There has been an increasing amount of speculation and conjecture recently amongst technology analysts who claim that despite Apple's recent record-breaking earnings call the Cupertino company could be in long-term jeopardy due to its lack of recent innovation. That level of doom and gloom has largely been dismissed by the wider technology community but it has managed to plant the seed in our minds of what Apple could potentially be working on next.

We're smack bang in the middle of quarterly results season right now and with Apple announcing a record quarter that was backed up heavily by iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus sales all attention turned to Samsung to see what the Korean firm had to offer.
In a rush of achievement that many analysts had been predicting for some time now, Apple has risen to the top in China as the leading smartphone vendor in the gargantuan market.
Before Apple's earnings call tonight, we knew that the company was going to come through with the big numbers. The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus sold in monumentally high volumes during those first few weeks and months on sale, and the rampant shipments have certainly hindered rivals such as Samsung.

Xiaomi, the Chinese electronics company that has enjoyed a rapid rise to prominence, has been called out on numerous occasions for quite blatantly ripping off products of major brands, namely Apple.

A new tool that could potentially be used to gain access to an iCloud account, named iDict, has been stopped in its tracks after Apple beefed up its security.
Apple's security has been under the microscope on more than one occasion in recent times, none more high profile than the widespread leak of celebrity private images back in late August of last year.
