Samsung has used its Kapture The Moment event at The Red Dot Design Museum in Singapore to introduce its second camera-focused smartphone.
It was just yesterday when we got a glimpse of the updated 2014 MacBook Air specs, and today, as expected, said updates are upon us. And we have all the details right here.
From what we've managed to glean so far, the next-gen iPhone will be both larger and thinner than the current iPhone 5s, offering a substantially increased 4.7-inch display that goes edge-to-edge. But how much slimmer will the next model be than the current flagship? Well, according to a case mold of the so-called "iPhone 6," it will be around the same depth as the latest iPod touch, which, if you've held the device alongside an iPhone 5s, is quite a significant drop.
The legalities of the service may have been, shall we say, ambiguous, but Popcorn Time, the popular free movie downloading site, is back with a bang. With its original creators seemingly scared off by the threat of the copyright hammer, its source code was picked up last month and work has been progressing ever since. Now, an Android version of Popcorn Time is almost ready for general release, as confirmed by one of the developers behind the rebirth.
As I have mentioned on a number of occasions now, the jailbreak community cannot seem to get enough of lock screen-based tweaks, but while Cydia developers have been showcasing their creativity in bringing all-new features to the front gate of iOS, Stride 2 is a vast improvement on an old favorite, Stride for iOS. Simply put, this tweak takes the mundaneness out of unlocking your device by enabling you to set your very own, custom pattern, and developer Adam Bell has certainly put work in to ensure his two-year-old invention is in-keeping with the recent changes to the Apple software.
The Facebook Messenger app for iPhone has just been updated, adding a myriad of exciting new chat-related features. Those with an account on the world's foremost social network can now enjoy video sharing - a feature that has been eagerly-awaited by Facebookers far and wide. As well as that, photos and stickers will now load more quickly, and the company's development team has clearly been on its game to bring this version 5.0 update so soon after version 4.1's arrival only a couple of weeks back.
It's no secret that Apple is looking to greatly improve and revamp the in-store shopping experience for its customers, and iBeacon - Apple's proximity-based, Bluetooth LE-powered communication technology - is steadily becoming an integral part of this concerted push. As well as enhancing the engagement potential of the Apple Retail Store, iBeacon has a much broader scope, and a Japanese company by the name of Tzukuri has just announced a set of MFi spectacles that will embrace Apple's fledgling beacons system.
Whenever a new Android device surfaces, the first objective of the community is to gain root access, and that's exactly what Chainfire has managed to achieve with Samsung's forthcoming flagship, the Galaxy S5. Even though the handset itself is not scheduled to be released for two weeks, the Galaxy S5 has been successfully rooted.
Security isn't the kind of thing you should play fast and loose with, and the same goes for security online. In a day and age where we manage almost all of our lives on the Internet, having a computer, phone or tablet that's potentially open to mischievous entities is far from ideal, but that's the position users of Internet Explorers find themselves in today.
Some jailbreak tweaks like to scrape the surface, offering minor alterations to a certain function or UI element. Others, however, seek to rebuild a part of iOS from the ground up, and Convergance, a new entry to the ModMyi repository, completely re-imagines your iPhone's lock screen.
