💻 Apple's M4 Macbook Pro lineup: what to expect
Apple built the M3 chip on a new 3-nanometer process, and we are not expecting a node change for the M4. It will be the same chip, but more efficient and faster.
The new model will get the standard M4 chip. For customers who want a more "pro" machine, the higher-end 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models are set to be refreshed with M4 Pro and M4 Max chips, which are more powerful versions of the faster M4 chip.
There are no rumors of a design change for the MacBook Pro at this time :)
This fall could see the M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max variants come out all at once like the M3 chip lineup, or Apple could space them out across several months.
The M3 MacBook Pro models came out in October 2023, so a refresh around October 2024 would come at the one-year mark.

A photo of a protective glass piece that would be located at the top of a HomePod that has the same design as the current standard size HomePod has appeared online.
The image shows a circular, glossy glass piece that would be located at the top of a HomePod that has the same design as the current standard size HomePod. The component would replace the current touch/waveform interface.
The device won't be released until 2025 because the product is still pretty raw, but development is underway.

🏦 Europe's main financial entity may call Apple's proposed iPhone NFC changes off
The European Central Bank is opposed to Apple's proposed changes to the iPhone's near-field communication at the core of Apple Pay, and has complained about it to the European Commission.
In January 2024, Apple announced a series of changes to iOS, that enabled third-party payment processors to utilize on-device NFC technology through the use of new NFC-related APIs (Application Programming Interface) added to the operating system.
It was said earlier that the European Commission was set to approve Apple's proposed changes as early as next month. However, this latest letter from the European Central Bank may perhaps affect the process.

🎛️ Apple has patented a new horizontal audio speaker system
The patent description shows six illustrations, hinting that the speaker will be able to connect to other devices via cables – the back of the soundbar shows a number of ports.
The existing HomePod and HomePod mini models can't be connected to anything but a power cord.
However, the existence of an issued patent does not indicate that the product will be released at all.

🔋Possible alternative to MagSafe has been launched
Satechi yesterday announced the availability of its two new Qi2 charging stands, the 3-in-1 Foldable Qi2 Wireless Charging Stand and the 2-in-1 Foldable Qi2 Wireless Charging Stand. Qi2 is the latest version of the Qi standard, and it is comparable to MagSafe.
Qi2 uses magnets to ensure that smartphones are aligned properly with charging coils, and it is able to charge compatible iPhones at up to 15W. The faster Qi2 charging speeds are available on the iPhone 12, iPhone 13, iPhone 14, and all iPhone 15 models. Future iPhones, such as the upcoming iPhone 16 lineup, will also work with Qi2.
Qi2 is basically the same as MagSafe, but it is not being controlled by Apple, so Qi2 accessories can be a bit cheaper than MagSafe technology that manufacturers have to license from Apple.

☁️Some users are randomly getting locked out of their Apple ID accounts
There are widespread reports of Apple users being locked out of their Apple ID overnight for no apparent reason, requiring a password reset before they can log in again.
The log-outs weren't — or aren't, it's not clear yet — happening on one particular class of device. And, if you were impacted, it's across nearly all of your devices including HomePods, Apple TV hardware, iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
It doesn't appear to be an organized hack or attack nor a mass-attempt at credential stuffing. Users aren't reporting two-factor authentication triggers or similar warnings.
