Could Apple abandon Globalstar for Elon Musk’s SpaceX in new satellite deal?
According to a Thursday report by news outlet The Information, Elon Musk’s SpaceX could provide satellite connectivity to Apple’s iPhones in the future.
Aaron Tilley and Wayne Ma for The Information:
In recent months, in anticipation of a possible future arrangement with Apple, SpaceX has added support in its new satellite designs for the same radio spectrum Apple uses for the iPhone’s current satellite features, which Globalstar provides, according to a person with direct knowledge of the matter. That could allow SpaceX’s Starlink unit to deliver satellite communications capabilities to existing Apple devices when Starlink’s next-generation satellite constellation begins operating in the coming years.
In recent months, in anticipation of a possible future arrangement with Apple, SpaceX has added support in its new satellite designs for the same radio spectrum Apple uses for the iPhone’s current satellite features, which Globalstar provides, according to a person with direct knowledge of the matter. That could allow SpaceX’s Starlink unit to deliver satellite communications capabilities to existing Apple devices when Starlink’s next-generation satellite constellation begins operating in the coming years.
At the same time, the chair of Globalstar, James Monroe, has talked to associates about the possibility of selling his satellite company for more than $10 billion, said people who heard him make the remarks (Globalstar’s current market capitalization is $5.3 billion). Such a deal could signal that Globalstar and Apple are seeking more independence from each other.
A deal between Apple and SpaceX would significantly boost Musk’s aspirations for SpaceX to become a significant provider of wireless services directly to phones. Starlink is currently the leading provider of satellite internet service, mostly to customers who use it via antennas atop their homes or vehicles. But connecting ordinary smartphones to satellites—to keep those devices online when they’re out of reach of conventional cellular networks — could greatly expand the reach of Starlink’s services.
SpaceX is investing heavily to realize that goal. Last month, it reached an agreement to acquire EchoStar’s wireless spectrum for $17 billion. That spectrum will help SpaceX deliver faster internet service to phones globally. It already has partnerships with traditional telecom players like T-Mobile to connect its satellites directly to phones. Last month, SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell said the company is working with chipmakers to get them to integrate Starlink connectivity into phones…
Globalstar has struggled against SpaceX’s growing dominance in satellite communications and remains highly dependent on Apple, which has invested around $2 billion into Globalstar over the past three years. In Globalstar’s most recent quarterly earnings filing, it included a warning for the first time about Apple, its most important customer: “The loss of the Customer would likely have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.”
SpaceX, in contrast, is an ambitious, well-capitalized juggernaut that recently launchedits 10,000th Starlink satellite and accounts for more than 60% of all active satellites orbiting Earth, by some estimates. One of Starlink’s biggest advantages is the fact that SpaceX rockets launch more payloads into space than any other company or government in the world.
MacDailyNews Take: Apple would do well to think apolitically and ink deals to use both SpaceX’s superior Starlink satellite connectivity and xAI’s outstanding Grok in Apple Intelligence.
iPhone users, including non-T-Mobile subscribers, can add T-Satellite with Starlink by calling 1-844-638-8913 or visiting a T-Mobile retail store. More info here.
Note: On February 28, 2023, Apple lent Globalstar $252 million to help cover upfront costs for replenishing its low Earth orbit (LEO) constellation to support Apple’s “Emergency SOS via satellite.”

Apple pulls ‘Tea’ and ‘TeaOnHer’ apps from its App Store
This summer, the Tea app — a platform where women anonymously rated and discussed men, ostensibly to help each other date safely —suffered data breaches that exposed users’ personal information. In response, men launched a counterpart app called TeaOnHer, while Tea faced a class-action lawsuit from users furious over their private data being vulnerable to hackers. Now, Apple has removed both from the App Store.w
Lindsey Ellefson for Lifehacker:
Tea was around for about two years before it unexpectedly went viral in July, which led to at least two distinct data breaches, the second of which occurred when a data expert discovered that not only were some users’ pictures stored in an unsecured manner, but some private DMs were, too.
Part of the reason the app went so viral in the first place was that a lot of people were uncomfortable with its premise. It functioned like Yelp, but instead of reviewing businesses, women could review men. The men had no recourse or due process; they couldn’t even access the app, let alone respond to anything said about them.
Some people found that unfair and others saw an opportunity to cash in on the discontent. TeaOnHer, an app with the same premise but aimed at men, hit the App Store about two weeks after the Tea hack. The privacy discourse continued, but both apps remained up in the Apple App Store anyway. Until now.
Apple confirmed to TechCrunch that the apps were pulled because they failed to meet the company’s requirements for user privacy and content moderation

