How to fix iphone 6's protruding camera?


The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus are the thinnest iPhones Apple’s ever made, but all that design perfection is slightly tainted by the protruding camera that makes it annoying to use the smartphone on a flat surface.

Slapping on a case fixes the problem, but for those wanting to revel in the beauty of a nude iPhone 6, the PeripateticPandas have come up with an ingenious – though somewhat impractical – solution: Introduce your shiny new 6 to a grinding machine.

Apple Watch coming in 2015 for $349, brings sapphire screen, digital crown, more


Apple’s long-rumoured move into wearable technology has finally taken place. At the firm’s first major new product launch event of 2014, the Apple Watch was revealed on stage by CEO Tim Cook – as an iconic “one more thing” – alongside the brand new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus smartphone range. While the iPhone 6 has been systematically leaked over the past year, the Watch has stayed hidden from view, making the final design and spec list a genuine surprise.

Two sizes, three versions, and many different styles

The smartwatch industry has so far been fixated on producing one smartwatch for everyone, but Apple will make both a large, 42mm Watch, and a smaller-faced 38mm Watch. There will be three different versions, each available in two finishes. The first is known simply as the Apple Watch, and it comes with a polished case made from stainless steel, and a choice of steel or space black finishes. Next is the Watch Edition made from 18k yellow or rose gold. Both these have scratch-resistant, anti-reflective sapphire crystal glass screens. However, the Watch Sport doesn’t, and instead has a lightweight, scratch and impact resistant, Ion-X glass screen. The body is made from anodized aluminum.


A large range of interchangeable watch straps mean the Apple Watch can be personalized by the wearer. These range from a stainless steel metal link bracelet to a fluroelastomer flexible strap, and classically styled leather bands too. Each has its own unique fastening, which in several cases uses magnets to hold the strap closed. Apple advertises a dizzying 18 different styles for the Watch, ten for the Watch Sport, and six for the Watch Edition. It’ll be easy to change the bands depending on your environment too, thanks to a clever – but non-standard – system on the Watch’s face.


Changing the way the Watch looks continues with the face. There are eleven options shown on Apple’s Watch preview website – some show your photos, others the solar cycle, the moon phases, or even Mickey Mouse – and each has individually customizable elements, alternative color schemes, and specific features.

Digital Crowns, Force Touch, and Taptic Engines will control the Watch

Apple has utilized the crown on the side of the Watch, which it calls the Digital Crown, turning the traditional twisting movement into a new way to control lists, zooms, and more. The watch senses you’re raising your wrist and turns on the display.


It features a pressure-sensitive touchscreen, which can tell the difference between a tap and a press – a feature Apple calls Force Touch – giving a “right click” style alternative control system for displaying menus and other options. The Watch features a haptic feedback system, just like other smartwatches, which Apple has renamed the Taptic Engine. It taps you on the wrist to tell you about notifications, will vibrate when you turn the Digital Crown, and combine with subtle audio alerts too.

A tap can also be sent to other Watch wearers, like a digital tap on the shoulder, and the Taptic Engine will also recreate your heartbeat on another Watch owner’s wrist. These are two aspects of Digital Touch, a Watch-only communication system where you can also send quick sketches to friends, or even directly chat to them using a walkie-talkie style app with the Watch’s speaker and mic.


Apple uses the new, custom Apple S1 chip to power the Watch, which is safely wrapped up inside a resin bubble to protect it from water and and heavy impacts. The exact specifications, and those of the screen, have yet to be revealed, and may not be finalized yet. We do know it’ll come with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0 though. A new MagSafe charger will top up the battery using inductive charging, and it attaches the the back of the watch’s body. Standby time is still a secret, but Tim Cook did mention the MagSafe system would make it easier to charge the Watch every night, so we shouldn’t expect it to last more than 24 hours.

Also on the back of the Watch is a heart rate sensor, which uses a set of LEDs and photodiodes mounted in a ceramic cover. An accelerometer, Wi-Fi, and GPS are used to keep tabs on your movement during the day.


The new OS and new Watch apps
The user interface isn’t simply a smaller version of iOS, but an entirely new system designed for the small display size. The OS pulls key phrases from messages to create quick replies, or you can add an emoji, and also dictate a longer reply. The emoji’s are completely customizable on the device, using the touchscreen. They’re even animated. Siri can be accessed with a long press of the Digital Crown, and you can talk to the Watch just like you do with your iPhone.


Favorite photos stored in iCloud can be viewed on the mini display, Apple Maps can be accessed and then controlled using the Digital Crown and the touchscreen in tandem, while Force Touch opens up contextual menus. Options include walking and driving directions, the chance to call your end destination, and estimated time of arrival. Direction-specific vibration alerts keep you heading the right way.

