This is pretty interesting. It looks like Apple has posted up the full schematics for the iPhone 5 on its developer website. Even if you're not a dev, you can find them in the Resources section.
Essentially, these are the blueprints for Apple's new smartphone. And they give accessory and case makers dimensions for everything from the ringer switch to the home button...
The iPhone 5, though some will argue that it looks similar, is a major departure from its predecessor. It has a larger screen, upgraded internals, and a new unibody design.
And as it turns out, that design could spell trouble for aftermarket back panels. Because instead of a single piece of glass — like on the iPhone 4 and 4S, you have this part-aluminum, part-glass back panel directly attached to internal components....
Amidst all of the iPhone 5 excitement around here, we almost forgot to mention that Subatomic Studios released Fieldrunners 2 HD for the iPad last night.
The long-awaited sequel to the popular tower defense game hit the iPhone back in July, and now it's available for Apple's tablet with Retina graphics in tow...
US ITC Judge James Gildea has ruled today that Apple's products did not violate Samsung's patents. This is the second US victory for Apple over Samsung in the last month.
Samsung originally filed the complaint with the International Trade Commission back in June of last year, complaining that Apple mobile devices violated four of its patents...
Earlier in the week we reported that, due to LTE fragmentation, Apple was forced to make three different versions of the iPhone 5. A CDMA handset, and two GSM models, one specifically for AT&T.
As it turns out, there's something weird about the AT&T model. It's been recently discovered, via leaked FCC documentation, that it supports LTE on two unlisted bands, cellular and PCS..
Among the many changes found in the iPhone 5 is the new Lightning dock connector. For months we've been expecting Apple to replace the aging 30-pin port in its new handset, and it did.
The change has caused a bit of controversy, because folks don't understand why it was necessary, and they don't know why Apple didn't go with the more popular Micro USB connector.
As it turns out, Micro USB isn't smart enough...
More details have come to light today regarding Apple's new Lightning connector and its capabilities. It seems it will be capable of wired video output after all.
Previously, folks were worried that it wouldn't support video out, due to the fact that the Lightning to 30-pin adapter doesn't. But Apple just confirmed it will...
Well, they were a little late, but Apple is now taking pre-orders for the iPhone 5. If you live in one of the initial launch countries, you should be able to log into Apple's website and snag a handset.
Hopefully, the company has planned ahead this time for the influx in traffic, and we won't have to spend forever trying to place our orders. Last year it took me 2 hours to pre-order the iPhone 4S...
We're t-minus three hours and counting until the iPhone 5 pre-orders begin, and some new information regarding model availability and pricing has just come to light.
According to several Apple customer service representatives, unlocked models of the iPhone 5 will not be available for tonight's pre-order or even next week's launch...
Remember back in July when we told you about the new updates coming to iCloud? We went hands-on with the beta, which included new apps and other improvements.
Well this afternoon, Apple pushed the update to the public version of the iCloud web portal. So if you go to iCloud.com and login, you should see the new additions...
Remember back when Verizon first launched the iPhone 4? AT&T, whose network was struggling at the time, launched a campaign highlighting the fact that AT&T users could talk and browse the web at the same time, and Verizon users couldn't.
Over time, the problem faded into the background. And since Verizon's LTE network — which is now in nearly 400 markets — supports simultaneous voice and data, we didn't think it'd be a problem with the iPhone 5. But apparently, we were wrong...
Hot on the heels of their big victory against Samsung here in the United States, Apple's legal team has just won another important decision against Motorola in Munich, German.
The German court has just awarded the Cupertino company a preliminary sales ban against Motorola's phones and tablets in the country, ruling that they infringe on Apple's patents...
