Approximately two years later than originally planned Apple will again have to postpone its plans to replace Qualcomm modems in the iPhone with its own. [caption id="attachment_82851" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Apple[/caption] The Cupertino giant is reportedly still facing technical difficulties in developing its own 5G modem. The company has already postponed the transition to its modem, but now it is expected that they will be postponed again until early 2026. Apple has not yet managed to get rid of its dependence on Qualcomm. As previously reported, the main problems with Apple's design are overheating and lack of performance. At the same time, which is logical, Apple needs not only to replace the Qualcomm modem with its own, but to replace it in such a way that its own modem was at least not much worse, but rather superior to the competitor’s product. Qualcomm is also not standing still, continuing to develop new generations. Initially, Apple was going to release the first iPhone with its modem in 2024. Now, as we see, the deadlines have been shifted by about two years, and it is far from a fact that Apple will succeed by the beginning of 2026.

Buyers will sign up to try out the new product before purchasing. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman has revealed new details about the Apple Vision Pro headset. It is expected to appear “early next year”, but it is unlikely to allow Apple to significantly increase revenue. CEO Tim Cook laid out his approach to selling a device that combines virtual and augmented reality: “There hasn't been a product like the Vision Pro on the market before. And that's why we intentionally sell it only in our stores. "We will be offering in-store demos and it will be very different from the typical 'grab and go' buying process." Apple has come up with a new approach to selling Vision Pro [caption id="attachment_79406" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Vision Pro[/caption] While he didn't go into detail, Mark Gurman previously reported that Apple plans to require buyers to make an appointment to test the Vision Pro before purchasing. Vision Pro flagship stores will also have dedicated shopping areas. International distribution of the new product will be moderate. Vision Pro will launch in the US only, before heading to the UK and Canada at the end of 2024. We are waiting for new details to appear.

It's unclear what Apple ultimately decided We recently learned that Apple could buy Bing and was in talks with Microsoft about this back in 2020. It turned out that Apple was also looking at the DuckDuckGo search service. [caption id="attachment_64436" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Apple's Safari browser[/caption] True, for some reason Apple was not considering the possibility of buying DuckDuckGo, but only the possibility of using this search service in the Safari browser by default. But not always, but only in private mode. Apple's Safari browser could use the DuckDuckGo search service by default. The relevant data surfaced on the Internet as part of the consideration of a federal antitrust lawsuit against Google. Apple and Google asked the judge to keep their testimony confidential, but the judge decided it would be made public except for trade secrets. Thus, more details about this Apple initiative will appear in the near future, while now it is not even clear when exactly the company considered such a move and what it ultimately decided.
