Now that we’ve had a day to digest the Apple event, I’m diving back in to share more thoughts about the iPhone 4S, the company, software and everything else we saw. Did the new announcements wow me? Disappoint me? Is my rant about the company, or all the downhearted fankids and haters? Don’t let the

Starting October 14, you can charge your iPhone via Micro USB in Europe. Apple will start selling micro USB adapters for its phones on the 14th, the adapters allows “you to use third-party micro USB cables and chargers to sync or charge your iPhone.

I’ve been using an iOS device since the first iPhone launched in 2007, but after 15 months, I began to grow bored of the iPhone 4. Why? The temptation to own the best Android device on the market right now, the Samsung Galaxy S II, was strong. That gorgeous Super AMOLED display is the perfect

With the iPhone 4S announcement finally behind us, there are many people out there itching to get their hands on the new device, especially for the newly revealed Siri – likewise, there are those who feel the changes aren’t substantial enough for an upgrade. Whatever the case, you can bet there will be a huge

I tend to be a little rough on my phones (and my gadgets in general) and have successfully cracked the screen of every iPhone I have ever owned through some sort of usual string of events that ends in the phone being thrown across a crowded room, dropped off the side of a moving car,

Good morning, my British brethren. Looking forward to the iPhone 4S? Yeah, me too. But how much is it going to cost for those of us in the U.K.? Well, it’ll start at £499 (approx. $772) for the 16GB device, which is just £70 (approx. $108) more than the 8GB iPhone 4. If you want

Apple has a reputation for big splashy media events that wow attendees and impress critics (whether rightfully so, depends on your point of view). But today was, in a word, weird. Not only did the company uncharacteristically put on a small affair — held on its campus in its town hall meeting room — but

We’ve got you covered, with this handy dandy guide to determining whether or not you can score Apple’s newest handset at a subsidized rate. Sprint Super excited the iPhone is now available on

 #yawn Part one was a purposely snarky but also pretty honest assessment of today’s “Let’s Talk iPhone” event. Me, you, Wall Street – pretty much everybody I’ve talked to was left pretty underwhelmed by 60 minutes plus of sales stats, minor spec bumps, rehashed iOS 5 feature announcements, and, well, Sprint. The big news here,

Alongside the iPhone 4S announcements today was the nearly overlooked fact that the prices of legacy iPhones are getting slashed. The 8GB iPhone 4 is now just $99. And the base-model 3GS (8GB)? It’s now officially a freebie phone. Cutting prices on older versions may be nothing new, but there were people who badly wanted

Apple didn’t allow any live vid streaming option, so no one outside that Cupertino town hall room got to see the iPhone press event in moving images. But don’t worry — we’ve got your event video recap right here. So if schlogging through all the written posts isn’t your thing, hit the play button on

The new iPhone 4S arrived! But how do is it stack up against its predecessor? Check out our full spec table below comparing the new iPhone 4S and last year’s iPhone 4. At first glance … this is the iPhone 3G vs. the iPhone 3GS all over again.  If you have the iPhone 4, more

The graph kind of says it all, doesn’t it? There must be some sort of stampede to sell Apple shares in the wake of the iPhone media event – which is pretty bracing news for a new CEO taking over a highly prominent role from a corporate and technology rock star like Steve Jobs. Last

O.M.G. What do you mean Apple didn’t announce an iPhone 5?!? The Internet was abuzz this afternoon after Apple opted to announce just an iPhone 4S rather than a full-fledged iPhone 5. People started selling Apple stock in bulk, fanboys started to complain in mass on Twitter – how can the world go another day

With the iPhone 4S finally officially out from under wraps, it’s time to play Monday Morning Quarterback and decide if this was a success or a disappointment. Were you hoping for more? Did you get exactly what you expected? Judging by the way Apple stocks are falling on the stock exchange right now (down 4.89%

And bam — just like the rumors indicated, Apple has unveiled its new Siri voice control feature. (And yep — it’s actually called Siri, just like the company that Cupertino bought.) The concept mock-up pretty much nailed the UI. Siri understands natural language speech patterns, so you can ask stuff like: “What time is it

Apple has finally gone and done what people have been clamoring for with the iPhone since the original was introduced it back in 2007: You can finally take it on an overseas vacation with you. At long last the iPhone 4S will be the first iPhone to be labeled as a true world phone as

During the Apple conference earlier today, a bunch of stats and numbers were tossed out at live-bloggers and audience attendees; they’ve since been spread around the net a little for perspective. According to the presentation, as quoted to me by our own Noah Kravits, the iPhone 4S is all of these things: “Dual-core CPU, twice

From the same room where the original iPod was announced, today Tim Cook made his first product announcement as Apple CEO. The biggest news being that the company opted to announce an iPhone 4S rather than a full-fledged iPhone 5. We’ve been hearing iPhone rumors for months now. So, were all those rumors we heard

 It has to be the strangest way to kick off a press event ever. For some reason, Tim Cook and the Apple crew are so excited about its new Cards app that it decided to lead into the day’s announcements by unveiling this hot, very anticipated new integrated application. (Uh, not.) Cards is a new

We’re set to get an official iPhone announcement in just a few minutes; however, Apple’s own Japanese site has outed a little information about what we’re about to hear. The site already lists the iPhone 4S on its homepage, with an October 14th release date in the country. The store also lists an updated iPod

While we can safely assume that Apple’s new iPhone will boast an A5 processor and an 8-megapixel camera, one thing that you should not be getting your hopes up for is 4G LTE capabilities. This is a feature that has only cropped up a number of times in recent rumors, and the consensus has largely

It’s the last minutes before the iPhone announcement event today, and the air is thick with rumors as we count down the minutes to this long-awaited announcement. Will the phone be redesigned?  Will it be called the iPhone 4S or iPhone 5?  Perhaps there will be two?  Did Sprint not only score the phone, but also
