Check this little guy out. If you have any microUSB cables sitting around the house, this Lightning adapter will let you sync your iPhone, iPad or iPod without a problem. It’s teeny-tiny, but it’ll likely appease plenty of people with multiple cables, or even a…

Competition is essential to the mobile market, an ingredient that breeds excellence and ultimately gives consumers more options to choose from. Sometimes it’s not always the latest and greatest options that people want, however, even when dealing with Apple’s new iPad mini. Yes, the Apple’s…

When Apple execs talk about competition, it does not mince words, especially if the company is talking about a product — in this case, Microsoft’s Surface — trying to move in on hallowed territory. But, in a response to AllThingsD, Microsoft has a frank rebuttal…

As is the case with every Apple release, the company’s iPad mini might be hit with supply constraints. But the issue, this time, is Samsung’s refusal to hand over displays, according to Richard Shim, an analyst with NPD DisplaySearch. With Samsung out of the picture,…

Google is maybe, probably phasing out the 8GB Nexus 7. Either that, or this is foreshadowing a major price reduction, which has been hinted at for the past several weeks. The 8GB device has abruptly gone from In Stock to Coming Soon, with nary a…

Apple’s third generation iPad is already being kicked to the curb, just seven months after its March launch. Apple’s typical spring refresh was upstaged by a fall cornucopia of new kit, and the company obviously didn’t want to leave its larger iPad behind seeing as…

Over 100 million iPads have been sold worldwide as of two weeks ago. In just a three generation span, that’s an astonishing number, especially for a product that was initially brushed off as merely a bigger iPod Touch. In June alone, Apple sold more iPads…
