Apple releases at least one new iPhone every year, and the coverage has become predictable: reviews (accurately) herald “the best iPhone yet,” typically based on “small but important changes that refine the user experience.” Based on everything we know about the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus, you can expect the same narrative again this year — starting with the obligatory sigh of similarity that precedes the review of every S model, and ending with the common recommendation to “go buy one unless you can wait until next year....

Apple has been talking about the post-PC era ever since the original iPad launch in 2010, with Steve Jobs suggesting that PCs would be the ‘trucks’ of the computing world while most people would be happy with ‘cars’ aka iPads. Tim Cook picked up the post-PC baton the following year, and has more recently presented himself as proof of the idea and argued the point more aggressively following the launch of the iPad Pro....

Back when most people were on plans that saw them offered a new phone every two years, upgrading wasn’t really a decision. Paying typically $0-200, depending on your plan, saw you get the latest iPhone every other year. It would have been silly to turn it down because you’d pay the same monthly amount either way. So the only decision most people made was whether to be on the main ‘tick’ cycle, with the new designs, or the ‘tock’ cycle that gave you the S model with the same design but new features....

What’s special about Obarun? Obarun is packed with enough utilities to install & start a vanilla Arch Linux without any trouble.

It was not a great time for the tech company, who has been trying to compete with Apple’s iPhone and instead found itself dealing with a pretty big safety crisis. Devices were recalled and things seemed to calm down for a bit, but it looks like Samsung may not be out of the woods yet. Last month we got word of a washing machine that blew up in Texas, and now reports are coming out of Michigan that a Samsung phone ignited....

With the suggestive name of Montecrypto: The Bitcoin Enigma, the first-person exploration game contains “24 complex puzzles,” according to its Steam page. Players can share the discovered clues or, if they prefer, leave false clues to delay or disrupt their opponents by treasure hunting. Montecrypto: The Bitcoin Enigma was released for $4.49, but until next Tuesday (27) can be bought for $2.69 thanks to a generous launch discount. Until the publication of this article, the game already counts on almost 2,500 players, according to the site SteamCharts....

Once Upon A Time aired from 2011 to 2018 but its thrilling storylines, character arcs, plot twists, and powerful villains are still awe-inspiring. It is a show where the heroes must take heed of Rumpelstiltskin’s wise words “So long as you live in the past you’ll never find your future” if they are going to have a happy ending. There is nothing easy about forgetting a love once shared, a bond that had felt so real but was simply a knot of deception or forgiving family for a childhood that was far from ideal....

OnePlus’ co-founder Carl Pei was telling me about the launch of the next OnePlus device. The company had decided to do away with the conventional launch approach and make the device’s launch totally online. Not many thought that it would succeed. But it totally was in line with the company’s motto of Never Settle. “It is not really regular, is it?” I remarked. Carl laughed in his typically boyish manner and said, “Hey, we are OnePlus....

When OnePlus unveiled the OnePlus 6 in London last week, it did not mention anything about Dash Charging. This was surprising since Dash Charging was one of the most highlighted features of previous OnePlus phones and even the OnePlus 6 comes with the same charging technology. Due to this change, OnePlus decided against using the Dash Charge name for its charging technology in the European Union, though it continues to use the same name in India and other markets of the world....

Today was the official launch for the Verizon iPhone making it available in partner stores across the U.S. Certainly the move to a second carrier has seen a lot of hype among iPhone fans and websites alike, but just how much did that convert into actual sales? According to the Twitter stream, lines were pretty short. In other words, launch day wasn’t what Verizon or Apple was expecting. Reportedly at the Mall of America there was absolutely nobody in line....

Since iOS 10’s first beta hit last week, testers have been seeing signs of Apple’s Search Ads in the App Store. Officially announced a week earlier, Search Ads were marketed as being a way to help customers “discover or reengage” with an application. Something I wondered immediately after the original announcement was how Apple would regulate the Search Ads in a highly competitive market. After having used iOS 10 for over a week now, I’m not any less concerned....

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvxSSGUtTYA&w=480&h=385] Since the release of iOS 4.3 beta last week, I have been testing out the iPad’s new Multi-Touch gestures and have tried my hardest to not touch the home button. With these new Multi-Touch gestures in play, Apple is rumored to be testing prototypes of iPads and iPhones without the hardware home button. Some people say Apple would never remove the home button but some think it’s a particularly interesting idea....

Apple has long been about simplicity and minimalism. Steve Jobs’ philosophy was effectively that usability trumps choice. Sure, you lose the ability to customize your iPhone or iPad in the way you can an Android device without jailbreaking it, but what you gain in return is a device that is both more reliable and a lot more secure. Jobs applied that same philosophy to Apple’s product range. When he returned to Apple in 1997, one of the first things he did was to rationalize the company’s product lineup, paring it back to the essentials....
