Fujifim suspends X100V orders likely due to overwleming demand, component shortage; raises questions about viability of successor

The Fujifilm X100V has been one of Fujifilm's most successful fixed-lens endeavours to date, with many reviewers praising it highly for its image quality and great handling. It seems that Fujifilm has become a victim of its own success, as it appears to be unable to keep up with demand for the camera. B&H Photo is only the most recent retailer to suspend orders for the X100V, calling into question Fujifilm's supply chain and the ability to ship enough units of a potential successor.

Apple Vision Pro: Timely Chinese-market availability in doubt thanks to Huawei trademarking conflict

In choosing an official product name for its "first spatial computer", Apple apparently blanked on the fact that another major electronics OEM also calls its flagship AR glasses the "Vision" series. Furthermore, it seems that Huawei did in fact trademark the name Vision Pro in China well in advance, meaning the Cupertino-based giant may now have a problem introducing its first-gen XR headset to that major market.
