We have watched Samsung and Google iterate on their foldables generation after generation, while Apple has sat on the sidelines, presumably waiting until they could get the formula exactly right. Well, if the latest whispers from the supply chain are to be believed, that wait might finally be nearing its end, and Apple isn’t just planning to join the party; they are planning to crash it with the biggest battery we…

Let’s be honest: for a long time, Siri has been the “dumbest” smart assistant in the room. We all have that shared experience of asking Siri a simple question, only to be met with “Here’s what I found on the web,” or worse, total misunderstanding.

The “Frenemy” Collaboration In a move that likely…

According to the latest Power On newsletter from Bloomberg, Apple is in the final manufacturing stretch.

The year 2026 is going to be a stacked one for Apple’s portfolio, but one of the most eagerly-awaited products is the upcoming foldable iPhone. Heavily rumored to debut in the Fall season this year alongside the iPhone 18 series, it would mark the first time that Apple is entering the foldable phone segment, one where Samsung currently reigns supreme. A surprise shift But it seems Apple is working on an even more ambitious idea, one that is more pocketable, and possibly, more pocket-friendly, as well.

A long-standing obstacle for augmented reality (AR) and mixed-reality smartglasses may finally be on the brink of being solved. A team of researchers led by Professor Sanghyeon Kim at the School of Electrical Engineering, in collaboration with Inha University and industry partners, has developed a micro-LED display technology capable of ultra-high resolution on the order of ~1,700 pixels per inch (PPI).

For context, Micro-LEDs are a form of self-emissive display technology that holds…