Tinder owner Match claims Apple’s App Store fees will stifle growth in India
Match Group, owner of Tinder, claims in its submission to India’s antitrust body that Apple’s fee of up to 30% will gradually choke its revenues, urging steep fines to safeguard its business.
Reuters:
Since 2022, Match has been locked in an antitrust battle with Apple at the Competition Commission of India… Apple has denied wrongdoing and said it is a small player in India where phones mostly use Google’s Android system.
In a response dated October 13 to the CCI investigators’ findings, which Reuters is the first to report on, Match urged the watchdog to issue final directives asking Apple to discontinue its anti-competitive practices.
“Apple’s policies adversely affect the return on capital and revenue streams of Match’s portfolio brands,” Match said in its submissions, reviewed by Reuters. “In the long term, the constraints and excessive fee imposed by Apple will stifle the growth and scalability of Match’s portfolio brands,” it added, without quantifying the impact…
iOS powered an estimated 4.5% of 735 million smartphones in India as of mid-2025, with the rest using Android, Counterpoint Research says.

Stocks hit record highs on positive U.S. inflation data
U.S. stocks surged to record highs on Friday as major indexes climbed, fueled by data revealing even milder-than-expected inflation last month and bolstering bets on a Federal Reserve interest rate cut at next week’s policy meeting.
Reuters:
The U.S. Consumer Price Index rose 0.3% last month, slightly less than the expected 0.4%, after climbing 0.4% in August.
“Today’s inflation data shows that we’re not in a crisis like 2022. Prices are growing, but at a controlled pace. That’s good news if you’re hoping the Fed will continue to cut interest rates,” said Callie Cox, chief market strategist at Ritholtz Wealth Management in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The Fed is expected to reduce rates two more times this year, with a quarter-percentage-point cut baked in for the October 28-29 meeting, according to LSEG calculations using rate futures.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 346.77 points, or 0.74%, to 47,081.38, the S&P 500 rose 52.67 points, or 0.78%, to 6,791.01, and the Nasdaq Composite rose 251.42 points, or 1.10%, to 23,193.53.
Five of the so-called “Magnificent Seven” U.S. companies at the center of the artificial intelligence boom, including Apple and Microsoft, are due to report earnings next week.
MacDailyNews Take: Probability of the too-late-to-raise, too-late-to-cut Fed cutting rates by at least 25 basis points next month is now even higher.
On interest rates, Powell was way late to hike, then didn’t go nearly high enough, and then started cutting too early. Three strikes and you ought to be out. – MacDailyNews, November 15, 2024
Now Powell is too late to cut. Four strikes and counting.

In July 2023, the Fed stopped raising rates too soon. – MacDailyNews, July 2, 2024
A premature rate cut by the Fed is of higher probability in an election year. – MacDailyNews, April 2, 2024
As we wrote in February 2023, “When certain quarters, including the Fed, delude themselves and others that ‘inflation is transitory’ and waste at least a year before doing a mere portion of what is necessary* (interest rate hikes), the price will be paid for being delusional and late.”

