The Exynos 2600 will eventually be replaced by the Exynos 2700, as Samsung expands its 2nm GAA chipset portfolio later this year with the introduction of a successor. Until now, we have only heard about rumors and leaks surrounding the SoC.

All modern-day chips offer some form of upscaling technology to boost performance, with Samsung’s ENSS (Exynos Neural Super Sampling) specifically catering to the Exynos 2600. Being the company’s first iteration of upscaling, this DLSS-like feature is shown to deliver 15 percent better performance in a benchmark comparison, and while that’s impressive, we haven’t discussed how it matters little if there are little to no applications other than synthetic workloads to take advantage of. ENSS for the Exynos 2600 will greatly benefit games, but the lack of native ports and poor overall support make Samsung’s proprietary technology useless Aside from ENSS, […]

Apple’s new Liquid Glass UI was almost immediately copied by Chinese smartphone competitors as they integrated the plethora of changes on their custom Android skins. However, that’s not the only design these manufacturers intend to bring, and if they are quick enough, they can actually beat the Cupertino firm in their race to introduce a quad-curved display design, the same one that’s expected to debut on the iPhone 20. OPPO is said to be working on this technology and is rumored to adopt the same bezel-less illusion effect that’s said to arrive on Apple’s 20th anniversary release. OPPO is rumored […]

A company handing out freebies can attract a large customer base momentarily, which may look excellent on Verizon’s earnings call, but Chief Executive Officer Dan Schulman no longer believes that this approach leads to increased retention. In fact, the CEO has altered his stance on where the carrier giant is lacking, and that’s in customer service, stating that if feedback was taken seriously and acted upon, costs could have been reduced substantially and profits could have risen. Fortunately, Verizon appears to have a solution to this. One problem that Verizon has tackled is providing customers with wireless extenders called femtocells […]

The inception of Liquid Glass with iOS 26 didn’t garner the best reception, but Apple isn’t taking a backseat with the UI choice, as iOS 27 won’t revert back to the original design because the company is planning a multitude of optimizations and improvements that will span several years. Aside from Apple typically being steadfast in its decisions, the reason it will stick with Liquid Glass has more to do with what it has planned for future iPhones, with a tipster noting that the California-based giant is set to release the most advanced display design to fulfill its bezel-less dreams.

The iPhone Fold is arriving to the market several years after Apple’s competitors have refined multiple versions, which only means that the next category to introduce this unique form factor will be the iPad. While this product would be the obvious choice, a new report states that there’s a chance that the foldable tablet launch may not happen, and it boils down to reasons such as price, design complications, and software optimizations.

The Android smartphone market is littered with manufacturers to the point where they need to invest millions in discerning features and ‘over the top’ marketing to generate sales. Even after that, the margins often feel like it isn’t worth the effort.

Fortunately, a tipster reveals that, after closer inspection, a lot of these companies feel that the demand for high-end camera sensors is declining, and since these parts are more expensive than slightly […]

The introduction of the unified memory architecture changed the course of the MacBook’s future forever, and while other chipmakers are playing ‘catch-up,’ Apple continues to race ahead of the competition, taking advantage of the current memory crisis by refusing to charge a premium for its products. With this new design, the Cupertino firm is expected to jump several positions in the notebook market, reaching the number three spot by beating Dell. However, a research firm believes that one key decision from Apple enabled the latter to reach new heights, and that was the MacBook Neo release. The lower priced notebook market was […]

A trio of next-generation chipsets for laptops has begun flooding the market, with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme being the company’s top-end version of this generation, followed by the slightly slower Snapdragon X2 Elite and lastly, the Snapdragon X2 Plus. With the SoCs tailor-made to take on Apple’s M-series, the San Diego firm has several options for its partners, but that’s where the problem lies. A discussion on Reddit talks about how Qualcomm’s tier-based approach is hurting its position and how it should only focus on the high-end market before trickling its way down to the less expensive brackets.
