China's AlkaidSemi has unveiled the world's first SiC superjunction MOSFET rated at 1,635V. The device achieves zero on-resistance temperature drift in its practical operating range and a 166% boost in high-temperature current density, targeting power-density breakthroughs in AI data center power delivery and EVs.
OpenAI says its next-generation chip work with Samsung is advancing. Splitting HBM's internal logic manufacturing from contract production of the compute chip itself, we read the public record to see where the two firms connect and what remains undisclosed.
Apple raised prices by a flat $100 across its entire iPhone lineup—including older models—alongside the launch of the iPhone 18 Pro. This unusual second price hike, coming after a July currency-driven adjustment, shows how AI-driven memory chip inflation is hitting even the industry's most powerful supply chain negotiator.
iOS 27's iPhone Handoff lets two iPhones share a single phone number, using the same underlying concept as Apple Watch number sharing. But at launch, only two carriers worldwide support it—a stark contrast to the 500+ carriers that support eSIM, revealing the real barrier to making this work.
IonQ's paper details a roughly 20,000-qubit design to crack Bitcoin's signature math. But 26 days is one attempt, success is not guaranteed, and exposed public keys shape the real risk.
Suno built v6 using Warner-licensed tracks and user data, with plans to retire older models. But the training data mix, timing for BMG and Believe catalog integration, and revenue-sharing terms remain undisclosed.
Hypertune, a new PC optimization tool built with official Intel backing and the XTU SDK, promises automatic tuning tailored to individual silicon. While it advertises gains of up to 60%, scrutiny is mounting over how much of that boost depends on the game being played, how much comes from simple in-game setting changes rather than hardware tuning, and whether its subscription pricing is justified.
Reports put CXMT's 8-layer HBM3 yield at about 25%, but the process-level figures and their denominators need checking. Here is what leading makers' experience and testing steps reveal about stable domestic HBM supply.
The unofficial Xenogears Atlas project has shared early progress rebuilding the original game's data in Godot. We look at its focus on conversation timing and how it differs from the existing Noah project.
A comparison of the A20 Pro and A19 Pro explains what Apple's announced gains mean in practice. We look at the memory bandwidth and cooling changes, plus how Snapdragon and Dimensity feed data to their processors, to see where real-world differences may appear.