Trump administration moves to speed AI data-center hookups to power grids
The Trump administration is urging federal regulators to dramatically speed up approvals for the rapidly expanding AI data-center industry to link up with America’s power grids.
Jennifer A. Dlouhy and Naureen S. Malik for Bloomberg News:
US Energy Secretary Chris Wright urged the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to grant expedited reviews for data-center grid connections, according to documents reviewed by Bloomberg News. Under a draft proposed rule Wright sent to the agency, those reviews would be limited to 60 days, a seismic shift for a process that currently can drag on for years.
Faster approvals would be a major boon to President Donald Trump’s artificial-intelligence ambitions.
This type of rule change has been eagerly anticipated by tech and power executives in the aftermath of the FERC’s rejection of a request by Talen Energy Corp. to directly supply an Amazon.com Inc. data center from a Pennsylvania nuclear plant.
MacDailyNews Take: China is certainly not delaying AI data-center hookups to power grids, quite the opposite, actually.

Apple begins shipping American-made AI servers from Houston plant
Apple announced on Thursday that it has begun shipping AI servers manufactured at its Houston factory, as part of a broader plan to invest $600 billion in America over the coming years.
These servers feature custom Apple-designed chips to enable Appel Intelligence AI capabilities on iPhones, iPads, and Macs while maintaining the company’s strict privacy standards.
Reuters:
Servers from the factory will be installed in Apple’s data centers throughout the U.S., Apple said on Thursday.
“Our teams have done an incredible job accelerating work to get the new Houston factory up and running ahead of schedule and we plan to continue expanding the facility to increase production next year,” Apple Chief Operating Officer Sabih Khan said in a statement.
Melissa Luck for the Houston Chronicle:
Originally slated to open next year, the 250,000-square-foot facility in North Houston started operations ahead of schedule, Apple said in a statement Thursday.
However, construction is still ongoing, with local contractors expected to continue to build out and expand its Houston plant, Apple said. The project is underway within a northwest Houston industrial park at 8702 Fairbanks Road.
“We’re thrilled to be shipping American-made advanced servers from our Houston facility,” said Sabih Khan, Apple’s Chief Operating Officer. “As part of our $600 billion commitment to the United States, these servers will be installed in our data centers and play a key role in powering Apple Intelligence with Private Cloud Compute.”

New Dual Knit Band helps Apple Vision Pro feels noticeably lighter on your head
Apple’s new Dual Knit Band delivers a more comfortable fit for Apple Vision Pro users. It features upper and lower straps that are 3D-knitted as a single piece to create a unique dual-rib structure that provides cushioning, breathability, and stretch. The lower strap features flexible fabric ribs embedded with tungsten inserts that provide a counterweight for additional comfort, balance, and stability. And the intuitive dual-function Fit Dial allows users to make fine-tuned adjustments to achieve their ideal fit. The new Dual Knit Band comes in small, medium, and large sizes. It’s available to purchase separately and is compatible with the previous-generation Apple Vision Pro.
Apple Vision Pro weighs 26.4–28.2 ounces or 750–800 grams (weight varies depending on Light Seal and head band configuration).
The default strap on the first Vision Pro only supported the back, though an optional Dual Loop Band used thin Velcro straps that offered limited support on both the top and back.
Neither of the original offerings worked well. Many users reported pressure and pain on the front of the face, forehead, neck or back of the head — sometimes within minutes of putting the headset on. It’s surprising that Apple spent eight years developing the device but didn’t fully understand or resolve the comfort concerns before launch.
When you pick up the new band for the first time, it feels heavier than the original straps — thanks to the added cushioning and metal inserts in the back that act as counterweights. But once you actually put it on, the headset feels noticeably lighter on your head.
I was able to use the Vision Pro for more than an hour with the new band without noticeable pain or discomfort. From that standpoint, it’s a no-brainer upgrade if you’ve already invested in the headset.
That said, this band doesn’t make the headset comfortable enough for a full workday — not that most users would want to wear it that long anyway…
The company now promotes the Vision Pro as shipping with a “comfortable band” — an acknowledgment that the first version was anything but.

