Also: Why your Apple device might stop charging this winter In the newest iPad Air 5 lives the company’s tried-and-true M1 processor, a wider front-facing camera, and the hottest buzzword in tech: 5G. Theoretically, all three upgrades should make a difference in the day-to-day iPad experience. But if pricing impacts your buying decision, then the similarly-designed iPad Air 4 is just as worthy of your consideration and can be had for noticeably less money....

On the heels of Apple unveiling the iPhone 12 with 5G and other upgrades, a new analyst note from Barclays shares skepticism about Apple’s margins as well as a potentially lower average selling price (ASP). That’s led the firm to lower its AAPL target price substantially. While Apple has removed its EarPods and the charging adapter from being included the iPhone 12, Barclays’ conclusion is that those savings won’t cover the 5G, OLED, and storage upgrades and that Apple could see lower margins for this year’s iPhones....

Recently, Some reports on iPhone 14 display supply suggest from the 80 million OLED panels, Samsung Display will supply 38.17 million for iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus. Apple Might Introduce Battery Upgrade to iPhone 14, But Not to Pro Max iPhone 14 leaks and rumors have already proved that this lineup will get a lot of new changes after a long time, and also it facing many challenges like its display supply and production delay....

We ran three recent polls asking about your upgrade plans for the iPhone 6s/Plus, and now that pre-orders are well underway, we thought it would be interesting to summarize the results. First, we asked how many of you planned to upgrade to the iPhone 6s/Plus – and the results show it’s not surprising that pre-orders appear on course to set a new record. Among existing iPhone 6 owners, a surprisingly high 38% of you said that you planned to swap out your 1-year-old iPhone for the new model....

From the dawn of the smartphone to now, we’ve seen a transformation from mobile communication to truly a pocket computer. As apps became more sophisticated, we had something that allowed us to be notified of almost anything at any time. This obviously led to a problem where we couldn’t distinguish from a text message from our spouse or a breaking news alert from Yahoo Sports. As Apple continued to develop the iPhone, we got features like Do Not Disturb and Do Not Disturb While Driving....

For some Marvel fans, the Iron Man series feels like it happened a lifetime ago. Tony Stark has gone nowhere, of course, but his appearances have been in the Avengers movies and in the outings of other characters, such as Captain America: Civil War or Spider-Man: Homecoming. The Iron Man trilogy wrapped up five years ago and there have been no plans for another solo movie for the character since that time....

Early this year, we heard from a source that Apple had been testing multiple resolutions for the iPhone 6’s larger display, including a resolution of 960 x 1704. As we outlined, the benefit of that resolution is that it allows both developers and consumers to smoothly transition to the new display without losing high-quality imagery and graphics found in many applications from the App Store. At that density on both a 4....

Ever wonder what cameras Apple has used in its iPads over the years or what cameras your current iPad has? Follow on for a look at the complete iPad camera list for what camera system comes with every iPad model. iPad has had an interesting evolution over the years when it comes to cameras. Apple doesn’t focus as much on the tech specs of its cameras for marketing but spends more energy on helping customers know what they can do with them....

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4xNcF6T7Is] Sure, there are things like “terminal velocity” and the definition of “space” that are used a little loosely here, but it is still all kinds of awesome. The conventional definition of the beginning of space is 100 km above sea level, which is 328,084 feet. This is ‘just 100,000’ feet. As a G-Form Extreme Sleeve owner with an abusive toddler, I can attest that ours has survived about 100,000 feet of drop-age, albeit in 3-foot increments....

Apple released a new version of iPhoto for Mac, version 9.3.1, which fixes a slew of bugs, along with ”an issue that in rare cases could cause iPhoto to hang when upgrading libraries.” Interested? Go to the App Store to grab the 599.65 MB update. In the mean time, you can checkout the release notes after the break.

