Siri In iOS 9 To Get Apple Watch Like Makeover

Oliver Haslam·May 9, 2015

Almost everyone who has used Siri on an Apple Watch agrees that the personal digital assistant is at its best when living on the wrist.

Microsoft will be abandoning its traditional release cycle as the software giant aims to push out Windows 10 as the last version of the Windows OS per say.

Ben Reid·May 4, 2015

Microsoft's Windows 10 is eagerly anticipated for a number of reasons, and while there's a sense that the software giant has something to prove after Windows 8, the Office maker is going above and beyond the call of duty. Allied to the broad spectrum of features and products arriving this year from Microsoft, it has now been revealed that Windows 10's emoji selection includes a middle finger, complete with a variety of skin tones that let you say "go away" in perhaps the simplest and most effective manner.

Samsung Does It Again: Copies Apple For Its Own Design Video

Paul Morris·May 2, 2015

If you take a look back over some of the decisions made internally at Samsung over the last few years it's extremely difficult to argue in favour of the integrity of its design department. We will never truly know if the decision to blatantly copy the visuals of numerous Apple devices is made at the top of the corporate food-chain and then passed down to the individual departments, or if the design teams are so lacking in individuality that they take the easy option, but what we do know is that if this latest Galaxy S6 video is anything to go by the trend has managed to infiltrate the company's marketing departments as well.

Meet Microsoft Edge, The Internet Explorer Replacement That Can Run Chrome Extensions

Ben Reid·April 30, 2015

Microsoft has been very, very busy in its preparation for Windows 10. More than just a superficial update, the company is rebuilding a lot of its software components from the ground upwards, including its famed surfing client. Internet Explorer's time passed many years ago, and over the past few months, we've seen tidbits of its successor, which was codenamed Project Spartan. Today, at the software maker's BUILD dev gathering, Project Spartan has been officially named Microsoft Edge, and while you're probably glad to see the back of IE, there are plenty of reasons to instead be more excited about what Spartan has to offer.
