Apple wants everyone to use iPhone instead of Android smartphone: WhatsApp CEO
WhatsApp is one of the popular messaging services that allow you to get in touch with your family and friends. It offers different iconic services such as sharing photos, videos, emojis, chats, voice calls, video calls, and more.
Alongside this, Apple has recently released its new privacy policies which don’t favor Facebook. However, we are well-known for the recent controversy between Apple and Facebook, and both companies have come into open war against each other criticizing one another.
According to Apple’s new privacy label, compared with other messaging services, both Facebook and WhatsApp collect a lot of data. Facebook itself has 65 different labels, including party ads, product personalization, application features, and many other labels, while WhatsApp has 16 labels.
Now, as per the reports, in the recent interview of the WhatsApp CEO, Will Cathcart doesn’t seem happy with the iPhone maker pointing out its monopolistic privacy policies. Will said that Apple does not want people to use Android phones and wants them to completely switch to Apple iPhones.
Will believes that most people use iPhone in the country like the US and the iMessage work fine if everyone has iPhone. He calls it the strategic interest of Apple to make a large number of people use iPhone rather than Android.
Compared with WhatsApp from iMessage, Will stated that we compete with Apple in most regions where iMessage is used in most regions, including the United States. He himself uses an Android phone and has been using iPhone and iPad for a long time.

Talking about the Android phones, Samsung may be users’ first choice looking at its dynamic features. Samsung smartphones are the best one when it comes to the user interface as the company’s One UI is filled with many users friendly features.
For the purpose of Messaging, with the latest version of One UI, users can instantly reply from the notification panel without even opening the application.

AMD could launch Ryzen AI Mobile SoC, potentially entering the smartphone application processor market. Currently, the company is known for designing and developing computer processors and graphics technologies.
SmartphoneMagazine reports that AMD could enter the Mobile SoC market with Ryzen AI. If it happens, the company will rival Apple (A Series), Samsung (Exynos), Qualcomm (Snapdragon), MediaTek (Dimensity) and Google (Tensor).
The report says that AMD is already in talks with integrators to have the forthcoming “Ryzen AI” mobile SoCs used in smartphones. It could be a significant development in the tech industry as AMD currently focuses on PC chips and drivers.
It is rumored that AMD plans to introduce “Ryzen AI” chips, similar to what is found in handheld devices. That said, the company will likely have an implementation like Phoenix, Hawk Point, and Strix Point APUs.
Starting with Exynos 2200, AMD has been integrating RDNA-based Xclipse GPU in Samsung’s flagship chipset. The Exynos 2400 also features Xclipse GPU and we’ve seen the expansion to Galaxy A55’s Exynos 1480 chipset earlier this year.
The US chip firm is allegedly setting its sights on the mobile industry and will allegedly introduce “APU-like” Ryzen AI SoCs. The company is considering mobile market entry to answer Qualcomm and MediaTek as they eye the PC market.
Apple itself designs its mobile SoCs and gets produced through TSMC. Qualcomm and MediaTek chips are widely used in Android devices. Samsung also has its own Exynos processor and Google has its Tensor for Pixel devices.
AMD’s entry into the smartphone market could mark a radical development. The chip’s performance and pricing factors will decide the heat of competition. If such things are planned, AMD may partner with a brand to ship its Ryzen AI Mobile chips.
