    Apple Looking To Eliminate Physical Home Button From Its Devices

    After Apple agreed to start paying artists by lifting the three month trial period, the Cupertino tech giant will now shift its attention to its mobile products, with the intention to remove the home button from them completely. The company will instead replace them with a single chip solution (which is reported to be made by the company itself) for integrating both the touchscreen and display drivers for mobile devices.

    Apple Is Currently Developing A Single Chip Solution That Will Also Integrate Fingerprint Sensors

    According to a report published by DigiTimes, a more common name being referred to Apple’s single chip solution TDDI, or touch and display driver integration. The report states that these TDDI chips will also be including integrated fingerprint sensors which will potentially allow Apple to remove the home button from future devices and from the overall equation as well.
    Despite the fact that future iPhone designs are expected to be much slimmer compared to its predecessors, the integrated design would effortlessly be able to fit in them. With the absence of a home button, Apple might be looking to reducing the thickness of the mobile devices altogether, but there will be limitations, such as incorporating the Force Touch tech, which will increase the device’s thickness.





    Synaptics was the very first firm to introduce TDDI solutions and were showcased this year. The company was able to produce its new chips by taking advantage of its acquisition of chipmaker Renesas SP Drivers. With the acquisition, both Synaptics and Renasas were able to combine their expertise in order to focus on touch technology chipset and display tech respectively.
    Apple had also triangulated its sights on Renesas SP Drivers during last year, but due to a failed deal, the acquisition could not take place. Regardless, the company will still be able to take advantage of the tech, by becoming a Synaptics customer, but it appears that being crowed the world’s most valuable company has forced the firm’s inflated ego to pursue it to make its own solutions.
    It is also possible that with this new tech, future iPhones will have increased display sizes, along with edge-to-edge screens. Looks like we will get to know more about this when Apple unveils its latest smartphone duo, iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus.

    Apple wants to go back to hiding its iPhone antennas

    Ever since the iPhone 4 was first introduced, Apple has had its antenna shown off on the outside of its mobile devices. On the iPhone 4, 5 and 5s it can be seen at the metal ring around the phone while on the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus you can see it was the plastic lines going over the top of the top of the phone, drawing a line on the back of the device underneath the camera.
    It turns out that Apple isn’t a huge fan of this design and may be working on a way to go back to hiding the iPhone antenna. According to the United States Trademark and Patent office, Apple has filed for a new patent, describing a newly invented material that would allow Apple to hide those antenna lines once and for all.

    The patent specifically describes: “Composite structures that have an appearance of an anodized bulk metal but that is non-capacitive and/or radio frequency (RF) transparent are disclosed”.
    The above quote is essentially a fancy way of saying that Apple wants to build a completely metal iPhone again, rather than having those plastic lines on the back. Obviously, just because Apple filed a patent does not mean that they will ever use the technology. However, it does sound likely so we may end up seeing a slightly adjusted design on the iPhone 7 come next year.

    Dual Camera Lens Could Be A Reality On The iPhone Very Soon Indeed

    In an industry that is constantly pushing for new technology on new devices, Apple’s approach to major new features has been strictly conservative. The last iPhone to come with a major upgrade was the iPhone 5S, which introduced the fingerprint sensor on an Apple device for the first time. And even though the iPhone 6 Duo saw a complete design overhaul, coupled with a larger variant being introduced in the form of the iPhone 6 Plus, the flagship upgrade did not see any new features. Could things change with the iPhone 6S Duo? We’ve started to hear some interesting reports out of Taiwan which claim that Apple’s been working on dual camera lens technology for more than three years.

    Apple’s Been Working On Dual Camera Technology For Quite A While Claims Altek CEO

    Dual camera lenses are not a novelty in the Android world. Several firms, with the likes of HTC and Huawei included have developed such solutions for their devices and there’s no reason to believe that we won’t be seeing other manufacturers from doing so in the future either. But in Apple’s ecosystem, the Cupertino tech giant generally takes its time with new features, citing the need to perfect them before introduction on mass scale.





    And according to Altek CEO, Xiaru Wen, the company’s been working on dual camera technology for more than three years now. In fact, should Apple’s supply chain adjust itself to production needs generated by such a change, the company would be ready to introduce the feature in one of its devices, most likely the iPhone. Apple’s got its bases covered on the software end as well, with its recent acquisition of LinX imaging this April.
    By the looks of things, Apple’s supply chain partners have also understood the need for this change, as Largan (Its camera lens supplier) also recently announced plans to double lens production. If this works out, then we should expect Apple’s component yield problem to be over and who knows. Perhaps the iPhone 7 could come with a dual camera lens indeed. Sounds interesting? Stay tuned and let us know what you think in the comments section.

