Every other Tuesday Apple releases a whole bunch of new betas, and today is one of those days. We already told you about the new, fourth beta release of iOS 9 and Apple has now also pushed new releases of OS X 10.11 El Capitan and watchOS 2 out to developers. Accessible via either the Developer Portal or the App Store if you are installing El Capitan, the new betas are available to download right now.
If you actually stopped and took time to consider the power that you hold within your hand when using your smartphone you'd probably be shocked at how far devices and manufacturers have come in such a short space of time. The announcement and release of the Apple iPhone back in 2007 lit a fire under the smartphone market which for the first time saw mainstream users start to part with as much cash as business users and executives alike. Now, thanks to a brilliantly put together video by CNET, we can take a look at the evolution of smartphone design over the last eight years.
Apple Watch is launching in three additional countries on July 31st, with customers in Russia, Turkey and New Zealand all set to finally receive Apple's first wearable by the end of this month.
A number of important and prominent companies based in Silicon Valley have surprisingly given their backing to Samsung in the company's patent infringement court case against Apple, according to a new report. Large tech giants including Facebook, Google, HP, eBay, and Dell have organized and submitted a petition to a federal court of appeals with the intention of convincing the reviewing panel to take another look at its decision to award the iPhone maker a large chunk of profit from certain Samsung devices that were deemed to have infringed on Apple's patents.
The Apple Watch may be Apple's "most personal product yet". It may be the first new product type that the Cupertino company has launched for a number of years. It may also be company's first new category product post-Steve Jobs. It may even only be the beginning of the road map as it sits with its first-generation release status. However, it seems that while all of those things are indeed true, it's also true that the precise timepiece is performing extremely well when it comes to customer satisfaction, according to recent surveys.
Predicting Apple's financial results is often a case of just coming up with huge numbers for both sales and profits, but if you prefer your guesswork to be a little more nuanced, KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has been outlining his thoughts on Apple's recently completed financial quarter.
Here's full specs comparison between iPod touch 6 vs iPod touch 5 vs iPhone 6. Apple released iPod touch 6 only last week, along with new iPod nano and iPod shuffle models.
Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush has proved that there is indeed time for a little fun and games in this world, even when you're very much in the spotlight as one of the individuals vying to become the most powerful man in the world. In a new whimsical 46-second campaign video entitled "Jeb's Silicon Valley Favorites List" Bush, or "Jeb" as he generally prefers to be called, reveals his not so secret love of Apple gadgets along with his preferred Twitter hashtag and even more bizarrely, how he likes to dress.
Xiaomi may be one of the largest smartphone vendors in the world, but recent spotlight on the Chinese company has seen it drawn into the copycat saga that has dogged Apple and Samsung for quite some time. The Beijing headquartered company is well known for producing relatively high-end smartphones, amongst other items of consumer technology, for seemingly budget prices, but the company has been accused of copying Apple's software and design elements in a number of its Mi device. Hugo Barra, an executive at Xiaomi, doesn't see what all of the "copycat melodrama" is about.
Apple is all about marketing its products well, and it usually does a good job at that. In line with the tradition, the Cupertino company today has released not one, not two, but four new ads for the Apple Watch through its YouTube channel that showcase the wearable being used in a number of situations, including traveling, working out, interacting with family etc. Before we go into the detail of these ads, allow me to say that for a company that usually makes pretty good ads, Apple has left me disappointed with these.
