In the above poster, the Honor X50i+ can be seen gracing a unique rear camera module, which houses two cameras and an LED flash. The edges of the phone are flat, and it is expected to come in blue and pink color variants.

The device seems to be equipped with a side-facing fingerprint scanner.

YouTube Premium is Now More Costlier in Argentina, Australia, Austria, Chile, Germany, Poland, and Turkey

If you, like me, enjoy watching YouTube videos while having a meal and happen to live in one of the countries mentioned above, I have some bad news for you. Starting from November 1, 2023, YouTube Premium prices are going up in certain countries. Actually, this isn’t much of a surprise, as a few months ago, YouTube already raised the price of the YouTube Premium subscription. However, this change didn’t affect some countries at that time. Now, the circumstances have “equalized” for everyone once again. Here are the details…

YouTube Premium Price Hike to Go Into Effect in November

Starting November 1, 2023, YouTube Premium prices are increasing in the following countries:

  • Argentina
  • Australia
  • Austria
  • Chile
  • Germany
  • Poland
  • Turkey
YouTube

Existing subscribers will start to see the new pricing with their next billing cycle. However, in Australia, existing subscribers will be able to keep their current pricing for at least three more months. YouTube says that the price increase is necessary to “continue to improve Premium and support the creators and artists you watch on YouTube.” YouTube also says that it wants to help creators earn more money, and that increasing the price of Premium will help it do that.

The price increase will make YouTube Premium more expensive for users in the affected countries. However, users who value the features that Premium offers, such as ad-free viewing and background play, may still find that it is a good value. YouTube has recently taken a more aggressive stance against ad blockers. In some cases, YouTube has even blocked users from watching videos if they have an ad blocker installed. This is likely because YouTube relies on advertising revenue to generate income.

Apple Accidentally Sends a Man $96,000 Worth of 60 1 TB iPhone 15 Pro Max Units

Have you ever been afraid that something would happen to your order when you ordered an expensive product online? Such as the product being lost in shipping, delivered to the wrong person, or the company making a mistake? It’s a natural concern, as any of these things can happen. Recently, a business person ordered four iPhone 15 Pro Max smartphones for their employees. However, instead of receiving four phones, they received 60 units of the 1 TB iPhone 15 Pro Max. Here are the details…

Apple Shipping Mistake: Man Receives 60 iPhone 15 Pro Max Units Instead of 4, But Can Apple Take Them Back?

The incident came to light with a video shared by a TikTok user named @legends_gio. According to the video, a businessman who wanted to purchase iPhone 15 Pro Max for the employees in his company placed an order for one with 1 TB storage for himself and three with 256 GB storage for his employees. After a waiting period, the man received the products and was left in utter astonishment.

He ordered four iPhone 15 Pro Max phones for $3,600, but instead received a box of 60 units of 1 TB 15 Pro Max. The international selling price of each of these phones is $1,599, so the cost of this shipping error to Apple is approximately $96,000. Interestingly, the man is not obligated to return the phones, but Apple can render them unusable if it chooses. For example, during the Black Lives Matter protests in the US, phones stolen from looted Apple Stores were rendered unusable with messages requesting their return.
