iPhone 17 Pro Max camera is getting this new feature to beat Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra
iPhone 17 Pro Max telephoto lens
A tipster who goes by the handle Instant Digital shared a post on Instagram, revealing that the iPhone 17 Pro Max could have the best telephoto cameras. However, the tipster did not reveal how the smartphone will flaunt its telephoto capabilities, but hinted towards an exclusivity that we have all been hearing for a couple of weeks.
As per previous reports, the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max are expected to feature a 48MP telephoto camera, an upgrade from last year's 12MP camera. However, Apple supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo speculated that the 48MP telephoto lens could be exclusive to the Pro Max model.
In addition to the upgrade, this particular lens is also expected to offer up to 8x optical zoom with multiple focal lengths. It is also expected to be a moving telephoto lens, which may require greater internal space; hence, we may also see a bigger camera bump on the iPhone 17 Pro Max model. While the rumours sound promising, it is based on a leak, and the tipster does not have a perfect track record of revealing accurate specs ahead of launch. Therefore, take the information with a pinch of salt and wait until launch to confirm.
iPhone 17 Pro Max camera upgrades
The iPhone 17 Pro Max is expected to be the first iPhone model with three 48MP cameras. This means it could include a 48MP main camera, a 48MP ultrawide with mechanical aperture, and a 48MP telephoto lens. The smartphone is also tipped to capture 8K video, an upgrade from 4K video recording. It is also leaked that the iPhone 17 Pro Max may include a dual video recording feature that will use both front and rear cameras for recording.

Microsoft scales back Chinese access to cyber early warning system
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Microsoft said on Wednesday it has scaled back some Chinese companies' access to its early warning system for cybersecurity vulnerabilities following speculation that Beijing was involved in a hacking campaign against the company's widely used SharePoint servers. The new restrictions come in the wake of last month's sweeping hacking attempts against Microsoft SharePoint servers, at least some of which Microsoft and others have blamed on Beijing. That raised suspicions among several cybersecurity experts that there was a leak in the Microsoft Active Protections Program (MAPP), which Microsoft uses to help security vendors worldwide, including in China, to learn about cyber threats before the general public so they can better defend against hackers. Beijing has denied involvement in any SharePoint hacking. Microsoft notified members of the MAPP program of the SharePoint vulnerabilities on June 24, July 3 and July 7, Reuters has previously reported. Because Microsoft said it first observed exploitation attempts on July 7, the timing led some experts to allege that the likeliest scenario for the sudden explosion in hacking attempts was because a rogue member of the MAPP program misused the information. In a statement, Microsoft said several Chinese firms would no longer receive "proof of concept code," which mimics the operation of genuine malicious software. Proof of concept code can help cybersecurity professionals seeking to harden their systems in a hurry, but it can also be repurposed by hackers to get a jump start on the defenders. Microsoft said it was aware that the information it provided its partners could be exploited, "which is why we take steps – both known and confidential – to prevent misuse. We continuously review participants and suspend or remove them if we find they violated their contract with us which includes a prohibition on participating in offensive attacks." Microsoft declined to disclose the status of its investigation of the hacking or go into specifics about which companies had been restricted.

Xiaomi to take on Tesla & BYD in Europe with EV foray in 2027
Xiaomi intends to sell its first electric vehicle in Europe by 2027, declaring plans to take on Tesla and BYD globally after gaining traction with its year-old Chinese EV business. President Lu Weibing shed more light on the company's expansion plans after reporting a 31% rise in quarterly revenue, riding the successful launch of its second electric vehicle over the summer. That helped counter slowing demand for smartphones. Xiaomi has previously described ambitions to go global, though it's never specified a target market. Europe is a common destination for Chinese carmakers like BYD seeking to tap a more lucrative arena, while governments across the continent are wooing Chinese EV and battery firms in part to mitigate impact from US tariffs. Strong demand for the YU7 sport utility vehicle, which co-founder Lei Jun released at the end of June, is propelling Xiaomi's $10 billion gamble on a fast-growing but crowded EV arena. The company aims to become one of the world's top five carmakers, despite a production crunch that's testing its ability to scale up. Wait times for the SUV have stretched to more than a year. Revenue climbed to ¥116 billion ($16.2 billion) in the June quarter, just edging past the average analyst estimate. It delivered 81,302 cars, taking the total to more than 157,000 in the first half-on track to surpass 2024's haul. But smartphones-its original and largest business-slid 2.1 per cent and missed the average projection by about 5 per cent.
