Devices like the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad are becoming increasingly popular simply due to the fact that they allow users to remain connected to the surrounding world no matter where they are. The great thing about humans is that we are, by nature, a social species who love nothing more than interacting with one another and creating connections that last a life-time. Smartphones and mobile devices have allowed those connections to be made on the move and the UpTo app from Rock City Apps certainly makes that easier.
Both at the Yerba Buena Center keynote and later online, Apple made no mention at all of the specifications of the new A6 chip or the RAM inside the iPhone 5. It’s not even made known if the chip is dual-core or quad-core; we only found out about that yesterday when the folks over at AnandTech did some digging and discovered some very interesting things about it. Well, the same folks have now come up with information regarding the quantity, design and speed of RAM inside iPhone 5. Check it out after the jump.
You've already taken the time to wake yourself up at the crack of dawn to pre-order the shiny new iPhone 5, which in itself shows that you happen to enjoy the finer things in life when it comes to consumer technology. Sure, the smartphone market plays home to a large number of fantastic and highly capable devices, but the iPhone is the only one that seems to be surrounded by that sense of wonder and extreme levels of consumer interest.
Announced four days ago, and all set to be launched on September 21st, five days from now, the iPhone 5 will be competing directly against Windows Phone 8 based smartphones like the Nokia Lumia 920 and Android based smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy S III and HTC One X. We’ve already compared the former two against the iPhone 5, and now it’s time to compare it against the One X.
We should all know by now that Apple has officially announced the details about their new iPhone and with pre-order stocks of the sixth-generation device being depleted, it looks as if they have once again managed to capture the attention of consumers. The device is set to hit retail shelves on Friday September 21st, but it looks as though not everyone is waxing lyrical about Apple's latest creation. We didn't expect Samsung to be shouting from the rooftops in favor of the Apple hardware, but in a move that tastes like sour grapes, they have actually gone and produced an advert that openly attacks the new iPhone 5.
The word "Starmatic" may stir up some nostalgic emotions for hardcore photography fans out there, and although it now exists as a piece of mobile software designed for the iPhone, it initially began life as the Kodak Brownie Starmatic. The physical device was part of the Brownie Star series of devices from Kodak and found itself in production from 1959 to 1963. As well as having a rather interesting name, the Kodak creation was also the world's first automatic camera and came with Automatic Exposure Control as well as fixed-focus abilities as standard.
The App Store is overflowing with so many apps that are split into so many different categories that it can sometimes be difficult for users to find what they are looking for. The search algorithms within the store is constantly being tweaked and amended to make things better, but unless you have the direct link to a specific app or know the actual name of it, it can be extremely hard to find good creations that manage to complete the desired task at hand.
After four iterations, Apple has upped the display size of the iPhone from 3.5 to 4-inches, with an appropriate increase in resolution (1136 x 640). It is arguably the biggest feature of the iPhone 5 for most people, as the other big feature - 4G LTE - is still restricted to limited to a select number of cities in the U.S. and Europe.
The initial announcement and showing off of the iPhone 5 seemed to bring that old familiar deja vu feeling, with many outlets and analysts saying that Apple hasn’t done enough this time around to win the hearts of consumers, and their latest smartphone release won't capture the imagination of potential customers. Anyone who made an attempt to pre-order the new iPhone 5 this morning will more than likely tell you that this just simply isn't true, with the same difficulties being faced due to high demand and Apple's online store getting hammered from all angles.
The sixth iteration of the iPhone was recently announced during an Apple organized media event in San Francisco, with Apple’s Senior Vice President of Worldwide Marketing claiming that the new iPhone 5 is "the best thing to happen to the iPhone since the iPhone". Apple’s popular little smartphone has often been described as the device that changed everything in the smartphone world, so surely, it needs an accompanying product that changes everything in the accessories world, right?
