Even though the iPhone 5 has only hit shelves a few months ago, Apple is for sure already looking a few generations ahead and getting ready to introduce the next iPhone model. We likely won’t hear a word from the Cupertino company for some long months, but it’s never too soon to start speculating.
iOS 6 Jailbreak For iPhone 5 Untethered Is Ready On iOS 6.0.2, Still Needs Some Work Done On iOS 6.1
Our readers here at Redmond Pie should know by now that we love everything associated with the legitimate side of iOS jailbreaking. Although we have historically had some exceptionally talented development teams working in the community to find exploits in Apple's iOS and produce fully working jailbreaks from them, it's hard to deny that things have seemed a little stale of late. For those that never lost the faith it seems that your positivity was well placed with legendary developer Planetbeing taking to Reddit to provide a little more insight on the current status of that elusive iOS 6 jailbreak for iPhone 5 and other devices.
Here at Redmond Pie we always love to see companies pumping resources into research and development of their own products, with the end goal of; evolving and providing a better solution to the end-consumer. We love it even more when that commitment to quality directly affects us and the products that we use, which is why we are extremely excited about the announcement from Corning regarding the third iteration of their widely used Gorilla Glass. Corning's Gorilla Glass 3 has been dramatically improved in all aspects, with the company intending to show off the product at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas next week.
Facebook's Messenger started out as an MSN-like instant-messaging service, but has since evolved into an all-singing, all-dancing service complete with its very own app. When it broke away from the official Facebook mobile app, some questioned the necessity of two separate entities, but as Zuck and his merry men have continued to pile on the features, it has become very clear that Messenger is worthy of its lone identity. Today, the popular app for iOS and Android have been updated with even more goodies, such as thee ability to send out voice messages, as well as call friends free of charge.
With three months having passed since the release of the iPhone 5, we've just about reached a period we can deem acceptable to begin talking of its successor. The rumors have gathered a great deal of this past week, with various analysts chiming into the argument with predictions of multiple color configurations and multiple screen sizes. Sticking with the theme of display alterations, the latest whispers suggest Apple will scrap the recently-implemented in-cell touch technology instead favoring a new “touch-on-display” technology created by Chimei Innolux.
In terms of inputting information into our mobile devices, gaming and typing are two of the activities we tend to do - to varying degrees - on a daily basis. Game developers have done a stellar job in adapting so quickly to the touch-based interface, but when it comes to accuracy - as well as full-screen gaming enjoyment - a physical controller is still the way forward. As far as the iPhone is concerned, there are plenty of third-party gaming controllers on the market, but the Ex Hybrid Controller for iPhone from iPhone5mod is unique and looks fantastic.
The biggest names in the financial industry tend to have no qualms with delivering projection where Apple is concerned, which is, I suppose, only natural given the Cupertino's status as the most valuable company. Corroborating predictions made by Jeffries analyst Peter Misek last month, in which he indicated 6-8 different color options with the next-generation iPhone, Topeka Capital Markets analyst Brian White also thinks Apple may offer different screen sizes of its iconic handset.
After a relatively slow start, cases and shells for the iPhone 5 are arriving at a rate of knots, and if you’re in the market for a protective bubble for your new Apple smartphone, we’ll be taking a look at a variety of them here at Redmond Pie. Today, we’re going to be scrutinizing two particular offerings from a well-known Palo Alto company by the name of Speck.
The iPhone 5 and iOS 6 may only be three months old, but as we know, companies tend to get straight to work on the successor to any new release. So it should come as no surprise, then, to learn that developers have spotted signs of a handset named ‘iPhone6,1′ running on iOS 7, and according to the developers whom spotted the activity, this is the first time the new iPhone has shown any trace of existence.
Apple's 'Do Not Disturb' feature may be one of the smaller functionality enhancements of iOS 6, but it has definitely proved to be really popular amongst the masses. The privacy based addition allows users to give themselves some peace of mind by disabling incoming notifications and phone calls and set filters accordingly. It seems that a number of users will be getting a lot more peace and quiet than they bargained for this New Year's morning, due to an intermittent bug that prevents Do Not Disturb from disabling itself at the specified time.
