A new report has highlighted two reasons why there will be an iPhone 15 Pro price hike, causing some disappointment to fans. In other news, India’s maiden solar mission Aditya-L1 completed its second Earth-bound maneuver in the early hours of today. This and more in today’s Tech briefing. Let us take a look. ## iPhone 15 Pro price hike A 9to5Mac report quoted DigiTimes Research senior analyst Luke Lin to reveal that both iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max can see a “major price hike” compared to the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max. However, the iPhone 15 and the iPhone 15 Plus, the non-Pro models, are expected to not witness any price hikes and be available at the same price as their predecessors. As per Lin, the price hike will be largely due to two reasons. First, the shift from a stainless steel body to a titanium frame, and second, the inclusion of a periscope zoom lens in iPhone 15 Pro Max.

ISRO reported the execution of this maneuver from the ISTRAC (ISRO Telemetry, Tracking, and Command Network) ground station in Bengaluru, with tracking support from stations in Mauritius and Port Blair. The spacecraft now orbits at 282 km x 40225 km. The next maneuver is slated for September 10, 2023. Aditya-L1 spacecraft is carrying seven different payloads, with four dedicated to solar observation and three to measuring plasma and magnetic fields in the Sun's vicinity. Dig deeper.

They believe that long-form videos, a significant source of ad revenue for the video streaming giant, are diminishing in popularity as the user base increasingly gravitates towards the platform's short video format. Shorts, which boasts over 2 billion users, is drawing viewers away from long-form content. This shift can be attributed to the surge in smartphone usage in developing regions, the rise of TikTok, and the preferences of younger users, all contributing to the explosive growth of short video formats in general.
