ββπ Power of Compound Growth
The entire Sun render farm for Toy Story (1995) had (v roughly) 1bn CPU transistors.
#Appleβs A8 SoC (iPhone 6): 2bn.
That is, on a basic measure, a 2 year old phone now has more computing power than was used to render Toy Story.

ββπ± Apple Regains the Global Best Selling Smartphone Spot
With the iPhone 8
According to Counterpointβs Market Pulse, #Apple regained the top spot in the global best selling #smartphone list with the #iPhone 8. Seems like strong promotions (βHow to shoot on iPhoneβ) running up to the FIFA World Cup helped the tech giant trigger buyer interest in Europe and other markets. iPhone 8 sales were steady in the US postpaid channels.

ββπ Apple's Road to $1 Trillion
Despite the news that #Apple lost its second place in the smartphone market to #Huawei in the past quarter, the #iPhone maker is closer than ever to becoming the first trillion dollar company. Following the release of better-than-expected results on Tuesday, the companyβs share price climbed almost 6 percent on Wednesday, bringing its market capitalization to $990 billion.
As our chart illustrates, Apple reaching a market cap of $1 trillion would have been unthinkable a decade ago. Back in 2008, the company had just released the iPhone, the iPad was still confined to its secretive labs and the financial crisis had brought Appleβs market value down to $76 billion. 10 years and 1.4 billion sold iPhones later, the company founded in a garage in Los Altos, California in 1976 could make history once again.

ββπ± New iPhones Outside the US
There's no doubt about the increase in the price of #Apple's new iPhone every year, but for the first time, an #iPhone can cost a USπΊπΈ customer $1,449. However, compared to other countries in the world, this still is cheap.
When exported to Japanπ―π΅, the price will rise by 2%, but even that's not a lot. The Britishπ¬π§ and Germanπ©πͺ customers, respectively, should pay about 130% and 132% of the price of an iPhone in the US.

ββπ€ Android's Dominance
Ten years ago, on September 23, 2008, the T-Mobile G1 made its debut, marking the birth hour of #Android. More than a year after #Apple had released the first #iPhone, Androidβs debut wasnβt as spectacular and, as opposed to the iPhone, the first Android device still had a physical keyboard. But #Googleβs open approach to building a mobile platform quickly proved to be successful and it took less than three years for Android to become the number 1 platform in the booming smartphone market.

ββο£Ώ Apple Stops Sharing Unit Sales Figures for Its Products
During its Q4 2018 earnings call, #Apple made a surprise announcement, dealing a major blow to analysts and data enthusiasts such as ourselves: going forward, the company will not be sharing unit sales figures for its products. For the past few years, analysts and investors have tended to focus their attention on one number, #iPhone sales, and Apple apparently no longer wants its entire business to be reduced to that one indicator.
When smartphone sales (naturally) started to slow down due to market saturation and slower technological progress, Apple decided to delve even further into the premium segment, bringing its average iPhone selling price to unprecedented heights and reaccelerating growth in its iPhone business. Therefore, Apple wants us to focus on the number that is more likely to be positive going forward.

ββπ± Your Phone's Radiation
For most people nowadays, their #smartphone is within arm's reach 24 hours a day. It's in their pocket while they're at work, it's in their hand on the train ride home and it's on their bedside table as they go to sleep. With this level of proximity and usage, many can't quite shake the niggling feeling that they might be risking damage to themselves in the long run. While conclusive longitudinal research on the effects of cell phone radiation is still hard to come by, for those looking to hedge their bets, this infographic shows the phones that emit the most radiation when held to the ear while calling.
The German Federal Office for Radiation Protection (Bundesamt fΓΌr Strahlenschutz) has a comprehensive database of #smartphones - new and old - and the level of radiation they emit. Following the criteria set for this chart (see footnotes), the current smartphone creating the highest level of radiation is the Mi A1 from Chinese vendor Xiaomi. In fact, the top list is dominated by handsets made by Chinese companies, with #Xiaomi, #OnePlus, #Huawei and #ZTE accounting for 12 of the 15 phones with the largest values. It must be said though, that premium #Apple phones such as the #iPhone 7 and the recently released iPhone 8 are also here to be seen.
