Here’s what we know for sure ( so far) -- Apple will be holding an event on September 9th Wednesday at the Civic Auditorium (which has a 7,000 seat capacity) located in the city of San Francisco, California. The invitations that were sent out featured a statement that teases: “Hey Siri, give us a hint.” Oh, and the whole event will be streamed live.
It happens eventually to any product. After a few years surge of phenomenal popularity, the hype eventually dies down, while consumers start to explore other alternatives to that product, or something new, better, or just different. The same applies to smartphones, even Apple's iPhone, perhaps the most culturally significant and influential (technologically speaking) smartphone of all time.
For almost a decade now, Apple has been warning mobile users not to mess with the security settings of their iPhone devices, such as letting their smartphones work in foreign countries or install mobile apps that were not approved by Apple. This practice is known as jailbreaking, with many a mobile user having done it (or somebody else) at least once with the belief that it is harmless. Apple, of course, believes that jailbreaking makes the user’s iPhone vulnerable to hackers.
It appears that Vine is strengthening its music related features by introducing new tools that would allow its users to incorporate music to their videos, as well as make it easier for them to discover music tracks on videos shared by other users. These two new features are officially called the Snap To Beat feature and the Featured Tracks tool. Basically, the Snap To Beat feature lets users make perfectly looping music tracks to the videos they are creating.
Using your cell phone while walking along the sidewalk or while riding the train to work is generally considered acceptable, but what about inside the cinema while watching a movie, or while in church? A new survey by Pew Research Center aims to find out just what Americans of today consider appropriate when using cell phones, whether in public or social settings.
Verizon Wireless is introducing a new policy that should entice more customers from other rival wireless carriers to shift to Verizon by virtue of being allowed to bring their own handsets to the Big Red.
Previously, Microsoft had previously only released a private beta (not counting a number of leaks) of its personal digital assistant, Cortana, for the Android mobile operating system. But that changes now as the company has decided to officially make available a beta version of Cortana for Android for the general public.
Google’s Project Ara aims to develop modular smartphones that can be assembled by mobile users themselves, using different parts from different original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). The idea is cool for sure, but there is one little problem -- because of their modular nature, they are prone to breaking apart when they are dropped, and apparently, Google’s team of technicians has not found a way to make Project Ara smartphones sturdy enough yet.
Apple is expected to unveil its next iPhone model in September of this year, and since 2015 is an S year (a year in which the company releases an iPhone S model), we will likely see a new smartphone that basically retains the same design as last year’s iPhone 6, but with new enhancements in interior components and even software features.
