Apple's iPhone 15 shipped with a bug that left some users with the "Apple logo of death." The issue occurred when they tried to transfer their information directly from an old iPhone. AdvertisementAdvertisementCustomers who snapped up an Apple iPhone 15 have been frustrated by a bug that left some of them with frozen screens. If the phone is already stuck on the Apple logo, users will have to restore the iPhone by connecting it to a Mac or PC via a cable. In a note last week, Wedbush analyst Dan Ives said preorders for the iPhone 15 were up between 10% and 12% year-on-year compared with initial preorders for the iPhone 14.

Google counters that it dominates the market because its search engine is better than the competition – a position that Apple’s Cue supported in his testimony Tuesday. Google also argues that users can, in any event, switch to other search engines with a couple of clicks. And last week, the founder of search engine DuckDuckGo, which has about 2.5% of the search market, testified that his company struggled to compete because of Google's revenue-sharing agreements with Apple and other companies. If he decides Google broke the law, another trial will determine how to rein in Google's market power. The Mountain View, California-based company could be stopped from paying Apple and other companies to make Google the default search engine.

REUTERS/Stephanie Lecocq/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsCompanies Apple Inc FollowBRUSSELS, Sept 26 (Reuters) - EU industry chief Thierry Breton on Tuesday called on Apple (AAPL.O) CEO Tim Cook to open up the iPhone maker's fiercely guarded ecosystem of hardware and software to rivals. "The next job for Apple and other Big Tech, under the DMA (Digital Markets Act) is to open up its gates to competitors," Breton told Reuters. "Be it the electronic wallet, browsers or app stores, consumers using an Apple iPhone should be able to benefit from competitive services by a range of providers," he said. Breton also took aim at Apple's arguments that security and privacy issues are the reasons why it has a closed ecosystem.

REUTERS/Andrew Kelly/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsBEIJING, Sept 13 (Reuters) - China has not issued a ban on the purchase and use of foreign phone brands, the Chinese foreign ministry said on Wednesday, in response to media reports that said some government agencies and firms had told staff to stop using Apple's iPhones at work. "China has not issued laws, regulations or policy documents that prohibit the purchase and use of foreign brand phones such as Apple's," foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning told a regular press briefing when asked about the reports. The Chinese government attaches great importance to information and cyber security and treats both domestic and foreign companies as equals," she added. Mao said China hoped all mobile phone companies would strictly abide its laws and regulations, as well as "strengthen information security management". China has increasingly emphasized using locally-made tech products, as technology has become a major national security issue for Beijing and Washington.

Sept 14 (Reuters) - A look at the day ahead in Asian markets from Jamie McGeever, financial markets columnist. The global policy picture, however, could be a lot clearer on Thursday when the European Central Bank delivers its latest rate decision. The Asian and Pacific economic data calendar has a few top-tier releases lined up for Thursday, including Australian unemployment, Japanese machinery orders, Indian wholesale inflation and Indian trade. Annual wholesale inflation in India is expected to be negative for a fifth straight month but continue moving further away from July's 4% deflation.

"China has not issued any laws, regulations or policy documents prohibiting the purchase and use of mobile phones from foreign brands such as Apple," a Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson said at a regularly scheduled briefing Wednesday in Beijing. The Foreign Ministry specifically denied the existence of any official policy barring foreign phone use but did not address the informal guidance reported by the Journal. Apple shares were down less than 1% in early trading Wednesday, a day after the company announced the new iPhone 15. The response from the Foreign Ministry spokesperson also noted unspecified "security incidents" linked to iPhones.

REUTERS/ Regis Duvignau/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsPARIS, Sept 12 (Reuters) - Apple must stop selling its iPhone 12 model in France due to above-threshold radiation levels, France's junior minister for the digital economy told newspaper Le Parisien in an interview published on Tuesday. France's radiation watchdog ANFR notified Apple of its decision to ban iPhone 12 sales after it had carried out tests which showed the smartphone's Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) was slightly higher than legally allowed, Jean-Noel Barrot told the paper. Barrot said a software update would be sufficient to fix the radiation issues linked to the phone which the U.S. company has been selling since 2020. The French watchdog will now pass on its findings to regulators in other EU member states. In 2020, France widened regulations requiring retailers to display the radiation value of products on packaging beyond cell phones, including tablets and other electronic devices.

Without using the words "artificial intelligence" to describe the emerging technology, Apple showcased a new line of iPhones and a new watch that included improved semiconductor designs that power the new AI features. In contrast, Microsoft (MSFT.O) and Alphabet's (GOOGL.O) Google set ambitious goals for the level of transformation with their AI efforts. The Neural Engine is what Apple calls the building blocks for its chips that accelerate AI functions. The AI components of the watch chip make Siri, Apple's voice assistant, 25% more accurate. The idea is to give people a way to control the Apple Watch when their non-watch hand is busy holding a cup of coffee or walking a dog.

China has discouraged the use of foreign-made electronic devices by government officials for a decade. It has told agencies and state-owned companies to replace American computer servers and other devices with domestic ones. And officials frequently show off to Americans their phones made by Huawei, China’s cellphone giant. Now, some employees of government agencies said they have received directives not to use Apple iPhones for work. Chinese authorities have issued no public pronouncements about broader restrictions on iPhones.

The Triller app, started in 2015, runs a TikTok-like feed, but it has backed away from the battle. Brands generated most of Triller’s $48 million in revenue last year, but recent acquisitions have fueled much of the latest growth. Details are scant on Triller’s user count beyond the 550 million accounts it says it has signed up since inception.

Its debut will be a big deal for an IPO market that's been in the doldrums since 2022, but the company's listing has big implications for SoftBank as well. SoftBank agreed to acquire Arm in 2016 for $32 billion, which at the time was the biggest-ever purchase of a European technology company. The unit also swung to a 9.5 billion yen loss, having made a profit of 29.8 billion yen in the same period a year earlier. SoftBank said its Vision Fund booked an investment gain of 159.8 billion yen, its first gain in five consecutive quarters. In July, the company led a $65 million investment in U.K. insurance technology company Tractable.