    Will Apple finally use liquidmetal in the next iPhone?




    Back in 2010, Apple signed an exclusive agreement with California-based company Liquidmetal Technologies to use the firm's advanced "amorphous" metal alloys. According to Liquidmetal's description of its technology, this material exhibits an "amorphous" molecular structure differing from the crystalline structures of traditional metals, making it lightweight, strong and malleable. It was even said to have unique acoustical properties, potentially making liquidmetal an ideal material for the construction of phone chassis.
    Yet in the five years since Apple acquired the rights to liquidmetal, the only consumer product to use it was a SIM ejector tool for the iPhone 3G. But it's now been suggested that we may see this alloy used as the primary material in the next iPhone. The basis of these rumors originates from the fact that Apple has just renewed its exclusivity rights with liquidmetal technologies, possibly indicating the company has some new plans for their alloy.
    There's always the chance that Apple may be preparing to use liquidmetal for an upcoming device other than the new iPhone, perhaps on a new generation of Apple Watch. But after the bendgate "controversy" surrounding the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus last year, the company may be looking to alleviate potential concerns with a more durable chassis, and liquidmetal could be the answer.
    While the general consensus is that the next iPhone will be released around September this year, it's unclear if Apple will stick with tradition and go with the '6S' name or call its next model the iPhone 7 to indicate bigger changes. Some rumored new features include a force touch display and near DSLR quality camera, as well as improvements to the battery life, processor and RAM.

    Samsung reportedly making 70% of the A9 chips for the next-gen iPhone

    We are only a few months from Apple unveiling the new iPhone 6S, but it looks like its main competitor will be making most of the A9 processors that will be powering the next-gen iPhone.


    According to a report on Chiphell, 70% of the new A9 processors will be made by Samsung while the remaining 30% will be produced by TSMC. Samsung will also be making a large portion of the 2GB of LPDDR4 RAM for the new iPhone, while Hynix will be making the remaining chips for Apple. Comparing this to the current iPhone 6 and 6 Plus where Samsung and Hynix split the DRAM production 50/50.

    The new iPhone will also feature a better camera, which is expected to be a large improvement on the 8-megapixel iSight camera on the current iPhone. We should see Apple unveil the new iPhone in the coming months.

    Latest iPhone 7 Concept Video Shows Ultrathin Bezels

    Enough with all the rumors surrounding iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus. Let us move on to something that is marginally more exciting; like iPhone 7 for instance. Even though there is not an iota of information available to us on the aesthetics or hardware configuration of iPhone 7, Concept Phones have made a great deal of effort in drawing up a concept video showing us what our next dream iPhone should look like.

    iPhone 7 Concept Video Shows Ultrathin Bezels, Along With A 16 MP Rear Camera Sensor

    Since it was reported that iPhone 6s Plus is expected to feature a 1440p resolution, we expect that iPhone 7 will sport an ever larger amount of pixels, possibly going far enough to render the prodigious 4K display, which is expected to be present on Galaxy Note 5 this year. Similar to the upcoming iPhone 6s, iPhone 7 is also expected to feature the Force Touch screen tech, as confirmed by Bloomberg, which will allow the panel to recognize different levels of pressure applied by your fingertips.
    Additionally, iPhone 7 will most likely be getting a rear and front camera sensor upgrade. With the iPhone 6s duo expected to feature a 12 MP rear sensor, iPhone 7 has been illustrated in the video to sport a 16 MP rear shooter, which will be complemented by an 8 MP one. The rear shooter has also been shown to be able to capture 4K videos at a steady framerate.







    Concept designer SCAVidsHD has designed the upcoming phone to sport a screen size of 5.5 inches, with a very thin amount of bezels. The screen size will most likely mean that it will feature the model name iPhone 7 Plus; if Apple will be entertaining to stamp on such a name in the near future. Naturally, as updated things go, the handset will be running iOS 10, which should pave the way for more performance improvements and tweaks, along with a boatload of new features designed to simplify the mobile computing experience for iOS device owners.
    Unfortunately, since it is just a concept, we cannot expect Apple to follow every single detail and make it as the designer has pegged it out to be. However, the tech giant could take a large number of notes on what its next iPhone looks like, because this one is a complete beauty.
    What do you guys think? It’s a masterpiece right?

