Apple Stock News: Tim Cook Meets with Republican lawmakers

Apple Stock News: According to MacRumors, Apple CEO Tim Cook visited Washington, DC this week to meet with influential Republican politicians. As the GOP gets ready to take over the House next year, Cook is reportedly trying to build relationships with them. Cook has arranged meetings with Jim Jordan of Ohio, Darrell Issa of California, and Cathy McMorris Rodgers of Washington. Jordan and McMorris Rodgers will probably participate in panels that regulate the technology sector.

Image Sensor Will Be Used in iPhone 15

According to MacRumors, the upcoming iPhone 15 versions from Apple will have Sony’s most recent “state of the art” picture sensors made in China. Sony’s image sensor doubles the saturation signal in each pixel when compared to ordinary sensors, enabling it to capture lighter and reduce underexposure and overexposure. Additionally, according to speculations, the iPhone 15 Pro will contain a number of unique features that are not present in the ordinary iPhone 15 models. These features include an improved A17 engine, a faster USB-C connector, more RAM, and most significantly, updated zoom camera technology. Apple is developing a periscope telephoto lens to enhance the optical zoom capabilities of the iPhone 15 Pro, enabling up to 10x optical zoom to compete with some Android smartphones already on the market.
