Apple Japan bumps iPhone 13 lineup pricing amidst inflation of yen against the dollar

Beginning Thursday, Apple Japan has updated its pricing for all iPhone models. Some models have increased in price by as much as 20%, which could reflect the weakening of the Japanese Yen against the US Dollar, which has lost about 15% of its value to the dollar in the last three months. The iPhone 13 Pro, for instance, is now priced at 144,800 yen (~$1,066) up from 122,800 yen (~$904) for the 128GB storage option.

Nothing ear (1) TWS earbuds are getting a refresh

On July 12 Nothing will finally fully unveil the phone (1), but it looks like it might not be the only product that's going to get stage time on that occasion. Prolific leakster Mukul Sharma has dug up a picture of some Nothing ear (1) TWS earbuds that look almost identical to the existing model, but not entirely. These look like a minor refresh, and with almost a year having passed since the ear (1) came out, that's not very surprising. The new buds replace the Nothing ear (1) branding on the stems of the originals with ear (1) Stick. They also have two dots at the bottom instead of...

Incoming Montblanc Summit 3 running Wear OS 3.0 will be compatible with iOS

The state of Wear OS is still not clear. Google promised an overhaul with Wear OS 3 and we’re expecting a new Google Pixel Watch that runs Wear OS 3. The only Wear OS 3 wearables on the market for a while were last year’s Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 models and these were the first time Samsung’s Watches were no longer compatible on iOS.

Week 25 in review: Poco F4 and X4 GT are official

Welcome to the end of week number 25. Let's take a look back. Samsung has apparently accumulated some 50 million unsold smartphones. The A-series is reportedly mostly to blame, failing to meet its sales targets for one reason or another. 50 million is around 18% of Samsung's planned shipment target this year, which isn't good at all. Samsung made around 20 million units per month early this year, but that dropped to around 10 million in May. This could be a reaction to having too many units stuck in inventory and seeing low demand. The lower demand has also made Samsung cut its component...

Weekly poll results: most people are fine with 256GB storage on their phones

Last week we asked you how much storage you use on your phone. It turns out most can fit within 256GB total. “Total” because we also queried you about your thoughts on microSD slots on phones. Here’s the breakdown. Just over 40% of people can squeeze in 128GB or less. That said, 36% need at least 256GB. This means 128GB models are still viable, but you should be looking at a phone with more room if you want to keep it for a long time.
