Apple has been gearing up for the launch of its upcoming AR Device, the Vision Pro and it has been leaked quite a few times that the Cupertino-based company is looking forward to working with Chinese suppliers for the parts.
It was previously revealed through several leakers that Apple is considering sourcing the Vision Pro displays from Chinese suppliers such as BOE and SeeYA. BOE already makes displays for other Apple devices whereas SeeYA is a new company that Apple is looking forward to working with. Sony was also a potential supplier but unfortunately latest news from research conducted by TrendForce says the opposite.
According to TrendForce’s latest research, Apple is going to be sourcing Vision Pro displays from SeeYA Technology, which is a Chinese company. According to the report, Apple chose SeeYA primarily due to the low yield of micro-OLED panels from Sony, which made it difficult for Apple to fulfil market requirements.

Apple’s plan to work with a number of suppliers is a good decision. Competition to win the distribution leads to cheaper parts for Apple and increased quality of products. More suppliers also reduce the chances of a low-yield product that could hinder the sale flow of the device Apple is looking forward to selling.
Apple is balancing between taking on Chinese companies and being drawn into the escalating trade war between the United States and China. Both governments have banned the export of essential parts and technologies, some of which are necessary in nearly every electronic gadget.

Supposedly compatible with both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 titles, an AMD -powered new portable PlayStation is now in the early stages of development.
A recent YouTube video from Moore’s Law is Dead claims that the Japanese firm is preparing to launch fresh portable products. With a proprietary AMD APU at its core, this console is now in the High Level Design Phase , which means it hasn’t been given the go-ahead for production and will be at least two years away.
There has been no official word on the specifications of this new PlayStation handheld, but according to Moore’s Law is Dead, it will most likely use 18 CUs to ensure compatibility with all PlayStation 4 games on the PlayStation Store
Moreover, PlayStation 5 games will also work on the system, however, creators would need to apply patches to ensure appropriate performance. Given that the PlayStation 5’s clock speeds are changeable, it’s possible that the new system’s GPU could operate at 1.8 GHz or even slower.
Moore’s Law has dropped hints that a new portable console could hit Japanese shelves as a handheld alternative. While that release might happen as soon as two years from now, there’s always a chance it could take longer if given the green light.
A new PlayStation portable may seem unlikely, but a lot has occurred in the gaming industry since the PlayStation Vita’s release. Given the success of competing systems like the Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck, it would not be unexpected for Sony to return to the market with a system that may outperform the Vita thanks to its compatibility with traditional console titles. Take everything with a grain of salt for the time being; we won’t know if Vita will reintroduce meaning until we have formal confirmation.
