Apple A-series chipmaker TSMC has given an indication of the potential iPhone 12 performance and power efficiency improvements we might see from this year’s flagship phones.

In an interesting proposition, an anonymous Twitter user who leaked many accurate details about the iPhone XS and iPad lineup this morning tweeted a suggestion as to the iPhone 11 naming scheme.

They also stated the exact weight of the XS Max, described the default wallpaper set and even the asymmetric grille hole arrangement seen in the iPhone XS line....

The iPhone 11 Pro camera module has been a source of controversy ever since the first renders were seen. Many complained that this was the ugliest camera bump yet. Some felt the entire square block was unappealing, while others hated the triangular camera arrangement within the square. My own view was somewhat neutral. Regular readers will know that I’m not a fan of camera bumps at all. I’d far rather the phone were slightly thicker to allow the camera to be flush....

Adapting a novel to the big screen isn’t easy; adapting a 1000+ page Stephen King epic is even tougher. King’s novel is absolutely massive, with tons of other subplots and lore that wouldn’t work for a movie’s pacing. Therefore, there’s a lot that needs to be cut out for the final films. Maybe if IT was being adapted as a limited series with a good 8 to 10 hours, they could find ways to include most of the book....
