According to the leak, which first emerged on Chinese website Weibo, iPhone SE 2017 will be released soon. While the exact reasons and ground for this statement are unknown to us, what we can see is the above picture of the device on top of some paperwork. Rumour is, the backpanel of the phone will be made of an Ion-X glass, the same kind of material that Apple Watch Sport was covered with. Unfortunately, this is where the news end. The phone will probably be a mid-ranger, since the flagship angle is to be covered by an iPhone ...

Hold on, don’t go jumping off the window. It is just a rumour, one that may or may not be true. Still… Deutsche Bank (what do they know about phones? Or am I missing something)’s analysts seem to think that iPhone 8 will not get released this year. The reason is that Apple lacks the neccessary amount of components to mass produce the device right now, plus it is said there are some technical difficulties with the device’s development. Foxconn seems to share that point of fiew. At the same time, though, TRENDFORCE believes that we will be seeing iPhone 8 getting ...

Benjamin Gaskin has released on Tweeter what he calls schematics for the upcoming iPhone 8 smartphone. The sketch features a few interesting points whith collerate nicely with what we already heard: yes, there is a dual lens camera, with centered flash indeed; most other elements, like earpiece speaker and sensor, are placed exacly where we thought it will be. One thing, though, is missing; rear-mounted Touch ID is missing from the phone.Cool, uncool? Tweet Vote on HN ...

Have I got your attention? Clarification – the guy was alive when his iPhone gave him a burn, and he is still alive. No one has died. Okay? Okay. Luke Schillab, USA, was unlucky enough to jump into the swimming pool with his iPhone 6 in pocket. The phone, of course, died. When Schillab realised what happened, he tried an old home remedy of putting the wet phone into the bag of rice, counting on the rice to absorb the water. When a few hours passed and the phone was still not responding, Schillab gave up. He put the phone on the bed (as later stated, he did it by a force of habit) and ...

A bit of news on the iPhone’s upcoming flagship have appeard on Mac Otakara, japanese all-Mac blogsite. Supposedly, iPhone 8 have passed the design verification testing phase and is now entering into an engineering validation testing, which means that the device is almost complete.

Weibo, chinese version of Twitter, is a good source of smartphone leaks and news. Today, a tasty leak has been uploaded on the website – a picture of a drawing that presumably presents an iPhone 8. If not a fabrication, this is the first real example of how will the device look like. Of course, it can be fake, but lets remember that this is the same way in which iPhone 7 was leaked to us a year ago.That’s all nice and dandy, but lets take a look at the picture itself. What does it show us?– changed arrangement of the dual camera. This time the lens are set not across but ...

Long story short, Apple has cut ties with Imagination Technologies, a British chip designer that worked on the PowerVR graphics processors. Imagination Technologies’ has stated that it is so, because Apple is „working on a separate, independent graphics design in order to control its products and will be reducing its future reliance on Imagination’s technology”. Too bad for the Brits, since their work for Apple generated half of their income. For us, though, it is interesting news, as it might mean that Apple will be cooking up its very own CPU and GPU – or ...

And the Darwin award goes to… I am sorry, I know that a man’s death should not be taken lightly, but I think many of us will agree that, in this particular case, an exception can be made. One Richard Bull, Great Britain, was using his iPhone while taking a bath. Mr. Bull decided that it will be a good idea to plug his device into the power outlet, so that it can charge while he bathes. It is a shame, then, that he did not take into consideration a fact that putting a wired charger on his chest while dipping in the water is a dangerous idea. Unfortunately, the worst happened and ...

According to the latest rumour, the upcoming iPhone 8’s case is supposed to be a thermal glass one, made by the Biel Cristal company. Cool? The main feature of such case would be allowing the phone to utilise inductive charging. If this turns out to be true, iPhone 8 will be the first Apple device to implement this technology. Say what you say, but Apple most certainly wants iPhone 8 to be full of modern tech. Tweet Vote on HN ...
