The iPhone 6 may be the hottest topic in tech circles right now, but even though the annual dose of iPhone Fever has taken a stronghold once more, we've also the small matter of the iPad refresh to contend with. Only yesterday, we heard that the next-gen iPad Air could double up on RAM to 2GB, with certain 'pro' features apparently set to arrive with iOS 8.1 early next year, and now, a new parts leak has presented us with a close-up look at some of the device's internals.
Whether you're a fan of Apple's products or not, the coverage pertaining to the so-called 'iPhone 6' is pretty much inescapable right now, and although we've heard a great deal about the 4.7-inch model of the Cupertino's next smartphone, the more sizeable, 5.5-inch variant has been thrown out mainly as something of an afterthought. With the announcement now creeping up on us, though, we've had a few more tidbits of information just lately, and a new leak supposedly depicting the rear shell of the 5.5-inch iPhone 6 offers a sense of perspective on how it may stand up against its smaller cousin.
Prompted into action by Google's release of the Chromecast dongle last year, Apple has been on something of a mission to bring more content to its famed set-top. Sure, we haven't seen any new hardware for a good couple of years now as far as Apple TV is concerned, but for those in ownership of the current-gen models, there are now dozens of channels and services to choose from. For sports fans, the introduction of NFL Now is likely to go down well, and if you don't happen to own the Cupertino company's little black box, you'll be pleased to learn that Amazon Fire TV and Yahoo Screen should also reap the benefits of NFL Now over the next few weeks.
Apple's iconic retail stores are recognizable the world over, but despite the company having broadened its horizons significantly over the past few years, major cities and shopping malls across the world have yet to be graced with the presence of the famed, glass-clad outlets. Rumor has long since suggested that a very sizeable store would soon grace the United Arab Emirates, with reports also implying that it would be the biggest Apple Retail Store to date, and now, it seems as though Dubai's Mall of the Emirates will soon play host to a vast Apple Store.
It’s not new that developers would dissect the beta builds of an upcoming iOS version to unearth some information about potential hardware changes, especially if the developer build seeded would precede a major hardware refresh (which basically means other than the “s” iterations of the iPhone). Today, some new information has been uncovered about the display resolution of the upcoming iPhone 6 by looking at the iOS 8 SDK, which puts the resolution at 414 x 736 resolution.
As consumers, we tend to focus on the more obvious new features when assessing the improvements being made to a new device. In the case of the iPhone 6, we've mainly concentrated on the slicker, thinner form factor and larger display, but as per the sizeable pile of evidence relating to Apple's next handset, there's plenty else to look forward to besides. It has been mentioned on several occasions that the device will pack improved connectivity, with faster Wi-Fi and cellular, and a new tidbit of info may finally have offered some key details on the latter.
When we told you about Apple's rumored reversible USB Lightning cable, plenty of people were rather excited at the idea. With good reason too, because we've all had that brain-melting moment when we have tried to plug a USB cable in only for it to inevitably be the wrong way around. It's a fact of life that nobody can plug a USB cable in the right way first time, and we've known it take three goes before people have managed it - and there are only two orientations to choose from!
Apple released the sixth Developer Preview of its latest desktop OS just yesterday. Named after the famous National Park in California, the OS promises to introduce a number of powerful new features, an overhauled, modern looking user-interface and a vast array of additional improvements that should satisfy even the most difficult to please desktop user. In addition to those amendments, the latest Developer Preview of OS X Yosemite also introduces four new stunning wallpapers that not only perfectly show off the beauty of the Yosemite National Park, but also promise to introduce visual delight to our desktops.
A few days back, we told you reports (read: leaked information) of a claim that Apple’s new iPhone 6 will ship with a reversible Lightning cable, in that the cable will be pluggable into a USB port either way up. At that time, it was uncertain whether the cables will actually come with the upcoming iPhone or a later iteration. Today, a number of images for the new Lightning cable retail boxes have been leaked that show that the new Lightning cable might be closer than it earlier seemed.
Another day and another leak related to the upcoming iPhone 6; it seems it’s pretty much raining leaked information related to the purported device these days. Today’s leaks basically comprises of an alleged schematic of the new device that shows the iPhone 6 to be featuring a 1GB RAM chip instead of a larger module, putting it at par with the iPhone 5, iPhone 5s and the iPhone 5c.
