Oliver Haslam ∙ Updated January 24, 2016

Apple's iPhone 4S just keeps on rocking. After garnering stellar sales worldwide and being met with great reviews, a new survey suggests that the people who spend their own money on an iPhone 4S are also pretty happy.

The survey, conducted by ChangeWave, took in the views of 215 iPhone 4S owners between November 2nd and 9th, with 96% of those questioned saying that they were satisfied with their new smartphone.

The news gets better, with 77% of those surveyed saying that they are "very satisfied" with the iPhone 4S. When combined with the 19% who were simply "somewhat satisfied," they make the iPhone 4S the most loved iPhone ever...

Printstagram Takes Instagram Photos and Turns Them into Pictures, Books, and More

Oliver Haslam ∙ Updated March 18, 2019

Instagram is definitely in danger of taking over the world. What started out as a neat little app for taking and sharing stylised photographs on an iPhone has ballooned into something more than we could ever imagine. But wouldn't it be awesome to get those great photos off of your iPhone and into the real world?

Bursting out of the digital realm and into the analog one is something that Instagram photos have done before. Not that long ago we told you about an art gallery that was opening in London. The gallery was going to be showing Instagram photos, and only Instagram photos. If you ever wondered what it would look like to take an iOS app and blow it right up, then this is perfect example. Well, this and Angry Birds.

Now you can take your Instagram photos and have them made into all manner of photographic keepsakes, and we have to say that they look pretty impressive...

Infinity Blade 2 Starting to Hit the App Store, Here’s What People Are Saying

Oliver Haslam ∙ Updated January 27, 2019

Infinity Blade was one of the first real games to hit iOS. Yes, Angry Birds and Flight Control had come before, but those type of games could never be called an epic adventure full of swords and things to swing said swords at.

When the Infinity Blade creators, Epic, originally showed the game off on an iPhone 4, it looked gorgeous. The sequel goes one or two steps further, and if you're playing the game on an iPhone 4S or iPad 2 then you're in for a real treat.

Some lucky folks have been playing Infinity Blade 2 for a while now, and they've gone and shared their opinions with us, the people of the internet. Here's a quick roundup of what people are saying...

Cody Lee ∙ November 29, 2011

Judging by recent events, Apple's iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch may be more popular than ever before. Not only did it record its biggest sales day ever during Black Friday last week, but it was also among the top 5 most visited retail chains.

In fact, you don't have to look any further than Best Buy's recent holiday commercial to gauge the level of the company's popularity. The retailer has been an authorized Apple dealer for years, and it wants to make sure everyone knows that this holiday season...

How to Experience Windows Phone 7 on Your iPhone

Cody Lee ∙ November 29, 2011

Between being nearly three years behind the competition and trying to erase consumers' bad memories of previous devices, Microsoft has its work cut out for it with Windows Phone 7. The platform recently fell below 2% in overall smartphone marketshare.

The Redmond company has come up with a pretty interesting marketing ploy to attract iOS and Android users to its mobile OS: an interactive website. The page fully immerses visitors in Windows Phone's Metro UI, and here's how you can access it...

RIM to Offer Enterprise Tools for iPhone and Android

Oliver Haslam ∙ Updated March 9, 2016

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. That's the approach BlackBerry maker Research In Motion is taking with its ailing smartphone market. The company has announced that it will be offering an easy way to get iPhones and Android users plugged into its enterprise tools.

The move by the once-dominant force in the business smartphone industry illustrates the relevance that Apple and Google have made in a sector that was almost entirely owned by RIM not that long ago.

Perhaps more importantly, this may well be the first sign of RIM trying to move away from offering hardware, in an attempt to concentrate on the software and security their past successes were built on.
