It appears that any hope left of Apple unveiling a totally redesigned handset next week just floated out the window. As it has done several times, 9to5Mac just uncovered some juicy information hidden within Apple's software.
The find comes from the latest version of iTunes beta, which Apple seeded to developers yesterday afternoon. The music software references two new models of Apple's smartphone, the black iPhone 4S and the white iPhone 4S...
Mashable posted an article yesterday that tells an interesting story about the relationship between Apple and Facebook. Although the two companies are expected to make a joint announcement next Tuesday, things haven't always been peachy.
This is perhaps most obvious in the noticeable absence of a native Facebook app for Apple's tablet. Facebook's iPad app has reportedly been ready for several months, but we've yet to see an official release. Before his retirement, Steve Jobs was personally involved in negotiations with Facebook...
Apple's iPhone event is just a few days away, and after months of rumors, we're still unsure of what to expect. Since March, there has been speculation that the Cupertino company would be unveiling multiple handsets this year.
Over the last few weeks, the two-phone theory has largely dropped out of the conversation. A majority of the tech world now seems to think that we'll only see one iPhone model next week: the 4S. But what about all of these iPhone 5 cases still floating around?
If you haven't figured it out by now, there's more to iOS 5 than meets the eye. Since the new software was unveiled in June, Apple has been holding some of its best features close to the vest as it fine-tunes them to perfection.
One of those top secret features is a system-wide utility known as Assistant. The voice-activated digital concierge can do anything from sending text messages to performing internet searches. Want to see how it could work?
Even though the evidence keeps stacking in favor of an iPhone 4S-only event next Tuesday, we're still holding out hope for a second model. After 15 months of waiting, it'd be nice to see something that would completely blow us away.
But would an iPhone 4S really be that bad? I mean, it is supposed to have a faster processor (the A5) and a better camera. And there have been rumors of a larger, edge-to-edge display. But what would it all look like? Perhaps something like this...
It looks like Apple's next smartphone isn't the only product unveiling set for next Tuesday. 2K Sports is set to unleash the latest version of its basketball game for the iOS platform next week.
NBA2K12 contains all of the usual components of a typical basketball game. You can choose from both quick play and full season modes, and it even works with Game Center. But the coolest part of the game has to be...
For those of you who aren't familiar with Shazam, it's a music identification service that can tell you song information just by hearing a sample of the music. The service has followed the smartphone's rise to popularity with multiple successful mobile apps.
In fact, Shazam was the first song I.D. app I downloaded when Apple launched the App Store in 2008. It worked great and even more importantly, it was free. You could tag as many songs as you wanted and it didn't cost a dime. But then things changed...
With Apple's iPhone event just 5 days away, everyone is trying to get in their last minute predictions. While it seems like pundits agree on most of the device's features, there is one detail that still remains a mystery — data connectivity.
Even though evidence surfaced last month that Apple was testing LTE-capable devices, it doesn't seem likely that the upcoming smartphone will house the technology. But that doesn't mean that the next iPhone won't be "4G..."
Most of you know by now that Apple and Samsung are in a grueling court battle. Back in April the Cupertino company filed a lawsuit against Samsung for violating its "trade dress," or in layman's terms, blatantly copying its device designs.
The ongoing litigation has resulted in a temporary ban of Samsung's Galaxy Tab and other devices in multiple countries, and the two companies are about to square off here in the US. Judging by this new "evidence," I'd say Apple has the upper hand...
The entire web was set 'on fire' this morning by Amazon's tablet announcement (no pun intended). After months and months of rumors, the online retailer finally unveiled its Android slate: the Kindle Fire.
Sure, the tablet may be one of the best Android-based offerings we've ever seen, but it's still no iPad. However, there is one thing that I believe the Cupertino company could learn from Amazon and its new device...
Old-school Mac gamers rejoice! Word on the street is that Glider will soon be making its way to iOS. For those who aren't familiar with the title, the classic 2D scroller has been entertaining Mac users since 1988.
Due to low funding, the developer John Calhoun pulled the plug on the series in 1991. Now, after a 16 year stint in Cupertino as an Apple programmer, Calhoun says he's ready to jump back into the gaming industry...
We are still trying to piece together some sort of picture of what Apple will be unveiling next week. The Cupertino company has done a pretty good job so far of keeping its Fall plans a secret. The stuff we think we know at this point is only based on speculation.
9to5Mac added some more pieces to the puzzle this morning by reporting that 5 new products have turned up in Apple's inventory. The first three devices appear to be new iPod touches, and the other two? Well, the other two are new iPhone models...
