What This Apple Supplier Told Us About the 2019 iPhones

Look for a big wireless boost in the successor to the iPhone XR.

On Sept. 12, Apple launched three new iPhones. At the high-end of its product stack, Apple introduced the iPhone XS — the direct successor to last year’s iPhone X — and the iPhone XS Max, a variant of the iPhone XS with an even bigger screen. For more price-sensitive customers, Apple offered a product called the iPhone XR, which incorporates many of the new technologies found in the iPhone XS/XS Max, but uses cheaper components in some cases to reduce the cost structure of the device.
One way Apple seemingly chose to save money with the iPhone XR relative to the higher-end iPhone XS models is in the cellular subsystem. Apple says that the iPhone XS/XS Max support “gigabit-class LTE with 4×4 MIMO and [licensed assisted access].” The iPhone XR, on the other hand, simply supports “LTE Advanced” — just as Apple’s 2017 flagship smartphones do.
Apple’s choice not to endow the iPhone XR with the same cellular capabilities of the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max have led longtime Apple chip supplier Broadcom to admit that it lost some of the business in this year’s iPhone lineup.
“Nonetheless, from time-to-time, not that often, but time-to-time, the same technology platform used by our customer may expand beyond one generation,” Broadcom CEO Hock Tan explained on the company’s Sept. 6 earnings conference call. “And when this happens, it does create an opportunity for a customer to temporarily use lower performance alternatives in selected SKUs.”
Tan did say, though, that “every indication we have is that the cadence of annual platform upgrades will resume in the upcoming 2019 smartphone generation.”
This seems to tell us, then, that Apple’s planning a wireless technology upgrade for the next iteration of the iPhone XR.

Apple’s straightforward iPhone XR upgrade path

Apple clearly had to do a significant amount of engineering work to get the iPhone XR ready to go for the current product cycle. Relative to its predecessors — iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus — it sports a new casing design and a new display in addition to upgraded internals. The next iteration of the iPhone XR should be a more straightforward proposition — I expect Apple to keep the same basic design but deliver internal specification updates.
One of those updates, if Broadcom’s take on the situation is right, should be a move to a more advanced cellular subsystem.
What isn’t totally clear, though, is whether Apple will continue to differentiate the successors to the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Plus from the iPhone XR through wireless capabilities or if it’ll endow them all with the same capabilities. Indeed, one reason Tan’s comments could indicate the latter is that if Apple were to simply give the next iPhone XR the same cellular capabilities as this year’s iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max, then Apple would, in effect, be reusing one of the platforms that it used in the current product cycle.
I still expect Apple to continue to significantly differentiate the iPhone XS/XS Max successors from the iPhone XR successor, but cellular capabilities might not be one of the ways it does that next year.
Motley Fool Issues Rare “Double Down” Buy Alert
Motley Fool CEO, Tom Gardner, just issued a rare “double down” buy alert on one remarkable California company.
And here’s the real kicker…
Despite this company’s jaw-dropping success over the past few years, most investors have still never even heard of this company’s name!
That’s right, while everyone on CNBC is busy talking about blue-chip stocks like Apple and Facebook, this significantly smaller (yet faster-growing!) company is flying almost completely under the radar.
And Tom is so convinced that he’s right with this new “double down” buy alert…that he’s got $523,111 of The Motley Fool’s money on the line…

Asus ZenBook Pro 15 vs. Dell XPS 15

These 15-inch laptops are both powerhouses, but which should you buy?

Asus is going out on a limb with its new ZenBook Pro 15 UX580, introducing an innovative twist on the old-school touchpad. Called the ScreenPad, this new input device layers a touchscreen IPS LCD over the usual swiping surface, adding in some special functionality to make for a potentially more efficient and productive workflow.
But that’s not all the ZenBook Pro 15 has in its bag of tricks. It also sports the fastest notebook processor around, the very fast Core i9-8950HK that promises unparalleled performance. Is all of this enough to give it the edge over our favorite 15-inch notebook, the Dell XPS 15? Read on to find out.

