Apple’s Potential New Display Technology
Taiwan-based Novatek has announced plans to mass-produce OLED displays using Touch and Display Driver Integration (TDDI) technology by Q2 2025. This technology could significantly influence the design of future iPhones, with Apple potentially being among the first clients.
Leaked M4 MacBook Pro
A Russian YouTuber reportedly tested the yet-to-be-announced M4 MacBook Pro, anticipated to launch in November. The video suggests that the M4 MacBook Pro comes with 512GB of storage and 16GB of RAM.
