Infinix's upcoming Note 60 series will use Qualcomm Snapdragon chipsets, the brand has officially confirmed today. This is significant because it's the first time Infinix has gone the Snapdragon route for its phones in many years - all of the recent ones have been powered by MediaTek SoCs. Infinix says "select models" in the Note 60 series will choose Snapdragon over MediaTek, and through pre-order pages in some markets it's already confirmed that the Note 60 Pro will be powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 4. Infinix "aims to achieve deeper integration of chipset capabilities" within...
The iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max will cost exactly the same as their predecessors, according to a new research note from GF Securities analyst Jeff Pu, a constant purveyor of Apple-related supply chain information. That is obviously very good news, if it pans out, since the pricing stability of smartphones is anything but guaranteed this year given how memory production seems to mostly be going to AI data centers. Pu says Apple is focused on cost management, based on his supply chain research, in order to keep the prices the same as last year. Pu thinks Apple has been...

Apple announced record-breaking iPhone sales for Q4 2025, which in turn resulted in the best-ever financial quarter for the company, posting $143.8 billion in sales revenue. That's a 16% increase year-over-year, which is quite impressive for a company of this scale. The reason for the unprecedented iPhone demand? Some analysts believe it's the color orange. China seems to be a big contributor to Apple's recent success. While previous quarters had either flat or declining sales in the country, the fourth quarter last year turned out to be a resounding success for the smartphone maker...

That's because the Korean company is now said to be considering re-adding the feature to its lineup as well. The Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S10 both had variable aperture main cameras, but the feature was dropped with the Galaxy S20 generation in 2020. If Samsung does adopt it again, then expect to see it on the Galaxy S27 family next year, so after a seven-year hiatus. It's quite interesting how...
