Sometimes an update is meant to just fix a relatively small thing, and not bring a whole suite of new features to the mix. Today is one of those days. Apple on Wednesday released a minor software update for iOS 15.1, which is designed to help reduce dropped calls in some iPhone models.
I can still remember when Dell had a "tablet" out there in the world with a screen somewhere around five inches. At the time it was mocked and panned because the company dared to use marketing material showing a person holding that device up to the side of their head to make a call. Dared, because at the time it really was ridiculous. But, of course, we all know how a phone with a screen around five inches is considered small by some people these days.
With the launch of iOS 15 and the iPhone 13 Pro, which includes support for macro photography, Apple made a bold decision. That was automatic switching, which could be pretty aggressive sometimes. That meant that some users were unable to avoid automatically switching to Macro mode for snapping a photo, even when they didn't want it. The good news, Apple was quick to fix it with the wide launch of iOS 15.1.
BookBook for iPhone 13 is here! That's right, Twelve South's best-selling leather case that resembles a vintage book is now available for Apple's latest smartphone models.
Back at the end of September of this year, the crew at iFixit put the iPhone 13 Pro through the teardown process. Along the way, they discovered quite a few changes Apple implemented in its newest smartphone lineup. Most of them good. However, one bad part was discovered in the screen repair process. The good news is Apple is going to address it.
The holiday shopping season is already kicking off for some folks, and some companies. Apple, for instance, has officially launched its holiday efforts for 2021, which includes a nice new addition to the offerings for customers who are looking to buy some new Apple-branded gear this holiday season.
Apple has shared a new experimental video that focuses on iPhone 13 camera tips and tricks you can use to recreate Hollywood movie scenes, like a car chase, at home.
Apple would very much like to keep tabs on the repair process for all of its devices. For some, that's a bonus because it means that the company who makes the devices can also fix them. And there are also authorized service providers if one can't make it to a physical Apple Store. However, some see it as a way for Apple to keep an iron grip on something it doesn't want out of its control. Both are probably true.
The global chip shortage has worsened and not even Apple is immune to this industry-wide supply chain problem. According to a new report, the Cupertino company has sharply cut back on iPad production and redirected certain tablet components to the latest iPhone 13 models in order to boost handset inventory and support holiday sales.
I was quick to pre-order the iPhone 13 Pro Max this year when Apple announced it, and in a recently-published post, I shared my top five reasons for moving forward with the upgrade.
I’ve been using an iPhone 13 Pro Max for a little over a month now, and that happened because I took full advantage of Apple’s trade-in program to trade up from last year’s iPhone 12 Pro Max.
iPhone production is taking a pretty big hit with the news that Apple might cut production targets for the latest iPhone 13 models by ten million units due to the current chip crunch.
