TSMC Germany

Samsung Foundry’s rival TSMC establishing a chip production plant in Germany. It is worth mentioning that it will be the first semiconductor production base by the Taiwan-based chip manufacturer in Europe.

TSMC today held a groundbreaking ceremony for a chip fab in Dresden, Germany. This significant development came after TSMC’s investment announcement in Europe last year. The company aims to safeguard its semiconductor supply chain.

Reports say that TSMC established a joint venture with Infineon, Bosch, and NXP to make a solid entry in Europe. Entitled ESMC, the joint venture by TSMC produces wafers for automobiles and industrial use at its Dresden plant.

It is said that the Taiwanese chipmaker will invest 10 billion euros, with the support of an additional 5 billion euros from the German gov. TSMC has recently been diversifying its supply chain by expanding its global production bases.

Intel is reportedly delaying investment in Europe, which would result in growth in TSMC’s presence in the region. TSMC is already leading the global foundry market by controlling nearly 60 percent market share.

Pixel 9’s AI Magic Editor features could be coming to older models through Google Photos. The company seemingly working to optimize two new Magic Editor features called Auto Frame and Reimagine for older Pixel phones.

AndroidAuthority reports that Pixel 9’s AI-powered Auto Frame and Reimagine features could come to Pixel 6, Pixel 7, and Pixel 8 series with Google Photos update. This surprising info was discovered right under the codes and strings of Google Photos APK.

Code and strings related to the Pixel 9’s Reimagine and Auto Frame appearing in the Google Photos app for Pixel 6 to Pixel 8. It’s a clear indication that the US tech giant plans to roll out Pixel 9 features across Tensor-powered models.

Google’s new Pixel 9 introduces cool camera features such as Add Me, Video Boost with Night Sight, and more. The company has a habit of expanding newly added features with select older models that fulfill hardware requirements.

The new Magic Editor’s Auto Frame automatically frames your chosen subject, even if that requires expanding the image using AI. Whereas Reimagine lets you change backgrounds with the power of generative artificial intelligence.

Google Photos could add these new features in a future Feature Drop. The company may also expand the new additions to all Android phones through a Google One subscription, the same way Pixel 8’s Magic Editor rolled out earlier.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 August 2024 update Europe

Samsung has shown the mirror to Apple over the recently launched iPhone 16 as it can’t Flip or Fold. Apple dreams of entering the foldable phone market, but it’s already delayed in its entry and the wait won’t be over for at least two more years.

In the latest ‘different’ ad, Samsung mocked the Apple iPhone 16 through the Galaxy Z Flip 6. A graphical clip showcases a series of iPhones rolling. All are shown flat from the rear side and then comes the Galaxy Z Flip 6 in a half-unfolded state.

It’s all about showing off innovation and the edge of being the foldable market leader. Apple also wishes to launch its foldable display product. However, the company is waiting for years until the segment and products enter the mainstream.

Samsung launched the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Z Fold 6 in July 2024. The company is preparing to introduce the Galaxy S25 series early next year. Meanwhile, a handful of new products such as the Galaxy S24 FE also arriving next year.

The Galaxy Z Flip model is gradually gaining acceptance among consumers. It’s portable design and exceptional capabilities make it a great deal. It also offers a sleek and stylish design apart from flipping functionality, which renders all others outdated.
