๐Ÿง  Apple is expanding its U.S. chip production

๐Ÿ“ฐ Thanks to cooperation with two key partners โ€“ TSMC (the most valuable Asian company with capitalization of $538 billion) and packaging company Amkor, Apple plans to significantly expand chip production in the United States.

๐Ÿค The partners have agreed to work together to improve chip manufacturing, packaging and testing at Amkor's new plant in Arizona. The partnership includes a $2 billion investment that will create more than 2,000 jobs. The joint production facility will utilize TSMC's wafer fabrication capabilities in Phoenix and Amkor's fab.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ This collaboration supports Apple's desire to localize production domestically and reduce dependence on foreign markets. For the company itself, it also means a more reliable and faster supply of chips, which will positively impact its products and customers.

๐Ÿ“ฐ Mark Gurman explains how the new Macbook Pro M4 got into the hands of the blogger before the official Event

๐Ÿ’ป In a long fresh article on Bloomberg, Mark Gurman confirms that a recent Youtube video indeed unboxed the yet-to-be-announced product. He explains how this could have happened:

Appleโ€™s new MacBook Pro indeed shows up in Russia weeks before announcement. Scores of unannounced M4 MacBook Pros โ€” ready for retail sale โ€” got into the wrong hands overseas and appeared on a pair of Russian YouTube channels. I can confirm that these are indeed Appleโ€™s upcoming M4 MacBook Pros. And given that Apple has shut off its sales to Russia, I believe these were stolen elsewhere in Europe before being sent to the country.

How did this happen before the product was even announced? Well, Apple wants to be able to get devices into the hands of consumers as soon as possible after introduction. So it spends weeks filling up warehouses in many parts of the world ahead of time. There are also thousands of unannounced new iMacs and Mac minis out there as well (they just havenโ€™t popped up on YouTube). I expect the new Mac models to begin going on sale around Nov. 1. Apple should be unveiling them in the next few weeks, in line with plans I reported several months ago.


โณ Well, let's wait for the beginning of November and more interesting news from insiders and analysts of the tech giant to come.

๐Ÿค– Apple aims to take one more important niche in the tech market

๐Ÿ”‰ Now Apple is more in the catching-up position in the Smart Home market, but now, the company has plans to become a popular product in the home sphere.

๐Ÿš— A Home Ecosystem team is being set up within the company, with several engineers from Apple's closed automotive project already moving in.

๐Ÿ  The main distinguishing features of such devices are planned to support Matter (system that combine different smart devices into a single network) and Apple Intelligence. There are also plans to relaunch software for such devices, namely a separate homeOS platform that will be built on top of tvOS.

๐Ÿฆพ The first device the company plans to launch based on these technologies will be a kind of HomePod with a square display and camera. Later, the company will release a more expensive version of HomePod with a robotic โ€œarmโ€ and a display that looks like one of the legendary iMacs.

Apple needs a win here. Right now, nobody has truly mastered the smart home market. But at some point, someone will. If the right pieces fall into place, it could โ€” and should โ€” be Apple itself.

๐Ÿ“ฑ The entire iPhone 17 lineup will feature new battery adhesives

๐Ÿช› Apple has already started using an adhesive (glue) that loosens when low current is applied, making it easier to repair, but only in the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus models. The 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max models use a regular adhesive that has been used before.

โŒš It's likely that Apple will use such adhesive in its other devices at a later date, but the Apple Watch Series 10, for example, also uses regular adhesive for now.

๐Ÿ“ฑ It's also not yet known whether the base iPhones will get metal-cased batteries. They dissipate heat better and are generally stronger, but they're only used in the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max so far.

๐Ÿ“ฑ Apple has unveiled a new 7th generation iPad mini

๐Ÿง  A17 Pro chip for Apple Intelligence and faster performance. The 16โ€‘core Neural Engine is up to 2x faster than the previous generation. The 5โ€‘core GPU, allโ€‘day battery life and Apple Pencil Pro support.

๐Ÿ–ฅ Pre-order is available on the official website.

๐Ÿ”œ On sale from October 23 from $499.

๐Ÿ“ฑ Well, unpredictable and unbelievable, but

whatโ€™s new with the iPad mini 7:

๐ŸŽจ New blue and purple colors
โšก๏ธ Faster A17 Pro chip
๐Ÿค– Apple Intelligence support (one day it will be launched, no worries)
๐Ÿ›œ Wi-Fi 6E support (iPad mini 6 โ€“ just 6)
๐Ÿ“ก Bluetooth 5.3 support (iPad mini 6 โ€“ just 5)
๐Ÿ“ท 12MP camera with Smart HDR 4 (iPad mini 6 12MP, but Smart HDR 3)
โœ๏ธ Apple Pencil Pro support
๐Ÿ”Œ Faster USB-C port (with USB 3 speeds)
๐Ÿ—„๏ธ New 128GB base storage (iPad mini 6 only 64 and 256GB)
๐Ÿ“ถ eSIM cellular models

๐Ÿค” So, there are some changes, but the A15 Bionic chip is still more than capable for everyday tasks, and unless a user requires faster data transfers, better โ€ŒApple Pencilโ€Œ control, or Apple Intelligence for productivity, the new features may not justify the cost of upgrading.

