Ben Reid·September 12, 2014

Many of Apple's mobile adversaries, including HTC and Samsung, took to Twitter on Tuesday to offer their verdicts on the iPhone 6 / 6 Plus launch, and rather unsurprisingly, the new smartphone double-act didn't garner favorable reviews. While you'd expect rivals to take a pop at one another at times like this, though, there's a special animosity between Samsung and its Californian rival, and as such, the Korean outfit has upped the ante with a series of half a dozen clips picking faults in Apple's newly-unleashed devices. In addition, there's even a little dig at the hit-and-miss live stream that Apple put out, below, you can enjoy the playlist in its entirety.

Tuesday's announcement of the "Bigger than bigger" iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus smartphones not only lived up to much of the pre-event speculation, but also managed to live up to our expectations, at least for most of us.

Here’s What The Apple Watch Would’ve Have Looked Like With A Round Face [Images]

Ben Reid·September 11, 2014

The Apple Watch was finally revealed on Tuesday at Apple's special keynote address, but while many have been quick to praise the numerous designs on offer, the three main variants are very much alike. Notably, they all take the same shape, with a rectangular display akin to the vast majority of smartwatches already available. But in the world of real watches, rounder faces are abundant, and you only have to take a look at the much-lauded Moto 360 from Motorola to get an idea of what a circular wearable looks like. Thanks to some new concept images that have trickled out onto the Web, we now have a visual on what Apple Watch may have looked like if it was more traditional-looking, and below, you can check it out.

Apple Rolls Out New iCloud Storage Price Plans, Here Are The Details

Ben Reid·September 11, 2014

In a fortnight that has seen Apple's iCloud slandered and deemed culpable for the spate of celebrity image leaks, it's certainly been a test of the online storage service's mettle. But with the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus and Apple Watch having all appeared during the past 48 hours, all seems forgiven - at least, for now - and so with the world completely distracted by these shiny new gadgets, the Cupertino company has taken this opportunity to bring its new pricing structure into effect.

Apple To Start Digital Queuing System For iPhone 6 At Stores To Simplify Buying Process

Ben Reid·September 11, 2014

Apple's iPhone launch days are always busy, and if you've ever previously queued for the latest device on the very first morning, you'll know that it can be a long, tedious wait. Sure, the system whereby staff hand out paper cards, detailing the exact configuration of the iPhone you require is efficient, since it means you're not wasting time if the specific handset you want has sold out, but given the technology at Apple's disposal, the process does seem rather antiquated. This is why, on iPhone 6 launch day, Apple will be rolling out an entirely new, digital queuing system, a revamp of the old model that is more precise and flexible for customers.

Apple Working To Improve Current One-Day Battery Life Of Watch Before Launch

Ben Reid·September 11, 2014

Apple finally took the wraps off its inaugural smartwatch efforts yesterday, and although the introduction was rather brief, new tidbits of information are emerging all the time. One detail conspicuous by its absence was that of battery life, which Apple scarcely discussed. While both the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus got a detailed breakdown of battery life, there wasn't so much as a mention of the Apple Watch's retention rates, and it has now been suggested that this is because Apple wants to improve the current state of play prior to the roll-out next year.
