New iPhone 5 imminent, implausible commercial

The rumors that the iPhone 5 is imminent have being doing the rounds today due to a recent ad casting. However this is an implausible commercial, and people who work in that field are those to disprove it. The ad was online only for a few hours when it was taken down, but that was enough time for someone to take a screenshot. In that ad it was looking for five people to shot a commercial in LA, but be paid in pound sterling. Now there are two ways that we can take this; the first is that there is a commercial and that it will be for the iPhone 4S, as that is the most likely next Apple Smartphone. However, it is more likely to be a hoax due to the nature of the ad. One reader has commented on  MacRumors , saying that his online casting software company handles at least 98% of all commercials in LA; he also adds that no director would ever cast for actors in this way. This certainly seems to be the consensus, as most of the readers have wondered how some of us have got suckered into ...

Four iPhone 4 versions for India, changing the trend

It has been almost a year, but now there is to be four iPhone 4 versions for India. There will be those wondering why it has taken so long, but when you look at the history between India and Apple, we now hope that they are changing the trend. While this news will not be very beneficial to those of you in other parts of the world, just imagine how much it is a big deal for the Indian market? Looking on the  Flipkart  website we can see that they are currently out of stock, but  Tech 2  believes that they are finally on their way. The four versions will be the 16GB and 32GB, along with a choice of black or white. In the past India has been one of the last on the list when it comes to getting Apple’s smartphone; the reason for this was due to the lack of 3G support by local carriers. Now that they have started to push out this service in parts of the country they are now starting to get the handsets that consumers have been craving. There is evidence to support this fa...

Apple’s 8-megapixel iPhone 5: Improving picture quality?

We all know that the current iPhone has seen an improvement when it comes to the camera, but this has still not stopped us from purchasing third-party accessories. However, Apple’s 8-megapixel iPhone 5 might stop that altogether. Now we know that it is not all down to how many megapixels there are for improving image quality – that it all down to the lens – but we can be sure that Apple will have that covered as well. DigiTimes  has learned that Largan Precision will be the supplier for the parts needed, and that they will appear in the 2011 iPhone later this year. We all know that Apple usually launches a new iPhone in June, but recent reports suggest that it will be September, and this latest news supports this. Largan’s should expect their 8-megapixel camera module sales increase from 10 percent of its business to much more than that. The reason we say this is because the iPhone 4 is the most used camera in the world, so we cannot see why this would not be the same for the ...

iPhone 5 or 6 new design, curved glass feature

Reports are suggesting the Apple iPhone 5 or possibly the iPhone 6 will get the curved glass feature as the iPod nano shown in the picture above, the question is “Will this be a very expensive option if added to the future iOS smartphone?” DigiTimes  has reported that Apple may possibly look into the curved glass screens for future iPhones, the iPod Nanos as said above have this glass already but the screens are very small whereas the iPhone versions will be around 4-inches, expensive option but possible. Apple do have great experience already we know that and if reports are correct that they are investing in 200-300 glass cutting machines then they must be serious in incorporating this technology, Apple has the money to make this investment and if succeeded we could see brand new iPhone designs that would definitely be good for the eyes of the customer. Aesthetically the new curved glass design would look great but do we really need to sway away from the current flat screen? Of co...

The Invisible Imaginary iPhone, future in your hand

Now we all know that the new iPhone 5 will be shipping around September time and it would be fantastic if we were to see this the new invisible imaginary iPhone, this is what we call ‘Future in your hand’. Patrick Baudisch researcher at  Hasso-Plattner Institute  has made this new technology all possible and if you watch the video below you can see the invisible iPhone in action, this could become reality in the future. This technology is worth thinking about, your phone rings, or you want to call someone, maybe you would like to play a game, whatever the scenario there is no need to hold the Apple iPhone because you can just hold out your hand and use that as the screen. We visited  Technology Review  and they report that the ‘Invisible iPhone’ has an Xbox-like depth camera that will acknowledge a users finger when your swipe or stroke your hand. This new hi-tech gadget does require special software so that it can determine gestures the user is making; it transmits ...

iPhone 5 may have LTE on China Mobile

The rumors that the iPhone 5 may have LTE are starting to gain momentum, but is still not likely this year. China Mobile said that they would support this to their 600 million or so customers, but this will still not happen until at least 2012. Both Apple and the carrier have been in talks since the first-generation was released back in 2007, so great to see the two could be close to a deal. Apple will have to make a few changes to the China Mobile version of their 4G iPhone, as they use a technology called LTE TDD, which some of you may know means Time-Division Duplex.  PCWorld  learned this from a spokesperson from the carrier, who had been in direct contact with chairman Wang Jianzhou. Some of you may be wondering why Apple and China Mobile have not made such a deal in the past, and the simple answer is all down to TD-SCDMA 3G network. The 3G technology is very different to what AT&T uses, so would have required Apple to rebuild their smartphone to accommodate this. Chi...

iPhone 5 possible delay & iPad halt after Foxconn Fire

The iPhone 5 could see a release date delay this year after an explosion at a Foxconn factory near Chengdu, China happened. Two people who worked at the factory were sadly killed and 16 were left injured. The Foxconn site is where the iPad is manufactured supposedly and because of the explosion that led to a big fire could halt production of Apple iPad’s, according to  Computer World  this could also bring the iPhone 5 release delay as well. WSJ  reports that the explosion happened Friday night near the southwestern China facility, halting production. There was a statement sent to  Gizmodo  mentioning that Foxconn reports that the situation is now under control and such production will be put on hold allowing police to go ahead with their investigations. You can see the full Foxconn statement via  CNET  that say’s at approximately 7 p.m. on May 20; there was an explosion at our Chengdu campus. Foxconn always take safety seriously and working very close...

World-mode Verizon iPhone 5, same AT&T release date

Since 2007 Verizon customers were holding out for the iPhone, and thankfully they finally got their hands on Apple’s smartphone in January. We had assumed that the Big Red version would sell a huge number of units, but knowing that they were offering 6-month old technology did not sit will with the consumer. However, that will all change this year, as we can expect a world-mode for the Verizon iPhone 5, and the best bit is that it will have the same release date as AT&T’s version. Reuters  has been on hand at the Global Technology Summit, where Verizon CFO has been talking about the iPhone world phone as it will be known, which means that it will work in a number of other countries and not just the U.S. However, the one thing we are uncertain of is an actual release date. We had assumed June, but maybe Verizon’s January launch of the iPhone at the beginning of the year has postponed that until September? So what does this all mean? Well all you need to know that instead of just...

Apple always behind in iPhone technology, reasons

Some may say the Apple iPhone is the most advanced smartphone on the market and of course we agree, but we have to sit back and think about them always being behind in mobile technology. Please let us give you our reasons why. There are a few things to hit on here, for example 4G-LTE network technology is somewhat becoming a favoured subject to talk about with many companies such as Verizon etc bringing this new service to customers and many 4G enabled devices are being developed to feature 4G. Apple seem to be lagging behind with this technology on the iPhone, even the next-generation iPhone 5 (4S) will not have this feature. Phones Review have stepped up to the plate and put forward statements such as; Apple’s lagging behind and seem to always wait for other devices with 4G technology such as Android devices, then once these mobile devices have been tested on the field and running smoothly Apple only then jumps on the band wagon with the same service. On a personal note I have us...
