Apple makes it a point with every product announcement to stress security and privacy features. That exact thing happened just a few weeks ago at Apple’s annual developer event, where the company unveiled several new privacy-centric features that other companies might not be able to replicate (because, you know, Android). But iPhone encryption is only as good as your password. If you don’t use one, or if your password can be easily guessed, anyone with physical access to your phone can get into it. Then there are companies out there that specialize in unlocking mobile devices regardless of how strong the password is, companies that have been working with law enforcement agencies to crack devices during investigations. One of them is Israeli firm Cellebrite, which claims that it can now break into any iPhone or iPad running on Apple’s latest iOS release, as well as high-end Android phones.

Leaks concerning this fall’s upcoming iPhone models continue to trickle out at a steady pace, but some analysts are already looking ahead to 2020. In a research note shared with AnTuTu (via MacRumors), TF International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo revealed new details about the prospective 2020 smartphone lineup from Apple.

According to Kuo, Apple will once again release three iPhone models in 2020, but will make significant changes to the designs of the high-end models. The successors to the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Max will supposedly feature 5.4-inch and 6.7-inch displays, respectively, and will both support 5G. The iPhone 11R follow-up will retain a 6.1-inch display, but Kuo believes that all three models will have OLED screens in 2020.

Huawei is at the center of the United States’ trade war with China right now, although US officials have cited security concerns when going forward with restrictions (although that might be a huge lie). As things stand right now, US companies can’t purchase Huawei telecom equipment, and Huawei isn’t allowed to use any technology made by US firms. We saw a preview of the latter last year when ZTE nearly had to shut down operations because of a similar measure. Huawei is still fighting the import ban and will not close up shop, but the company admitted that the ban will indeed hurt when it comes to smartphone sales and profit.

When Apple’s current-generation iPad tablets went on sale at deep discounts for Black Friday last year, people flipped out. It makes sense of course, since truly deep discounts on Apple products are so rare. Well, get ready to flip out even more because Amazon somehow just gave the Apple iPad an even deeper discount! The 128GB model that was $80 off on Black Friday is now a whopping $101 off, slashing the price all the way down to just $328. That’s an all-time low, and we doubt we’ll ever see a better bargain on an iPad. If you don’t need that much storage, you can also still get the 32GB model for just $249, which is also an all-time low.

It’s still far too early to say for certain whether the Galaxy S10e, Galaxy S10, and Galaxy S10+ have truly been a success for Samsung. The second quarter of 2019 will be the first full quarter of sales for the company’s new flagship phones series, so we should find out sometime next month whether the Galaxy S10 series gave Samsung’s mobile division the boost it so sorely needed after last year’s Galaxy S9 series was a flop. What we can say for certain, however, is that the Galaxy S10 series is a massive step in the right direction for Samsung. While last year’s Galaxy S and Galaxy Note flagship phones were uninspired and boring, this year’s Galaxy S10 phones finally feature the elegant redesign and all-screen display that Samsung fans have been craving.

Thankfully, there’s more good news on the way for Samsung fans, and it’s much-needed considering the current Galaxy Fold disaster (though we totally warned you more than a year before it was announced that the Galaxy Fold would end up being a piece of junk). It turns out that the upcoming new Galaxy Note 10 is getting the same type of massive redesign that the Galaxy S10 got earlier this year, and now a new series of leaks may confirm Samsung’s new design… or should we say, “designs.”
