That’s right, kids, another year, another iPhone. This one should be an exciting new iPhone year though! It’s a no ‘s’ iPhone year! If we’re going on what has happened in the past, Apple updates their iPhones pretty incrementally in the S years, saving the bigger updates and changes for the other years. This is one of those years.
Welcome to iPhone 7 year. We think. Probably. Right? Right.
So we’ll start right off the bat with a nice little iPhone 7 rumor. Judging from the past, we’ll be seeing this bad boy in the Fall, and according to the rumor mill, it will be completely waterproof.
Cue gasps.
Now, these waterproof rumors have been around for years, predominantly because, well, smartphones are one of the most important physical things in a lot of people’s lives, and they’re not waterproof. Or beerproof. Or any liquidproof. And humans drop these important things specifically in liquid all the time.*
There’s no real facts behind this rumor, but hey, who’s going to let that stop anyone? WATERPROOF IPHONE 7! YAYY!
* Have you dropped your iPhone in liquid? We want it please!!!! Head on over to www.iphoneantidote.com and grab a quote to see how much $money$ we’ll pay you for that stinky wet iPhone!
Following the Christmas Holiday period, mobile analytics firm Flurry released a report that must have given Apple shareholders and bosses alike a nice little holiday shiver up their spine.
During the oh-so-profitable- Holiday season dates of December 19th through December 25th, 49.1% of all new devices activated were Apple devices, which, whilst ever so slightly down from last year, still makes them dominant over other mobile device companies.
Samsung devices were 19.8%of all device activations, and Nokia devices made up just 2%.
The 5.5-inch iPhone 6s Plus represented 27% of new device activations, whilst the most popular remained the 4.7-inch iPhone 6 at 65%.
Happy New Year to you, Apple. If you’re one of those lucky folk who got a brand new shiny iPhone or tablet over the Holiday season, why not make money on top of luck? Sell us your old iPhone Dummy!
Happy New Year Kids! Hope you had one hell of a bash to bring 2016 into the world! And what a beautiful monster she’s turning out to be…
We hope all your resolutions and hopes and dreams come true this year, and that our resolution comes true too – that our world is filled with your stinky old iPhones!
Everyone’s favorite dreamgirl Taylor Swift has announced a new concert film called “The 1989 World Tour LIVE.” In a not so surprising move, the film will be released exclusively on Apple Music.
Fans won’t have to wait long – the film comes out on December 20, and features backstage and onstage footage from the Sydney leg of Tay Tay’s 1989 tour, including special guests like Alanis Morissette, Steven Tyler, and Wiz Khalifa.
You’ll be able to watch the film beginning next Sunday on Apple Music using an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, PC, or Apple TV.
AT&T is now offering a pretty stellar deal on a bunch of smart phones from Samsung and Apple.
The deal looks to be specifically concerning Samsung phones like the Galaxy S6, however it has been confirmed that the deal also applies to the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus.
Until December 31st, 2015, customers who purchase a new iPhone 6s via the AT&T Next financing program will receive a credit of $650, the cost of a new 16 GB iPhone 6s, spread over the life of the Next financing installments. (NB – you are responsible for taxes and service fees).
Customers can apply the credit to a higher capacity iPhone 6s or the iPhone 6s plus, but must pay the difference in cost.
Are you looking to upgrade this holiday season? If you are, don’t forget to send us your stinky old iPhone! We’ll give you cash to use towards your shiny new iPhone, or Christmas, or to help you jet off to the balmy Bahamas for some sunshine! Mmmmm… sunshine.
We’ve placed our hand on the oddly shaped crystal ball in our secret clairvoyant cave, and here’s what it told us:
Apple will be holding a Special Event in March to announce a 2nd generation Apple Watch which will ship most likely in April.
The new model will possibly have a list of new health measurement features that were not up to par for the first Gen Apple Watch, as well as a front facing Facetime camera and the ability to do more without needing a connection to an iPhone
At the same media event it is rumored that Apple will announce an iPhone 6C, a cheaper and smaller 4 inch iPhone.
Our crystal apple is also telling us that they will unveil a magnificent line of teleportation devices, but I think it might have gotten it’s dates wrong. That’s so 2033, crystal ball. Geez. Can’t trust any future telling device these days.
Do you use Apple Maps or Google Maps on your phone? Of course, when it first came out, users were pretty sore about Apple maps usability and, uh, navigational errors, but things have changed people! Apple has made some major improvement up in Maps!
But you might already know that, if you have an iPhone. Apparently, Apple Maps is now used three times more than Google Maps on iPhone.
They’re looking at over 5 billion map related requests per week.
When we’re looking at all smartphones, however, lots of people are still sticking with our ol’ buddy Google Maps, which has two times more users than Apple Maps. A lot of this though could be because Apple Maps is only available on iOS while Google Maps is available on both Android and iOS.
