Sprint to launch LTE network on July 15th in five cities

Even though Sprint finally became an iPhone partner last fall, the carrier was snubbed this year when Apple unveiled its LTE iPad for Verizon and AT&T. The move made sense though, considering Sprint doesn't have an LTE network.

But the company is looking to change that in the near future. Earlier today, Sprint announced that it is finally prepared to flip the switch on its 4G LTE network, starting with five cities, on July 15th...

Five years of iPhone in numbers

This coming Friday marks the fifth anniversary of Apple's iPhone, the device that turned the mobile industry upside down. Today, the iPhone is bigger than most companies on the planet and no, I'm not exaggerating. The phone rakes in an astounding $25 billion of revenue per quarter for a run rate of a staggering $100 billion a year...

Infinity Blade is Epic’s most lucrative game ever

According to Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney, the iOS-exclusive Infinity Blade series is his company's most profitable game ever. And for the sake of meme completeness, Infinity Blade is more profitable than Epic Games' Gears of War, a lucrative military sci-fi shooter franchise for the Xbox and Windows platforms. Which is saying a lot considering Gears of War cost $10 million to develop...

Future versions of iOS could have simulated 3D UI

One of the main complaints I get about iOS is that it's getting boring (these people are obviously not jailbreaking). And to be fair, the platform hasn't really changed much since it was introduced back in 2007.

But maybe Apple's finally looking to switch things up. We've already seen some cool new tweaks in iOS 6, like the auto-tilting sliders. And now the word is, we could be in for some even bigger UI changes...

Jailbreakers who use the popular WhatsApp messenger will be happy to hear that Delicious, the folks behind biteSMS, have just released a handy new tweak for the client.

Quick Reply for WhatsApp hit Cydia today. And as you may have guessed, it enables you to quickly reply to incoming WhatsApp messages from anywhere in iOS...

iPhone no longer Verizon’s bestselling smartphone

Since the iPhone launched on Verizon's network last year, the handset has been the carrier's most popular smartphone. Most quarters it's even sold better than all Android devices combined.

But it looks like things are starting to shift at Big Red, as a new report suggests that the iPhone is no longer the wireless provider's bestselling device. What is? Motorola's Droid RAZR MAXX...

Sprint iPhone sells better at carrier-agnostic retailers than Apple Stores

Apple's iPhone sales in the United States have traditionally been strong at Apple Stores, likely due to the superior buying experience.

A new research has revealed a little known fact, that customers pick up a Sprint version of the device at carrier-agnostic retailers more often than at Apple's retail outlets.

It's got lots to do with high retention rates for rivals AT&T and Verizon resulting in little switching and Sprint just not having enough existing customers to walk through the door...

SportsYapper: finally, a social network for sports fans

Watching sports — even for the most diehard enthusiast — is always more fun with fellow fans around. You can talk coaching decisions, argue over penalties, and relive highlight plays. But what do you do if no one's around?

Take to Twitter is the obvious answer. But it's tough to keep a conversation going with other sports fans in between non-sports tweets, in 140 character increments. So the folks at Yapp Media came up with SportsYapper...

How to enable Passbook in iOS 6

One of the more intriguing iOS 6 features that Apple announced at WWDC was the new Passbook application. The app is essentially Apple's first go at a digital wallet.

But unfortunately, Passbook is broken in the developer beta — it's just a splash screen. So there's no way to play with it. That is, unless you follow these few easy steps...

Facebook Pages Manager gets messaging, check-in Insights, tweaked notifications

Facebook rolled out its Pages Manager app for the iPhone a little over a month ago. It initially came with a number of features to give folks the ability to post updates and photos on the go as your Facebook Page.

It also lets you get notifications on new activity, view Page Insights and respond, post and comment as your Page.

Today, the first official update has landed on the App Store, bringing with it a few noteworthy enhancements missing from the original release...
