Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reports the release of iOS 27 will include a revamp of the AirPods settings menu to improve functionality in response to user feedback, though no specific details are clear at this time. Gurman also shares Apple will improve Apple Watch heart rate tracking with the WatchOS 27 update and other stability and performance improvements are on the way, though the refinements will be minor to start Project Mulberry, the future AI health agent, appears to be pushed back even further, with new delays possibly to be released later in the iOS 27 update cycle. Mark Gurman's Power on newsletter also includes how Apple will upgrade the camera app with more customization options in iOS 27, including the ability to choose which features appear in the app and where they're placed. Sources say this will include movable flash exposure, timer and resolution controls. The changes are aimed at making the standard camera app more appealing and suited to professional use. Chinese AI startup Deepseek announced a permanent price cut for the V4 Pro AI model by 75%. Usage costs now range from 0.025 to 6 yuan per million tokens, compared to the previous pricing range of 0.1 to 24 yuan per million tokens. 24 yuan is approximately $3.54 US and 6 yuan is approximately $0.88 US. No specific reason for the price cut was revealed at this time. A BIOS update pushed through Windows Update affected HP customers by making certain laptops unbootable. As the BIOS update was designated critical, the update was applied automatically without any user agreement required. Affected laptops include the ZBook Ultra G1A and the EliteBook X G1A. Some users have been able to revert the update, but only by using a specific HP USB C to Ethernet dongle, an HP spokesperson told the Register. HP is aware of the purported BIOS issues and is looking into the matter. On Monday, Huawei announced a method to improve the company's chip designs to rival TSMC and Intel's offerings without violating U.S. sanctions, claiming the new approach will become an industry standard in the future. Huawei's Kirin chipset line will be the first to implement the new process, which reduces data travel time by folding and stacking chips instead of fitting more transistors. No independent performance data has been shared at this time.
