I would like to write about some other brand but come on, one cannot pass on something like this XD.One miss Rita Schemeyev (I am sorry for mispronouncing the surname), 25, has recently died. Her father has buried his daughter in a cemetery in a town of Ufa. Mr. Schemeyev has made a somewhat controversial choice of tombstone, though, choosing to have one in shape of iPhone 6 be made. Right… the tombstone is a fairly accurate depiction of iPhone 6, too, down to the logo and the characteristic loudspeaker and camera combo on the upper bezel. Making of it cost, reportedly, around 104 ...

Smartphone store burglaries are nothing new; thieves often consider them easy marks due to the goods just laying out there, as well as for how easy it is to hide and transport stolen smartphones. Well, it seems that the Palo Alto thieves have become particulary brazen in their rigamorole, because they have robbed the Apple store there not once but twice in twelve hours. According to the Palo Alto Police Department (derpartment?), the store was first hit on 7pm, Saturday, when eight suspects took off with $57000 worth of demo iPhone models, iPhone Xs and Xs Max among them. Second hit took ...

Release of new and popular smartphones is the best time to showoff the most glaring and immediate of their shortcomings. This time some serious problems are troubling the newly released iPhone Xs, Xs Max and Xr devices. Shortly before their release Apple has told us that their data sending capabilities will be a few times stronger than these of iPhone X. Sadly, this boast seems to be untrue, if not for all then at least for many. A growing number of new iPhone owners report never achieving high connectivity capabilities with their smartphones; no matter where they are, their ...

The good news is that the 2x SIM version of the device is in the works; the bad news is that it will probably be exclusive to China. China Telecom has just published the render of the dual-SIM variant of the iPhone Xs (or Xs Max, the jury is still out on that one). Beta 5 of the iOS 12 allegedly supports this option. According to Bloomberg, iPhone Xs with dual-SIM will be available in countries other than China, but in very limited numbers. Tweet Vote on HN ...

Original article available at Jack Telecom. Long story short, Apple’s newest smartphone is here (or soon to be here, depending on your country). Naturally, the device had to be crash-tested. Its first test was committed accidentally – a happy owner from Hong-Kong had the misfortune of dropping his unit while trying to take some photos. The results are not pretty, as shown by the picture above. Strong curved glass did not survive the impact with the ground, shattering like its owner’s good mood. Apple’s claims of iPhone Xs sporting ”the strongest 4-curved ...

Tests performed by the ArsTechnica service confirm that the latest iOS improves the performance of old Apple devices. Tests have been performed on, among other devices, iPhones 5 and 6S Plus and an iPad 2 Mini. Results clearly show an increase in performance when based to iOS 10.3.3 and older Apple operating systems. For example, Safari browser takes up to 2 seconds to start on older operating systems, while it only takes 1.15 second on iOS 12. Camera takes similiarly shorter time to turn on with the iOS 12 than with its older versions. These are not large differences, but certainly enough ...

There is nothing like some Apple leaks in the morning. This time we have learned some details regarding the upcoming iPhone’s specs. The source of these leaks is unknown, though, so please do not take them as a 100% confirmed info.According to this unknown leakster, iPhone Xs and Xs Max will both have 4GB RAM, while iPhone Xr will have 3GB.

Just as a bazillion smartphones that are five and ten times cheaper than it, and ...

AirPower is an advanced charging device made by Apple. It’s main selling point was supposed to be being able to charge up to three different devices simultaneously. AirPower was first announced a year ago, with its release date being 2018. Well, it has been 365 days and the device is still not here. What is more, Apple has begun to quietly remove info regarding it from their website. Why? The reasons are explained by one Sonny Disckson. Long story short – technical difficulties: not only the charger is prone to overheating, likely due to lack of space between the charging coils, ...