Developers haven’t been left out, and apps can send notifications to the Watch, which can be branded to match the phone app. It doesn’t end there, because apps can use the Watch in some very interesting ways. These include unlocking Starwood hotel doors (only your own, we hope), link up with BMW’s new electric cars to show battery charge and location details, and you can even challenge friends to go for a run through a Nike+ app. Apple says that in the future, developers will be able to write native apps for the Watch too.

Other features include using it as a viewfinder for camera, and an Apple TV control. A Friends app keeps your favorite people in an easy to use list, while Handoff sees messages started on the Watch transfer over to the iPhone. Passbook is ready to show your boarding pass and other tickets, while the new ApplePay wireless payments system works with the wearable device too.


Apple hasn’t forgotten this is a watch either, and claims it’ll always be within 50 milliseconds of the global time standard, plus it’ll automatically adjust to the local time when you swap timezones. On the smartwatch side, it’ll deliver notifications, alerts, calendar entries, and let you answer calls, emails, and messages, all on your wrist. By using Glance, an upward swipe shows the weather, upcoming appointments, and your location on the map.

It’s a motivational fitness tracker too

The Watch takes fitness seriously, and Apple has included several new apps to help your reach your goals. The Activity app is at the center, and uses a brightly colored ring to visualize how much you’ve moved, stood, and run around during the day. The more you use it, the more it’ll learn, and will set different goals each week to motivate you into getting fitter. The rings show how close you are to reaching a daily target, which at its most basic, can be met by having 30 minutes of exercise each day. It’ll even remind you to get out of the chair and move about, right down to prompting you to just stand up once every hour.


When you’re ready for something a little more vigorous, you’ll want the Workout app. This tracks a specific activity, and keeps a record of calories, pace, time, and distance traveled, depending on what you’re doing. Like the Activity app, it’ll set goals for you, and there are awards and achievements to collect. All this syncs up with the new Fitness app installed on the iPhone, which shows historical data. Finally, all this data can be shared with Apple’s Health app, and in turn, other health and fitness apps too.

You’re going to have to wait for it

Apple may have shown us the Watch, but it’s not quite ready to release it just yet. All we know right now is it’ll be out in early 2015, and the price starts at $350. The good news is, the Apple Watch will happily link up with the iPhone 5, 5C, 5S, and the new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. It’s an iPhone exclusive though, and won’t work with any other operating systems, and it requires iOS 8 to be installed.

Apple announces iPhone 6: Better specs, new features, larger screen sizes

 (Image: Apple)

Since the launch of the iPad in 2010, the Cupertino, Calif.-based technology giant has been riding on the successes of its iPhone. On Tuesday, the wait was finally over.

Apple's chief executive Tim Cook took to the stage in the company's home town to announce, among other hardware and software nuggets, two brand new smartphones in different sizes.

The iPhone 6 has a 4.7-inch display, and the new iPhone 6 Plus is a 5.5-inch model. 

The iPhone 6 comes in three different flavors: 16GB, 64GB, and 128GB, costing $199, $299 and $399, respectively, on a two-year contract. 

The iPhone 6 Plus costs $299 for 16GB, $399 for 64GB, and $499 for 128GB on a two-year contract. 

The devices come in gold, silver, and space gray.

Pre-orders start on September 12 and Apple will begin shipping the devices September 19. 

The latest version of its mobile operating system iOS 8 will be released for free on September 17. It is available on the iPhone 4S and later, iPad 2 and iPad mini and later, and the fifth-generation iPod touch.

The iPhone 5S will start at $99, while the iPhone 5C will be free.

Here's what Apple is serving up in the iPhone 6, and iPhone 6 Plus:


A brand new design: The new design is rounder, larger, and easier to hold. The iPhone 6 lands in a 6.9mm thick shell, and 7.1 mm for the iPhone 6 Plus. Both devices are thinner and lighter than the iPhone 5.


Larger 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch display: The iPhone 6 has a Retina HD display, about two times the resolution of the iPhone 5 display. At 1,334 x 750 resolution (or 326 pixels-per-inch) for the iPhone 6, and 1,920 x 1080 resolution for the iPhone 6 Plus, the new smartphones have more than 2 million and 3 million pixels, respectively.

64-bit A8 chip: The two new smartphones contain the next-generation A8 chip, which has 2 billion transistors, double that of the first-generation A7 chip.


M8 co-processor: This new co-processor works alongside the main chip to continuously measure motion data without draining battery life. The M8 co-processor is designed for fitness and activities, it was announced. It can now figure out elevation, such as with a flight of stairs. It also comes with a new sensor called the Barometer, which measures elevation from air pressure.

Improved 8-megapixel camera: The camera is improved from the iPhone 5s, with a few new additions, like a new and improved sensor. The True Tone flash changes color depending on surrounding lighting, and images should come with greater noise reduction technology. The auto-focus is twice as fast as before, executives said. Panoramic photos now go up to 43 megapixels in size. The iPhone 6 Plus, however, comes with optical image stabilization. 

