Apple's tariff costs and iPhone sales are soaring - how long until device prices are too?

Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET ZDNET's key takeaways Tariffs cost Apple approximately $800 million last quarter. That bill will go up to about $1.1 billion this quarter. Apple says 1 in 10 iPhone sales in April were due to tariff fears. Apple earnings calls usually have a theme, and there's usually a word associated with that theme that ends up being repeated many times throughout the call. During yesterday's call, the theme and repeated word was "tariffs." iPhone sales were up Because of

Klarna might reschedule its IPO for September

In Brief Klarna might look to IPO as early as September, sources told Bloomberg. The news comes as fintech stock prices surge and the US IPO market strengthens.

At the time, Klarna was looking to raise at least $1 billion and nab a $15 billion valuation. By June, however, Klarna’s co-founder and CEO, Sebastian Siemiatkowski, took a different turn. When as

New iPhone 17 Pro Max Rumors Emerge, and Now 7 Features Might Sway My Upgrade Decision

We're a little more than a month out from the expected reveal of the new iPhone 17 models, and rumors about what's coming are hard to ignore. So although I try to wait calmly each year, what I'm hearing about the iPhone 17 Pro Max is making me impatient. They're also causing me to second-guess my longstanding stance on buying the standard-size iPhone Pro, since historically the Max model has gotten some new features ahead of the regular model, like the 5x zoom introduced with the iPhone 15 Pro M

Nvidia denies its China-bound H20 AI chips have 'backdoors' after Beijing's security concerns

China is one of Nvidia's largest markets, particularly for data centers, gaming and artificial intelligence applications. Nvidia has denied that its chips have any "backdoors" that would allow anyone to access or control them, after Chinese regulators summoned officials from the company to explain risks associated with its H20 chip. While Nvidia was given assurances by Washington that it would be allowed to resume exports of its made-for-China H20 general processing units, the AI chips have at

Apple accidentally helps promote Samsung’s new foldable (Update: Apple vindicated)

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR The Apple support account appeared to post a Galaxy Z Flip 7 promo video on Weibo. The post was quickly deleted, but not before it was spotted and shared by others. It has since become apparent that the error was caused by Weibo’s servers, rather than an Apple employee’s mistake. Update: July 31, 2025 (5:10 PM ET): It looks like Apple may not have hit the wrong upload button after all. A Chinese tech blogger says the incident was due to a Weibo client

Judge Accused of Using AI to Issue Garbled Ruling

Earlier this month, a federal judge in Mississippi delivered a ruling that was riddled with factual errors, from naming plaintiffs that didn't exist to making up quotes from a state law to citing cases that don't appear to exist. As Mississippi Today reports, US district judge Henry Wingate's baffling temporary restraining order immediately raised concerns that it had been generated by a AI. We've already come across plenty of instances of lawyers getting caught red-handed using tools like Ope

Iconiq’s Will Griffith explains how his firm celebrated Figma’s IPO and why investors sold shares

Will Griffith had only been two months in his job as a venture investor for Iconiq when he met a 19-year-old college dropout named Dylan Field. This would lead to one of his signature seed investments, in a startup called Figma. On Thursday, Figma went public with the stock popping from the $33 IPO opening price to close at $115.50 and a $47 billion market cap.
