Remember back when we couldn’t move online without mention of the long-rumored Apple “iTV” Set? Seems a long time ago now, but thankfully, to save us from the barrage of iPhone and iOS 7 concepts circling the web, one designer came up with an idea for the as-yet mythical HDTV by our favorite fruit company. British designer, Sam Beckett has come up…
Although this week has been predominantly about the Google I/O conference, there’s been plenty of interesting iOS stories flying around this week. Whether you’re interested in seeing what Apple might have up its sleeve for 2013, or you like looking at great concepts, there’s been a mixture of everything in this week’s top stories. As always, the…
1. iOS 7 concept iOS 7 is the thing I’m most looking forward to on Apple’s horizon – even more than the iPhone 5S. Having to wait until WWDC is tough, but looking at iOS 7 concepts is a great way to pass the time. This latest concept incorporates the “flat” design that Johny Ive is rumored to be embracing, but takes it one step further by offering the…
If you’ve been using the Bang With Friends app to tell your Facebook friends that you have a crush on them, you may want to find another way to hook up with them. As of today, “BWF Official” has been removed from the App Store by Apple. Colin Hodge, co-founder of Bang With Friends, recently stated that the app was removed by the Cupertino company for…
One thing I learned today: there’s a blog dedicated to pointing out every time Samsung copies Apple. Cool idea right? Its latest discovery was some shameless photoshopping by the Korean tech giant in one of its recent print ads. Posing for a shoot called “Pretty Woman Lying On The Sofa Holding Her Smartphone”, the model was shot holding an iPhone 3GS…

Now, while many blogs may write this up with a sensationalist headline pretending that somehow Apple’s iPad mini is already showing signs that it’s no longer cool, or that…
Although the brand name has never been mentioned in any packaging, or announced at any event, it’s been long-believed that Apple uses Corning Gorilla Glass for its devices.

iOS 7 concepts are a popular topic these days, and designers everywhere are clamoring to get their 5 mins of fame with some interesting designs. If the name Ran Avni sounds familiar, it’s because he’s designed a couple already (1, 2). His track record is pretty good, but I have to say, I’m not a huge fan of his most recent attempt. We’ve all by now…
Recently, BlackBerry gave up the one thing that made its platform an enticing option: BBM. It finally announced that its popular messenger app would be making its way to Android and iOS. While it’s hard to see why it decided on this course of action at this time, it may still prove a popular app for socialites. But, if you were hoping to get some BBM…
Yesterday, Virgin Mobile – one the US’ prepaid carriers – launched an awesome deal for previous generation iPhones. Both the iPhone 4 and 4S are subject to 15% discount online for a limited time (or “while stocks last”). If you’re wanting to take advantage of the offer, that means you’ll get the 16GB iPhone 4S for $382 off-contract, and the 8GB iPhone…
