Singapore gets Apple Maps' Detailed City Experience with custom 3D landmarks and new features

iPhone and iPad users in Singapore will now be able to get an upgraded Apple Maps experience, thanks to the new Detailed City Experience update that was rolled out on Thursday (Aug 7). Singapore is also the first city and country in Asia to receive the update. The new Apple Maps experience will let you zoom in to check out a highly detailed Singapore map that features custom designed 3D landmarks that will be familiar to locals and really helpful for tourists, such as the Fullerton Hotel, Lau Pa Sat, the Merlion, as well as Apple's floating Marina Bay Sands store. These custom models will also feature special dark modes that light up when the display on the phone switches to Dark Mode. Other improvements include detailed roads that will not only show highways and bypasses, but also lane markings with arrows, bus lanes and even zebra crossings. There are also a lot more trees in the new Apple Maps experience which help make the map feel more realistic. Also available in the update are guides to locations, which feature curated content that you can explore if you're planning to look up new eateries or dating hotspots. For drivers, Apple Maps will now have a 'windshield view' that gives you a road level view so you can easily know which exit to take from the highway, while pedestrians can now enjoy a new immersive AR experience that will guide them to where they need to go easily. To access the new features, swipe up with two fingers on the screen to turn the 2D Apple Maps into 3D. From there you can pan and scroll around to explore the new custom models of Singapore's landmarks and explore the new look. Apple Maps is not the only map app to offer a detailed experience. Google Maps also has something similar. For example, San Francisco and Tokyo in Google Maps offer street level information with traffic lights, crosswalks and 3D models.

Shares in South Korean chipmaker SK Hynix tumble on US tariffs

SEOUL :Shares in South Korean chipmaker SK Hynix fell 3.1 per cent in early Thursday trade, after President Donald Trump said the U.S. will impose a tariff of about 100 per cent on chips. SK Hynix supplies Nvidia with chips called high-bandwidth memory used in artificial intelligence chipsets. Trump said on Wednesday the United States will impose a tariff of about 100 per cent on semiconductors imported from countries not producing in the U.S. or planning to do so. But it would not apply to companies that had made a commitment to manufacture in the U.S. or were in the process of doing so. South Korea's trade envoy said on Thursday that SK Hynix and rival Samsung Electronics would not be subject to a 100 per cent U.S. tariff on chips.
