Earlier we have heard the news that Sony might be working on a new pair of WF-1000X earbuds. The device was presumed to the successors of the WF-1000XM3 that Sony released in July 2019. But, finally, the rumours are confirmed and according to sources, agencies such as the Bluetooth SIG and FCC have now certified the WF-1000XM4.
The earbuds are dubbed as the YY2948, with AK8 the grantee code for the Sony Corporation in the FCC’s case. The Bluetooth SIG does not give much away about the WF-1000XM4, beyond that it supports Bluetooth 5.2.
According to the FCC, the WF-1000XM4 has a MediaTek MT2822S SoC, up from the MT2811S found in the WF-1000XM3. From what we know, the MT2822 has a faster CPU combined with an improved DSP coprocessor.
The MediaTek chip also supports up to 24-bit and 192 kHz audio like the MT2811S, but the former utilizes Hardware Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) and hardware gain control.
The FCC has provided a sketch of the WF-1000XM4’s charging case and since the manufacturer has included a MediaTek SoC, the possibilities of the WF-1000XM4 supporting any aptX codecs is nil. We have also heard that Sony might also include its proprietary LDAC codec. It is unclear when Sony will release the WF-1000XM4, but the FCC suggests that the earbuds will arrive before September.
It is also being reported that apart from supporting the latest Bluetooth 5.2, the device will also support the older Bluetooth 5.0. the price information is not yet known, but Sony will most likely keep the device somewhere around the same budget segment of the WF-1000XM3.
Apple is known for being truly committed to closed-source hardware and software and as such doesn’t allow anyone to replace or customize its hardware products. As such, it is nearly impossible to replace RAM on our Macs. However, some technicians in the country of China have reported successfully upgrading their Mac’s RAM.
According to the latest sources, technicians in Guangzhou, China have made it possible to upgrade the RAM and storage of Apple’s M1 Mac. Reports are flooding in, stating that the new silicon from Apple, sits well with other customized internal components.
There always had been a debate as to whether one can upgrade the components of a Mac, however, many have tried to upgrade the device only to fail in the end. The news was circulating on Chinese social media throughout the weekend. According to reports, the technicians managed to replace the RAM and SSD chips from the M1 Mac with a larger capacity module.
According to the released photos, the MacBook Air with 8GB of RAM was upgraded to 16GB of RAM with storage bumping from 256GB to 1TB. It was also reported that the macOS showed the correct information which means that the new modules are compatible with the software and hardware.
Apple sell’s its Macs with the RAM and memory chips soldered to the motherboard, which means that it is more challenging than a standard swapping procedure. The chances of failing are quite high, and any customization attempt means that the warranty is also breached, so you can’t take your device back to Apple.
The fact that we can safely replace and upgrade the component of the Mac is a pretty huge discovery and might open doors for more future possibilities.
We all have heard the rumours about Apple unveiling its new iPhone 13 in September this year, however, more than the device we are all excited to peek at the new processor powering the upcoming iPhone.
Apple is reportedly been pulling extra timers to ensure that there is no delay in the release of the product. Coming to the processor, it is being reported that the Taiwanese Semiconductor Manufacturing Company will start mass production of the A15 Bionic chipset in late May.
Early reports also indicated a possible production date for the A15 Bionic. But, now it has been confirmed that the chip will enter into mass production by the end of May. The new silicon is also reported to be produced using TSMC’s enhanced 5nm node, also known as N5P.
Due to the involvement of TSMC’s new 5nm process node, it is estimated that the performance and power efficiency of Apple’s upcoming processor will be improved. Apple has currently booked more than half of TSMC’s fabs to increase the production rate of its processors. Last year the Cupertino giant had to delay the release of its iPhone 12 owing to the global pandemic. And this time the company has to face the global chip crisis.
As such, the iPhone maker doesn’t want to take any chances with its launch schedule and will be starting the production of its processor beforehand. As the global chip crisis has crippled most smartphone makers, Apple on the other is yet to experience any severe crisis like its competitors. At least for a few months, we can expect Apple to have a steady supply of components it needs to manufacture it’s iPhone 13.