Apple loses UK lawsuit over app store commissions
A London tribunal ruled on Thursday that Apple abused its dominant position by imposing unfair commissions on app developers, a decision that could cost the U.S. tech giant hundreds of millions of pounds in damages. The Competition Appeal Tribunal (CAT) issued the ruling following a trial of a lawsuit filed on behalf of millions of UK iPhone and iPad users.
The CAT ruled that Apple had abused its dominant position from October 2015 until the end of 2020 by shutting out competition in the app distribution market and by “charging excessive and unfair prices” as commission to developers.
Apple – which has faced mounting pressure from regulators in the U.S. and Europe over the fees it charges developers – said it would appeal against the ruling, which it said “takes a flawed view of the thriving and competitive app economy”.
The case had been valued at around 1.5 billion pounds ($2 billion) by those who brought it. A hearing next month will decide how damages are calculated and Apple’s application for permission to appeal.
Rachael Kent, the British academic who brought the case, argued Apple had made “exorbitant profits” by excluding all competition for the distribution of apps and in-app purchases.
“This ruling overlooks how the App Store helps developers succeed and gives consumers a safe, trusted place to discover apps and securely make payments,” an Apple spokesperson said.
MacDailyNews Take: Overturn this wretched travesty on appeal!
Apple’s App Store is a boon for developers. Most UK developers do not have to pay any App Store commission whatsoever. For those who do, roughly half pay 15 percent, which is a pittance for all that the App Store delivers to developers. – MacDailyNews, December 3, 2024

Florida’s iPhone bans in schools help raise test scores, study shows
A new study in Florida found that students separated from their cellphones during school hours had fewer absences and higher test scores. The latest data showed disciplinary incidents stabilizing and test scores rising by roughly two to three percentile points compared to pre-ban levels, researchers reported.
Anna Kutz and Brooke Shafer for NewsNation:
The new study is not peer-reviewed and only looked at one large Florida school district, but researchers said it is the first evidence of the effects of a statewide cellphone ban.
Florida was the first state to pass such a law, but a majority of states have followed suit with laws banning or regulating cellphone use in schools.
With roughly 25% of children owning a cellphone by age 8, students across the nation are feeling the effects of these bans and regulations.
Superintendents at four school districts in Connecticut said they have not only seen academic improvement, but also improved mental health.
The principal at Lakeside High School near Atlanta told CBS News that faculty saw a positive change in student behavior after banning phones during the school day.
Read “The Impact Of Cellphone Bans In Schools On Student Outcomes” report via the National Bureau of Economic Research here.
MacDailyNews Take: Bell-to-bell bans of smartphones should be the policy of every K-12 school, public and private.

OpenAI’s new ChatGPT Atlas browser – Mac-only for now – shows the future of the internet, but it’s not fully baked, yet
OpenAI’s ChatGPT Atlas is a new web browser built with ChatGPT at its core. It’s Mac-only, for now. OpenAI says the browser is meant to take users closer to a true super-assistant that understands their world and helps them achieve their goals.
[T]he most enticing part of the release is the browser’s agentic capabilities called Agent mode, which allows users to ask the browser to complete multistep tasks such as booking a flight, shopping online, or performing data analysis. The browser then literally takes control of the screen to accomplish tasks for the user.
I tried Agent mode for myself at home. I downloaded Atlas and asked it to order Pad Thai on Uber Eats from my favorite local Thai restaurant. The browser eventually figured it out but struggled with various food options, clicking around the page, and sorting through pop-up ads. The whole exercise took several minutes to complete.
In its current state, it is too slow. I would rather just do it myself. But the potential is obvious. The main impediment is the browser analyzes each page based from taking image screenshots and tries to figure out where to click on each site’s interface.
From what I saw, I’m convinced agentic and AI browsers are the future, but the current iteration feels a bit like when I first tried America Online to use the internet over dial-up modems. I’m confident it will get better. It might take a year to be useful.

