It may be unadulterated chaos at times, but there's little doubt that iPhone announcement weeks are some of the most exciting and interesting that we face. A culmination of weeks and often months of guessing, calculating and wishing always comes down to one glorious moment when we get to see a new iPhone for the first time.
Developer Winocm has successfully managed to jailbreak iOS 6.1.4 on both CDMA and GSM version of iPhone 5. Details as usual are scarce at this very moment, it is highly recommended that you ignore any update at this point for your iOS device and wait for further confirmation on the progress being made on this untethered jailbreak for 6.1.4.
We are now less than 72 hours away from the iPhone 5S and 5C announcement, and while it's understandable that all the fuss will no doubt be about the new flagship handset coming out of Cupertino, it's arguable that the most interesting device that we expect to be announced on Monday is the new budget iPhone.
As most of you will know by now, the next version of Android is to be called KitKat, and the maker of the popular sweet snack has just unwrapped its contest as part of the promotional collaboration. Hitherto, the landing page has simply displayed a KitKat themed page, but now, the competition is very much up and running. With one thousand Nexus 7 2013 tablets to be won, and a plethora of other prizes including Google Play Store credit and KitKats, it's definitely not a competition to be missed.
Users of iPhones come in all shapes and sizes, but when you find a proper hardcore fan of Apple's smartphone then the chances are pretty good that they're also rather keen on a spot of science fiction. We'd have to count ourselves firmly in that category, and we'd definitely argue that it's no bad thing.
Apple TV, once described by Tim Cook as a "hobby" to the Cupertino company, hasn't seen a great deal of change in its lifespan, but with quite a few services having been added recently including the likes of VEVO, Disney Channel and others, and with iTunes Radio already confirmed for it, it's certainly as rich in available content as it ever has been. With a big event confirmed for September 10th, some had hoped that Apple would be bringing some new hardware in its gradual growth push in the TV market, but it now seems certain that this will not be the case. There will, however, be a handsome software update, with a couple of interesting features. Details after the break!
The hype surrounding the Google Nexus 5 is pretty immense right now, and after a recently-leaked images, Redit user Vovicon has upped a bunch of rather beautiful renderings. Maintaining a similar look to the Nexus 4 - a device manufactured by LG as the next one will be - it brings a slicker general aesthetic than its would-be predecessor, and although we'll need to wait for the device's official unveiling before we get too excited, the renderings are definitely worth checking out after the break.
Apple's iPhone announcements tend to follow a very specific script, and with September 10th the confirmed date for the official unveiling of the two new handsets in store, we're likely to see the familiar sequence of events. Tim Cook will make the announcement, before Phil Schiller and others begin reeling off a bunch of reasons why the newer model "changes everything, again." To mark the occasion, a new parody video is doing the rounds, and pokes a little fun at the Cupertino company for its archetypal ways. Check it out after the break!
Xbox One is one device that isn’t just for gaming, and the company is out to prove that in full force. The newest gaming console from the Redmond company has been touted several times as a multi-purpose home entertainment system - something that you would frequently use for more than just gaming - and the company’s latest ad for Xbox One takes that fact even further. This time, Microsoft is targeting National Football League (NFL) fans directly, showing off Microsoft’s Fantasy Football system for the Xbox One and more.
If you’ve ever used a Samsung Galaxy device, more specifically a Galaxy S4 in this case, then you’re probably aware of S View. If your device supports a flip-style magnetic cover, then you can get that very same feature on your Android device right now.