๐Ÿท If you are one of these users and you do not currently own an โ€ŒiPad miniโ€Œ, it may be worth picking up a now-discontinued sixth-generation model for a heavily discounted price.

๐Ÿ“ž Tim Cook complained to Trump about EU fines imposed on Apple

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ The former US president said he would not allow the European Union to โ€œtake advantage of American companiesโ€ if he wins the election.

โ€œThree hours ago, he [Cook] called me. He said the European Union has just fined us $15 billion... Then on top of that, they got fined by the European Union another $2 billion. He [Cook] said something that was interesting. He said theyโ€™re using that to run their enterprise, meaning Europe is their enterprise. I said, thatโ€™s a lot... But Tim, I got to get elected first, but Iโ€™m not going to let them take advantage of our companies โ€” that wonโ€™t, you know, be happening.โ€

โ€“ Trump said.

๐Ÿงพ In March, the EU fined Apple around $2 billion after finding that Apple used its dominance to restrict music streaming apps from telling customers about cheaper subscription deals outside the App Store. The EU later won its fight to make Apple pay $14.4 billion in unpaid taxes.

๐Ÿ’ฌ The Verge requested a comment from Apple, but the company did not respond. The election will be held on November 5.

๐Ÿ“ฑ The new iPad mini on the A17 Pro chip and its performance

๐Ÿ“Š The Geekbench benchmark produced the following results:

ใƒปSingle-core between 2.710 and 2.840
ใƒปMulti-core between 6.274 and 6.982

For comparison, the results of the predecessor iPad mini (6th generation) = 2.121/5.367
iPhone 15 Pro, which shared its slightly reduced chip with the new iPad mini = 2.888/7.169

๐Ÿค– Also, the test results confirmed the installed 8GB RAM required for Apple Intelligence (the predecessor had 4GB).

โ˜๏ธ The new iPad mini will be shipped to customers with pre-installed iPadOS 18.0 without Apple Intelligence, but good news is that PadOS 18.1 is rumored to be expected on October 28!

๐Ÿ“ฑ iPhone 16 Pro bug causing random freezing and restarts

๐Ÿ–ฅ Some iPhone 16 Pro users are reporting random freezes and restarts with their devices.

๐Ÿ• The problem seems to pop up randomly. The display will stop responding or will be very slow to respond to touch input, and then the iPhone will do a quick restart. There have also been reports of the โ€ŒiPhoneโ€Œ restarting unexpectedly when in StandBy mode.

โ˜๏ธ For most people, the issue is sporadic, but some users have seen 10 to 20 crashes per day. In some cases, doing a fresh install and not reinstalling from an iCloud Backup seems to have fixed the problem, so it is possible that this is a bug related to โ€ŒiCloudโ€Œ.

๐Ÿ’ฌ Lucky owners of the latest model, have you experienced any issues?

๐Ÿ“† Apple internally believes that itโ€™s at least two years behind in AI development

๐Ÿค– According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, some employees inside Apple believe that their generative artificial intelligence technology is more than 2 years behind other industry players with AI (at least for the moment). For example, even according to internal tests ChatGPT powered by the GPT-4o engine is about 25% more accurate than Siri, and can answer about 30% more questions.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ The company's current strategy is to make sure all Apple devices with displays can run Apple Intelligence on the device itself. But this isn't happening as fast as it could, besides, the service's availability is limited to the English language (but still not available in EU and mainland China), while competitors are already several steps ahead.

๐Ÿคž Though by 2026, the company's plan is to add new features to its generative AI to start competing with them fully.

๐ŸŽค Tim Cook was interviewed by Ben Cohen of the Wall Street Journal

๐Ÿ‘ฅ They talked about Apple Vision Pro, innovation, Apple Intelligence, and more.

๐Ÿ˜ Aside from a routine day, every minute of which can not be imagined without an Apple device, Tim Cook talked about why Apple was late with AI. He explained it in four words:

Not first, but the best.


๐Ÿฅฝ In addition, the interesting part was how the Apple CEO explained the poor sales of Apple Vision Pro:

At $3,500, it's not a mass-market product. Right now, it's an early-adopter product. People who want to have tomorrow's technology today โ€“ that's who it's for. Fortunately, there's enough people who are in that camp that it's exciting.

๐ŸŽƒ Apple's schedule for the next week from Mark Gurman

๐Ÿ“† In his latest posts on ๐•, he said an "M4 Mac launch" is on Apple's schedule for next week, but he did not mention a specific day.

