Apple, Samsung own 95 percent of all mobile phone profits Apple and Samsung together hoovered up more than 95 percent of mobile phone profits last quarter, leaving little left for other players, says Canaccord Genuity analyst Michael Walkley. Actually, there wasn't a whole lot left for Samsung, either, once Apple was done with things. With strong demand for the iPhone 4S, Apple alone took home around 80 percent of all mobile phone profits in the fourth.. 더보기
How much better will the iPad 3 be? Anatomy of an iPad upgrade (click to enlarge). (Credit: Guilherme M. Schasiepen) I was talking to a friend and tech enthusiast the other day--let's call him "Chuck"--and he sheepishly admitted that he'd taken the iPad plunge. I was shocked. Not so much because Chuck had never bought an Apple product before (take note, Android fan boys), but because he'd bought an iPad 2 with the iPad 3 just arou.. 더보기

Apple will reportedly unveil iPad 3 in early March Apple may unveil the next iPad at an event scheduled for the first week of March, AllThingsD reported today. The company is expected to announce the newest iteration of its blockbuster tablet at its own special event in San Francisco, the report says. With the next iPad, presumably called iPad 3, Apple will look to sustain the momentum of the first two generations of iPads. The iPad 2, which lau.. 더보기
Watch out, Google: Siri accounts for 25% of Wolfram Alpha’s traffic About a quarter, or 25 percent, of all of Wolfram Alpha’s traffic now comes from Siri on the iPhone 4S, according to a report from theNew York Times. The fact that Siri has had such a large impact on Wolfram Alpha in only a few months not only proves iPhone customers are actually using Siri, but how useful Wolfram Alpha’s technology is. It may also prove a long-term threat for Google, as technol.. 더보기
Foxconn to set up five manufacturing facilities in Brazil, each employing 1,000 workers [UPDATE: Foxconn denies] Apple and Foxconn are continuing to work on bringing that $12.5 billion iPad plant in Brazil online (there have been no iPads “Made in Brazil” seen yet, unlike iPhones). Meanwhile, the country’s Secretary of Planning and Development of the State of São Paulo Julio Semeghini revealed today that Apple’s favorite contract manufacturer will build up to five factories in Brazil with a thousand employ.. 더보기
Apple A5 has custom noise canceling circuitry on the actual chip itself One key difference between smartphones running Android and the Apple iPhone is that the former depends on processors from the likes of Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, or NVIDIA, while the latter builds their processors in-house. Now this wasn’t always the case. The first few iPhones used off the shelf chips designed and manufactured by Samsung, but starting with the iPhone 4S, which has the A5 chip.. 더보기
iPhone 6 - An Anticipated Review Many sources have anticipated that the iPhone 6 will hit the market by July 2012. Although, the Apple company has not yet arranged any event in order to announce the releasing of iPhone 6 in the international market or what features are inclusive in the latest model of this smartphone, but, this is not the first time when Apple has maintained such silence, it has now become a tradition of the co.. 더보기
iPad 3 will reportedly have LTE, Retina Display, quad-core A6 You can expect the iPad 3 leaks to come in a steady stream from now until March. Within the last couple of weeks, we’ve heard that it will have an upgraded camera, be slightly thicker, and, of course, tote a Retina display. Now yet another source is adding its voice to the choir, with a report that supposedly confirms many of the details we’ve heard already (and adding a couple of its own). The .. 더보기
Apple iPad 3 could land in March It’s a new year, so we can expect Apple to bring out a new iPhone and iPad by the end of 2012. While the iPhone rumors are still starting to percolate, a new rumor suggests the iPad 3 will be available in March after a “strange” media event in February. The timing of this makes sense, as the iPad 2 was released in March of last year (check out our unboxing of the iPad 2 on the streets of SXSW). .. 더보기
How Apple is sabotaging an open standard for digital books Summary: For nearly two years, Apple has wooed digital book publishers and authors with its unconditional support of the open EPUB standard. With last week’s introduction of iBooks 2.0, Apple has deliberately locked out that standard. Here’s why you should care. Update: This post is part of a series. If you find this topic interesting, I recommend you read the two follow-ups as well: Some standa.. 더보기
Apple's lawyers clean up the sloppy iBooks Author EULA When Apple introduced its iBooks Author program several weeks ago, the company took some much-deserved criticism for a sloppy license agreement that appeared overreaching. Today, the Mac App Store notified customers that version 1.0.1 is available. There’s no new code, though—instead, the notes say, “This release provides an updated version of the End User License Agreement.” At the time, I crit.. 더보기
Canalys: Apple topples HP in global client PC market Apple has zoomed past Hewlett-Packard to be named as the top dog in the global "client PC" market during the fourth quarter of 2011, according to a new report from analyst house Canalys. That's because Apple shipped more than 15 million iPads and five million Macs combined -- representing 17 percent of the total 120 million client PCs shipped globally during the fourth quarter.

Download media to your iPhone straight from the web with iDownloader Back in November a video surfaced by CollegeHumor.com that had Siri as the go-between in a couple’s argument. If you haven’t seen it yet, I’ve embedded it at the end of this article. It’s by far one of the best videos out there. The reason I bring it up, though, is that it was one of those videos that I wanted to show everyone. The problem was that I could stream it from CollegeHumor, but what i.. 더보기
Why aren't iPhones assembled in the U.S.? It's not due to labor costs If you have an iPhone you have likely noted the small text on the back that states, “Designed by Apple in California. Assembled in China.” In the past Apple made all their products in the USA, but that is no longer possible today due to several factors detailed in an excellent New York Times article published on Saturday. The New York Times article is based on interviews with more than three doz.. 더보기
