The headphone comes at a high price of $ 399, and it supports connection with Aux cables in addition to, of course, Bluetooth
Samsung's revenue from the iPhone X exceeds its revenue from the cutoff of its S8
A funny report by WSJ said that Samsung's revenue from the iPhone X is $ 4 billion greater than its revenue from the Samsung S8 in measuring the price of parts "only". The report indicated that Samsung gets $ 110 from Apple for each iPhone X, while it gets $ 202 as the price of the S8 parts ... But by analogy, the iPhone X is expected to achieve 130 million devices in 12 months, while the S8 is expected to sell 50 million in 20 months. Thus, Samsung gets 14 billion revenues from Apple in 12 months, compared to 10 billion revenues from its device in 20 months

Apple fixes the new watch network problem
Two weeks ago, we spoke about a complaint to many Apple users with the new watch, the LTE network version, and they mentioned that it crashes a lot.

The FCC is asking Apple to activate the "FM" radio in the iPhone
Did you know that the iPhone in your hands includes a radio. Yes, the iPhone devices, whether 8, 7, 6, 5 and others include the traditional FM radio chip, but Apple closed it for reasons officially unknown. The FCC, the US Communications Authority, asked Apple to activate the emergency chip, but Apple refused under the pretext that it had an emergency system and its own signals. But the FCC clarified that smart phones depend on the Internet, but in the event of frequent hurricanes, the Internet collapses in some places, so the distress signals are unable to reach and thus the medium becomes FM. Will Apple activate it to protect its users ?! The official answer has not been announced, but the actual one is no. Apple will not do it.
Apple is still interested in LCD screens in the future
A Wall Street Journal press report revealed that the Japan Monitors Company has offered an improved type of LCD screen to Apple that shows exceptional advantages that make it a competitor to the OLED screens that Apple began to move to from the iPhone X. The report said that JD told Apple that the edges could reach 0.5mm in LCD screens versus 1.0mm in OLED, and colors and lighting have been improved due to the low price, which is tempting for Apple because reports have spoken that Apple is paying for the X screen twice the price of traditional screens. This may push the company to continue launching two versions, one LCD and the other LED.

One of the main features of the iPhone X is the TrueDepth camera, which enables the iPhone to know the dimensions and distances. KGI analysts revealed that Apple uses technologies exclusive to it and its development, and that all similar technologies from other companies are very old, so it is not expected that any company will be able to provide the same feature in their devices 2.5 years ago, that is, by 2020. It is reported that the depth camera is one of the things that are rumored to delay the production of the iPhone X.
IPhone 8 and Samsung Note 8 endurance test

I hope that Apple responds and activates the radio. Happy news, thank you
What I like about the Pixel is its camera and the e-SIM feature, meaning if your telecom company supports this feature, you don’t need a SIM card. What I don’t like about it is its large size and the lack of a headphone jack. I like how Google is pushing artificial intelligence forward as if it is responsible for it. I like the new Pixel laptop and I can say that this is the beginning of Google in hardware and it was able to make a place for its Chrome system, and now I find myself very excited to try this system, especially since it supports Android applications and Google services. Now I expect that it is time for Microsoft to give up a little of the Windows system share in favor of Chrome.
Needs to update iazkar
Nice news and intense competition between the big companies in the interest of the user and the maximum benefit from technical research
How wonderful this conclusion is: (These are not all the things on the sidelines, but we have brought you the most important of them, and it is not necessary for the non-specialist to occupy himself with all the straying and coming, there are more important things that you do in your life, so do not let the equipment distract you from your life and your duties, and know Technology is there to make life easier and help you, and if it robs you of your life and preoccupies you, then there is no need for it.)
👍🏻
For the first time I know that the iPhone has an FM radio chip and it is not activated. It always comes to my mind how a smart device, whether Android or iOS, cannot receive all types of radio networks and also the frequencies of visual terrestrial channels. Perhaps these features introduce some modifications to the terms of sale and the countries to which the devices are exported, since these channels have broadcasting rights and the manufacturing companies have to pay for that.
Perhaps based on these vibrations, we can have internet everywhere.
From the iPhone it started switching off and on by itself every period after the iPhone 7 Plus update
🙋🏻
Thank God, I restored my iPhone 5s and returned to iOS 10.3.3, and my device returned quickly as it was before the update before it was shut down by Apple

Samsung steals Apple and Apple steals users, despite the clear superiority of Apple in all respects and its distinction, but it is one of the most greedy and money-loving companies
Did you know that the iPhone X screen is originally an AMOLED from Samsung, but Apple called it Super Retina?
Apple is the one who steals and claims to be the one who made it !!!!
Apple said that this screen was made by Samsung, so I wrote this comment and the article also says that !!!
Apple is still in the lead, and the other companies are not saying imitate but learning from Apple
I think the new Pixel XL phone deserves to be purchased. Raw and pure system, several hardware and support with Google services, something nice, and you, Apple, stay in your ivory velvet horoscope.
Do you know last year's pixel version? Do you know when the Oreo update link? Will you know when support for updates will end? Hahahahahahahahaha look and be shocked
Honestly, yes, it is better than all kinds of iPhones this year, even though I am an old user of iPhone 😅
