There was a global chip sales of $439 billion in 2020: SIA

Over the past few years, the rapid transformation in the digital industry has been due to the amazing transformation we’ve seen in the chip industry. From AMD to Intel or from Qualcomm to MediaTek, every other semiconductor based company is trying to make its mark in this huge market.

In 2020, even though there was a huge pandemic, the recent business reports from Semiconductor Industry Association or SIA, brought to you by ITHome, show a record chip sales worth $439 billion in 2020 itself.

Even though it is up by 6.5 percent year-on-year, no one can deny that the pandemic had a great impact on the business. So, it’s still impressive to see that the global chip sales saw an improvement over last year clearly missing almost a quarter and more for the pandemic.

Among the total sales, the U.S. chipmakers have generated sales of around $208 billion, or 47% of the total. However, the U.S. foreign purchases of chips amounted to a whopping $94.15 billion, up by 19.8% year-on-year.

Interestingly, even though the US alone makes up almost half of the world’s chip production, they account for only 12% of global production in the U.S., compared with 37% in 1990. In 2021, both TSMC and Samsung looks forward to building manufacturing plants in the US to revive US-based chip production.

Alphabet’s first-ever disclosure of Google Cloud’s income shows a $1.2 billion loss for Q4 2020

Alphabet Inc. revealed the operating income metric for its cloud business for the first time, in which its Google Cloud business had an operating loss of $1.24 billion in the Q4 of 2020, a new disclosure that may disappoint some Wall Street analysts.

The Mountain View, California-based tech giant revealed the numbers on Tuesday in a statement. For 2020, the cloud division lost $5.61 billion on $13.06 billion in revenue for the year, Alphabet said.

“An important element of our operating loss is that we have been building out our organization ahead of revenue, and that includes our product portfolio, the network of data centers,” said Ruth Porat, the chief financial officer of Alphabet and Google, according to Bloomberg. She further informed that this will help the company pursue this large market opportunity.

As Google Cloud Chief Executive Officer Thomas Kurian is trying to catch Amazon and Microsoft Corp, the company invests heavily in sales staff, and the unit’s losses appear to be growing. According to a report by CNBC, the company said that “the cloud unit lost $4.65 billion on $8.92 billion in revenue in 2019, and lost $4.35 billion on $5.84 billion in revenue in 2018.”

According to data compiled by Bloomberg, Google Cloud revenue climbed 47% to $3.83 billion in the Q4 of 2020, matching analysts’ estimates.

Brian Fitzgerald was looking for Google Cloud to generate an operating margin of less than 20% in the Q4 of 2020. The analyst at Wells Fargo & Co. estimated roughly $750 million in profit on revenue of $3.75 billion.

American Investment bank Morgan Stanley’s Brian Nowak estimated Google Cloud to make about $3 billion last year, before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA).

The results are way behind Amazon, which runs the largest cloud provider, Amazon Web Services. That business generated Q4 2020 operating income of $3.56 billion on revenue of $12.7 billion.

Some analysts anticipate profitability to arise as the division matures. Nowak sees Google Cloud’s EBITDA reaching $13 billion by 2024 on revenue of $35 billion.

Winners and Losers of the winter transfer window in 2021

The winter transfer window was a rather underwhelming one for fans of permanent transfers, with loan deals taking preference over permanent transfers. Here, we take a look at some of the transfer window’s biggest winners and losers. 

Winner: AC Milan

The Rossoneri managed to sign Mario Mandzukic, Fikayo Tomori and Soualiho Meite, with the latter two joining the team on loan with the option to make the switch permanent. Mateo Musacchio was released and joined Lazio on a free transfer whereas Andrea Conti was loaned out to Parma. Teenage centre-forward Lorenzo Colombo was loaned out to Parma, capping off another successful transfer window for the Serie A club. 

Winner: Arsenal

The Gunners managed to get the hefty wages of Mesut Ozil off their books, and also terminated the contract of Sokratis Papasthathopulous, as well as Shkodran Mustafi, who joined Olympiacos and Schalke respectively. Ainsley Maitland-Niles, Seas Kolasinac, Joe Willock and William Saliba were loaned out to West Brom, Schalke, Newcastle and Nice respectively. 

The arrivals of Martin Odegaard and Matthew Ryan makes Arsenal arguably the biggest winners of the winter transfer window. 

Loser: Dele Alli

Once heralded as the future of the Tottenham midfield, Dele Alli has had a serious falling out with the club and has seen his playing time drastically reduced under Jose Mourinho. PSG were rumoured to be in the race for signing the player on loan but were unable to settle on a deal with Spurs, resulting in the player facing another six months on the bench. 

Winner: Liverpool

With all three of their senior centre-backs out for the season with injuries, Liverpool managed to play their cards well and sign Ozan Kabak on an initial from Schalke, alongside Ben Davies from Preston North End for a fee worth €4 million. The Reds are potentially sorted till the end of the season, and have dealt with their centre-back problems for under €5 million, which caps off another outstanding transfer window performance for the Premier League champions.

