Apple iPhone 17 Air Gets Leaked and WOW THAT's THIN!......
09/12/2024
If you need an iPhone today, the iPhone 16 and 16 Pro are very compelling options. But if you’re on the fence, or the new models don’t excite you much, maybe wait for next year. The iPhone 17 Air should provide the radical change you’ve been looking for in a new phone. Three reasons to wait for the iPhone 17 Air
Apple A18 Pro vs Snapdragon 8 Gen 4: Can Qualcomm Beat Apple?
09/12/2024
On the GPU side, it’s likely Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 may outperform the A18 Pro GPU as Apple has not redesigned the GPU this year, except for increasing the clock speed. Of course, we will run various benchmarks to reach a definitive conclusion once we get our hands on the iPhone 16 Pro/ Pro Max and Xiaomi 15 Pro, likely the first phone powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4. Apple’s new A18 Pro chipset powers the latest iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max. It promises powerful CPU performance and brings moderate upgrades in the GPU and NPU departments. That said, how does the A18 Pro stack up against the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset? To find the difference in performance and efficiency, we have compared the A18 Pro and Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 in a detailed manner.
Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 Rumored To Be 20 Percent More Expensive Than The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, Could Make Flagships Even More Expensive
09/12/2024
On the other hand, entities like Xiaomi are probably treated differently. In short, it is best to treat the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 pricing rumors with a pinch of salt and wait until we have more concrete data. However, we should not ignore the fact that Qualcomm switching to TSMC’s second-generation 3nm process and the transition to its custom Oryon CPU cores will have a drastic impact on cost. The unit price of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 is rumored to be $240, which is equivalent to an entry-level smartphone with decent specifications

We have yet to hear any official confirmation, but from what we have heard, the OnePlus 13 might be coming soon. OnePlus 13 is reportedly to launch sooner than expected, as we could see the debut happening as early as October.
Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 GPU Efficiency Test Shows Phenomenal Results; Rumor Claims It Can Reach Dimensity 9300’s Peak Performance At Half The Power
09/12/2024
While operating at just 8W, information posted by @negativeonehero reveals that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 delivers a multi-core score of 10,000+ If you were to compare scores, this is around the same performance level as the Apple’s A18 Pro found in the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max scoring slightly lower. The post’s caption also reads that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 GPU can run at the Dimensity 9300’s peak performance while only consuming half the power. Qualcomm will leverage TSMC’s second-generation 3nm process for the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, which only means that we should bear witness to the chipset’s incredible power-efficiency attributes. Then again, it is also possible that the San Diego has optimized the SoC to the extent that the Adreno 850 GPU delivers incredible ‘performance per watt’ compared to MediaTek’s Dimensity 9300. According to new internal testing data, the graphics side of the silicon could exhibit jaw-dropping power consumption and the same…