    From Traditional Reading to Reading on Nook for iPhone: 7 Reasons You’ll Never Look Back


    There are two kinds of people in this world: those who have discovered the wonders of Nook eReading and those who have not. Those who have been proud members of the first camp for some time, report that ever since the first day they installed the Nook app on their iPhone and began reading, they have never looked back. Beforemaking the switch, many are doubtful of whether they could genuinely enjoy reading on an iPhone or other Apple mobile device because of the relatively small screen and the glass-covered, digitized LCD. Thankfully, this concern is beyond irrelevant. Below, you’ll find several of the largest reasons why you’re sure to feel the same way as thousands of readers worldwide when you make the switch from traditional books to Nook for iPhone.
    Digital Bookmarking
    It might sound silly, but being able to “close” the book without having to worry about bookmarking it and then jump right back into it whenever you want is actually many readers’ favorite feature of eReading. It’s can be amazingly liberating and saves so much time. Besides, traditional bookmarking is a pain; should you dog-ear the page, causing damage to the book, or should you carry around a separate bookmark? Six words: ain’t nobody got time for that!
    Searchable Text
    Apps such as the Nook reading app for the iPhone lets you search through an entire text for a single word or phrase with ease is another huge perk of eReading. This is often used by students to search the textbooks they read on an iPhone for quotes or statistics they need to cite for class. However, many graduated professionals still use it frequently when pleasure reading to find particularly relevant or insightful passages that they remember vaguely but want to revisit in detail. In any case, it takes only a few seconds to type the phase into the search bar in the settings menu and watch as Nook instantly returns all instances of the words.
    Cheap or Free Books
    As if added convenience in almost every aspect of the book owner’s experience wasn’t enough, how about huge monetary savings. The hugely discounted and oftentimes even free books available through the Nook store and other channels will make your wallet proud. Even if you were to buy a device solely for eReading, the initial cost would quickly be paid for in savings on purchasing books in their electronic forms as opposed to their physical copies.
    Lighter Than a Feather
    Most books only weigh about a pound, so it might seem ridiculous to complain about the weight they add. When you’re not carrying a backpack or purse, though, carrying an extra object that cannot even fit in a pocket is kind of a big deal. Luckily, a phone is one of those pocket-sized items – you can read all your books on the device that you’re carrying around anyway! And don’t even get me started on how nice it is not to have to carry around heavy academic textbooks…
    Never Stop “Reading”
    There are many routines in your day – doing household chores, maybe, or walking the dog, or working out at the gym – where you cannot continue reading, even if you’d like to. This problem is solved with Nook’s advanced text-to-speech software, which will read your book to you in a clear and easy-to-understand voice. It’s not like downloading the audiobook, because the text-to-voice starts where you finished reading and lets you know where in the text it stops.
    Built-In Dictionary
    There is nothing more frustrating than running across a word you don’t know in a book and having to skip past it. Nook makes it easy to identify such words, however, by including a built-in dictionary. Just tap the word in question to see what it means. This will expand your vocabulary, add to your understanding of the story, and provide a sense of satisfaction when you can “conquer” the new word.
    Apps Galore
    Last but certainly not least, Nook’s iPhone app comes with a multitude of apps that make excellent use of the power running the iOS and the iPhone’s versatility. You can play music while you’re reading, for example, or follow embedded links in the text to web pages where you will gain a deeper understanding of concepts being discussed. All the extra apps available in the Nook store make the reading experience really exciting.
    Millions of readers worldwide have already become enamored by the convenience and versatility; the whole world has begun to embrace eReading via phone. The eReading revolution has begun, so get in on it soon! Put down the book and pick up a library with this clean, lightweight iPhone app.

    Here’s How Apple Will Change The Way You Type And Store Your Earphones

    After it was revealed that Apple was intending on releasing 64 GB iPods, the Cupertino smartphone giant giant’s next ambitious plan is to revolutionize the way iPhone users type and tuck their earphones away for storage purposes. In order to make both of these things possible, the company has filed not one, but two patents, which are as follows:


    We have compiled details of both of these patents below so let us see how exactly it will change the way we interact with both our iPhones and earphones.

