iPad Air 6 coming, but only after iPhone 15 launch during the Apple event 2023

The U.S. sanctions did not impede the progress of Chinese semiconductor manufacturer SMIC in mass producing the Kirin 9000S, which is now found in Huawei’s flagship, the Mate 60 Pro, though it is no secret that its 7nm process is several generations behind the most advanced node. However, a report states that with the latest SoC launch, China is at most four years behind, and the export controls executed by the United States intended to keep the region up to 10 years behind in the chip race.

Huawei’s self-sufficiency allowed it to circumvent the U.S. sanctions and launch the Mate 60 Pro with the Kirin 9000S, which is gaining immense traction in China. With reported shipments said to reach 20 million units this year, the flagship is apparently selling like hotcakes, all the while benefitting Apple’s supply chain.

Honkai: Star Rail will officially launch on PS5 this coming 11th October, but as the title has already been available for several months on PC and smartphone, it’ll be disembarking alongside v1.4. As is the cadence for all HoYoverse titles, the titanic Chinese developer will host a livestream later this week, on 29th September, to detail everything you can expect from the release’s next major refresh.

Apple Inc.'s basic iPhone 15 model is taking almost twice as long for deliveries this year than its predecessor, signaling high demand for the company's latest handsets. Buyers in the US need to wait for 10 days to receive the basic model, up from six days for the previous generation device launched last year, according to data from Counterpoint Research. At the other end of the spectrum, Apple's top-tier iPhone 15 Pro Max increased pre-order waiting times to a record, the researchers found. Significant upgrades to both models drove renewed demand, though some of it came at the cost of Apple's other options, the 15 Plus and 15 Pro, which both saw diminished wait times.

ESports' inclusion as a medal event at the Hangzhou Asian Games was hailed as a landmark, but out of nearly 500 gamers for what is supposed to be a mixed-sex competition, just eight are women.

The A17 Pro was taken through its paces in a recent benchmark, and only obtained a mere single-digit gain against the A16 Bionic in Geekbench 6’s multi-core run. The reason for this low score is quite simple; according to the latest findings, the iPhone 15 Pro Max featuring this chipset is unable to keep low temperatures for longer periods, resulting in thermal throttling, and requires a beefy cooling solution to get a high single-threaded and multi-threaded result.
