Huawei delays production of its next AI accelerator as Nvidia plans a way to enter China
Because of the sanctions placed against the company by the U.S., Huawei has to be content with having its AI accelerators dominate in China rather than compete in America. The U.S. government might have handed this business to Huawei on a silver platter since it would prefer that global leader Nvidia, whose GPUs are used as AI accelerators, not sell its new H20 chips in China. But Nvidia has come up with a way to take on Huawei in China. This month, Nvidia will start production of the B40 AI accelerator. The B40 is made specifically for the Chinese market. Using Nvidia's latest Blackwell architecture, it is designed to perform at a level that will allow the component to be exported to China under U.S. export rules. With AI sizzling hot, high-profile customers in China have created a new rule for AI chip vendors that says, "Sell only what you already have in stock; if you fail to deliver, you're in trouble." Huawei was planning on having its new AI accelerator, the Ascend 910C, built this month. However, a tweet from leaker @Jukanlosreve says that mass production of the chip has been pushed back to the end of the year due to technical reasons. Huawei has had supply chain problems and the tweet notes that Huawei's domestic rivals have no inventory available to sell or they are still in the middle of developing a competing chip. When production does start at the end of this year, SMIC will build the Ascend 910C for Huawei on its second-generation 7nm process node known as N+2. TSMC, without having to deal with U.S. sanctions like SMIC does, builds Nvidia's H20 GPU chip using its 4nm 4N process node. As a result, the Ascend 910C could be slower and less energy efficient than Nvidia's H20. Production of the Huawei Ascend 910C AI accelerator is delayed until the end of 2025. | Image credit-X AI accelerators and GPUs employed as such use parallel processing which can perform the same calculations simultaneously on many different "pieces" of data. The ability to use parallel processing explains why GPUs, like Nvidia's GPU chips, are used as AI accelerators rather than CPUs. The latter handles its workloads sequentially which makes it less qualified for AI use.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Fold 7 coming next month
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Z Fold 7 will be unveiled next month in July at a Galaxy Unpacked event in New York City. Samsung will hold the event during early to mid-July, according to a report from Korean media. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 is a hotly anticipated phone, as all leaks point to a larger, slimmer, and overall better device than the Galaxy Z Fold 6. One industry insider even claims that the Fold 7 will bring some 'industry-first technologies' as Samsung has apparently gotten 'serious' about its foldables. The report from Korea also mentions that the domestic variant of the Flip 7 will be powered by the Exynos 2500 chipset that Samsung has been working on for so long. This chipset was originally intended to debut in the Samsung Galaxy S25 lineup, but was reportedly delayed due to foundry troubles. According to the report, it seems like other regions will get a Flip 7 powered by another chip. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 in particular is exciting for tech enthusiasts because it's all but confirmed that it will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset worldwide. All Galaxy S25 phones are powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor. | Video credit — Samsung Other reports have mentioned that the Flip 7 and Fold 7 will also see a surprise new counterpart this year: the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE. This is a phone that has been rumored to be under development for a long time and, if real, will offer consumers a cheaper barrier of entry into the world of foldable smartphones. Samsung is also said to be working on a tri-foldable smartphone, also slated for release later this year. The company will conduct a very limited release for this device, and only in a select few regions. Rumors of a foldable iPhone by Apple are also more numerous than ever before, with most claiming that the mythical phone will come out next year. Samsung recently teased the Fold 7, promising an Ultra experience. Reports about the battery and charging speeds on the Fold 7 have been disappointing, so I'm really hoping that there's some truth to that 'industry-first technologies' claim.

This upcoming Apple promo could be your best chance to save before the fall semester
Apple is preparing to launch its annual back-to-school promotion in the United States, with this year's deal set to go live on June 17. As with previous years, the company will offer gift cards alongside its existing education discounts on select Mac and iPad purchases. The timing lines up with Apple's usual summer playbook. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, this year's campaign will follow the same structure seen in 2022, 2023, and 2024. Buyers eligible for Apple's education pricing — including students, parents, faculty, and staff — will receive a gift card when purchasing qualifying products. The exact value of the gift cards has yet to be officially confirmed, but in past years, Apple has offered between $100 and $150 with MacBook models and around $50 to $100 with iPads. Eligible devices typically include the MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iMac, iPad Air, and iPad Pro, though some exclusions may promotion will be layered on top of Apple's standard education store pricing, which already reduces the cost of eligible products by a small margin. For example, a base-model MacBook Air may be priced about $100 lower through the education store compared to the regular retail price. Together with the gift card, this can bring meaningful savings — especially for students preparing for the upcoming academic year. M4 iPad Pro. | Image credit — PhoneArena Apple's back-to-school program is also a strategic push to drive hardware sales during the typically slower summer season. The company often refreshes its Mac and iPad lineups earlier in the year to ensure newer models are available during the promo window. While no major new hardware is expected to drop in June, Apple has already updated its iPad Pro and iPad Air lines in the will be able to access the deal through Apple's online education storefront or by visiting Apple Store locations in the US. Proof of eligibility is usually required, and Apple uses a third-party verification service to confirm student or educator status. The offer is expected to run through early September, giving shoppers several weeks to take advantage of the deal ahead of the fall semester. We will be sure to post any updates once the deals go live, but let us know in the comments below you already have something in mind you'd like to purchase from Apple taking advantage of the back to school promotion.
