The A13 chip in Apple's cheapest iPhone SE beats the most expensive Androids
Apple basically sucker-punched all the Android companies: while those Android companies were focused on entering the premium ($1000+) market, Apple pulled a 360 and introduced a cost-friendly phone with a powerful mobile chip. What a time to be alive.
One reason Apple is able to do this is because they design their own custom chip. I can't imagine Android manufacturers releasing a $400 with a Snapdragon 865 in it. Chip pricing is in Qualcomm's hands.
I feel sorry for OnePlus: the day right after launching their first premium phone, Apple releases a budget-friendly and powerful phone (especially at a time of an uncertain economy). Ouch.
It also means that mid-range Android phones have been put on notice: the eagle has landed in their territory. -
Apple in 2019: surviving iPhone challenges like the 1990s Microsoft
A lot of the "doom-and-gloom" surrounding Apple is nothing more than social media drama deliberately created. Apple will push the boundaries of what we consider as personal computers. John Srouji is doing great work hardware-wise when it comes to Apple Ax chipset. The only thing Apple has to do is keep evolving iOS into a more robust mobile operating system and unlock more features that we know it can handle. I really look forward to a day when I can do all the work I would usually do on my PC right on my iPhone XS Max or iPad. -

Google's next big Android update to support iPhone X-style 'notches'
The funny thing about this is that it sounds like the headphone jack scenario all over again.
When Apple removed the headphone jack there were a lot of criticisms and uproar.
Then Android OEMs started following it.
Even Google, who first criticized the iPhone’s lack of headphone jack in its Google Pixel ads, eventually left out the headphone jack in the Pixel 2. -