    Apple Has Something That It Likes To Call Continuous Handwriting UI And Earphones With Left/Right Magnetic Asymmetry As Part Of Its Patent Filings

    According to Tbreak Media, Apple has filed a Continuous Handwriting UI patent, which will allow the user to continue writing on their mobile devices without facing a breakage in their writing momentum whatsoever. While some might some say that it is similar to the workings on the swipe keyboard present on Android, it is going to be much more refined. The system for writing with continuous flow will be broken down in to two segments:






    • One part of the system will automatically recognize and clear handwriting dynamically
    • The second part will partially remove previously entered text




    Using this method, users will effortlessly be able to write on the left or right hand side of the screen, which should allow them to write without breaking their flow. This kind of writing can be fulfilled by both a user’s finger or by using a stylus.
    Coming to the earphones with left/right magnetic asymmetry, this particular patent filed by Apple will feature a magnet that will be placed in both earbuds. In an effort to prevent earphones become tangled all the time while storing away, Apple intends on making the storage process much easier. When both earbuds are brought close to one another, the reverse polarity of the magnets will allow both of them to stick together, which will become a walk in the park for the user intending on storing them away for later use.




    Apple has currently not stated that if the new typing UI or earphones will be present in the company’s upcoming iPhone 6s, but it will definitely provide a killer mobile experience to future iOS users. As for earphones getting tangled up all the time, well let’s just that its days are numbered.

    Apple In Talks To Incorporate e-SIM In Its iPhones

    After announcing its power induced iPod Touch, Cupertino smartphone giant Apple is currently in talks with mobile standards organization GSMA to introduce electronic SIM cards, or e-SIM for short. Apart from Apple, the company’s biggest rival in the smartphone industry Samsung is also in talks with the same organization. GSMA will most likely be announcing the creation of a standardized embedded SIM card for consumer devices, and if the talks go through to the end, Apple and Samsung will be rolling out their first ever devices to sport an e-SIM.

    E-SIM In Future iPhones Will Prevent Customers From Being Locked In A Dedicated Carrier Device

    The Financial Times reported that the introduction of an e-SIM will would allow consumers to prevent being locked in a dedicated mobile carrier. In this way, they will be able to choose the network of their choice and choose instantly if they are dissatisfied with the pricing or the service that they have paid for. If these talks go through, the carrier networks that are expected to be on board with the new e-SIM standard with be as follows:

    1. AT&T
    2. Deutsche Telekom
    3. Etisalat
    4. Hutchison Whampoa
    5. Orange
    6. Telefónica
    7. Vodafone

    According to GSMA’s CEO, Anne Bouverot, states that all involved parties will be:
    “Heading towards an agreement.”
    However, before you get excited about changing your carrier network instantaneously, you should be warned that due to the technical specifications of the e-SIM, it might take at least 12 months before it can be found in mobile devices. The source states that GSMA said the following:





    “With the majority of operators on board, the plan is to finalise the technical architecture that will be used in the development of an end-to-end remote SIM solution for consumer devices, with delivery anticipated by 2016. We have got everyone back on one point, with Apple and Samsung agreeing to be part of that specification. We have been working with them and others to create an industry solution for machines and will agree a solution for consumer electronics.”
    GSMA has currently not given the e-SIM deal taking place between Apple and Samsung the green light, but the firm is “continuing to work with Apple to secure their support for the initiative and is still in progress.”
    In 2014, Apple decided to take things down a different road by opening up carrier access on some of its products by introducing an Apple SIM card for cellular versions of both of the company’s iPad Air 2 and iPad Mini 3. This flexible option allowed consumers living in the United States to effortlessly switch between carriers as they saw fit.
    Even though the e-SIM standard has been under consideration for several years, several carriers have protested against it, primarily because they will not be able to milk money off consumers if they continue to switch between carriers. However, it looks like in the future, these companies will have no choice but to comply with revised regulations set by GSMA.
    Looks like we are going to have to wait for 2016 to start for e-SIM to make its way in to mobile devices.

    Sapphire Reincarnated On iPhone? Apple Receives New iPhone Patent

    Just as Force Touch is one of the most hyped up features when it comes to the iPhone 6S Duo, last year’s iPhone 6 launch came with its fair share of leaks and speculations. Out of these, one of the most talked about was Sapphire display panels for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, with Sapphire being hyped as a miracle display that would be more stronger than the current Gorilla glass panels found on the iPhones. But Apple’s supplier, GT technology didn’t fare that well, and alongside its downfall, came the seeming end of the sapphire dream for the iPhone.

    Apple Receives Patent For Sapphire Cutting And Manufacture

    Even though Apple’s plans for Sapphire on the iPhone might have been put on hold owing to GT Tech’s poor financial management, that doesn’t mean the idea is dead. In fact, the USPTO has just awarded the Cupertino manufacturer a new patent involving Sapphire displays. The patent makes it Apple’s right to use multiple gas mediums for Sapphire cutting, and can be viewed in detail over here.