DESIGN

The ZenBook Pro 15 UX580 looks just like every other modern ZenBook, and that’s not a bad thing. It has the same attractive and iconic concentric circle swirl, the same rose gold diamond-cut chamfered edges, and the same quality build as so many recent ZenBooks. Only an unusually flexible keyboard deck mars what would otherwise be a rock-solid build. The bezels are small enough to give a modern look and feel, and the 0.75 inch thickness and 4.1 pound weight is competitive with the rest of the field. In terms of input, we found the keyboard to offer slightly less travel than some competitors, but with a snappy mechanism that’s comfortable for long typing sessions. And the ScreenPad is buggy out of the gate, but it still promises an innovative new way to control your notebook with a handful of special modes and dedicated apps and utilities.
Dell’s 2018 XPS 15 hasn’t changed much aesthetically over the last couple of years, and that’s not a bad thing — it’s just as conservatively attractive as always. It’s formed from machined aluminum and carbon fiber that create a robust and particularly comfortable laptop to use and carry around from site to site. Dell hasn’t engineered the thinnest notebook around, at 0.70 inches at its thickest point, and it’s not the lightest either at 4.5 pounds with a huge 97 watt-hour battery. Even so, it’s among the most diminutive 15.6-inch notebooks given its InfinityEdge bezels — which unfortunately mean the webcam is wedged below the display for an unflattering up-the-nose view. The keyboard is excellent, with sufficient travel an a precise and responsive mechanism enabling fast and accurate typing, and the Microsoft Precision touchpad is large and comfortable.
We like the ZenBook’s elegant look and feel, but the XPS 15 wins out for being completely solid and sporting a better keyboard. That innovative ScreenPad could sway things in the ZenBook’s favor, though, if Asus can work out the bugs and add some polish.

PERFORMANCE

The ZenBook Pro 15 is built around Intel’s fastest mobile processor, the 8th-generation six-core, 12-thread Core i9-8950HK that runs at 45 watts and can ramp up to some insane speeds. It’s a fast CPU, but it also creates some heat that’s hard to manage. Ultimately, it’s faster than the more common Core i7-8750H, but not by much. Asus chose a competent PCIe solid-state drive (SSD) for the ZenBook Pro, which is neither the fastest nore the slowest we’ve tested, and that’s fed by some fast DDR4 memory. Finally, the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is a solid entry-level gaming CPU, and it allows the ZenBook to support some decent — albeit somewhat inconsistent — gaming performance.
The Dell XPS 15 uses the aforementioned Core i7-8750H processor, an 8th-generation 45 watt part that’s also powered by six cores and 12 threads. The Dell also enjoys a speedy PCIe SSD and high-speed RAM, which is paired with an Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti Max Q that punches slightly above its weight class when running some of today’s popular titles at 1080p and medium graphical details. The XPS 15 is plenty fast — almost as fast as the ZenBook Pro 15, in fact — but it also runs cooler and more quietly.
And then there are the displays. On paper, the ZenBook Pro 15 and XPS 15 should be equal. Both enjoy 4K UHD panels with wide color gamuts, and they both promise good accuracy and strong contrast. But Dell delivers whereas Asus kind of dropped the ball, with the former offering a more accurate display with significantly higher contrast and brightness. Dell also offers two options, Full HD and 4K panels aimed at being bright and colorful. Both the ZenBook and the XPS 15 offer great displays for productivity work, but the Dell is much better for professionals that care about color accuracy.
The XPS 15 wins out by being almost as fast as the ZenBok Pro 15 but doing so more quietly and without burning up. And its display is better, too.

PORTABILITY

Given all that performance that’s packed inside a chassis that’s not the thinnest around, we expected Asus to squeeze in some serious battery capacity. Unfortunately, the company only managed to equip the ZenBook Pro 15 with 71 watt-hours, which isn’t a ton of juice for such a demanding CPU and high-resolution display.
For its part, Dell equipped the XPS 15 with a massive 97 watt-hours worth of battery capacity, helping to justify its higher weight. And Dell’s investment in batteries paid off. In our suite of tests, the XPS 15 outlasted the ZenBook Pro 15 by a wide margin. We tested the the Full HD version of the XPS 15, and it lasted for twice as long on our most intensive Basemark web benchmark test and almost three times as long when browsing the web and watching video. We suspect that the 4K version of the XPS 15 would last for “only” twice as long.
Both of these notebooks are large and solid 15.6-inch notebooks and so take up some space in a backpack. But the XPS 15 will last for a full working day and maybe even longer, whereas the ZenBook Pro 15 will leave you wanting. The Dell wins this round.

CONCLUSION

The ZenBook Pro 15 costs $2,300 for the Core i9-8950HQ, 16GB of RAM, 512GB SSD, 4K display, and the ScreenPad. You can also spend $1,800 for a Core i7-8750H and a normal touchpad. That makes it a premium notebook but still less expensive than the XPS 15, which comes in at $2,900 for the Core i9, 32GB of RAM, and a 2TB SSD. But you can also opt for a much less powerful configuration with Core i5 and 56 watt0hour battery for $1,000, giving the Dell a lower price of entry.
The ZenBook Pro 15 brings some innovation with its ScreenPad and some power with its Core i9. But the XPS 15 is almost as fast and its considerably more refined — and thus it’s the notebook we’d rather carry around with us.

