New Qualcomm Chip Could Make Your Next Windows Laptop Cheaper Than A MacBook Neo

Hardware prices are increasing due to high demand for RAM and components driven by artificial intelligence growth, affecting sectors like gaming and smartphones. The Steam Deck has already seen a price rise. Qualcomm has launched the Snapdragon C platform, which may allow Windows ARM laptops to be priced as low as 9, potentially making them affordable alternatives to the MacBook Neo. Acer, HP, and Lenovo are among the first manufacturers to use the Snapdragon C, with the Acer Aspire Go 15 featuring this chip. The Snapdragon C utilizes Qualcomm's Kryo CPU cores, and while specific pricing and performance details are not yet available, the Acer Aspire Go 15 is expected to have a 512 GB storage drive, 8 GB of RAM, and a 1920 x 1080 display.

Waze update ends support for older Android phones

Waze's latest beta version, 5.9.90 and beyond, will require Android 10 as the minimum operating system, leaving users with Android 8 or 9 unable to access new features and updates. Users of older smartphones or tablets and aftermarket in-car infotainment systems operating on Android 8 or 9 will be affected. While Waze can still be used on older versions, users will not receive new features or updates, and the app's reliability may decline over time. Google Maps remains a viable alternative for those unable to upgrade. Users are advised to check their Android version, update their devices if possible, consider budget upgrades, and keep Google Maps as a backup.
