Another day, another leak of iPhone 6 parts. This time we're being treated to what we're told is the complete front panel of the 4.7-inch iPhone 6 in white/silver.
As Apple continues to roll out its iOS 8 betas, the latest to hit development devices is beta 5 and it's been around for almost a week now. In that time those using the beta on their iPhones and iPads have been discovering new features as well as changes to old ones, and one of those new features has cropped up very recently indeed.
You may have already heard that Apple is expected to release a new phone at some point next month, and with leaks beginning to build to an all time high, there's little left to the imagination this time around.

It became something of a myth that turned out to be true, but there really was a guy called Sam Sung that worked for Apple as recently as late-2013. Even while both Apple and Samsung were going at it tooth and nail over patents and general hatred of each other, there was a cheery guy working as a specialist in Apple’s Pacific Centre in Vancouver, British Columbia. It was almost too good to be true.
Quite how well Microsoft's third attempt at the Surface is doing still remains a bit of a mystery, but with the Surface Pro 3 it's believed that the company may actually be onto something this time around. Already available in the United States, Canada and Japan, Microsoft is set to bring its latest tablet to a further 25 markets at the end of this month, making it available to pre-order right now.
