Samsung excluded from the production of the new iPhone components 7

According to the Korean online magazine The Electronics Times, the Taiwanese company TSMC, or Taiwan Semiconductor Manufactory Company, has reached an agreement with Apple that will make it the only supplier of processors that will be within the new generation of iPhone. All this to the detriment of Samsung that, on occasions of previous generations of the iPhone had just joined the company based in Taiwan in the component production.

According to TSMC would surpass Samsung in the Cupertino giant preferences because of the production lines ready for the realization of the chip with the production process to 10 nanometers. According to the timetable released TSMC is expected to start mass production of the chip dedicated to the new iPhone 7 in the course of next summer, ahead of the smartphone's release scheduled for September. The chip will probably be called Apple A10.

It is not the first time that Samsung is relieved of her duties. Even when Apple commissioned the old A8 production was totally entrusted to TSMC, only to backtrack and re-divide the contract for the latest A9 between two different manufacturers.

Obviously, with a competing company like Samsung is used in the production of one of the most important components of its flagship smartphone, Apple could not miss the problems. Following the launch of the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, and benchmark tests have shown that the chips produced by TSMC worked objectively better than those produced by Samsung. lower temperatures during operation, better performance and longer battery life are the main differences between the two different types of processors.

There only remains to wait for the new generation of iPhone to see if indeed that of Apple has been a winning choice. What is certain is that all the new generation iPhone will have the same performance, maybe.

The Silent Revolution of On-Device AI: Why the Cloud Is No Longer King

Introduction For years, artificial intelligence has meant one thing: the cloud. Whether you’re asking ChatGPT a question, editing a photo with AI tools, or getting recommendations on Netflix — those decisions happen on distant servers, not your device. But that’s changing. Thanks to major advances in silicon, model compression, and memory architecture, AI is quietly migrating from giant data centres to the palm of your hand. Your phone, your laptop, your smartwatch — all are becoming AI engines in their own right. It’s a shift that redefines not just how AI works, but who controls it, how private it is, and what it can do for you. This article explores the rise of on-device AI — how it works, why it matters, and why the cloud’s days as the centre of the AI universe might be numbered. What Is On-Device AI? On-device AI refers to machine learning models that run locally on your smartphone, tablet, laptop, or edge device — without needing constant access to the cloud. In practi...

Apple’s AI Push: Everything We Know About Apple Intelligence So Far

Apple’s WWDC 2025 confirmed what many suspected: Apple is finally making a serious leap into artificial intelligence. Dubbed “Apple Intelligence,” the suite of AI-powered tools, enhancements, and integrations marks the company’s biggest software evolution in a decade. But unlike competitors racing to plug AI into everything, Apple is taking a slower, more deliberate approach — one rooted in privacy, on-device processing, and ecosystem synergy. If you’re wondering what Apple Intelligence actually is, how it works, and what it means for your iPhone, iPad, or Mac, you’re in the right place. This article breaks it all down.   What Is Apple Intelligence? Let’s get the terminology clear first. Apple Intelligence isn’t a product — it’s a platform. It’s not just a chatbot. It’s a system-wide integration of generative AI, machine learning, and personal context awareness, embedded across Apple’s OS platforms. Think of it as a foundational AI layer stitched into iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and m...

Max Q: Galactic

Hello and welcome back to Max Q! Happy Memorial Day everyone. In this issue: Astranis’ novel approach to GEO satellites Virgin Galactic’s return to the skies News from SpaceX, and more Astranis’ novel approach to internet satellites is starting to pay off Astranis , a satellite internet startup based in San Francisco, said Wednesday that its first spacecraft completed a milestone test and will start bringing broadband access to rural Alaskans as soon as mid-June. It’s a major step for the company, which was founded in 2015 by John Gedmark and Ryan McLinko. By taking a first principles approach to satellite development, the pair bet that they could make a smaller, cheaper spacecraft for geosynchronous orbit — the orbit farthest from Earth and arguably the most inhospitable — and use them to bring internet to millions, or even billions, of people around the globe. Their bet is paying off: The company’s first satellite, Arcturus, launched on a Falcon Heavy at the end of April. W...
