iPhone sales growth is accelerating in China, Apple’s second biggest market after the US. The 6% year-on-year growth seen in September and October of last year hit 18.7% in December, according to official Chinese government data. The Chinese government publishes figures for total smartphone shipments, and for Android smartphone shipments; subtracting one from the other reveals iPhone shipments … (Technically, there are a few other platforms on the market, such as Tizen, but combined sales of smartphones running these are well under 1%, making them nothing more than noise....

Much like the rest of Apple’s modern iPhone lineup, the new iPhone SE lacks support for 3D Touch. While Apple has replicated some of the 3D Touch features with Haptic Touch, there’s one key functionality missing on the iPhone SE: expanding rich notifications. Apple moved away from the pressure-sensitive 3D Touch feature starting with the iPhone XR. In its place, iPhones gained a new Haptic Touch feature, which replicates some 3D capabilities using a long-press rather than pressure sensitivity....

Mobile Choice says of the iPhone 3GS, “No phone in the history of mobiles has demanded more headlines and column inches than the iPhone.” Perhaps that’s why readers voted for Apple’s product, while the mag’s editorial staff named LG its ‘Manufacturer of the Year’. Apple’s smartphone’s closest competitors in this category (which made the shortlist) included nothing from RIM or Palm, they were: Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Nokia N97 Samsung i8910 HD HTC Hero Meanwhile, news emerged from China this morning that China Unicom is currently negotiating a deal with Apple under which the computer company would potentially manufacture iPhones that are compatible both with WiFi and the Chinese-made WAPI (wireless) standard....

While there may be many tales of doom-and-gloom surrounding the iPhone X at present, Kantar says that the flagship iPhone made it into the top three rankings in all of the regions it monitors during the last month of the year. The achievement vindicates Apple’s pricing of the iPhone X, argues the company. All three of Apple’s latest phones helped the company achieve ‘strong results’ in China, Japan, Australia and parts of Europe....

See the above illustration? Apple has used it in one of their many patent applications to envision the Aperture user interface on a touch screen device.

Said patent application surfaced in the United States Patent & Trademark Office’s database, entitled “Docking User Interface Elements”. The document goes to great lengths to describe a heads-up display of sorts to interact with a touch-enabled version of Aperture....

Early on, it looked as though Fox would take a dramatic turn in tone and content when it came to Logan. Following the box office success of Deadpool, Hugh Jackman’s last ride as Wolverine sees him and director James Mangold enter an R-rated world where the movie’s plot takes the character away from the multiple X-Men timelines to tell a single, self-contained, character-driven story. Early indications look as though the film delivers, giving Fox another win in the mutant column and one that goes against tradition with its rating....

There is nothing to say more about Signal at the time of writing this article because unnecessarily WhatsApp Privacy Policy 2021 has brought this all of a sudden. The signal is a cross-platform centralized encrypted chat messaging service which is almost similar to WhatsApp except for privacy policy.

Josh Hartnett has set the record straight on old rumors about him being cast as Batman, Spider-Man, and Superman in the early days of his career. Hartnett was a major rising star in the late 90’s and early 2000’s, following appearances in films such as The Faculty, Pearl Harbor, and Black Hawk Down. However, as the years rolled on, Hartnett’s public visibility would noticeably decrease. Although Hartnett hasn’t been as prominent a star as his early career rise would have seemingly indicated, he’s still kept busy with work in the independent scene....

The widely popular Just Cause video game series is getting a movie adaptation from John Wick writer Derek Kolstad.

There have been some failed attempts in the past, but there are several other properties in development with potential, and now Just Cause can be added to the list....

The Justice League situation could be a lot worse. Justice League is a film that has been talked to death in the time following its release: from fans petitioning to gain access to the elusive Snyder Cut, to the revolving door of directors and other crew members attached to, and subsequently detached from, the project, the 2017 film has been analyzed from nearly every angle. One of the biggest complaints from fans was the involvement of Joss Whedon, who essentially remade the film on a lower budget, and cut out many of Snyder’s original ideas, presumably to appease Warner Bros....

I could take a lab test approach to my dilemma of choosing between the iPhone 12 mini and the iPhone 12 Pro Max cameras. Buy both phones. Mount them on a tripod to ensure I was getting pixel-perfect alignment. Take test shots in all conditions. Compare 100% crops. But there have already been enough of those to persuade me that the differences are real, if small. The question for me is all about whether I can cope with the size of the Max....

Every year, the popular YouTuber Marques Brownlee — better known as MKBHD — shares his own blind smartphone camera test based on the choice of his followers on the web. MKBHD has just posted his 2020 blind camera test and surprisingly, iPhone 12 Pro Max lost to OnePlus 8T in the first round. The test is not scientific and it consists only in revealing which photo people think is best based solely on the images without any other reference....

One iPhone 5 user reported gobbling up to 2GB of cellular data over a three-day period while connected to Wi-Fi. There are several AT&T users on Apple’s support website reporting the same problem, too. The New York Times also noted the problem was not specific to Verizon:...

A series of new, high-resolution photos we have obtained show new features coming to the next-generation iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus. First, comparisons of the front glass indicate that the new devices will sport upgraded front-facing FaceTime cameras with bigger sensors. The white phone in our images is a current iPhone 6, while the black plate is an iPhone 6S component. The presence of larger sensors likely indicates a higher pixel count up from the current 1....

The iPhone plant riot in India over the weekend is not expected to have much immediate impact on production in the country, but analysts suggest that it might have longer-term implications.
