 28, requiring all smartphone manufacturers to preload the Sanchar Saathi app on new devices, it created more than just another regulatory dispute—it set up a test case for digital sovereignty...

Black Friday has arrived early for Apple enthusiasts, and this year's deals are genuinely impressive. Current discounts span Apple's entire product lineup, with savings that rival or exceed previous Black Friday events. The iPad Pro is seeing unprecedented $400 discounts, while MacBook Air models are starting as low as $749. What makes this deal season particularly noteworthy is the timing—retailers are offering these substantial savings weeks before traditional Black Friday shopping begins.