    If you’re not one for technical details, then in short, Apple’s patent allows the manufacturer to use new and improved methods to develop Sapphire display panels for the iPhone. As can be seen in the image above, the Sapphire is first irradiated and then sliced into thin sheets using gas cutting mediums. This allows Apple to model the material exactly around its needs and specifications.
    If you’ve taken a look at the document shared above, then you’d have seen that aside from camera lens and Touch ID sensor covers, which already use Sapphire, it also specifically described smartphone displays as one of the possible applications of this sapphire modelling. So the future of Sapphire on the iPhone seems far from dead right now, and Apple should be hard at work towards finding new suppliers as well.

    Your Next iPhone Might Not Feature a Qualcomm LTE Modem

    The latest news coming from the rumor hut reveals that Apple’s upcoming iPhone might not be incorporated with Qualcomm’s LTE modems. According to the latest research report coming in from Northland Capital Markets, Gus Richard has stated that the firm believes that Intel might have won part of the modem business in Apple’s next generation iPhones due that are scheduled to be launched during the month of September. As if Qualcomm was not plagued with enough troubles already.

    Intel Rumored To Have Secured A $1 billion USD Deal With Apple, Kicking Qualcomm Out Of The Equation – New LTE Modem In iPhone Inbound?

    The latest report from EETimes states the following:
    “We now believe that Intel will capture roughly 50% of Apple’s modem business in the upcoming iPhones due to launch September 9th. This is a marquee win for Intel and would go a long way to reducing [its] mobile business losses.”
    Intel might not be well known in the mobile market, but if the rumor holds true, then the largest desktop, laptop and server processor maker will finally be able to take a breather on account of penetrating this particular market. However, before we get excited, there are some who are not even remotely convinced that the deal with be taking place.




    Kevin Krewell, the principal analyst stationed at Tirias Research, stated that:
    “Qualcomm has the best modem technology in the market and the iPhone 6s is a premium phone. I can’t see Apple settling for second best technology.” The only role I can see for Intel’s modem would be a second tier phone like an iPhone 5c replacement, which could be reasonable volume, but at a much lower average selling price.”
    The iPhone 5c replacement would undoubtedly be iPhone 6c, which is said to feature the same FinFET chips as iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus, so it does not seem fitting that Apple will change the hardware concerning the cellular modem for its lesser performing iPhone. Just in case you were wondering which Intel LTE modem was going to be present inside the upcoming iPhones, it has been named XMM 7360.
    Previously, it was reported that Apple’s upcoming iPhone duo would be sporting a Qualcomm’s 20 nm Cat 6 modem, but all that could change in the blink of an eye, which will eventually spell disaster for the largest mobile chipset maker in the world.

    New iPhone 7 Concept Is Absolutely Overkill In The Specs Department (Video)

    We come across concept renders for various devices on a daily basis. With the iPhone 6s right on our faces and due for announcement next month, it’s clear that Apple’s next smartphone is going to be an evolutionary upgrade over the iPhone 6, only enhancing in the internal specs department while keeping the aesthetics of the device same. All that aside, one concept artist had the foresight to visualize what the iPhone 7 would look like and has released a video showcasing the device.

    At this point, nothing is known about the iPhone 7. The only thing we do know is that it would break away from the design of the iPhone 6 and bring something absolutely new to the table. In short – the device is going to be a revolutionary upgrade, rather than an evolutionary one which the iPhone 6s is going to be, as mentioned above already. While the iPhone 7 is set for announcement next year, a new concept has just surfaced, courtesy of AGXHQ, and envisions what the next big revolutionary iPhone could be like, while at the same time, goes a little overboard in the specs department. Nonetheless, on the design front, it looks absolutely stunning and brings back the aesthetics of the iPhone 4s and the iPhone 5s, adding a seamless profile from top to bottom.
    Check out the video below and see for yourself what AG has in store for us:




    New iPhone 7 Concept Doesn’t Shy Away When It Comes To Killer Specs

    As you can see, the concept features a 4.9-inch edge-to-edge 4K Retina display which is also Force Touch ready. Among other things, the device features an enhanced Touch ID sensor that also monitors heart rate and is also easy on the battery. In the camera department, the iPhone 7 features a 16-megapixel iSight module with an 8-element lens which can shoot video in 4K and record slo-mo clips at 1000fps. If you think that’s way too much, then you’ll be pleased to learn that the device will feature a 5-megapixel front facing camera as well. The designer also had the foresight to imagine the device shipping with 2GB of RAM instead of 1 found in the current-gen iPhone model. There’s a lot more in the specs department, and we encourage our readers to check out the video above for more details.
    It would be interesting to see what route Apple will take when it comes to revealing the iPhone 7. After all, the iPhone 6 seems like the limit what a smartphone can be capable of doing, but we’re dealing with Apple here, and we’re sure it will throw in a few surprises of its own.