Galaxy Note 9 battery overheats, smokes out, now subject of lawsuit

A New York woman has launched a lawsuit against Samsung after her Galaxy Note 9 “became extremely hot” and began emitting thick smoke. The issue, which the company says is the only one reported, has triggered memories of the battery explosions in dozens of Galaxy Note 7 devices.The New York Post reports Diane Chung was riding the elevator up to her apartment in Bayside, Queens, when her phone became too warm to use. After putting it in her bag, “she heard a whistling and screeching sound, and she noticed thick smoke,” court papers claim. She had burned her fingers trying to retrieve the phone and it, along with the other contents of her bag, poured onto the floor.

Alone in the elevator, Chung became “extremely panicked” and began pressing buttons before the car stopped at the lobby. She kicked the device out of the cabin and a passerby helped douse the device with water.

The plaintiff claims that Samsung should have known that the Note 9 was “defective” and seeks damages and a sales injunction on the phone.

The 4,000mAh cell on the Galaxy Note 9 is the largest to be featured on the Note series of devices. It follows the 3,300mAh battery on the Note 8, which has had few reports of thermal overrun malfunctions, and the 3,500mAh unit on the Note 7, of which more than 2.5 million devices have been recalled. Independent analysis points to a design flaw as the cause while the chaebol’s internal investigation found poor battery manufacturing as the primary culprit.

Samsung has since heavily promoted that it has a multi-stage battery check process for all of its devices. A spokesperson told the Post that the company has “not received any reports of similar incidents involving a Galaxy Note9 device and we are investigating the matter.”

Every day use Tips to extend your ASUS B41N1526 laptop’s battery life

1.Keep the ASUS B41N1526 battery contacts clean: Clean your battery’s metal contacts every couple of months with a cloth moistened with rubbing alcohol. This keeps the transfer of power from your battery more efficient.
2.Do not expose the B41N1526 battery to extreme temperatures. Do not leave your battery outside in the cold or in your car in the summer. Cold batteries can’t create very much power and hot batteries will discharge very quickly.
3.Don’t pack your laptop away in a backpack or other enclosed space when the ASUS B41N1526 battery is still warm, trapping the heat. A battery that is frequently hot to the touch will lose life a lot faster than a battery that isn’t constantly being stressed. Worst of all: if your laptop crashes or refuses to shut off properly, the battery can get extremely hot when packed away in your bag.
4.Keep vents clear – don’t put your asus laptop on a fluffy pillow or a cushioned service that will cover vents and trap heat.
5.Avoid allowing your device to discharge completely. Constantly recharging a lithium-ion battery does not shorten the battery life more than normal usage would. Avoid letting it sit on empty for too long; instead, keep it charged-up if you can.
6.Chargeable batteries will wear down quickly, when they are only charged for a short period of time. When the laptop is not in use, such as at bedtime, plug it into an outlet and leave it to charge until the battery power is full.
7.Defrag regularly – The faster your hard drive does its work – less demand you are going to put on the hard drive and your ASUS B41N1526 battery. Make your hard drive as efficient as possible by defragging it regularly.

What Will Apple Announce At Its September 12 Event? My Predictions On The New iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max