Apple said to skip over ‘iPhone 19’ directly to ‘iPhone 20’ for 20th anniversary debut
In a bold move to celebrate two decades of smartphone innovation, Apple is poised to bypass the anticipated “iPhone 19” branding and leap directly to the “iPhone 20” in 2027, according to leading market research firm Omdia. This strategic pivot signals a major refresh in Apple’s product lineup and release cadence, coinciding with the 20th anniversary of the original iPhone’s debut in June 2007.
Reports by ETNews, the forecast was unveiled during a recent industry conference at Seoul’s L Tower, where Huh Moo-yeol, a senior researcher at Omdia, outlined Apple’s ambitious roadmap. Speaking to a packed audience of tech executives and analysts, Huh revealed that the company plans a dual-wave launch in 2027: the iPhone 18e and base-model iPhone 20 in the first half of the year, followed by the premium iPhone 20 Air, iPhone 20 Pro, iPhone 20 Pro Max, and the second-generation iPhone Fold in the latter half.
“This isn’t just a numbering tweak — it’s a full reset,” Huh explained, emphasizing Apple’s intent to synchronize the relaunch with its historic milestone. While Huh did not delve into specific motivations during the presentation, industry observers point to Apple’s precedent of marking anniversaries with memorable nomenclature. In 2017, for the iPhone’s 10th birthday, the tech giant introduced the “iPhone X” — skipping “9” to incorporate the Roman numeral for 10 — ushering in OLED displays and facial recognition technology. The jump to “iPhone 20” in 2027 appears to follow suit, blending nostalgia with forward-looking design.
Apple’s traditional annual fall rollout has seen steady increments, from iPhone 16 this year to the forthcoming iPhone 17 series. However, Omdia’s projections suggest a deliberate shake-up beginning in 2026. Next year’s iPhone 18 lineup will reportedly exclude the standard model, opting instead for the Air, Pro, Pro Max variants, and the debut of a foldable iPhone. This streamlined approach is expected to trim iPhone panel shipments by roughly 20 million units in 2026, a temporary dip attributed to the one-year absence of the entry-level device.
The foldable entrant, slated for a 2026 bow, could emerge as a game-changer. Omdia anticipates initial shipments exceeding 8 million units, injecting fresh momentum into Apple’s ecosystem amid intensifying competition from Samsung and other Android rivals in the flexible-screen arena.
Despite the short-term contraction, Huh remains optimistic about long-term growth. “This year’s iPhone panel shipments are hovering around 245 million units — a healthy uptick from last year,” he noted. “Even with a dip in 2026, the dual-release strategy and foldable success in 2027 should propel volumes back above 250 million annually.”
Apple’s iPhone franchise — responsible for over half of the company’s revenue — continues to dominate the premium smartphone market. As whispers of under-display cameras, advanced AI integrations, and slimmer form factors swirl for future models, the “iPhone 20” era promises to redefine mobile computing once more.
MacDailyNews Take: If it’s even half as good as the leap from iPhone 8 to iPhone X, “iPhone 20” (or “iPhone XX” maybe?) will be a stunning release!

Apple in the running to buy Warner Bros. Discovery
Apple is among the potential buyers, but David Ellison’s Paramount Skydance is viewed as the frontrunner to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery. Analysts and experts highlight the tech heir’s substantial financial resources and strong Washington connections as key advantages in what could become the media industry’s largest merger in years.
Fresh from closing the Paramount-Skydance deal in August, the emerging media powerhouse is now targeting one of Hollywood’s crown jewels—home to HBO, Warner Bros. Studios, and a streaming platform boasting over 120 million subscribers.
Apple is presumably interested in Warner Bros’ vast film and TV library, along with HBO’s myriad lauded series, to bolster its growing, high-quality Apple TV library.
Reuters:
His $60 billion approach was rejected by Warner Bros Discovery on Tuesday, Reuters first reported. But the company has put a for-sale sign and attracted other potential suitors including Comcast, Netflix, and Apple, according to media reports.
At $30 a share – the price Bank of America analyst Jessica Reif Ehrlich estimates Warner Bros Discovery could fetch in a sale – the company would be valued at about $74 billion, a figure analysts say could deter some bidders but remains within reach for Ellison, whose father Larry Ellison is the world’s second-richest person with a net worth of about $330 billion.
Apple had $36.3 billion in cash at June-end and could easily raise debt to fund a takeover but it has historically avoided large deals – its biggest remains the $3 billion Beats purchase.
Netflix holds about $9.3 billion in cash and has never done a deal exceeding $1 billion, while Comcast’s $9.7 billion cash pile means any bid would likely rely heavily on debt or outside partners.
David Ellison also enjoys a unique advantage over rival bidders – his father’s close ties with U.S. President Donald Trump. Larry Ellison has long been a Republican mega-donor and one of the few high-profile tech executives who were openly supportive of Trump before last November’s election.
“If anyone does buy the whole thing, or even split it into two and buy the two bits, it’s going to have to have the blessing of the current U.S. administration,” said Clea Bourne, Head of Subject of Strategic Communications and Journalism at the Goldsmiths, University of London. “And that’s where the Ellisons stand out very easily, because their cart is very close to the administration.”
MacDailyNews Take: The chance of Apple doing a deal like this is roughly 0%.

