Apple won't be able to meet demand in Q3

During his last call with investors before stepping down, Apple CEO Tim Cook laid out that the upcoming September quarter (Q3) will have huge customer demand that the supply chain won't be able to meet. Cook stressed that it isn't a case of RAM constraints or lack of parts, but that, put simply, customer demand for iPhones, iPads, and Macs is too great, and supply partners can't keep up.

Samsung's upcoming Galaxy SmartTag3 will have a new shape

Samsung launched the original Galaxy SmartTag in 2021, and the SmartTag2 in 2023. Now it seems like it's almost ready to release the SmartTag3, but this will come with a twist. According to the leaked illustrations you can see below, the next Galaxy SmartTag will have a new, squircle-like shape.
