Which is faster? Well, obviously the iPhone 4S is faster, but you might be surprised at just how much faster.
In certain areas, namely gaming, the iPhone 4S blows the iPhone 4 out of the water. In other areas, the differences are surprisingly less discernable.
We've pitted the former heavyweight champ against the newcomer, and we've documented the results on video. Who wins? Watch and see...
It seems like giving your website a makeover is the thing to do these days. Hot on the heels of the Facebook changes we saw rollout last week, reports are coming in today that YouTube has some major plans to overhaul its site's appearance as well.
While you've likely already seen the new design on YouTube's webpage, the changes are now making their way into the mobile app. The new interface is a lot different than the previous design, and although it's still being tested, you can try it out today...
In case you were wondering if folks were done uncovering new features in iOS 5, think again. Out of the 200 new features Apple has added to iOS, I believe we are on like #70 or so.
The latest find comes from iDevice hackers @Chronic and @Sonny Dickson, who have managed to gain access to internal settings in iOS 5. Apparently the new iOS will not only offer FaceTime over 3G, but high quality YouTube playback as well...
Italian iDevice blog, iPhoneItalia, pointed to a new Cydia tweak this morning. After some handy Google Translating work, it appears that TCP optimizer is aimed at improving network throughput speeds.
This would improve performance of YouTube and other applications. Although I don't have any beef with the way YouTube is currently running, any tweak that advertises noticeable speed improvements is worth a shot...
Last week, we posted a video of an interview with Cydia's creator, Jay Freeman (saurik). The clip was about 6 minutes long, and consisted of saurik showing off many of his favorite tweaks and iOS extensions in response to the question, "Why should you jailbreak your iPhone?"
The video garnered a lot of attention. It was sort of surreal to see the guy who's devoted much of his life over the last several years to developing and maintaining Cydia explain why he loves jailbreaking so much. It seems like the video's popularity ultimately led to its demise...
Recently YouTube announced their plans to start broadcasting live content on a regular basis.
If you head over to youtube.com/live, you'll find a few live broadcasts, although the pickings are quite slim at the moment.
Still, there might be some of you who enjoy watching random fashion shows, and things of the nature.
Oddly enough, if you try to watch one of the live broadcasts from an iPhone, you'll be presented with a friendly note informing you that streaming is not available on mobile devices. What to do then?
Every time there is an update in the iPhone's operating system the leaks start pouring in when the betas start getting passed out. This time with 4.2 it is no different. An improvement or adjustment I took notice in was the supposed tweaks to the YouTube experience and CoreMIDI support.
iLounge reports that the YouTube additions start and (apparently) end with adding of "Like" and "Dislike" buttons. If this is true it obviously offers no solace to those who've fallen in love with jailbreak app, YourTube 2...
The release of iOS 4.1 will come next week sometime but Gizmodo has gotten ahold of some screenshots that show off the new operating system's fanciest feature. As Steve Jobs announced today the new OS will enable high dynamic range photography, otherwise known as HDR.
For those who are unaware of the premise behind HDR, the feature takes multiple images to create a more colorful splash and sensation for the final product. Whether your a highly tuned photographer or just like snapping shots with your iPhone you'll be able to experience the benefits of having such an ability within your native camera app...
TUAW recently unveiled a product design by Griffin that could change the way you think about gaming on the iPhone or iPad. The FCC has released the exciting filing that would allow up to 4 people to simultaneously play in an individual setting. Sounds cool, right?
Griffin will send 4 games along with the PartyDock that will will include party, family and casual styles of entertainment. The games will be available in the App Store and would be designed to be ran specifically with aforementioned platform. Head over to the product site for additional info including development.
Apple is infamous for creating amazing devices that have one too many steps involved in utilizing them fully. The video camera on the iPhone 4 is a great example of this. Uploading HD video to YouTube was a hassle to master. Not anymore because 720tube lets you do just that.
You choose your video from your camera roll and login to YouTube both from within the app. Then just add a title, description and other information about the clip like you normally would. Upload and enjoy...