Apple Original Films lands ‘Sponsor,’ starring and co-written by Jason Segel
Today, Apple Original Films announced it has landed the global rights to “Sponsor.” Apple Studios will produce the new feature starring Jason Segel and directed by James Ponsoldt. Set to be shot in California, the film hails from an original idea co-written by Segel and Ponsoldt, who also serve as executive producers on Apple’s Emmy Award-nominated comedy “Shrinking.”
In “Sponsor,” Peter (Segel) makes a big mistake when he gets behind the wheel after partying too hard. A terrible accident leaves him with a choice: prison or a recovery program. Convinced he doesn’t have a drinking problem, he begrudgingly shows up to his first meeting and searches for a sponsor. In walks no-nonsense, charismatic yet enigmatic Jerry. Peter is convinced Jerry is the answer to his prayers.
Hailing from Apple Studios and produced by Platinum Dunes, “Sponsor” will be produced by Segel and Ponsoldt, and Michael Bay, Brad Fuller and Alex Ginno will produce for Platinum Dunes. The film marks the latest collaboration for Apple, Segel and Ponsoldt following Emmy Award-nominated comedy “Shrinking,” which returns for its third season on January 28, 2026. Segel and Ponsoldt also previously collaborated on the 2015 feature “The End of the Tour,” in which Segel starred and Ponsoldt directed.
“Sponsor” will join a growing slate of award-winning and global hit Apple Original Films, including “F1 The Movie,” the highest-grossing sports feature of all time, set to make its global debut on Apple TV on December 12, 2025. In addition to Apple TV making history as the first streaming service to land the Academy Award for Best Picture with “CODA,” Apple Original Film “The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse” also earned the Academy Award for Best Animated Short, and “Killers of the Flower Moon” landed 10 historic Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture. Apple Original Films also recently premiered “The Lost Bus,” an emotional, action-packed rescue drama directed by Academy Award nominee Paul Greengrass, and starring Matthew McConaughey and America Ferrera; “Highest 2 Lowest,” the latest feature reuniting Spike Lee with Denzel Washington for the fifth time; Emmy Award nominee “The Gorge,” starring Miles Teller and Anya Taylor-Joy; “Wolfs,” starring George Clooney and Brad Pitt; “The Instigators,” starring Matt Damon and Casey Affleck; Academy Award-winning director Steve McQueen’s “Blitz”; and “Echo Valley,” the thriller from BAFTA Award winner Michael Pearce, starring Academy Award winner Julianne Moore and multi-Emmy Award nominee Sydney Sweeney.