Dell Canada leaks AMD EPYC Milan specifications & pricing

It looks like the PowerEdge R6525 of the Dell rack server is already available with the EPYC Milan chip of AMD. Dell Canada has already has listed some of Zen 3 parts as processor options for the dual-socket 1U system, also their pricing and specifications.

Milan will feature the same configuration as Rome, which means the chips will come with eight compute dies and one I/O die. With some significant upgrades, the server processors will max out at 64 cores. AMD has moved to the Zen 3 microarchitecture for Milan, and TSMC’s reported 7nm+ process node.

The compatibility will not be an issue even for the previous generation motherboards because Milan seamlessly fits into the SP3 socket. It is expected that Milan will be operated within 120W to 280W thermal limits and provide similar features as Rome, such as the eight-channel support for PCIe 4.0 and DDR4.

The EPYC 7763 is an expected 64-core EPYX Zen 3 chips from AMD. This model features a 2.45 GHz base clock, an L3 cache of 256MB, and a 280W TDP. The EPYC 7713 seems to have similar specifications to the current EPYC 7662. The EPYC 7713 could have a price tag of 16.7% higher than the EPYC 7662. The EPYC 7543 has a 100 MHz lower base clock speed than the EPYC 7542. Coming to the price, it could cost 11.7% higher than the EPYC 7542.

It seems Milan is not much costly than Rome. The performance increase could come along with the price changes.

Australia Tour of South Africa postponed due to COVID-19

Australia Tour of South Africa postponed due to COVID-19

Australia’s Test tour of South Africa has been postponed due to the COVID-19 Pandemic as South Africa is combatting the second wave of COVID-19, a new form of the virus. Cricket Australia confirmed this news on late Tuesday evening. 

The Australian Cricket Team was scheduled to fly South Africa for a three-Test series later this month but CA’s interim chief executive Nick Hockley said travelling to South Africa posed an “unacceptable” risk to the visitors.

Also, this decision means that Australia’s bid to play in the World Test Championship final, a sturdy goal of the captain of the Australian Cricket Team, Tim Paine, is now out of their hands.

“Following extensive due diligence with medical experts, it has become clear that traveling from Australia to South Africa at this current time poses an unacceptable level of health and safety risk to our players, support staff and the community,” Hockley said in a statement.

“We acknowledge the significant amount of work by CSA in planning for the tour, during which we made it clear that CA was prepared to take on additional cost and effort to make the series happen.”

“This decision has not been made lightly and we are extremely disappointed, especially given the importance of continuing international cricket at this time, our valued relationship with CSA, and our aspirations to compete in the inaugural ICC World Test Championship.”

This was the second major tour of South Africa, which got cancelled in recent times after England yanked out of their trip in the middle through an ODI series after a South African cricketer from the team and two team hotel staff were tested positive for COVID-19. In contrast, the Pakistan women’s team will this week finish a white-ball tour played in Durban completely over the past few weeks, after Sri Lanka’s men’s team played two Test matches against South Africa over the new-year period.

This was also the second men’s Test tour of Australia that has been postponed in the last 12 months after drawing themselves out of a trip to Bangladesh last year. New dates for the Bangladesh or South Africa tours are yet to be announced.

A planned visit from Afghanistan for their first Test against Australia, also got postponed earlier this summer, and The Afghanistan Cricket Board released a statement in December announcing the match will be played in 2021, but this news is yet to be confirmed by CA.

Unless those left out tours or other new series are again added to the schedule, the Aussie men will now face a straight second year without any overseas Test matches as their next scheduled Test series on the International Cricket Council’s Future Tour schedule is the Ashes against England at their home soil next summer.

Australia has a T20 tour of New Zealand beginning this month with an 18-man squad, with many of its stars and first choices missing, including the likes of Steve Smith, David Warner, and Pat Cummins as they had been in the squad for the overlapping tour of South Africa. But CA has already confirmed that those players would not be available for the NZ tour even if the South Africa tour went ahead.

It could mean the back-end for the Sheffield Shield and Marsh One-Day Cup seasons could be administered with the country’s best long-form cricketers. That would also be a rare moment given the regularity of Australian overseas tours in February and March, albeit the Indian Premier League 2021, scheduled for the usual window of April-May, which materializes large for several Australia’s best cricketers ahead of the men’s T20 World Cup scheduled for India later this year.

“As difficult and disappointing a decision as this is, especially for Justin (Langer), Tim and the team, we have a duty of care to our people and their health and safety can’t be compromised,” Hockley said.

“We look forward to playing the series against CSA at a date to be confirmed in due course and we send CSA and the people of South Africa our very best wishes for a successful rollout of the COVID-19 vaccine and a return to normality soon.”

Australia’s visit would have been their first Test tour since the heated and infamous series back in 2018 but the Australian Cricketers Association backed the decision.