โฐ In the next post, Gurman said that Apple is inviting journalists and content creators to a hands-on experience in Los Angeles next Wednesday, and he believes this means the new Macs would need to be announced before then.

โณ Anyway, it looks like Apple will announce the first Macs with M4 chips in around a week from now at the latest, based on these latest claims. It's still not entirely clear if it will be an online event or if the products will be announced in press releases on the Apple Newsroom website only. There is still time left in October for Apple to invite the media to watch an online event, but it's hardly ever to believe. We'll see!

๐Ÿ”” Apple is likely to announce in the coming days:

โ–ช Entry-level 14-inch MacBook Pro with M4 chip (with additional Thunderbolt port)
โ–ช 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with M4 Pro and M4 Max chip options
โ–ช Mac mini on M4 and M4 Pro with a smaller Apple TV-like design
โ–ช iMac with the M4 chip
โ–ช USB-C versions of the Magic Mouse, Magic Trackpad, and Magic Keyboard accessories

The first ๐Ÿ“ฑ 18.2 beta for developers: what's new about Apple Intelligence

ใƒปImage Playground โ€“ vital image generation.
ใƒปImage Wand โ€“ make a sketch and AI will make it more beautiful.
ใƒปGenmoji โ€“ like Image Playground, but on a smaller emoji-sized scale. People that have iOS 18.1 installed will see Genmoji and can even get information about them, but they can only be created in iOS 18.2. In earlier versions of iOS, they show up as an image.
ใƒปSiri ChatGPT โ€“ Siri can now hand over requests to ChatGPT, a feature is entirely opt-in.
ใƒปVisual Intelligence โ€“ on iPhone 16, Visual Intelligence can be used to identify objects and places around you. Like you can get hours and reviews if the camera is looking at a restaurant, get text read aloud, search for items on Google etc.
ใƒปWriting Tools โ€“ no longer limited to three styles.
ใƒปLanguages โ€“ with iOS 18.2, Apple Intelligence supports English in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, and the UK in addition to U.S. English, so if you're in Canada, you no longer have to set your โ€ŒiPhoneโ€Œ to U.S. English to use Apple Intelligence.

๐Ÿ’ฐ How to get up to a million dollars from Apple

๐Ÿ“ฐ Apple said it would pay between $50,000 and $1 million to hack into its Private Cloud Compute (PCC) servers, which are used to run Apple Intelligence.

Because PCC extends the industry-leading security and privacy of Apple devices into the cloud, the rewards we offer are comparable to those for iOS. We award maximum amounts for vulnerabilities that compromise user data and inference request data outside the PCC trust boundary.


๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ’ป To allow other users to verify PCC, Apple has gone to the unusual step of opening up the source code of some of the PCC components that allow security and privacy checks.

๐Ÿ”ง Apple has also released a toolkit that allows you to test PCC security and simulate an attack right from your Mac for the first time. Virtual Research Environment is available on Macs with an Apple Silicon chip, 16GB of RAM and macOS Sequoia 15.1. It is already available in the latest developer beta.

P.S. If anyone can handle it, let us know in the comments.

๐Ÿ”” New OS will be released to update today after 10 am in California

๐Ÿ”œ Average users can try as early as less than twelve hours:

๐Ÿ“ Writing tools which are available across the iPhone, including in Mail, Notes, Pages and in some third-party apps.

๐Ÿฉน New clean-up tool in Photos that can remove people and things spoiling your shot, and uses multiple machine learning tools to leave the background pristine, like they were never there.

๐ŸŽ™ Record and transcribe audio, but remember about automatic notifications to participants. A summary is also generated after the call ends.

๐Ÿ—บ New design for Siri that looks somehow more central to the iPhone experience and will offer a more intuitive interaction.

โ˜๏ธ Spatial photography and spatial video functionality is available in the new spatial camera mode and now available for iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max as well.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ At first, Apple Intelligence on iPhone will only work with devices with language and Siri set to U.S. English. But Apple has already released a developer beta which will extend this to other versions of English. Anyway, now features will not work on iPhones for the Chinese region (dual SIM), nor in the EU.

๐Ÿ’ป While new OS will be coming, new products are also anticipated this week, maybe starting from today!

๐Ÿ€Will see in the European time evening and have a good week everyone :)

๐Ÿ“ฐ Indonesia has banned the sale of the iPhone 16

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฉ Indonesia blocked Apple Inc. from selling its latest iPhones in Southeast Asiaโ€™s largest economy, saying the company has yet to meet local investment requirements.

The industry ministry said earlier in October that Apple has only invested 1.5 trillion rupiah ($95 million) in Indonesia, below its commitment of 1.7 trillion rupiah. Apple built four developer academies in the country in lieu of establishing a local manufacturing facility, though CEO Tim Cook said in April that the company was looking into the feasibility of doing so.
