This week's big tech headline came on Thursday, as it was revealed that Beats Electronics was to be acquired by Apple for a upward of $3 billion. Not only does it represent the Cupertino's costliest purchase in its history, but it's also the first time that Apple has moved in for a high-profile, well-known commercial entity, and its a move that will also render Beats' two most influential figures - Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine - members of Apple's executive team.

With the iPhone 6 just around the corner - well, almost - people could be forgiven for forgetting that the current iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c are still very much available to buy.

If you've got an old iPhone to trade in too, now's the time to get yourself down to an Apple Store.
Executives constantly jump ship between some of the biggest names in tech, and today, Nokia's former photography lead Ari Partinen has joined Apple in a move that will doubtlessly help to improve the point-and-shoot credentials of the iPhone and iOS device range in general.

As far as the flagship handset was concerned, the introduction of slow-mo video capture was considered among the highlights, but even though Apple clearly worked hard to improve the stock Camera utility, there's still plenty of room for improvement. quickCam, a tweak just released in Cydia, is perhaps the most enhancing feature we've seen, allowing you to preview and take snaps and videos without having leave the current app.
We've seen plenty of dummy leaks regarding the iPhone 6 of late, and today, we've finally got a side-by-side of each purported color configuration. The authenticity of this particular leak is some what questionable, and given that each variant has the same gold trim around the Home button, it's almost certainly not indicative of the finished article.
