Apple’s virtual-only WWDC happening on June 22
Swift Student Challenge also announced
Confirmed a couple of months ago to be an online-only event, Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference or WWDC now has an official date — June 22.
The WWDC20 will be hosted in the Apple Developer app and on the Apple Developer website for free for all developers. This year’s WWDC will be an opportunity for creatives and developers around the world to get early access to the future of iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, and watchOS.
Apple also announced its Swift Student Challenge — an opportunity for student developers to showcase their love of coding by creating their own Swift playground.
Swift Playgrounds is an app for iPad and Mac that makes learning the Swift programming language interactive and fun. Now through 11:59PM PDT on May 17, student developers from all over the world can submit to the Swift Student Challenge by creating an interactive scene in a Swift playground that can be experienced within three minutes. Winners will receive an exclusive WWDC20 jacket and pin set.
Developers are encouraged to download the Apple Developer app where additional WWDC20 program information — including keynote and Platforms State of the Union details, session and lab schedules, and more — will be shared in June. Information will also be made available on the Apple Developer website and by email.

Motorsport has a flair for dramatic arrivals. When a new car rolls onto the track, the design alone can tell you it means business.
The Infinix NOTE 60 Ultra makes that kind of entrance at Mobile World Congress 2026.
Created with Italian automotive design house Pininfarina, the flagship pairs a supercar-inspired aesthetic with premium features including a 200MP camera system, satellite calling, and immersive JBL-tuned sound.
The result is a device that positions itself as more than just another NOTE series upgrade — it’s Infinix stepping onto the flagship grid.
Supercar-inspired design
Co-developed with legendary Italian design firm Pininfarina, the NOTE 60 Ultra takes heavy inspiration from high-performance sports cars.
The phone introduces what Infinix calls the world’s first Uni-Chassis Cam Module. Instead of the typical camera bump, the camera system sits beneath a single sheet of Corning Gorilla Glass Victus that flows seamlessly across the rear. The result is a smooth aluminum unibody design that maintains a clean silhouette while improving durability and pocketability.
Infinix says the design mirrors the aerodynamic philosophy of supercars, prioritizing smooth surfaces and uninterrupted lines.
Adding to the automotive inspiration is a Floating Taillight signature on the back that lights up when the device powers on. A hidden Active Matrix Display also appears during startup, echoing the digital dashboards seen in modern sports cars. The small display can show notifications, icons, or even a pixel-style companion.
The NOTE 60 Ultra comes in four Italian-inspired finishes: Torino Black, Monza Red, Amalfi Blue, and Roma Silver.
Flagship imaging system
Despite the flush camera design, the NOTE 60 Ultra still packs a powerful imaging setup.
At the center is a 200MP Samsung ISOCELL HPE sensor designed to deliver ultra-high-resolution photos with improved detail and clarity. It is paired with a 50MP Samsung ISOCELL JN5 periscope telephoto lens and a 112-degree ultra-wide camera.
The system supports a versatile zoom range, starting with a 2x optical crop, extending to 3.5x optical zoom, and reaching 7x lossless digital zoom, with up to 100x zoom for distant subjects.
Infinix also introduces support for the XDR display standard with Ultra HDR Capture, powered by a proprietary XDR Image Engine. The system aims to preserve highlights and shadows more accurately, especially in challenging lighting scenarios like night scenes or sunsets.
Connectivity beyond cellular networks
Another headline feature is two-way satellite communication.
The NOTE 60 Ultra supports both satellite calling and messaging, allowing users to stay connected even in areas without traditional cellular coverage. The feature can also enable emergency location sharing during disasters or when traveling through remote regions.
According to Infinix, the system offers coverage across a broader number of countries compared to typical satellite messaging implementations.
Big battery, fast charging
Powering the device is a 7000mAh silicon-carbon battery, paired with Infinix’s new Battery Self-Healing Technology. The company claims the system can restore up to 1 percent of battery health every 200 charge cycles, potentially helping maintain long-term battery performance.
Charging is equally fast, with support for 100W wired charging and 50W wireless charging. Infinix says the device can charge from 1 to 100 percent in around 48 minutes via wired charging.
The phone runs on a 4nm MediaTek Dimensity 8400 Ultimate chipset, which Infinix claims delivers up to 25 percent faster multitasking alongside improved app responsiveness.
Display, audio, and AI features
On the front is a 1.5K Ultra HDR display with a 144Hz refresh rate and up to 4500 nits peak brightness. The panel also features predictive stabilization designed to reduce motion discomfort when watching videos or gaming while in motion.
For audio, the phone includes stereo speakers tuned by JBL.
The NOTE 60 Ultra runs XOS 16 based on Android 16, introducing a new interface called GlowSpace. The software integrates several AI-powered tools including personalized file organization, adaptive knowledge features, and an Advanced Health Monitor capable of real-time vitals tracking.
Availability
The Infinix NOTE 60 Ultra will be available with 12GB RAM and two storage options – 256GB and 512GB, along with built-in eSIM support.
It will ship with three years of major Android updates and five years of security patches.
Infinix will also bundle a deluxe gift box that includes a supercar-inspired MagCharge stand, Kevlar MagPad, custom Kevlar MagCase, and a track-edition SIM ejector pin.

TECNO unleashes Tonino Lamborghini collection
Combining Italian aesthetics with innovative technology
TECNO has partnered with Tonino Lamborghini to unveil an entire collection of themed devices, combining Italian aesthetics with cutting-edge technology.
Collaborations with luxury lifestyle brands are nothing new for smartphone manufacturers, but TECNO takes theirs to another level by having a full slate of devices take a co-branded look.
As such, all products under the partnership flaunt distinct red, platinum, and black colorways, reflecting Tonino Lamborghini’s core colors which themselves symbolize “Pure Italian Talent” and the heritage of the Miura Bull.
The first co-branded device under the partnership is the TECNO TAURUS MEGA MINI G1 Pro, a water-cooling gaming PC.
It is joined by the TECNO POVA Metal Tonino Lamborghini Limited Edition. The POVA Metal is part of the new POVA ecosystem, which features a first full-metal unibody 5G phone.
On its own, it has a futuristic all-metal construction and Snapdragon processor. The design for the collaboration, naturally, is unique and takes inspiration from the luxury brand.
There are three available colors, with the brand’s logo and signature typeface visible on the back panel.
There is also a reflective island on the middle, which is a direct representation of the Lamborghini Shield — a staple of the brand’s watch cases.
This is actually a digital dial that can display information from the phone, like notifications and more.
More TECNO x Tonino Lamborghini AIoT ecosystem devices, including laptops, tablets, and wearables, will also release soon.
At MWC 2026 Barcelona, visitors could already see the appearance of the aforementioned devices. The MEGABOOKs, for instance, also come with a refined look which is a nod to the mechanical motifs Tonino has been using for decades.