One of the most annoying things about Wi-Fi are those offered by big corporations. Local Starbucks or library have terrible cell reception? Join the Wi-Fi network. However, a separate location might have better or faster cell reception than what the Wi-Fi offers. This is when you’d typically just forget the network or turn off Wi-Fi entirely. Luckily, there’s a way around this by dialing what is known as Wi-Fi Auto-Join. What this does is only connect to that specific network when you go into Settings and tap it yourself....

The iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro officially went up for pre-order yesterday ahead of their September 20th launch day. Over the last 24 hours, supply of certain iPhone models has started to dwindle, but plenty of options still remain for day one delivery. The iPhone 11 Pro is far more supply constrained than the iPhone 11, but even here we’ve still got options for a September 20th delivery. As of this article, here’s how iPhone 11 Pro availability breaks down:...

After initially using the baseline iPhone 11 as my daily driver, I transitioned over to the iPhone 11 Pro Max in order to see if Apple’s top-of-the-line hardware was good enough to justify its price premium. As you’ll see in this hands-on iPhone 11 Pro review, I came away with a conclusion that largely mirrors last year’s efforts. Like last year, I think it’s wise for the majority of users to opt for the entry-level iPhone, as that device will more than meet the needs of most customers who are looking to upgrade....

Recently, a report from reliable Ming-Chi Kuo suggested that iPhone 14 front camera be upgraded because some new companies will supply it. Apple Might Still Use Display From BOE According to a market research agency, Omdia’s latest report (via ITHome), Apple might be planning to fit the latest LTPS and LTPO OLEDs from all old suppliers in the upcoming iPhone 14. The upcoming iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Plus, iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone 14 Pro Max OLEDs will be manufactured by BOE, Samsung, and LG Display....

We’ve seen iPhone 14 Pro renders before, based on simple CAD models and schematics, but now you can play with a 3D model, examining the Pro and Pro Max models from any angle. CAD creator Madmix has used the same schematic to create 3D models which can be viewed in a number of popular design apps … DuanRui, who seeks out Apple-related content on Chinese social media sites, provides some sample renders (below)....

iOS 5, iCloud – The Reasons For The Delayed Launch? Before explaining iPhone 4S’ detailed functions and other details regarding its launch, we must talk about iOS 5 and iCloud, the improved operating system and the cloud feature offered to iUsers. It seems that iCloud and iOS 5 are the main reasons for the iPhone 4S delayed launch. It makes sense when you think about it. The iCloud was announced at the WWDC in this June, but, obviously, Apple still had a lot of work to do with its servers....

An unusual iPhone 7 leak is making the rounds today, showing some changes that have not be seen before. An Italian case manufacturer is showing a potential chassis design that features ‘four speakers’ and new layout for the rear camera and flash, including a hole for a larger aperture (via NowhereElse). As pictured, there are two speaker grilles cut into the top of the case and another two grilles on the bottom side....

Korea’s biggest Mobile operator SK Telecom today announced they’d be carrying the iPhone. There is some question as to whether this is a CDMA phone or a GSM iPhone. SK Telecom’s Wikipedia entry says that it was the world’s first to commercialize HSDPA in May, 2006. However Macrumors and others note that the iPhones the models are holding are of the CDMA variety. Release follows: To begin pre-registrations on March 9 through online and offline retail stores To ensure high quality voice and data services on Korea’s most reliable mobile network, while providing excellent customer care iPhone 4 is the most innovative phone in the world, featuring Apple’s stunning Retina display, the highest resolution display ever built into a phone resulting in super crisp text, images and video, and FaceTime, which makes video calling a reality....

Millions of Brits who used an iPhone between June 2011 and February 2012 could receive as much as £500 ($672) each from Google as compensation for the search giant bypassing Safari privacy settings between those dates. A British campaign group has launched a ‘representative action’ (the UK equivalent of a class action lawsuit) on behalf of the 5.4M iPhone users in England and Wales affected by what is known as Google’s ‘Safari workaround....
