FLIGHTS OF FRUGALITY A good gift is one someone will actually use. When it comes to travel, that means choosing things that reduce stress—and up the enjoyment. If that’s not in your budget, choosing a gift that they’ll find useful and that you can afford can be tricky. Bells and whistles: A zippable laundry compartment ensures dirty socks never defile dry-cleaned blouses. The option to use either short or long handles allows for, respectively, close-to-chest security or easy pairing with a rolling suitcase.

Your Apple Watch can help you calculate the tip and split a check at a restaurant with just a few taps. The feature is built right into the calculator app, and all you need to do is enter the amount of the check, the percentage you want to tip and the number of people with whom you'd like to split the bill. It's just a small example of how Apple works to make the Apple Watch ingrained into people's daily routines. Apple's wearable revenue, which includes the watch and AirPods, was its third-highest selling category behind the iPhone and Services in its most recent earnings, generating $9.32 billion in sales. Give this a try the next time you're at a restaurant and don't want to do the mental math of splitting between a big group.

Meta is making a comeback to China 14 years after Facebook was blocked from being accessed there. The firm has struck a deal with Tencent to sell VR gear in 2024, The Wall Street Journal reported. Deals with Chinese firms are among the few ways big US tech companies can get a foothold there. China has largely banned US tech firms , bar Apple, from doing business there for several years. Meta still extracts cash out of China through Facebook and Instagram ads it sells to Chinese companies.

HANOI, Nov 10 (Reuters) - Apple (AAPL.O) supplier Luxshare Precision Industry Co (002475.SZ) has been awarded a license to invest an additional $330 million in its plant in Vietnam's northern province of Bac Giang, raising the total investment to $504 million, provincial authorities said. The facility is expected to be completed in 12 to 24 months, it added. China-based Luxshare, one of Apple's main AirPods makers, started investing in Vietnam since 2019. Its additional investment in the country comes as other manufacturers seek to further diversify production away from China. Earlier this year, another Apple supplier, Foxconn, set up a new factory in central Vietnam and raised its investment in the country by $250 million to make electric vehicles and telecom parts.

Apple shares, which have risen 37% so far this year, dropped 3.4% after-hours, following the forecast. Maestri said Apple expects to have higher iPhone sales for the fiscal first quarter, even though this year's holiday quarter has one fewer week of sales than the year-ago. Cook said the company's new high-end handset models - the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max devices - are facing supply constraints. Apple's sales in China fell to $15.08 billion from $15.47 billion in the fourth quarter a year ago. Cook said that after accounting for foreign-exchange rates, Apple's business in China grew year-over-year, driven by iPhone sales and services revenue.

At a time when the tech industry’s biggest companies are rebounding from a post-pandemic dip, Apple is suffering through its most prolonged sales slump in more than a decade. Apple’s most important business, the iPhone, rallied last month behind the release of four new devices, which boosted sales 3 percent, to $43.81 billion, from last year. And the company’s sales for software and services, such as Apple Music and cloud storage, jumped 16 percent, to $22.31 billion. But sales sank for most of the company’s other businesses, including the Mac, iPad, and the Apple Watch and AirPods. Total product sales dropped by 5 percent, to $67.18 billion.

Apple previously had similar concerns around making iMessage for Android, with an exec saying it would hurt Apple more than help.

Apple plans to release new versions of several AirPods models next year, according to a report from Bloomberg. Apple's wireless headphones business has become a moneymaker for the company and requires regular updates to keep the product fresh and demand high. Since they were first announced in 2016, Apple's wireless white buds have become ubiquitous on big-city mass transit and inside offices and schools around the country. Apple's AirPods Pro, which cost $249, got minor updates last year, and this fall added a model with a USB-C port. Apple reports AirPods sales under its Wearables, Home and Accessories product line, which reported $41 billion in revenue in Apple's fiscal 2022.
