Of all the far-fetched rumors we've been fed of the purported "iPhone 5S" these past few weeks, this latest one really takes the biscuit. Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of KGI Securities foresees the Apple's purchase of AuthenTec paying dividends with the seventh-gen smartphone, with the Cupertino finding a way of implementing some description of fingerprint sensor into the home button.
We see a lot of knockoff products surface from China, but instead of impersonating the Apple iPad mini, one particular 7-inch tablet by the name of 'MTK' has sought instead to copy the design of the iPhone 5. So the end result is, as you can see below, a vague representation of what the latest iPhone might have looked like had been fitted with a considerably larger display than the 4-inch Retina LCD it currently possesses.
We've come across fairly interesting and accomplished jailbreak tweaks over the years which iOS users have downloaded numerous times from Cydia. While some have been truly exceptional and innovative, some of them have been created just for the sake of it. The tapUnlock package that is available to download now from Cydia would more than likely be classified as a package created just for the sake of producing something.
The number of photo and video based apps on the App Store is literally insane. The store contains a huge number of quality offerings that not only bring the ability to capture and edit photos and video but also share them with the world through vast networks of followers who have a deep passion for photography and video making. PureShot for iPhone and iPad makes a brave move by stepping away from the filter phenomenon and deciding to concentrate purely on digital photo capture with the intention being to do so with the highest technical quality possible.
The continuing reports and speculation surrounding the possibility of Apple releasing a budget iPhone suggests that even a denial from Phil Schiller can't seem to derail the iPhone rumor train. It has been widely speculated in the last few days that Apple intends to appeal to emerging markets and territories like Latin America with the release of a budget iPhone during 2013, with the latest reports suggesting that the company could save money on a phone of this nature by manufacturing it with a plastic outer shell and only including metal parts where necessary.
I genuinely think the iPhone 5 is one of the most beautiful smartphones I've ever owned, so I certainly don't want to lock that design behind a chunky case where it can't be seen. With that said, a case that is not only designed to protect the device but also improve it in some way is an entirely different story, which is why it's definitely worthwhile taking a look at uNu and their innovations in the iPhone accessory market.
Getting through the day-to-day perils of life can sometimes prove difficult without the added burden of having to keep track of financial information and ensuring that we have managed to stay within any daily, weekly or monthly budget that we have set aside. The App Store is full of financial based apps that allow us to track what we are spending in various different ways, but the DailyCost creation could definitely be one of the best available, with the $0.99 potentially proving to be a shrewd investment.
Before any new iOS release makes its way to your treasured iPhone, iPad or iPod touch device, it goes through a series of dev-only betas, and although the current latest release is either 6.0.1 or 6.0.2 depending on the age of your device, the release of iOS 6.1 has been looming for months. Now, it would appear as though Apple at internal testing stage of a new iOS 6.1 beta, which looks as though it'll serve as the Golden Master build. The Golden Master, or GM build, presents the software in its complete, end-user state (barring any significant bugs), and suggests the public release of iOS 6.1 may not be too far away now.
If you happen to be the type of iOS device user who loves nothing more than adorning your outgoing digital messages with smiley faces and little Emoji characters, then this little accessibility nugget in the operating system is definitely set to bring some amusing times.
Security firm Bitdefender preyed on the privacy-conscious tendencies of the smartphone user when it released its Clueful app last July, with its aim to snitch on apps which may be using your private data, UDID, or other such sensitive info they've often no business snooping through. Rather than allowing iOS users to continue believing in the fallacy that every app developed follows stringent ethical practice, Bitdefender sought to expose and in turn, inform users of exactly how apps may use your data without your knowing.
