One of the benefits of buying a Samsung smartphone over Android phones from other brands, especially Chinese, is accessory support. Last month, we saw the Clicks case for the Galaxy S25, which adds a physical QWERTY keyboard to the device. Now, we have another unique accessory for the series, the Pitaka PinButton case for the […]

The Asus Vivobook 16 X1607QA is one of the first batches of notebooks to run on the new Qualcomm Snapdragon X chip. Compared to the more premium Snapdragon X Elite and Snapdragon X Plus chip devices we have seen in the past, the Vivobook 16 X1607QA is a more affordable mid-range notebook befitting the entry-level Snapdragon chip. Starting at $749, the Vivobook 16 X1607QA — henceforth referred to as just X1607QA — targets students, home, and office users with somewhat basic computing needs. It has a 16-inch FullHD 60Hz IPS display, a full-sized keyboard with numeric keys, and a 50Wh…

While the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max are not expected to launch until September, there are already plenty of rumors about the devices.

Below, we recap key changes rumored for the iPhone 17 Pro models as of April 2025:

• Aluminum frame: iPhone 17 Pro models are rumored to have an aluminum frame, whereas the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro models have a titanium frame, and the iPhone X through iPhone 14 Pro have a stainless steel frame. The back of the devices will supposedly have a new “part-aluminum, part-glass” design.
• Rectangular camera bump: iPhone 17 Pro models are expected to have a large rectangular camera bump with rounded corners. Apple apparently plans to stick with a triangular arrangement for the rear camera lenses.
• More scratch-resistant display: iPhone 17 Pro screens are rumored to have a new anti-reflective coating that increases scratch resistance compared to previous models.
• Larger battery: The iPhone 17 Pro Max is rumored to have a slightly thicker design that allows for a larger battery.
• A19 Pro chip: iPhone 17 Pro models are expected to use Apple’s next-generation A19 Pro chip, which will reportedly be manufactured with TSMC’s newer third-generation 3nm process. Like usual, expect modest year-over-year performance gains and power efficiency improvements compared to the current iPhones.
• Apple-designed Wi-Fi 7 chip: All four iPhone 17 models are rumored to get a Wi-Fi 7 chip designed by Apple rather than Broadcom.
• 24-megapixel front camera: All four iPhone 17 models are said to feature an upgraded 24-megapixel front-facing camera, whereas all iPhone 16 models are equipped with a 12-megapixel front-facing camera.
• 48-megapixel rear Telephoto camera: An upgraded 48-megapixel Telephoto camera is rumored for the iPhone 17 Pro models, up from the 12-megapixel Telephoto camera on iPhone 16 Pro models.
• Dual video recording: According to Jon Prosser, of the YouTube channel Front Page Tech, the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max will allow users to record video with the front and rear cameras simultaneously in the Camera app.
• 8K video recording: Apple allegedly tested 8K video recording on the iPhone 16 Pro models, but such functionality is still not available. With the iPhone 17 Pro models expected to have a 48-megapixel Telephoto camera, perhaps 8K video recording will debut on those devices.
• 12GB of RAM: An increased 12GB of RAM was initially rumored exclusively for the iPhone 17 Pro Max, but later the iPhone 17 Pro as well. This upgrade should help to improve the performance of Apple Intelligence and multitasking. All four iPhone 16 models have 8GB of RAM.
• Improved cooling: All four iPhone 17 models are rumored to feature internal design changes that result in better heat dissipation. A vapor chamber cooling system has been rumored for the Pro models.

This raised the serious possibility of Samsung having to significantly raise the price of Galaxy phones and other products […]

Apple is working on a new version of the Vision Pro with two key advantages over the current model, according to Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman.

Specifically, in his Power On newsletter today, Gurman said Apple is developing a new headset that is both lighter and less expensive than the current Vision Pro, which starts at $3,499 in the U.S. and weighs up to 1.5 pounds.

Gurman said Apple is also working on another version of the Vision Pro that can have a wired connection with a Mac, for an ultra-low-latency experience.

“The idea is to create an ultra-low-latency system for streaming a user’s Mac display or for connecting to high-end enterprise applications,” said Gurman. “Some customers have been using the Vision Pro for things like viewing imaging during surgery or for flight simulators. Those are two areas where a user would want the least amount of lag possible — something that can’t be guaranteed by a fully wireless system.”

Gurman added that one of Apple CEO Tim Cook’s top priorities remains true augmented reality glasses, but such a product likely remains “many years” away.
