AMD to invest $400 million in India by 2028: Here’s what we know

US chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices said on Friday it will invest around $400 million in India over the next five years and will build its largest design center in the tech hub of Bengaluru. AMD’s announcement was made by its Chief Technology Officer Mark Papermaster at an annual semiconductor conference that started Friday in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state of Gujarat. Other speakers at the flagship event include Foxconn Chairman Young Liu and Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra. Despite being a late entrant, the Modi government has been courting investments into India’s nascent chip sector to establish its credentials as a chipmaking hub. AMD said it will open its new design centre campus in Bengaluru by end of this year and create 3,000 new engineering roles within five years. “Our India teams will continue to play a pivotal role in delivering the high-performance and adaptive solutions that support AMD customers worldwide,” Papermaster said.

Apple Watch Ultra 2 with 2.1-inch display may arrive in 2024

Apple will launch a new Apple Watch Ultra with a larger 2.1-inch display next year, according to a new report by the Taiwanese publication DigiTimes. The leak corroborates Haitong International Securities analyst Jeff Pu had shared last month, reports MacRumors.

The current Watch Ultra features around a 1.93-inch screen, therefore, the 2024 model is likely to have nearly a 10 percent larger display. The new wearable is expected to become the first Apple Watch with over a 50mm case size.

The new Ultra is also likely to feature microLED display technology, which will offer higher brightness, decreased power consumption and improved contrast ratio as compared to the current models with OLED displays. According to the Taiwanese research firm, TrendForce, the microLED technology could allow Apple to offer future products with “game-changing product innovations,” which will range from foldable screen devices to rollable-screen iPhone to fully transparent Augmented Reality (AR) glasses.

The iPhone maker’s transition to the technology might take many years to be completed as the microLED display production costs are currently high, the report said. Apple is still in the process of transitioning to OLED displays, so microLED technology will take more time. And the Apple Watch Ultra with the microLED display may not arrive before 2024, according to the DigiTimes report.

Last month, Pu had also said that he expects Apple Watch sales to drop in 2023 due to “lack of significant spec upgrade”.