Near-field communications (NFC) for mobile payments: Apple's latest smartphones will come with a mobile payment feature, made possible with a near-range wireless chip that will allow users to pay for low-priced products from their device.

Better battery: At least, proportionally. Apple's Phil Schiller said the new devices will be as good as, if not better than, the iPhone 5s. Expect about 11 hours of video watching and Wi-Fi browsing, and about 14 hours of video and browsing on the iPhone 6 Plus.

Faster networking, LTE: Next-generation speeds are now up to 150 Mpbs, compared to 100 Mbps in previous models. The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus also come with 802.11ac networking for faster home and office speeds.

Included in the latest version of iOS 8, which lands with the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, we have:
Apple Pay: A new mobile payment system, using the iPhone 6's new NFC chip, will allow users to pay for low-priced products from their device. Integrating with Touch ID and Passbook, users can add a new card from iTunes or by scanning their card with the camera.

HealthKit: Health, a dedicated app, and slated to work with third-party apps and services, it integrates with leading institutions so it can link with doctors and hospitals. It works seamlessly with Apple Watch, the company's new wearable.

Wi-Fi Calling: You can now (carrier supported) make calls over home or work Wi-Fi networks. It is supported on T-Mobile in the US, and EE in the UK for now.

Handoff: If you're working on your Mac and you need to switch between devices, you can "handoff" to your iPhone or iPad, running iOS 8, so long as you are within a close proximity. Many existing apps, like Safari, Mail, and Messages, will work from the start, as will many third-party apps offering support.

iCloud Drive: iPhones and iPads running the latest iOS 8 software will have its own dedicated app for browsing through your iCloud, similar to a cloud-based file manager.

QuickType and third-party keyboards: New predictive typing suggestions for words, allowing users to type out text messages and emails faster. By using context suggestions, different patterns and styles of writing are predicted based on who you are contacting. Additional and third-party keyboard support will also come with iOS 8, paving the entrance for major alternatives, such as SwiftKey.

Interactive notifications: Users can now pull down from a notification and reply there and then, without having to leave the app you're in.

Text messages support in iMessage: Traditional SMS messages will now synchronize across iMessage to other devices, including Macs.

Enterprise features: iOS 8 includes a number of enterprise-focused and manageability features, including Device Enrollment Program, which sets up your device automatically — like apps, mail, contacts, and more. It also includes with per-message S/MIME, VIP message threads that display on the lock screen, increased security, and third-party document providers.

iPhone 6: A Big Screen Is Nice, But The Bigger Battery Is Necessary


Apple fans have been looking over at the big, beautiful screens of Android phones like the Samsung Galaxy S5 for a long while now. And while the continued sales success of the iPhone shows many are satisfied with what they’ve got, there is little doubt many are salivating at the prospect that next month’s iPhone 6 announcement will at last bring larger displays to Apple’s flagship product. Indeed, rumors from the supply chain suggest the move to 4.7 and 5.5-inch screens will generate so much demand that Apple could sell 70-80 million before the year is out. But could it be possible that the killer feature of the iPhone 6 isn’t the display itself, but something behind it? Yes, I’m talking about the battery.

Samsung Galaxy S5 vs. iPhone 5S: Which smartphone should you buy?



Source: Extremetech
Samsung Galaxy S5 vs. iPhone 5S:
Design
The Galaxy series of devices are always getting bigger, but the increase in size is less substantial this time. The Galaxy S5 has a 5.1-inch screen with slim bezels that keep it from being too ungainly — 72.5mm across. The back is made of plastic with a dimple pattern that reminds many of a Band-Aid. It might not be the most elegant look, but it provides some much needed grip.

Apple’s devices have always been more slim than Samsung’s, and the difference is only becoming more stark as Android handsets continue to scale up. The iPhone 5S has a 4-inch screen and is only 58.6mm across. It’s much easier to use one-handed, but the tradeoff is screen real estate. The iPhone has an aluminum composite frame that feels very solid and keeps the phone from being too hefty
Another aspect to consider is Samsung’s new water and dust resistant design. Last year there was a separate product for this feature (the GS4 Active), but now the Galaxy S5 can be dunked and splashed with no consequences. The removable back panel has a rubber gasket that seals the sensitive components, and there’s a cover on the USB 3.0 port to keep water out. The Galaxy S5 is rated IP67, which should keep it dry for up to 30 minutes in a few feet of water, but Samsung encouraged potential buyers at its announcement not to push it that far. Still, compare that to the iPhone 5S with its warranty-voiding water sensors that can be triggered by the most miniscule amount of moisture.


