A new report is citing unnamed sources claims that Apple's executive team is mulling over the possibility of charging an eye-watering $400 for the firm's as yet unannounced but much talked about smartwatch.
The iPhone camera is the most popular camera on the planet as of now, and it’s not just something that cannot be backed up by facts; Flickr statistics clearly support this notion. It makes sense, too - when the original iPhone was launched back in 2007, the image quality was far superior to the competition despite being a fixed-focus, measly 2 megapixel shooter. Now we’re close to the iPhone 6’s launch, and the current flagship, the iPhone 5s, has a camera that’s come a long way since. It produces really good images, and it’s always with you in your pocket, making it camera of choice.
While fragmentation is one of the biggest issues plaguing the Android ecosystem, it has also been one of the most beneficial aspects of the operating system, since it has allowed a number of OEMs to have their own builds of Android onto numerous smartphones, resulting in Google’s mobile OS becoming the largest market share holder in terms of usage. While OEM builds are the more popular ones out there, there are branches like CyanogenMod as well that have, over the years, built up a devoted fan base and massive developer community that continues to contribute to Cyanogen’s growth and development. And now, things might be headed in an even better direction for CM, as the team behind Cyanogen Inc. has met with Microsoft’s CEO, Satya Nadella.
Popcorn Time, a BitTorrent service / app that allows you to stream movies, was initially thought to be fraught with legal issues and general negative baggage, but having established a strong user base on Android, Mac, Windows and a number of popular platforms, an iOS version is now just days away from releasing as promised before. It's not so much a case of Popcorn Time as iPhone Time, and what's more, the app will be able to stream content directly to Google's Chromecast as well as AirPlay devices like the Apple TV.
Learning to play the piano properly has never been something that most of us can just walk into cold, but there are techniques that can be used in order to try and make the learning process as easy as possible. Georgia Tech, for example, created some gloves which vibrate in order to help people learn how to play. Ingenious stuff.
Apple's iPhone 6 is well on the way. Set to be announced at the Flint Center on Apple's Cupertino campus in just 12 days' time, we now know quite a bit about the forthcoming handset. For example, we're aware that it will pack a vastly improved (albeit still dual-core) A8 processor and Near-Field Communication (or NFC) - something that Apple has stood back and allowed Android / Windows Phone vendors to indulge in unchallenged. A new leak today offers some high-quality snaps purported to depict the iPhone 6's logic board, and therein, we get a glimpse of the new A8 SoC as well as the NFC component.
It’s become official now that the new iPhone 6 is finally coming on September 9th - something that has been in the rumors for quite some time now. However, it’s absolutely certain now and has been certain even before, that no one would be getting even a sneak peak at the actual device until whatever it date it gets for the official unveiling. That never discouraged people from speculating what the device can look like through concept designs, and now, a luxury retailer has put together a bootable prototype of the iPhone 6 through several leaked parts. Yup, it does boot!

In the modern Digital Age, the primary IM services are WhatsApp, Kik Messenger, iMessage alongside a myriad of others boasting millions of users. But not so long ago, Microsoft's MSN Messenger was the dominant force, but after the Windows maker acquired Skype for the tidy sum of $8.5 billion, things seemed to wane. Now, after 15 long years - the last few of which have been in relative obscurity - the software maker has finally decided to kill off MSN Messenger for good, which means users in China - which is the last place where Messenger lives - will have to say goodbye to Microsoft’s famed messaging service for good.
Sapphire Glass. It sounds so lovely, doesn't it? And for the past few months, it's been used to talk-up the impending iPhone 6. But while Apple will no doubt wax poetic about this material upon the launch of its next-gen smartphone, the only way to tell if it's more than just a gimmick is to see how it holds up against the current Gorilla Glass, and now, a video of the stress test that everyone's been waiting on has emerged.
