Apple is reportedly planning new iPad Pro and MacBook Pro releases early next year

Apple dự kiến sẽ ra mắt nhiều mẫu iPad Pro mới cùng MacBook Pro cấp thấp trong nửa đầu năm sau, tích hợp chip nhanh hơn và có thể ra mắt chip M7 đầu tiên. Điều này diễn ra khi Apple liên tục tăng giá sản phẩm hiện có, khiến nhu cầu về các tùy chọn giá rẻ càng trở nên cấp thiết. Ngoài ra, hãng cũng đang thử nghiệm iPhone gập trong giai đoạn chuyển giao lãnh đạo sau thời Tim Cook.

Lập trình viên nên theo dõi thông tin này vì những chip mới như M7 của Apple có thể mang đến những cải tiến hiệu năng và hiệu suất cho các ứng dụng phát triển trên iOS và macOS, đặc biệt là trong việc tối ưu hóa công cụ lập trình và hệ thống chạy ứng dụng.

The One Step Everyone Skips When Turning Off Find My iPhone (And Why It Gets Trade-Ins Rejected)

Turning off Find My iPhone via the Settings toggle is not enough to fully remove Activation Lock — the device must also be manually removed from iCloud.com's All Devices list. Skipping this second step is why trade-ins and carrier exchanges get rejected even when the toggle appears disabled. Additional edge cases covered include Screen Time restrictions blocking the toggle, remote removal for phones not in hand, and Stolen Device Protection's mandatory one-hour security delay.

The Steam Machine is actually a Mac mini competitor, but not in the way you think

Valve's Steam Machine is drawing comparisons to Apple's Mac mini not as a direct competitor, but because of its vertically integrated approach. While most PC manufacturers simply assemble third-party components and ship Windows, Valve controls the hardware (semi-custom AMD Zen4 CPU + RDNA3 GPU with dedicated GDDR6 VRAM), the OS (SteamOS/Proton), and the overall user experience end-to-end. Unlike Apple's locked ecosystem, the Steam Machine allows users to install Windows, but the default experience is designed to be compelling enough that most won't bother. This positions Valve as one of the only companies besides Apple building a cohesive, platform-level PC experience rather than just a box of assembled parts.

Apple sues OpenAI for stealing hardware designs, alleging employees brought prototypes to “show and tell” interviews

Apple has filed a lawsuit in California federal court against OpenAI, alleging trade secret theft of hardware designs. The suit names OpenAI's chief hardware officer Tang Tan, a 24-year Apple veteran, who allegedly instructed Apple employees to bring digital designs and prototypes to OpenAI job interviews for 'show and tell sessions.' Former Apple engineer Chang Liu is also named, accused of accessing Apple's network storage after leaving and coaching an employee to copy files while evading security. Over 400 former Apple employees now work at OpenAI. Apple is seeking an injunction, return of all trade secrets, and damages. The lawsuit escalates a deteriorating relationship between the two companies, which had previously clashed over the failed ChatGPT-Siri partnership. OpenAI denied any interest in competitors' trade secrets.

Apple sues OpenAI over alleged trade secret theft

Apple has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging trade secret theft and breach of contract. The complaint centers on OpenAI's Chief Hardware Officer Tang Tan, a 24-year Apple veteran, who is accused of using Apple's confidential project code names during recruiting, coaching departing Apple employees on evading security procedures, and soliciting details about unannounced products. Another former Apple employee, Chang Liu, is accused of failing to return an Apple laptop and using it to download and share confidential technical documents. The lawsuit comes as OpenAI is rumored to be developing a smartphone to compete with the iPhone, following its $6.5 billion acquisition of Jony Ive's design startup io. Apple is seeking a court order barring OpenAI from using its trade secrets, requiring return of confidential materials, and preserving evidence. Apple says it sent a letter to OpenAI in February raising concerns but received no response.

Apple sues OpenAI, accuses ex-employees of stealing trade secrets

Apple has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging that former Apple employees stole trade secrets for OpenAI's benefit. Key defendants include Tang Tan, former VP of product design at Apple, and Chang Liu, a former senior electrical engineer. The complaint details how Tan allegedly used Apple's confidential project codenames during job interviews, directed candidates to bring physical Apple hardware components and CAD artifacts to interviews, and distributed internal Apple security departure protocols to new OpenAI hires. Liu allegedly exploited a security bug to download over a thousand pages of confidential engineering files after leaving Apple. Apple also claims OpenAI misled a trusted Apple manufacturing partner into performing Apple's proprietary metal-finishing technique without authorization. The suit seeks injunctive relief and damages. Over 400 former Apple employees now work at OpenAI, which is developing consumer hardware products including a rumored smartphone and smart speaker under Jony Ive's design leadership.
