Want to know more about the iPhone SE?

Have you gotten an iPhone SE? Or as we like to call it, the iPhonsey?

 

iphonese

 

If you haven’t, and you’re thinking about it – here’s the lowdown.

 

It’a a 4-inch iPhone. By all accounts, it might be a bit hard to get used to if you’re leaving your iPhone 6S behind for it, but that it’s super easy to handle once you’ve passed that barrier to entry.

 

It feels very, very similar to the iPhone 5S.

 

It has a 12-megapixel rear camera (like the iPhone 6s), however the front-facing camera is still just 1.2 megapixels, although it features a new ISP and a Retina Flash.

 

According to all reports, the best things about the iPhonesey is the battery life, the A9 processor and the price. The battery life is said to outpace the iPhone 5s and the iPhone 6s. You’re looking at a life of about 10 hours.

 

The A9 processor makes the phone very fast and it also has 2x faster CPU and 3x faster GPU performance compared to the iPhone 5s.

 

The best bit – for a new model iPhone with all the perks that come with that, it’s just $399 for 16GB, and $499 for 64GB.

 

Does this convince you? Don’t forget, we can help you out on the cash front if you’re thinking of getting the rad little iPhonesey – sell us your old iPhone for Cash delivered straight to you by Check, PayPal or Bitcoin.

Another Apple Original TV Series?

Guess what you never knew you wanted until now?

 

A non-scripted Apple backed TV series, created with Will.i.am, that will, ahem, ‘spotlight the app economy’.

 

So vague, so weird, and yet, so intriguing?

 

It’s Apple, so obviously, there’s no more information. Well, a teeny bit. It was originally conceived by Ben Silverman who is an executive producer on shows like Jane the Virgin, The Biggest Loser, Marco Polo, and Flaked.

 

This will be alongside Apple’s other TV foray – a series called Vital Signs that will star Beats co-founder and Apple executive Dr. Dre.

 

Intriguing cross promotion, Apple. Intriguing and weird.

iPhone rumor!

Upcoming iPhone models will reportedly have OLED screens as early as 2017, according to reports. The screens will most likely be made by Samsung and LG – with Apple apparently signing a $12 million dollars to secure the deal.

 

OLED means Organic Light-emitting diode. Essentially, it means thinner, lighter, more power efficient and more flexible screened iPhones coming our way.

 

We like all those things!

 

Samsung already use OLED technology, and Apple does too – on the Apple Watch.

 

If these reports are incorrect, we can still probably expect OLED screens on iPhones, just maybe not as soon.
