According to Kuo, the new iPhone 11 will be using “frosted glass casing” instead of a glass panel that was used in previous models. The casing design would be interesting, considering the design of the Pixel 3’s matte and glass combination, having an iPhone with the same design language would be a refreshing change from the iPhone’s current all-glass back design. Throughout the years, the iPhone has undergone several changes and materials in its design....

This is reflected in a recently updated support document, as spotted by MacRumors. Apple says the iPhone 12 mini can achieve its 12W charge speeds via MagSafe with a USB-C charging adapter that is at 9V/2.03A or higher.

A number of news outlets, including 9to5Mac and MacRumors, have received word that Apple will be holding a Mac-related press briefing this week....

9to5Mac reports that Apple is conducting surveys regarding the iPhones’ Face ID user experience. These are pretty innocuous, but it does somewhat reinforce rumours from 2019 that the next iPhones will come with both Face ID and Touch ID. But alongside those are questions about the USB cable and the SIM eject tool that come in the box. For something that’s used so frequently, Apple not including a USB-C to Lightning cable sounds like a bad idea....

There are three new Magic Keyboard models available. The first features both Touch ID and a numeric keypad, while the second and third models are tenkeyless keyboards – with the former also featuring Touch ID capability. However, it is worth noting that the Touch ID features (mainly the biometric sensor) is only compatible with M1-equipped Apple devices, namely the MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, Mac Mini, and iMac. Next up is the updated Magic Trackpad, which now comes with rounded corners that matches the aforementioned keyboards – thus offering a more uniformed look across the board....

To quickly recap, the latest series of the Apple Watch comes with an always-on Retina display. The display itself is capable of switching its framerate from the usual 60Hz all the way down to 1Hz. This is to conserve battery life, allowing its always-on display to still be running for up to 18 hours. When it becomes available, the Apple Watch Series 5 will be priced starting from RM1749. Unfortunately, we only have the starting price, and this may vary depending on your choice of case for the Watch....

One possible reason behind this limitation could be due to A320 chipset’s inability to handle the power draw of the upcoming Ryzen 3000 series CPUs. It’s ironic, especially when you recall that the first generation Ryzen CPUs were designed with both thermal and power efficiency being integral factors in their design. The BIOS updates for all ASRock AM4 motherboards will be made available on their respective pages upon the launch of AMD’s Ryzen 3000 series CPUs during Computex 2019....

Getting into its specifications, the X670E Extreme is, once again, an AM5 motherboard that a brand new LGA 1718 socket, to accommodate the new Ryzen 7000 series CPUs.

For that matter, the entirety of the X670E Extreme is also fitted with heatsink, designed to passively wick away the heat from its VRMs, MicroFine alloy chokes, and those premium 10K black metallic capacitors, whenever the motherboard is performing arduous tasks....

Specs-wise, the card is powered by NVIDIA’s 8nm Ampere GPU architecture and has the same 10GB GDDR6X graphics memory. Additionally, the card’s accompanying memory also runs at a speed of 19Gbps, while the memory bus is rated at 320-bit. The difference between the TUF Gaming version and NVIDIA’s Founders Edition (FE) of the RTX 3080, though, are plenty, to say the least. Firstly, the card still uses dual 8-pin PCIe connectors to power it, instead of the new 12-pin PCIe port that the FE uses....

To start, both the ZenBook 13 and 14 still retain the same four-sided NanoEdge display, but compared to the last generation, it’s actually sunk in and the bezels are more pronounced. Moving on, there’s also the new NumberPad 2.0 that is also more power efficient than its predecessor, thus prolonging the overall battery life and performance of the ZenBook 13 and 14. Speaking of battery life, both the ZenBook 13 and 14 are powered by a 67WHr battery that ASUS says will give users up to 22 hours of battery on a single charge....

Despite having different names, the only notable differences between the two models are their storage capacity and internal cooling system. Besides that, everything else about the ROG Phone 6D and 6D Ultimate are pretty much identical. That being said, the duo also share the same design as their respective Snapdragon-equipped siblings. To be more specific, both of the newer models come with a 6.78-inch OLED panel with 165 Hz refresh rate and HDR10+ support, as well as an RGB-enabled ROG logo on the rear panel for the standard model and a customisable ROG Vision colour display for the Ultimate variant....

But having an all-powerful processor and graphics unit does not a wholesome, immersive gaming tablet experience make. And to that end, we’re here to find out if this machine is bee’s knees or just a passing mention. Specification Now, it should be made clear that the Z13 that I have is just one of three SKUs ASUS is offering to the masses. For that matter, and like the X13, one of the SKUs has the option of cramming a 4K panel into that already tight 13....

In this review, we’ll be taking a look at ASUS’ custom-cooled variation of the GPU, the ROG Strix Radeon RX 5600 XT, and see if the card actually lives up to AMD’s claims. Design While I would like to tell you that there is something new and exciting about ASUS’ variation of the RX 5600 XT, this isn’t one of those times. Like all ROG Strix cards, the card rocks ASUS’ triple-fan 0dB cooling solution, all based on its Axial-tech design....
