By now, the Internet is so full of rumors regarding Apple’s 2017 iPhone offering, and we do not even know what to call it anymore. It is easy to see why everyone is so hyped up about the device -- let us just call it iPhone X (with X denoting 10 years) -- it basically is a celebration of the decade long dominance of Apple’s iPhone device, and Apple fans are eager to know what new stuff this latest model will wow us with. As for the rest of the players in the global smartphone industry, well they just want to know what they are up against in the upcoming holiday shopping season.
Apple has already started sending out invites for an event happening on September 12th, and it is a good bet that the tech giant will be formally introducing three new iPhone models on that date. Based on previous years, it is a good bet too that for current iOS mobile users, the price of their iPhone device will probably go down. So for those thinking of selling their Apple smartphone, they might want to start now. However, before they do so, they need to take note of some tips.
It appears that Apple is incorporating a new feature on iOS 11 that will instantly deactivate Touch ID. The purpose of this feature is actually to provide a means for automating emergency services calls. Basically, the feature works by allowing iOS mobile users to tap the power button quickly five times in order to be able to quickly dial 911. To be perfectly clear, this does not automatically let a user dial emergency services by default.
While many tech companies nowadays continue to explore how artificial intelligence (AI) can be put to good use in our daily lives, there are only a few who actually try to experiment with how today’s AI tech can help those with physical or sensory limitations. One of these is Microsoft, whose new app -- Seeing AI -- is designed to help blind users get a better sense of their immediate surroundings.
Virgin Mobile, a prepaid subsidiary of major US wireless carrier Sprint, is transforming into a mobile operator that sells only smartphone devices made by Apple. To mark the start of its new identity, the company is introducing a new limited time special offer that gives customers one whole year of unlimited voice calls, text messaging, and data for only $1.
Apple just became the most valuable publicly traded company in history. According to a report recently published by the Wall Street Journal, the iPhone maker’s opening stock price Monday was at $149.03 per share, which results to a valuation of $776.7 billion, surpassing its previous best mark of $774.7 billion recorded in February a couple of years ago.
In March of last year, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) announced that it has successfully hacked the iPhone used by one of the terrorists involved in the San Bernardino shooting in 2015. The agency, however, never really disclosed completely how exactly it was able to unlock the smartphone unit under investigation.
