Samsung initially introduced the Ballie “companion robot” in early 2020, and it’s still not become an actual product you can buy. That, however, will finally change this summer, when Ballie will become available in the US and Korea. Ahead of the release, we’ve already seen a teaser video earlier this month, and today Samsung is announcing that Ballie will come with Google’s Gemini AI built-in. Awkwardly, there’s no mention of Bixby whatsoever in the press release, so maybe Samsung’s in-house assistant got kicked out. Yongjae Kim, Executive Vice President of the Visual Display…

The OnePlus 13T has been leaking a lot lately, and the company itself has already teased it and confirmed its battery capacity and weight. This is going to be a smaller flagship device with no compromises in terms of longevity and performance, that’s for sure. Today a new leak says it will be offered in “pink” among other color options, though it is an incredibly pale shade – more like middle of the road between gold and rose gold, but not shiny, as you can see from the image below where it’s sitting next to an iPhone. The OnePlus 13T is unfortunately only launching in China, at…

Apple stock is on the rise after U.S. President Donald Trump announced plans to pause most tariffs for a 90-day period. Tariffs are immediately on hold in countries that have not enacted retaliatory tariffs, which means this pause does not apply to China, but it is applicable in other countries where Apple suppliers operate like India, Vietnam, and Taiwan.

While Trump has paused tariffs in most countries, he raised tariffs on incoming Chinese goods to 125 percent, up from 104 percent earlier today. The 125 percent tariff is effective immediately, and comes after China raised tariffs on U.S. goods to 84 percent this morning.

Apple stock is up five percent since the tariffs were paused and 11 percent today, but the market is volatile right now with Trump’s tariff back and forth, and it could see further shifts downward. It is not clear if it was immediately apparent that the pause did not apply to China.

Apple will still be impacted by tariffs on goods coming from China, but a reprieve on tariffs from other countries will allow Apple to bring more devices to the U.S. with little in the way of extra fees. The pause applies to all higher “reciprocal” tariffs that went into effect today, though there is still a 10 percent tariff in place.

Apple’s iPhone continues to be incredibly popular with U.S. teens, according to Piper Sandler’s latest biannual teen survey. 88 percent of teens surveyed said that they own an ‌iPhone‌, and 88 percent said they intend to purchase an ‌iPhone‌ as their next device.

Teen ‌iPhone‌ ownership numbers have increased three percent since April 2024, and are near record highs. The ‌iPhone‌ has long been the most popular smartphone among teens in the United States, and there has been steady growth in teen ownership. 10 years ago in April 2015, 66 percent of teens surveyed owned an ‌iPhone‌.

Though teen interest in the ‌iPhone‌ is high, other Apple products and services are not as popular. Apple has not made inroads with Apple TV+, and it continues to trail Spotify as the most popular music service among teenagers.

45 percent of teens surveyed have a paid Spotify subscription, while Apple Music is the second most popular streaming service with 30 percent of teens reporting an ‌Apple Music‌ subscription. Because Spotify has a free tier, it’s still the most popular service overall, with 65 percent of teens using it. ‌Apple TV‌+ is not popular with teens, and less than one percent say they watch ‌Apple TV‌+ shows. Netflix and YouTube were most popular with 31 percent and 26 percent of teens reporting usage, respectively.

Approximately 31 percent of teens own a virtual reality device, but most of those have an Oculus (25 percent). Just one percent of teens have an Apple Vision Pro, which is not a surprise given the price of Apple’s device. Of teens that have a VR device, 60 percent said that they seldom use it, with just four percent reporting being a frequent daily user.

Piper Sandler surveyed 6,455 teens across 43 states for the spring 2025 report.