    Supply Chain Claims Apple iPhone 7 To Move Away From Metal Completely

    When it comes to Apple products, the talk of town these days are the upcoming iPhone 6s variants from Cupertino. Having seen countless leaks so far, we have a fair idea of what to expect this September from Apple and the roster’s filled with features such as Force Touch, a camera resolution/feature upgrade and an all new SoC. But while the iPhone 6s duo might be coming in just more than a week, looks like Apple’s already started to prepare for the iPhone 7.

    Apple To Eliminate Metal From The Equation On The iPhone 7 Claim Sources

    Even though the smartphone world has just recently started to capitalize on metal as the choice of material for top tier devices, looks like Apple’s already got plans to take things to a different level. Known for the mantra of ‘Think Different’ coined by its co-founder Steve Jobs, Apple’s now looking to utilize other materials into its flagship smartphones according to some Chinese supply chain sources.
    While Apple’s faced a couple of problems in the materials segment, with last year’s Bendgate fiasco of the iPhone 6 Plus still remotely fresh in everyone’s minds, according to rumors so far, this year just might be different. Apple’s reportedly going to launch the latest iPhone 6s with 7000 series Aluminum, that manages to bear nearly 3 times the load of the iPhone 6’s aluminum.




    As far as materials go for the next generation of the iPhone, supply chain sources have failed to elaborate further on the matter. Apple’s already experimented with glass, plastic and metal on its smartphone lineup, so we’re really left to wonder on what will the iPhone be coming with after the 6s launch this September?
    The company’s already signed several interesting patents so far that cover the likes of ceramic and liquidmetal. Or has Apple finally managed to make glass strong enough to withstand drops and other stress factors? Only time can tell, and given that it’s more than a year since we get to lay our eyes on the iPhone’s generational upgrade, there’s plenty of time for more information and leaks to surface on the matter.
    For now, stay tuned for the iPhone 6s launch due to take place this September and let us know what you think in the comments section below.

    The iPhone 7 And A10 Might Be Based Completely On Compact SiP Architecture

    When it comes to upgrades, Apple’s known to think long and hard before introducing any new features in its devices. It’s a strategy which has worked quite well for the company for a long time. In fact, the original iPod launched at the helm of Apple’s revival came after a long and detailed study of other mp3 players on the market and was a smashing success at the time of its launch. It’s also another reason Apple’s iPhone lineup still manages to do well, despite claims of the devices being too overpriced for their specifications. And today, we’ve got another feature that Apple seems to have thought long and hard about.

    Apple Investing In Relationships With SiP Partners To Increase Scope

    Apple’s launch of the Apple Watch was important in several aspects. Aside from being a completely new product from the company in quite a while, and officially marking its entry into the smartwatch segment, the Apple Watch comes with several important features on board. One of these, Force Touch has also been introduced in the MacBook by Apple, and now by the looks of things so far, its very likely that the iPhone 6s duo comes with it as well.
    The second of these is in the Apple Watch’s processor, the Apple S1. Even though the S1 is manufactured on the 28nm process, it comes with its very own SiP architecture, which in layman terms means that the processor has all of its major components integrated into a single package. SiP is a term which has also popped up with regards to the A9 expected to come with the iPhone 6s duo, and according to today’s information, looks like Apple’s going to increase its SiP capabilities significantly.




    The company is reportedly in talks with Silicon Precision Industry which will allow SPIL to become Apple’s product partners and will make Cupertino greatly expand its SiP capabilities. In addition, the source also claims that Apple’s considering to involve SPIL in its A10 manufacturing, which should mean that we’d most likely see the A10 reduced greatly in space, even if that’s not the case on the A9.
    Currently however, the main focus of the partnership will be related to the Apple watch and its related components, and if things go smoothly from there then we should expect a more mature partnership between the two.
    Thoughts? Let us know what you think in the comments section below and stay tuned for the latest updates as they occur.