Apple hit with EU antitrust complaint over App Store policies
Two civil rights groups, Article 19 and Germany’s Society for Civil Rights, filed a complaint with EU antitrust regulators on Wednesday, accusing Apple of violating the Digital Markets Act through its App Store terms and device conditions.
Reuters:
Apple, which has previously said its rules ensure marketplaces meet specific minimum requirements to protect users and developers, dismissed the claims as false and put the blame on the Commission.
“The EC is mandating how we run our store and forcing business terms that are confusing for developers and bad for users,” Apple said in an email.
“Months ago, we notified the EC of our plans to roll out additional changes to the letter of credit requirements to provide more flexibility for developers but the Commission asked us not to.”
The civil rights groups singled out a stand-by letter of credit (SBLC) of 1 million euros required from developers who want to develop apps for distribution in Apple’s App Store or who want to install a third-party app store as a native app in Apple’s iOS and iPadOS.
“A 1,000,000 euro SBLC can impose a recurring annual cost and collateral requirements that many SMEs cannot meet,” said the 16-page complaint seen by Reuters.
The groups urged the Commission to fine Apple. DMA penalties can be as much as 10% of a company’s global annual revenue.

GM to kill Apple CarPlay and Android Auto on all its vehicles, not just its poor-selling EVs
GM CEO Mary Barra says consumers should expect the full phase out of CarPlay and Google’s CarPlay knockoff, Android Auto, in both electric and gas-powered vehicles over the next few years. Just last week, GM took a $1.6 billion write-down on its anemic EV business due to shrinking demand.
GM plans to drop support for phone projection on all new vehicles in the near future, and not just its electric car lineup, according to GM CEO Mary Barra.
In a Decoder interview with The Verge’s Nilay Patel, published Wednesday, Barra confirmed GM will eventually end support of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto on both gas-powered and electric cars as the company proceeds to a major rollout of what it’s calling a new centralized computing platform, set to launch in 2028.
In place of phone projection, GM is working to update its current Android-powered infotainment experience with a Google Gemini-powered assistant and an assortment of other custom apps, built both in-house and with partners.
MacDailyNews Take: As we wrote when GM promised to end support in its EV lineup, “For us, and many, many others, General Motors simply moves even further out of consideration for future purchases (GM never really was in consideration anyway).”

Apple pushes for resumption of App Store commissions in U.S. federal appeals court
Apple is returning to a U.S. federal appeals court on Tuesday to challenge a ruling that prevents the company from charging commissions on transactions occurring outside the App Store, effectively requiring it to allow links to cheaper payment alternatives for free.
Josh Sisco for Bloomberg News:
The hearing before the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco is the latest twist in a more than five-year saga pitting the tech giant against Epic Games Inc., maker of the popular Fortnite game.
Apple is appealing an April ruling from US District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers that the company “willfully” defied her 2021 order to open up its App Store, which brings in billions of dollars annually for the company from the commissions it takes on digital sales.
The April ruling blocks Apple from charging commissions on transactions that take place outside the App Store. It also limits Apple from placing restrictions on the language and design that developers use to send customers to their own websites to make sales. The same three judges who upheld Rogers’ earlier 2021 decision will hear the current appeal.
Following a 2021 trial, Gonzalez Rogers largely sided with Apple in finding that its App Store policies didn’t defy federal antitrust law. However, she found the company violated California state law and ordered Apple to allow developers to direct consumers to cheaper payment options online. The ruling was upheld by the 9th Circuit and US Supreme Court.
In response, Apple allowed developers to point users to the web for transactions, but it imposed a new 27% commission on revenue generated that way. Epic then accused Apple of flouting the 2021 ruling by imposing the new commission along with other restrictions on the placement and design of links.
After several weeks of hearings, Rogers concluded that Apple “willfully” violated her injunction and referred the company to federal prosecutors for a possible criminal probe.
MacDailyNews Take: Apple has a right to charge for advertising – in this case, advertising of lower prices elsewhere – in its App Store.
Rogers’ order is ludicrous and should be overturned on appeal as it basically says that Apple has no right to charge for advertising in its own store.
This is akin to a judge forcing Best Buy and Target to place signs next to each product that advertise lower prices for the same items at Walmart…
If developers like Epic Games want to advertise lower prices [to be had elsewhere via] Apple’s App Store, Apple should simply begin charging an “In-Store Advertising” fee, because that’s exactly what it would be. – MacDailyNews, July 27, 2023
The bottom line is clear: Epic Games wants to enjoy all of the benefits of Apple’s App Store, including access to well over one billion of the world’s most affluent users for free. That is illogical, unfair, and, basically, theft. – MacDailyNews, May 4, 2021
How much did it cost developers to have their apps burned onto CDs, boxed, shipped, displayed on store shelves prior to Apple remaking the world for the better for umpteenth time? Apple incurs costs to store, review, organize, surface, and distribute apps to over one billion users. — MacDailyNews, June 10, 2022

