"Many companies can make AI glasses. Making something people want to wear every day is a different problem." Choi Jae-in, head of Samsung Electronics' extended reality research and development team, was briefing reporters in London on July 23, a day after the company showed its first Intelligent Eyewear at Galaxy Unpacked. Most of what he emphasized was weight and comfort. Samsung's engineers argued over tenths of a gram. For example, the battery sits near one temple and the sensors and speakers
South Korean artificial intelligence chip startup FuriosaAI said Wednesday it will supply more than 8,800 of its RNGD inference accelerators for a new artificial intelligence data center being developed in Stockholm. The 15-megawatt project is being developed with US AI infrastructure company I/ONX HPC and data center developer and operator Velox. A 2 MW first phase is scheduled to begin operations in early 2027, with another 8 MW to be added later that year. The site will eventually be expanded
SK hynix and Sandisk have unveiled the first industry standard for high bandwidth flash, seeking to accelerate adoption of a new class of memory designed to bridge the widening performance and capacity gap between high bandwidth memory and solid-state drives. The specification, released Tuesday and due to be presented when the Future of Memory and Storage 2026 conference opens later in the day in Santa Clara, California, defines HBF products with capacities of up to 512 gigabytes and bandwidth r
LG Uplus said Tuesday it has acquired Pago Networks, a domestic specialist in managed detection and response services, in what the carrier called its first merger under a broader push to make security a growth business. MDR firms monitor a client's systems around the clock and act on threats as they surface, rather than just flagging them. The companies did not disclose the price, the stake or whether Pago becomes a consolidated subsidiary, citing confidentiality terms. LG Uplus is South Korea's
Samsung Electronics said its new Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, Fold8 and Flip8 drew 1.44 million preorders in South Korea over seven days, the highest figure ever recorded for a Galaxy smartphone. The tally, logged between July 28 and Monday, breaks the 1.38 million record held by the Galaxy Note10 since 2019, according to the company. It also tops the 1.35 million preorders for the Galaxy S26 series in March and last year's 1.04 million for the Fold7 and Flip7, a rise of nearly 39 percent. Samsung sai
The artificial intelligence chip boom is opening a new legal front for South Korean chipmakers, with Samsung Electronics and SK hynix facing a US class action alleging they coordinated cuts in conventional DRAM supply while shifting capacity toward more profitable high-bandwidth memory. The lawsuit, which also names US memory chipmaker Micron Technology, claims the companies’ production decisions constrained conventional DRAM supply and drove up prices. John Quinn, founder and chairman of US lit
The AI boom is turning multilayer ceramic capacitors into a major profit engine, with leading suppliers raising prices, locking in long-term orders and racing to expand capacity as data center demand outstrips supply. But the rush toward premium MLCCs is reshaping the industry beyond artificial intelligence. As Korean and Japanese suppliers shift production to higher-margin components for AI servers and vehicles, Chinese manufacturers are moving quickly to capture the smartphone and consumer ele
Samsung Electronics and SK hynix are expected to benefit from rising GDDR7 DRAM prices, as Nvidia is reportedly considering raising graphics card prices by 20 to 30 percent amid growing pressure from component costs. Nvidia is weighing the increase to reflect higher prices for graphics processing units and GDDR7 memory, according to industry sources Monday. If implemented, it would mark the US chipmaker’s third graphics card price adjustment this year, following increases in January and May. The
Chinese memory maker ChangXin Memory Technologies has reached a key stage in developing next-generation mobile memory, industry sources said, less than a week after its Shanghai debut made it the most valuable company listed on a mainland Chinese exchange. Chinese business outlet Yicai reported Saturday, citing unnamed industry sources, that a core CXMT affiliate had brought its first LPDDR6 chip to what the outlet described as the "tail end" of research-and-development validation, an important
Samsung Electronics is expected to overtake SK hynix in the high-bandwidth memory market, fueled by the rapid expansion of its next-generation HBM4 business, according to a global investment bank’s report on Sunday. UBS projects Samsung to account for 41 percent of global HBM bit shipments in 2027, narrowly ahead of SK hynix at 39 percent, while Micron Technology is expected to hold a 20 percent share. The forecast marks an acceleration from UBS’ May projection that Samsung would reach parity wi
