It’s iOS 8 release day today! If you have a compatible device capable of installing and running iOS 8, then it's that time of the year again when you should be making a full backup, absorbing the release schedule in your territory and preparing yourself to enter the lottery that is progressing past Apple's authentication servers.
It was suggested in the build-up to the launch of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, particularly by analysts, that Apple's decision to increase the display real estate would prompt a surge in upgrades. The same reports also indicated that hordes of Android users would jump ship, and the 4+ million pre-orders of the Cupertino company's latest smartphone would appear to corroborate this notion. While, for existing iPhone users, the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus will seem familiar for the most part, those making the leap from Android mightn't be as seamless, and so, rather nobly, Apple has prepped a guide on how those switching allegiances can do so painlessly.

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.
Apple's iPhone 5s mightn't have brought many changes from an aesthetic standpoint, but in terms of hardware, the Cupertino based company really upped the ante.

Those loudspeakers on that smartphone you carry around just aren't very good at all. Yes, they'll do the job when you need to speak to someone hands-free, but when it comes to listening to music or a podcast, they just don't cut the mustard.