The expectations around Apple’s upcoming September 12th event are curious. On one side of the coin Apple is set to double down on the technology packed into last year’s iPhone X handset, with an update to the base mode, a phablet-sized version to increase audience appeal, and a lower-priced model to replace the four year old iPhone 6 design. The other side looks at Apple’s approach of incrementally updating the line up as a way to keep the faithful engaged as it struggles to match up with the rush of innovation seen in Android while taking no risks that may disrupt the sales of the Golden Goose.
The faithful are going to get very excited with the new handsets. Every increased specification, every larger screen, every extra gigabyte of storage will see a cheer that tries to raise the roof of the Steve Jobs Center – as if any of the news will be genuine new to those paying attention.
But annual iPhone sales continue to stay locked into the 200 to 210 million handsets per year window. Apple is not reaching out to new markets with significant success. Can this year change that script? Even if that is possible, would Tim Cook gamble the guaranteed handset sales in his hand for the potential of ‘super cycle’ of iPhones?
Last year’s choice of ‘iPhone X’ as the title of the tenth-anniversary smartphone harkened back to successful products such as OS-X, but also led many to question what would happen with the next handset family. Would it be iPhone 11? iPhone Xi? iPhone X2?
The answer appears to be the old trick of adding an ’S’ to the handset. Tis started with the iPhone 5S, denoting updated internals, but not updating the design. Following that the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6S continued the tradition. By retaining the design the iPhone 7 broke that chain, and the iPhone 8 buried the links.
Tim Cook has taken the backwards step, and the iPhone X follow-up will be the iPhone XS – reinforcing the idea of a small update to keep the chip specifications in line with the competition. Curiously the phablet sized version will not be the iPhone XS Plus, but is expected to be the iPhone X Max. While the West gets the ‘plus’ suffix to mean phablet, using ‘max’ is a new trick in the US and Europe, but is a common conceit in BRIC countries. Watch for this naming convention to carry over to marketing strategies.
Design wise don’t expect too much to change from last year’s iPhone X to this year’s iPhone XS. No doubt there’ll be talk of a thinner phone, lighter materials, and possibly ‘more space for the battery’ but in terms of new technology the iPhone XS looks to be fresh out of ideas. While the rest of the industry works on improved fingerprint recognition with easier access (through the display), Apple will continue to rely solely on FaceID.
Last year’s iPhone X did have one new piece of technology that is still to be used. While wireless charging was added to the X (and to the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus) Apple’s full power wireless charging solution – AirPower – is still not available to the public. Thankfully the handsets are Qi compatible but Apple’s proud new world of wireless technology has been vaporware for 12 months. Here’s hoping this launch will see practical implementations available to consumers.
Then there’s the iPhone XS Max. Effectively a larger screen than the iPhone XS, Apple may be adding a few hardware tweaks to the ‘Max’ model to help it stand out, but don’t expect much more than a larger screen and more space for the battery (that will be needed to power the larger screen). One addition may be in the telecoms circuitry. It’s likely that Apple’s first dual-SIM iPhone will be the iPhone XS Max, but availability could be limited to BRIC territories… which helps explain the naming switch from Plus to Max.
The big news of course will the ‘cheapest iPhone X model ever’ as Apple seeks to position its third tier model as a ‘budget’ iPhone X. The 6.1 inch screened model will echo the iPhone XS, but with a cheaper LCD screen. Compared to the iPhone XS and XS Max it will be cheaper, and arguably it will be “better value” than the iPhone 8 that it replaces.
But it is not a successor to the iPhone SE (although don’t discount a specs bump so Apple can retain some presence in the $400 price range), the presumptively named iPhone XR is a successor to the iPhone 8. It biases Apple’s portfolio further towards the high end, driving up average revenue per customer and increasing Apple’s turnover. When your sales are effectively static year on year, making more money per customer is vital to Apple’s bottom line. It can’t continue forever, but maybe Tim Cook will get another year before everyone realises he’s following Ballmer’s playbook.
With minimal updates to the technology in the iPhone line-up, expect Tim Cook and his team to bulk out the presentation with a trip round Apple’s (financially vital) cloud services and growing peripheral business.
The biggest update should be to the Apple Watch. The fourth version of the smartwatch is arguably Apple’s biggest success story of the last few years and one of the few areas that Tim Cook can legitimately claim as his own. The wearable is not standalone and requires connection to an iOS device (helping keep that average revenue per user high) and has evolved into a more fitness focused product and remote control.
Expect the focus to be placed on the connection to Apple Health and the cloud based analysis on the data that can be performed on your own data. Yes there’s a new Podcasts app and some media controls as well, but expect these to stay closely tied to the iOS device paired to the Apple Watch.
The iPad Pro range is expecting an update for the Christmas quarter. It may or may not get a reveal here, and I think its appearance (and that of any macOS based product) will come down to the amount of stage time that the iPhone is going to receive. If Apple is going to explain every little detail of the updated handsets (hoping that the press don’t compare it to the standard load out on a mid- to high-end Android smartphone), then the iPad Pro will be relegated to a smaller October event or a quiet roll out on the Apple website during Q4.
As for the outside bets, there continues to be a lot of chatter around a new MacBook design to match the thinner fashionable designs employed by other manufacturers. That could be a reworked MacBook, or the resuscitation of the MacBook Air brand.
Also on the ‘take a big punt’ docket is an update to the Mac Mini designed for the high demands of graphical work. It would be nice, it would be welcomed, and a genuine update to a beloved classic. Done properly it could be the most surprising “One More Thing…” in the last decade.
I’m not holding my breath for that surprise. Or any other surprise. Tim Cook’s Apple has played it safe and taken baby steps to match the competition for the last few years. It’s not going to think different any time soon.
