9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-08-11 07:44:19

A legal ruling could see Apple banned from selling iPhones made with Chinese displays within the US. The ruling is not yet final, but looks very likely to take effect later this year. Apple would be banned from the US sale of any iPhone whose display was made by China’s BOE, after the company was found to have stolen manufacturing techniques from Samsung … Apple sources iPhone displays from three companies: Samsung, LG, and BOE. Samsung accused BOE of infringing on its trade secrets, and filed

I take sleep seriously and will honestly try anything that promises to help me get more rest. However, getting quality sleep doesn't have to involve a white noise machine or other device you have to buy with your hard-earned cash. In fact, as I discovered, it can be as simple as turning on a certain feature on your iPhone. Go figure. For the past five years, I've been getting better, longer sleep thanks to this one hidden iPhone feature. For those who also struggle with sleep and happen to have

Apple Reportedly Taps Samsung Display for First Foldable iPhone Screens

As we saw earlier this year, Samsung Display knows folds. And apparently that innovation has led them to a major win -- producing crease-free displays for the iPhone's first foldable cellphone in 2026. Samsung Display (SDC), which is an entirely separate company from Samsung itself that produces screens for many other companies, will reportedly begin mass production of its flexible folding screens later this year in time for Apple's foldable iPhone launch in summer 2026, as reported by Korea Jo

iPhone 17: Titanium is coming to just one model, and it’s a surprising choice

Two years ago, Apple launched the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max with a big emphasis on a new, titanium design. Titanium remained a differentiator for iPhone 16 Pro, too. But reporting indicates the company will ship only one iPhone 17 model with a titanium design this year, and it’s a surprising choice. iPhone 17 Air will be the only new model with titanium Last fall, as rumors about the iPhone 17 line started ramping up, one of the more curious reports had to do with design materials.

Base model iPhone 17 may be more powerful than previously suggested

Back in May, analyst Jeff Pu suggested that while the iPhone 17 Pro models would get an A19 Pro chip, and the iPhone 17 Air would get an A19, the base model would get the same A18 chip as the iPhone 16. In a note seen by 9to5Mac, Pu now says the supply chain evidence suggests he was wrong, and that the base iPhone 17 will get the same A19 chip as the Air – but with one significant difference … Previous report We’re of course expecting Apple to introduce a new A19 chip for this year’s iPhones,

iPhone Fold could be cheaper than the Galaxy Z Fold 7 or 8

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-13 12:19:36

TL;DR Apple could achieve a lower iPhone Fold manufacturing cost, allowing for a price under $2,000. The iPhone Fold could cost about 4% less to manufacture than the China-exclusive Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition from last year. This is likely possible with Apple opting for smaller screens and emphasizing less on sleekness than Samsung. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is an exquisite foldable phone, but its $2,000 price likely makes it unreachable for many. While Apple is expected to enter the seg

Apple’s been toying around with the idea of a cheaper iPhone in the lineup for quite some time, though it’s never been a consistent thing. Obviously, there was the iPhone 5c back in 2013 as a cheaper offering compared to the iPhone 5s. It didn’t sell too well, but it was certainly its first venture into this market. Afterwards, there was the iPhone SE lineup, which had an average of 3 years between each refresh. Now, it’s looking like the ‘cheaper’ iPhone will become a regular part of the iPhon
