Shocking! Apple’s iPhone sales might actually be stronger than expected

%name Shocking! Apple’s iPhone sales might actually be stronger than expected by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Over the past few weeks, shares of Apple have been in something of a free fall, plummeting from an all-time high of $231 this past October to about $165 earlier this week. The reason behind the somewhat abrupt decline in value can be traced back to a November report claiming that iPhone XR demand is lower than anticipated and that Apple has slashed component orders. Since then, subsequent reports — often sourced from supply chain rumors — have all echoed the same point, namely that folks aren’t picking up the iPhone XR in droves. While it’s admittedly never a good idea to place too much stock in supply chain rumors, the chorus of reports pointing to lukewarm interest in the iPhone XR became impossible to ignore.

The thing is, we’ve been down this road before. Over the past few years, there have been a number instances where rumors regarding sluggish iPhone sales have turned out to be completely off the mark, if not completely baseless. In light of that, a new report from Bloomberg relays that Apple’s top two manufacturing partners — Foxconn and TMSC — both reported strong revenues for November. Specifically, both companies saw revenue surge by about 5.6% last month. In short, the hysteria surrounding iPhone XR demand may be just that: Hysteria.

Audit of Supermicro finds no evidence of secret spy chips from China

%name Audit of Supermicro finds no evidence of secret spy chips from China by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Here’s one more bit of pushback to add to all of the denials and counters and head-scratching that accompanied the October publication of a bombshell Bloomberg BusinessWeek story about a secret Chinese hacking operation. You may recall it involving the allegation that Chinese agents had secretly planted malicious hardware onto Supermicro servers that were eventually were put into use by companies like Apple and Amazon.

Denials came swiftly from Amazon, Apple and several other corners, and Apple CEO Tim Cook even took the rare step of calling on the publication to retract the story. And now, two months later, Supermicro has released a statement after having conducted an internal audit of its own systems. Yep, you guessed it: The statement amounts to, basically, we have no idea what this story is based on, but we didn’t find any evidence to support it.

The vast majority of smartphones these days have a single screen and two camera modules, including a selfie cam and a rear camera, each containing one or multiple lenses. But smartphone makers from China have come up with a new concept this year: Phones that feature two screens and a single camera module.

The point of this unusual design is to offer users a modern, all-screen design with no notches, camera pop-out mechanisms, or camera holes on the front. Instead, on the back, a smaller, secondary display will be in use only when the rear-facing cameras is needed for selfies or video chatting.

Epic Games pulls its ‘Infinity Blade’ game trilogy from the App Store

%name Epic Games pulls its ‘Infinity Blade’ game trilogy from the App Store by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Eight years ago, back in the early days of the App Store, Epic Games set the world of mobile gaming on fire with an action RPG called Infinity Blade. As the first iOS game to use the Unreal Engine, it looked more like a console game than anything else available on smartphones at the time, and went on to achieve record-breaking sales.

Infinity Blade was followed by two sequels in 2011 and 2013, but Epic hadn’t had much to say about the franchise in recent years. That is, until the studio announced on Monday that all three games were being removed from the App Store. This isn’t the first popular mobile game to be retired, but considering its place in the history of smartphone gaming, it’s somewhat surprising to see it killed off so unceremoniously and without any warning.
