Nike's second-generation offering to the FuelBand range of wearable hardware has gone on sale through Apple's Online Store. Nike officially announced the FuelBand SE last month with the intention being to compliment the first-generation FuelBand with a more feature extensive successor. The wearable was originally intended to go one sale on November 6th, but it seems to have been made available early in a partnership with Apple and their sales channels.
The iPad Air is the hottest topic in the mobile world right now, and since its predecessor, the iPad 4, was rather far from overwhelming, the prospect of a thinner, lighter and altogether more stylish model has certainly been a long time in coming. The tablet has been cost analyzed by none other than IHS Suppli, which has released its estimated component cost of the new and improved iPad Air. In short, it is reckoned that the total component cost is somewhere in the region of $274 for the bare-bones model, which works out at about 13% cheaper than the iPad 3.
The iPad Air just launched a few days ago, and the general consensus is that it is quite simply a cut above any Apple tablet released hitherto. Everything about the design simply oozes class, and although the iPhone 5s definitely still abides by Apple's stylish design motif, it's hard to deny that the iPad Air is a beauty. Ciccarese Design has taken this on board and come through with an iPhone concept created in the image of the all-new iPad Air. Check it out after the leap.
iOS 7 may only have been around for six or so weeks, but already, some are looking ahead towards its eventual successor, iOS 8. There's no doubt that, at least in terms of design, iOS 7 has been the biggest jump in the operating system's lifespan, but like any piece of software, there's still plenty of room for improvement both to looks and general functionality. With this in mind, designer Sangam Bhandari has come up with a rather beautiful concept of iOS 8, and even though we do like the changes Apple and Jony Ive have made with 2013's release, it's hard to pick holes in this elegant, ingenious figment of Bhandari's imagination.
Apple’s hardware is undoubtedly one of the defining characteristics of iOS devices, but it's the underlying power of Apple's proprietary software that really makes the difference. With that said, there are still certain parts of iOS that users don't seem to want to embrace - and it seems the makers of The Simpsons are keen to exploit that.
Whenever a new device from Apple enters the market, it’s bound to make a splash, usually a pretty significant one. Based on my personal experience and subsequent opinion, most of Apple’s hardware and software have all the reason for being like this. They offer great usability, can serve for both entertainment and productivity, are durable, and generally offer good value for money. The iPad Air that was unveiled just last month has been no exception, and it seems we have one more reason to love the device. It carries an awesome battery with almost unparalleled battery life, as a recent experiment has shown.

The latest and greatest in Apple's full-sized iPad range is now officially available for consumer purchase. As expected, there has been a great deal of interest in the lightest, thinnest and fastest iPad yet with certain stores in the United States and around Europe having to manage queues that started forming 24-hours prior to launch. With that said, the official Apple.com website still shows that the iPad Air ships within 24-hours on all models barring the 128GB Cellular + Wi-Fi version. But what if digital purchasing isn't your thing and you'd prefer to grab one from a local retail outlet without fear of being disappointed by dwindling stock levels?
Apple's thinner, lighter and faster iPad Air is officially available for sale to the general public today. Queues in various flagship stores around the United States and Europe had people queuing outside for more than 24-hours in an effort to guarantee they are amongst the first to get their hands on Apple's best performing iPad to date. To some it may seem like nothing more than an evolutionary update to the iPad line, but to others it most definitely still contains that Cupertino magic that is derived from being designed in California by Apple.
The Nexus 5 is well and truly here, and keeping up with the tradition which we follow here at Redmond Pie where we pit the latest flagship devices against their immediate competitors that are already on the market, in this case, it’s the Google Nexus 5 versus the mighty Apple iPhone 5s.
