What's THAT, you say? Apple MIGHT be making a NEW iPHONE, iOS?

larokus

Screen Size??

Is it going to be 4.7 inches? HTC, Samsung, LG, and Sony are all such copycats of apple for making phones with the screen size apple had planned for late 2013

Woz labels Apple 'arrogant' over iPhone size inadequacy

Re: @AC 18:53

Wow thats amazing. Thats the exact same thing that I do with Titanium Backup on Android. (all system user and app data restored on factory reset - including game progress)

Just how good is Nokia's PureView 41Mp camera tech?

Re: With that headline I was expecting an opinion based purely on the fantastic camera.

In all fairness the author has little if any credibility. He still has a 3.5 inch iphone4 in late 2012.

WTF?

Seems trivial..

I thought apple had a patent on the patent system?

Intel's chief chipman: '22nm better than expected, 14nm on track'

WTF?

Re: Gullible hacks...

or maybe since intel is not living up to the performance gains YOU demand for every die shrinkage they pioneer, perhaps YOU can come up with the solution at home? Personally I am not aware of a terrible core i7 (4 years in the making) But please, enlighten me, I'm awaiting your blueprints. While you are at it, plot me the course for the next interstellar science laboratory satellite.

Re: No more than 3 seconds delay?!

no crap! give me a windows 7 phone with a corei7 and a 580gtx video card inside already. This is 2012 ffs

Re: Are you serious?

its at least infinitely quicker than multi-tasking on all but the latest versions of iOS which failed to exist at all.

Re: pensioning off your ipod?

That is hardware based. I have an S4 krait processor in my NA One X and can play music all day long. Not to mention play 18 holes of golf to find out my battery was at 98% at the 19th hole. My iphone playing partners jaw hit the floor.

Re: Brand Awareness

not sure what side of the fence that is aiming at,

but sure, a Japanese or american car, which would you pick? . Apple seems to be strikingly similar to GM of the late 90's in their (no matter what we make the customers will buy it in droves) attitude. I'll take Japanese quality and control any day. And for the record Im still on my original PS3, and 5th xbox. The iphone has barely changed since 2007 and sells like hotcakes. Doesnt exactly represent an intelligent purchase.

Apple MacBook Air 11in 2012

Nice but..

Most people that buy a Macbook Air won't have a clue where Ivy Bridge 'is' ..... <== cute right

Re: Summary-very nice but pricey

Are you kidding me ? I would NEVER consider a trackpad that requires two fingers an UPGRADE. In the world of body mechanics, using MORE energy and akwardness to accomplish a task is not better just because it is different. I will take a PC trackpad with the side page scroll incorporated into the trackpad any day over apples iteration. Unless of course carpal tunnel is your flavour.

Laptop computers are crap

larokus

Somewhat Disagree..

Somewhat disagree...

My 3 yeard old gateway FX has a 1980 x 1200 led screen, full keyboard with number pad, 2 Hard drive bays ALA 1TB (upgraded) and a 1GB 9800GTS nvidia card (top shelf at the time) with hdmi/vga out for additional monitor support. Oh did I mention it was 799 Canadian THEN ? Trackpads are a frustration which is why I always carry a wireless mouse with nano dongle, and a belkin 7 port usb hub in my Laptop bag to address the other issues you mentioned. To sum it up The article is a bla.ket statement making it ultimately false.

Sony Tablet S

larokus

In considering lack of an hdmi port and external connectivity as weaknesses.. the Ipad is the weakest of them all, or are you not a reg reader?

MediaServer app?

Does it have the same mediaserver app the Xperia smartphones have? I find it pretty handy for wireless video streaming over my ps3 :)