Apple’s iPhone leaps into 3nm while Android peddlers face 20% chip price hike
In a stark reminder of the semiconductor industry’s relentless march toward smaller, more powerful chips, Apple’s latest iPhone 17 series has officially hit the market, powered by the cutting-edge A19 processor on TSMC’s advanced 3nm N3P process. Yet, as the tech giant smooths its transition to the 2nm era with its upcoming A20 chip, the Android ecosystem is bracing for a wave of inflation, with flagship processors from MediaTek and Qualcomm seeing price tags inflate by up to 20% for their final 3nm iterations.
The disparity highlights a pivotal moment in mobile computing: while Apple secures early access to TSMC’s bleeding-edge technology, competitors in the Android camp are wrapping up their reliance on the 3nm node, driving up costs just as AI-fueled demand strains global supply chains for memory and storage.
Apple’s Seamless Shift and Android’s Price Pinch
Apple’s iPhone 17 lineup, unveiled amid much fanfare, integrates the A19 chip fabricated on TSMC’s N3P process—a refined 3nm technology that promises enhanced performance and energy efficiency over its predecessors. Industry insiders note that this marks the tail end of Apple’s 3nm reliance, with the next-generation A20 processor slated to enter full production on TSMC’s groundbreaking 2nm platform as early as next year.
In contrast, the Android world is hitting a pricing wall. MediaTek is poised to launch its Dimensity 9500 flagship chip this week, followed closely by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. Both leverage the same N3P process but represent the “last-generation” 3nm mobile processors, according to supply chain sources. “This generation of Qualcomm and MediaTek processors, though the last 3nm flagship chips, adopt TSMC’s latest process, with quotes having a rise of 16 to 24%,” one anonymous source told China Times.
The result? A roughly 20% average uptick in costs compared to prior generations, pushing unit prices for these high-end chips higher amid dwindling production runs. Looking ahead, the leap to 2nm — initially targeting AI and high-performance computing applications before trickling down to smartphones — could balloon prices by more than 50%. Analysts project flagship mobile chip units could command up to $280 apiece by the end of 2026, a figure that underscores TSMC’s massive capital investments in advanced nodes.”
TSMC’s advanced process has huge capital expenditures, but yields have already met standards first, so there are no discount or negotiation strategies temporarily,” the China Times source added, explaining the lack of bargaining power for chip designers.
AI Boom Fuels Broader Inflation in Memory and Storage
The chip crunch extends beyond mobile processors, as explosive demand from AI data centers ripples through the ecosystem. Major memory suppliers like Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron are adjusting prices upward across DRAM and NAND flash products, while hard drive giants Western Digital (WD) and SanDisk report delivery times stretching from a standard one month to over six months.
This “semiconductor inflation” isn’t isolated to high-end flagships; it’s percolating across consumer electronics, servers, and enterprise gear, potentially hiking the overall bill of materials for next-generation devices.
Expert Warnings: Will Consumers Bite the Bullet?
For now, the iPhone 17’s reception suggests Apple’s bet on premium tech is paying off, with early reviews praising the A19’s efficiency gains. But for Android users eyeing upgrades, the math is tougher: a 20% chip hike today could translate to meaningfully pricier handsets tomorrow, even as 2nm promises revolutionary leaps in AI integration and battery life.
As TSMC dominates the foundry landscape, this transition era underscores the high stakes of innovation in a supply-constrained world. Whether it sparks a premium arms race or a pivot to mid-tier value plays remains to be seen—but one thing is clear: the cost of staying cutting-edge is rising fast.
MacDailyNews Take: Aww, peddlers of pretend iPhones are about to hit the wall and Apple accelerates away!
