iPhone 17 Pro Display Upgrades: Get Ready For Some Big Changes
iPhone 17 Pro series is likely to get this Samsung-like premium upgrade for the display which will make it really useful.
Apple is planning for some exciting changes with the iPhone 17 Pro series this year and no, we are not talking about the new camera layout and more AI features. The company could finally focus on a very important part of the devices which is the display.
And new reports suggest Apple iPhone 17 Pro is likely to offer anti-reflective displays with a scratch resistant layer to keep it protected. It might not sound like a big deal for now, but after seeing its use and purpose on the iPad Pro 2024 model, it seems imperative that at least the iPhone 17 Pro variants get it this year.
iPhone 17 Pro 'Display Upgrade' Coming: What It Offers?
Samsung will get the credit for bringing anti-reflective coating on smartphones with the Galaxy S24 Ultra model last year, its own premium offering. Similarly, we are hoping that Apple adopts the iPad Pro-like panel on the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max which gives it more durability, better readability and the lack of reflection will become valuable once you don't have it.
It has more functional reasons to be offered and we really hope these rumours are true. After all, you already have the ProMotion 120Hz display on the iPhone Pro models, and having this layer will add further sheen to the screen.
Apple could add another camera control button which could sit on the top edge of the iPhones that will give you easy access to the camera. You've already got one button for the cameras on the bottom right near the power button so we're not sure why Apple wants to bring another button for the same function.
Apple is rumoured to be taking the camera bar route with the iPhone 17 Pro series and the leaks have vouched for the change.

Game-changer for parents? Pregnancy robots could make infertility a thing of the past
Agencies Representative AI Image Technology is moving faster than ever, and with each new step, it makes us question what we think is possible. Researchers in China are now working on an amazing new idea: robots that can carry babies. If this works, it could change how couples around the world get fertility treatments. The idea of "pregnancy robots," which are humanoids made to carry human babies in fake wombs, is the newest thing to spark a global debate. This amazing new idea is being worked on in China right now, and it could change everything for couples who are having trouble getting pregnant, according to a report by The New York Post. ALSO READ: iPhone 17 leak: Apple to hike prices $50 on pro models, regular model spared — here's what you will pay Dr. Zhang Qifeng, who started Kaiwa Technology in Guangzhou, came up with the idea. The idea is to put a fully developed artificial womb inside a humanoid robot. People already think that the design of the artificial womb is very advanced. It would get nutrients through a hose that was connected to the robot's abdomen. In theory, a fertilized egg could be put inside, and the fetus would grow just like it would in a normal pregnancy, taking nine to ten months to reach full term, according to a report by The New York Post. Dr. Qifeng told local media that the science behind the artificial womb is ready, but the next step is to combine it with robotics so that the process of pregnancy can happen inside a machine. Next year, the first prototype should be ready. One of the best things about pregnancy robots is that they are cheap. It is expected that hiring a humanoid surrogate will cost about 100,000 yuan ($13,927). In the US, where prices for traditional surrogacy range from $100,000 to $200,000, this is only a small part of the cost. This could be a much easier option for many couples who are having trouble getting pregnant or can't afford to hire a surrogate, according to a report by The New York project has already gotten a lot of attention from people all over the world because it would be the first time that technology goes from helping with pregnancy (like IVF) to actually carrying and giving birth to a baby. If it works, it could change how people around the world treat infertility. There will always be moral and legal questions about new technologies. How would fertilization and moving the embryo work in real life? How would a robot "give birth"? And maybe most importantly, how do we control a machine's role in making people?Dr. Qifeng said that many questions still need to be answered, but talks are already going on. To calm people's nerves, officials in Guangdong Province have held forums and are looking over policy proposals. People are worried about everything from the psychological effects of being born from a robot to how the technology might be misused, according to a report by The New York Post.

When will the first model be shown to the public? The first model is set for next year.

Google agrees $36 million fine for anti-competitive deals with Australia telcos
Google agreed on Monday to pay a A$55 million ($35.8 million) fine in Australia after the consumer watchdog found it had hurt competition by paying the country's two largest telcos to pre-install its search application on Android phones, excluding rival search engines. The fine extends a bumpy period for the Alphabet-owned internet giant in Australia, where last week a court mostly ruled against it in a lawsuit brought by Fortnite maker Epic Games accusing Google and Apple of preventing rival application stores in their operating systems. Google's YouTube was also last month added to an Australian ban on social media platforms admitting users aged under 16, reversing an earlier decision to exempt the video-sharing site. On anti-competitive tie-ups with Australian telcos, the country's consumer watchdog on Monday said Google struck deals with Telstra and Optus , under which the tech giant shared with them advertising revenue generated from Google Search on Android devices between late 2019 and early 2021. Google admitted the arrangement had a substantial impact on competition from rival search engines, and has stopped signing similar deals while also agreeing to the fine, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission ( ACCC ) added. "Today's outcome ... created the potential for millions of Australians to have greater search choice in the future, and for competing search providers to gain meaningful exposure to Australian consumers," ACCC Chair Gina-Cass Gottlieb said. Google and the ACCC have jointly submitted to the Federal Court that Google should pay the A$55 million fine. The court must still decide if the penalty is appropriate, the ACCC said, but the cooperation between the regulator and Google has helped avoid lengthy litigation. A Google spokesperson said the company was pleased to resolve the ACCC's concerns which involved "provisions that haven't been in our commercial agreements for some time". "We are committed to providing Android device makers more flexibility to pre-load browsers and search apps, while preserving the offerings and features that help them innovate, compete with Apple, and keep costs low," the spokesperson added. Google owns Android. A Telstra spokesperson referred Reuters to an earlier statement saying it and Optus, owned by Singapore Telecommunications, had fully cooperated with the ACCC and promised not to sign agreements with Google to pre-install its search product since 2024.