“The Australian players were ready for the contest with South Africa, especially to support South African cricket at this time with the added challenge of making the final of the ICC Test Championship,” said the ACA’s interim chief executive, Joe Connellan.

“But this is the right call given the COVID data coming out of South Africa. It’s a decision based on the advice of the medical and health experts and that’s why the ACA supports it,” he further added.

OnePlus Nord N10 5G and N100 will get a price cut on February 8, is this a hint?

OnePlus started exploring the budget segment the last year by launching the Nord 5G at a market-disrupting price segment. After this, you can say OnePlus gained some power in the budget segment and thus within few months launched two more budget-friendly smartphones than the OnePlus Nord 5G. Yes, we are talking about the Nord 10 5G and the Nord N100. Both these smartphones were launched globally and are available in select markets but not in India. Despite this, all the Nord series smartphones have gained quite a popularity.

According to Max Jambor, OnePlus will be dropping the prices of the Nord N10 5G and N100 on 8th February and he has also mentioned that the Nord N10 5G will be 299€ while the latter will be priced at 149€. Originally the starting prices of Nord N10 5G and Nord N100 were €349 and €199, respectively. The company will drop the prices by €50 on each of the two models.

The tipster shares this news and expecting if it any sign. Well if you are thinking about what sign it could be, then you can simply think that the company is willing to introduce another Nord device soon or another budget segment smartphone within this price segment. Usually, companies drop the prices of the predecessors to launch a new successor in the near future so that the prices o not clash and to keep the customers from confusing price ranges and tough decisions.

A few days ago, this tipster had shared that OnePlus will launch the successor of the OnePlus Nord N10 5G with the name OnePlus Nord N1 5G. So in order to fit the successor within the budget segment, the predecessor’s prices are usually dropped by the company to justify the pricing of the new device.

MediaTek Helio M80 is the first-ever company’s mmWave 5G modem

MediaTek has launched its first-ever 5G modem today. The company has named it as Helio M80. This 5G modem works with mmWave 5G networks. It is much faster than the previously offered Dimensity-branded mobile processors. This new modem includes Dynamic Spectrum Sharing (DSS), eight component carriers (8CC), Sub-6 GHz, and mmWave dual connectivity and carrier aggregation.

With this, MediaTek has joined the elite list of Samsung and Qualcomm who have the capabilities to offer ultrafast 5G connectivity. The Taiwanese chipmaker says that this new chipset, Helio M80, won’t be available this year. But it might be launched with the new smartphones next year, that is, by 2022. 

The 5G modem can achieve a download speed and upload speed up to 7.67 Gbps and 3.76 Gbps. The company plans to expand its 5G-enabled portfolio to smartphones, PCs, Mi-Fi hotspots, broadband customer premise equipment (CPE), industrial IoT applications, and more. It is highly suggested that MediaTek might venture into the always-connected PC domain as well with its MediaTek T700 modem. To save battery consumption, MediaTek has introduced two technologies: UltraSave Network Environment Detection and UltraSave OTA Content Awareness.

Based on the kind of network you are in, it helps in adjusting power configuration and operating frequency. mmWave 5G Networks are accessed by only a small set of smartphones. Almost all of these devices are powered by various Samsung and Qualcomm mobile processors. 

The new modem, Helio M80, will be different from both of them. Rather than just top-of-the-line smartphones, it will cater to relatively affordable smartphones with this technology. Thus, expanding the reach of 5G, one of the driving forces of the future.

Candace Parker reportedly moves on from Los Angeles Sparks to Chicago Sky

The 2021 WNBA free agency has started off with a bang. According to Ramona Shelburne of ESPN, Candace Parker will be leaving the Los Angeles Sparks after 13 seasons to play for the Chicago Sky.

On Monday, the Sky officially announced that Parker will play in Chicago next season in a news release calling the deal “one of the biggest free-agent moves in the history of the WNBA.”

The Sky have been moving in the right direction the last few seasons under new coach James Wade, but they were eliminated in heartbreaking fashion in the 2019 playoffs.

“We have great players, we have great young players, we have great veterans. But Candace Parker is a once-in-a-generation-type player,” said Wade. “The fact that she’s a leader, Finals MVP, (league) MVP, all these things, the fact that she’s won on every level consistently. Every team doesn’t have that. Really nobody has ever signed a free agent like this. For us to be the team that has the biggest free-agency signing in league history is special. It means that our players are doing something right, our organization is doing something right,” he added.

The reigning Defensive Player of the Year became the No. 1 pick in the 2008 WNBA draft. She played her first 13 seasons with the Los Angeles Sparks, winning the MVP award twice and Finals MVP in 2016.

“Chicago is where my family raised me; where I first learned the game of basketball; and where I first fell in love with this orange ball,” said Parker in a statement. “I am excited to continue the next chapter of my career where it all began. To my new teammates, my new organization, and my new fans: I’m home.”

In her 13th season, Parker averaged 14.7 points, 9.7 rebounds and 4.6 assists while shooting 51% from the field to finish third in MVP voting.
