Yesterday, the news was marked by good and bad news. Good for PC gamers, who can now upgrade their graphics card at a relatively decent price. Mauve for Sony, which risks almost 6 billion euros in fines. And finally between the two for Apple aficionados, who may have the opportunity to buy an iPhone 14 mini.
Apple may not have abandoned the iPhone 14 mini
After the failure of its predecessors, many leakers have agreed that the iPhone 14 will not offer a mini model. But this is not the case for everyone. Leaker Evan Blass indeed claims that Apple is indeed preparing the shipment of iPhone 14 mini. This would thus arrive alongside the iPad Pro and a 10th generation iPad. It only remains to wait for confirmation from the Cupertino company.

Sony faces record fine for scamming gamers
UK consumer rights advocate Alex Neill accuses Sony of simply ripping off PlayStation gamers. According to him, the Japanese firm abuses its dominant position to sell its games too expensive, in addition to taking a 30% commission on each purchase on the PlayStation Store. According to these calculations, Sony should reimburse consumers close to 6 billion euros.

Graphics cards at the recommended price, the dream come true
We almost thought we would never say that one day, but a large part of the graphics cards are now on sale at the recommended price by Nvidia and AMD. This is particularly the case for the most popular models, which are necessarily slightly more expensive than the others. Beware, however, of the upcoming release of the new generation, which could once again drive up prices.
