Forget the iPhone 8 and iPhone X — rumors about next year's iPhones are already starting to emerge

Image
The iPhone 8 and iPhone X are all good and great, but should you wait until next year's iPhone to upgrade? To put it bluntly: If you need a new phone because yours has become too slow for your day-to-day use, it's time to upgrade. Just get the iPhone that's right for you - the iPhone SE, the 6S, the 7, the 8, or the X. Don't worry about next year's iPhones. If you can wait, though, a few rumors have already popped up about what Apple has in store for 2018. The rumors so far mostly center on the next-generation iPhone displays, which could tell us that a design overhaul is imminent, at least for the successors to the now "midrange" iPhone 8. So far, however, there's no indication about the phones' nomenclature. It's still very unclear whether they'll be called iPhone 8S or iPhone 9. We'll just call them the "2018 iPhones" for now. It's important to note that these rumors are very early, and there's plenty of time for Ap...

Is Apple intentionally slowing down your old iPhone? The data suggests not

Image
Data shows consistent performance for iPhone 5S, iPhone 6, iPhone 6S and iPhone 7 with successive iOS updates, but that doesn’t mean the phones don’t feel slower It’s a perennial question asked in offices, pubs, shops and across the internet every year in the run up to the launch of a new iPhone: does  Apple  slow down older iPhones to make you buy new ones. On the face of it the question seems either completely daft – imagine if it was discovered that Apple really does hobble older iPhones, it would be VW’s dieselgate for the smartphone – or simply a summation of the feeling that something is changing about the ageing phone you have in your pocket that really does feel slower. The truth, at least according to the data provided by benchmarking company Futuremark, is that despite what you might feel on a day-to-day basis, your iPhone’s processor and graphics chip are as fast as the day you bought it. Futuremark  collected more than 100,000 benchmarking tests , from the iPh...

The iPhone 8's best feature is one that most people will never get to use

The iPhone 8 -- along with the upcoming iPhone X -- has a knockout feature, but thanks to Apple's lack of courage, most people will never make use of it. Video: Your iPhone X or iPhone 8 won't charge fast unless you buy this for it I've had my iPhone 8 Plus for a little over a fortnight now, and amidst all the new features and functions, there's one feature that's head and shoulders above everything else.

Silicon Valley' shows how ridiculous the new iPhone X truly is

Sometimes, it takes the cast of  Silicon Valley  to poke fun at the real world Silicon Valley. While the show masterfully ribs its own version of tech industry, a new cut from Funny or Die mashed scenes from  Silicon Valley  with Apple's iPhone keynote to reveal  the Sure, the iPhone X is an impressive phone (it better be with  that price tag ), but the way Apple fans praise anything the company does is something we should all call out and laugh at. While cool, Animoji is not the breakthrough technology we need (or want) right now. 

POPSLATE -2

Image
Like most smartphone users, I unlock my screen incessantly so I usually run out of battery when I most need it. But  popSLATE  promises to be the rehab for my swipe-screen addiction. It's a smartphone case with an in-built  E Ink  screen that can personalize the back of an iPhone 6. I could use it to flaunt my favorite pictures or if I run out of battery, at say, an airport, I'd be able to flip my phone over to scan my boarding pass. It seemed like the perfect solution for my excessive phone usage. So I turned the back of my phone into a second, always-on screen for about a week.  Gallery: popSLATE iPhone case hands-on Setting it up was the easiest part: slide the phone into it, download the popSLATE app and a couple of quick prompts later the phone is paired to the case via Bluetooth. Its biggest selling point is that it doesn't need your iPhone's battery. It comes with its own internal battery that lasts for at least a week on a single charge....
