Despite record sales of 5 million units for the iPhone 5’s debut weekend, Apple is apparently facing shortages that, according to analysts, kept the company from selling as many as 8 million to 10 million new iPhones at launch. According to reports from earlier today, Apple’s new in-cell display technology is likely to blame, with suppliers LG, Japan Display, and Sharp having difficulties meeting demand. Both retailers in the U.S. and Apple already confirmed that initial supplies are sold out, while pre-orders are being pushed to an unknown date in October....

French site iGen has posted what it claims are screenshots from Foxconn, which – if genuine – confirm a number of details from earlier reports, and to reveal the dimensions of prototypes of both iPhone 6 models. The screenshots appear to be fuller versions of the raised camera schematic posted by Apple Club Taiwan a couple of days ago. It should be noted that there is no way to know when these prototypes were created (though some photos appear to date back to February), and that dimensions of the production model could change....

Despite the unique circumstances presented by being in the midst of a global pandemic, Apple had one of its busiest, and arguably most productive years in recent memory. In this hands-on video, I take a look back at my favorite Apple hardware releases of 2020. Magic Keyboard for iPad It seems like forever ago, but back in the spring of 2020, Apple released the highly-anticipated Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro. Of course, it wasn’t just a keyboard, but a full input utility that also incorporated a trackpad....

There’s unlikely to be any drama when Apple reveals its fiscal Q3 (calendar Q2) earnings later today. Analyst expectations are for the company to deliver within the revenue range promised in its guidance three months earlier. The only question is whether it will be at the high end or somewhere in the middle. The numbers everyone are waiting to hear are Apple’s revenue guidance for fiscal Q4: calendar months July to September....

I’m personally still very happy with my ultra-pocketable iPhone SE so I have no plans to buy the iPhone 7, but with Apple touting a brave new wireless future, I thought the launch would make an opportune moment to decide whether or not it was time for me to make the switch from a wired world. Those who know me are often surprised to find that I wasn’t one of the first to switch to wireless headphones....

Following the release of the Apple Watch Series 2, I wrote about my initial first impressions of the device. Essentially, I explained that the first-generation Apple Watch had never truly won me over. I often went through phases where I would wear it for a while, but then go weeks without even charging it. I noted, however, that the Series 2 model may have righted enough wrongs to keep it on my wrist…consistently....

It’s now seven years since Steve Jobs wrote his famous Thoughts on Flash open letter, in which he explained to Adobe the six reasons why Apple did not allow Flash on iOS devices. These reasons were, in brief: It’s a proprietary product, and Apple prefers open web standards [sometimes] An increasing number of websites are switching to better video formats Flash has poor security, reliability and performance Flash decreases battery life Flash was designed for desktop, not touch It’s an additional layer that holds back innovation Most of those reasons are just as valid today, security not least among them …...

I noted a few weeks ago that, given the ultra-low repairability of the new MacBook Pro, I was buying AppleCare for the first time. Pretty much anything going wrong with the machine – RAM, SSD, Touch Bar, even the power switch – is likely to require a whole new motherboard. And given that the screen is bonded into the lid of the case, we can also forget about repairing that....

One of the common sayings is “Action express priorities in Life”. It’s true that certain things are prior for us at many stages and we often fail to meet our deadlines on them.

It has several benefits for us and the fact couldn’t be denied that smartphones have loaded all the phases of our life with a ton of comfort....

I recently had the incredible experience of attending a SpaceX rocket launch at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. NASA Social hosted the event that included close-up access to NASA’s massive Vehicle Assembly Building, the historic 39B launch pad, and an awesome view of a Falcon 9 rocket launch. Below are some of my favorite shots captured on the iPhone 11 Pro Max. Some of these required the new ultra-wide camera to fully capture the scene....

There is an astonishing sea change beginning I think in how we all interact. Now, I’m not pretending to be an expert in social psychology. But it is clear that despite all the glitches there is an unprecedented level of global cooperation going on. Usually, wars have two human sides. In this one, there is all humanity versus a virus. So, I’ll say it again: Unprecedented. I’m going to institute some regular features and some random things every week....

Dragon Ball Z always seemed strict with the alignments of their characters. Always black and white, good guy versus bad guys, or simply The Z Fighters versus those looking to destroy the world. If you’re a part of the team you immediately adjust to be a good guy and follow Goku’s lead. However, it’s not always that simple, when character personalities aren’t getting nixed for the greater good you can find gray areas of alignments in Dragon Ball Z....

Terminator: Dark Fate finally admitted the biggest secret of the entire Terminator franchise: that John Connor isn’t the real hero; Sarah is. 2019’s Terminator: Dark Fate was more or less a hard reset for the franchise. It writes off a good portion of the films in the series while making a few much needed retcons in the name of continuity. None appear more controversial to die-hard fans than the changes made to John Connor and his relevancy to the story, which for this film were tossed by the wayside....
