If you call your PC maker to troubleshoot a Windows 10 machine, don't be surprised if the advice is to roll back to an earlier version. In a pair of undercover tech support calls, representatives from... HP and Dell both suggested uninstalling Windows 10 as a blanket solution to problems, Laptop Mag reports.

According to a recent report from Taiwan's Commercial Times, via EE Times and a separate research report from KGI Securities' Ming-Chi Kuo, Taiwan-based TSMC may have won sole production rights on the... A10 chip slated for the next-generation iPhone 7. This is in contrast to the split production of the A9 processor between Samsung and TSMC featured in the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus.

The Commercial Times report mentions TSMC's integrated fan-out wafer-level packaging (InFO WLP) technology as one of the key inclusions in the production contract. InFO WLP is...

There are so many great phones out there these days that ship with built-in wireless charging. Samsung’s new Galaxy S6 and Galaxy Note 5 have it, there are a bunch of Nexus phones with wireless... charging support, LG’s new phones have it, and so on.