Both devices include a fingerprint reader under the home button, but Apple has a more futuristic sort of implementation than Samsung. Samsung included a familiar swipe reader in its home button, so users have to drag straight down across the button to be recognized. The iPhone’s Touch ID system can learn and recognize your fingerprint when you lay a finger flat on the button, which is much more convenient when you’re pressing it. Watch the video below to see how clumsy the Samsung implementation can be.




Samsung ups the ante by including a heart rate sensor on the back of the phone. It plugs into the S Health app and it might actually get a lot of use — your finger is only a few centimeters from the reader, after all.

Samsung Galaxy S5 vs. iPhone 5S: Cameras

The iPhone 5S packs an 8MP rear-facing camera that routinely produces some of the best images available on a smartphone. It’s not just the stellar back-side illuminated sensor that makes that happen, it’s the two-stage flash that keeps objects from looking blown out or too dark when ambient light is low.

Samsung bumped the Galaxy S5 up to a 16MP sensor from 13 in its last flagship. One of the issues with a 16MP image sensor is that it can take a long time to acquire the image. Samsung has partially rectified that by using an advanced technique called phase-detect autofocus. This lets the Galaxy S5 focus on its target in 0.3 seconds, which should close the speed gap considerably.


Samsung has also added the option to capture 4K video with the Galaxy S5. At that point you’re just left worrying about the amount of storage space being eaten up on the GS5′s limited internal storage — it doesn’t help that Samsung leaves you with less than 8GB to work with on the 16GB model.

The 2013 Android flagships like the HTC One and Galaxy S4 were vast improvements over past Android devices, but Apple was still the clear winner in overall image quality. This year, Samsung might have the right combination of features to win this matchup. Early impressions suggest that Samsung’s camera is very good indeed, but we need more time with it before declaring an absolute winner.

Alleged Apple iPhone 6 front panel surfaces


Source: Gsmarena
The dust has only just began to settle in the post-MWC 2014 mobile world and we already have the next storm coming from Rumorland. An front panel allegedly belonging to the Apple iPhone 6 has shown its face and has led further credence to the rumors that iOS fans will finally be getting their overdue screen size upgrade.
The leaked panel features far slimmer bezels (actually non-existent on the sides), allowing for a notably larger screen to fit in the same footprint. However, even so, our calculation show that the new panel can only accommodate a 4.3” display – far smaller than the initially rumored 4.7”-5” screens.
Of course that might be just one of the prototypes Apple is testing or there could be more than one new iPhone like last year. There’s also the chance that this is an elaborate fake, so take it with a pinch of salt, but if legit the photo shows that at least one of the upcoming Apple smartphones will still be firmly planted in the compact territory.

iPhone 6 Waterproof? Apple’s Water Resistance Could Even Kill Germs



Source: Inquisitr
Will Apple make the iPhone 6 waterproof? Some fans are hoping so, but even water resistance should be a checklist item for high end smartphones if only because it’s healthier.

In a related report by The Inquisitr, a fake ad for iOS 7 claimed the update would make your iPhone waterproof… hopefully no one tested that idea out.

Unless you happen to run out and get Best Buy’s $1 iPhone 5S deal today, Apple’s products tend to not be cheap to replace. People talk about disposable income but if you drop your iPhone 5S in the water then you’re looking at a $699.99 bill. So now we can give those three reason for why Apple could, and should, make the iPhone 6 waterproof.

#1 Samsung Galaxy S5 Is Waterproof
For the most part the Galaxy S5 is going to be the nemesis of the iPhone 6. And even iPhone fan Peter Cohen is jealous of this feature:

“If Sony and Samsung’s offerings are anything to go with, Apple could produce an iPhone that’s water resistant to about three feet for 30 minutes and still keep it outside of a discrete case. The goal here wouldn’t be to make an iPhone that you could take with you into the water, per se, but instead an iPhone that could tolerate occasional spills or quick dunks without completely frying. Something that you could keep in your pocket in a heavy downpour and not have to worry about shorting out.”

#2 The iPhone Can Be Made Waterproof Already
A few companies offer treatment services to make your iPhone less likely to get water damage. There’s also cases that make the iPhone completely submersible.

As an example, check out the company called Liquipel, which produces a super hydrophobic solution:

Quite frankly, I don’t see why such a chemical layer shouldn’t be built into the iPhone 6 as standard. Which brings us to our final point:

# 3 iPhone Waterproofing Is Healthier
When everyone talks about the hydrophobic materials they’re often focused on how they repel water and other liquids. But another aspect rarely talked about is how bacteria and other gunk cannot live on those surfaces. For example, one of the earliest products to feature hydrophobic materials was a toilet plunger and it was advertise as germ-free.

Nowadays, smartphones are just nasty to the touch… literally. People touch them after, even during, using the restroom. In fact, it’s being reported that gross smartphones carry more germs than public toilet seat. So have your iPhone waterproofed by this method has the side effect of making them healthier.

Do you think Apple should make the iPhone 6 waterproof?
