Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories.

Apple has made various changes in the iPhone 16 lineup this year, and the bigger battery capacity is one of the most prominent additions. The company states that the iPhone 16 Pro models feature the best battery life on any iPhone, but it remains to be seen how the device compares to the previous variants and its arch-rival, the Galaxy S24 Ultra, in a new battery life test. Battery life comparison shows that Apple was right all along about the iPhone 16 Pro Max's battery life, but it still was not able to beat the Galaxy S24 Ultra A YouTuber […]
The iPhone 16 lineup was announced on September 9th at the "Its Glowtime" event, and the pre-orders went live on September 16th. Users have been long waiting for the new series to hit the shelves, and they would be relieved to know that the iPhone 16 is finally arriving today in Apple stores, and people around the world have started sharing official photos from the stores. iPhone 16 is hitting the shelves today, and users from multiple countries are sharing photos from Apple Stores While Apple enthusiasts have been eagerly placing pre-orders, many have been waiting for the new iPhone […]
The media has devoted a lot of airtime in recent days to the supposedly anemic demand for the newly revealed iPhone 16 lineup. Even if such preliminary anecdotes do ultimately end up vindicated, Apple's annual launch cadence remains an intricate logistics exercise that would give an entire orchestra a run for its money. To wit, FlightAware has now made available a dedicated page to track UPS flights carrying millions of iPhone handsets to the US ahead of the official launch of Apple's latest flagship series this Friday. FlightAware has a page up tracking the UPS planes loaded with iPhones heading […]
The iPhone 16 was launched this September with many major display and camera upgrades, and the tech community cannot help but compare the new series with the previous generation and evaluate the distinctions placed between the standard and Pro models. While Apple has brought some noteworthy changes, it seems that the disparity between the standard and flagship models is less than ever. iPhone 16 reviews are out and highlight the reduced gap between the standard model and the Pro models The Camera Control Button is one of the most selling camera functionalities added this time around to the iPhone 16 […]
iOS 18.1 beta 4 has been released and is packed up with some major upgrades especially when it comes to the camera functionality. While the spatial photo option was announced for the iPhone 16 lineup, it is now being extended to the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max. Although the previous Pro models did get support for spatial videos last year, with the latest roll-out, a dedicated Spatial functionality is now added that includes photos as well. The latest iOS 18.1 developer beta now brings support for spatial photos for the iPhone Pro models Spatial photos and videos are an […]
All iPhone 16 models now support fast charging up to 45W if you use a wired connection, making it around 50 percent higher compared to the iPhone 15 lineup. This major change alone signifies that Apple has finally become serious about topping up the batteries faster, which should be the case, given that the technology giant was criticized annually every time it announced a new lineup. Fortunately, that is not the only change introduced, as on a software level, users will be warned if they are using a slower charger. That is correct; with the public release of iOS 18, […]
Apple was previously reported to have prepared 17 million pre-order units of the iPhone 16 series, with the ‘Pro’ models estimated to have made up a whopping 68 percent of the total shipments. However, the iPhone 16 Plus only made up 6 percent of the overall figure, and yet, according to updated numbers from an analyst, this particular model has 48 percent higher pre-orders compared to the iPhone 15 Plus from last year. In comparison, the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max pre-orders were lower than expected, suggesting that the changes might not be compelling enough to warrant […]
Apple launched the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro models recently and the devices have a lot going for them, but based on first look, the standard models received a handful of design variations, while the bigger 'Pro' models only adhered to the size. If you are still adamant about buying one of the devices, check out why the iPhone 16 model is the one that you should go for. The iPhone 16 is worth upgrading to, as the functionality gap between the 'Pro' models is more minimal than ever Apple made some nifty changes to the entire iPhone 16 […]
The new iPhone 16 range arrives with a slew of various hardware upgrades and internal changes, highlighting that Apple’s intentions might have more to do with fixing the issues that existed in the iPhone 15 series last year. A new report states that the four new models do not offer exciting overhauls but improvements that would be appreciated by customers looking to upgrade down the road. Overheating, better battery life, and a dedicated camera hardware button were improvements introduced to the iPhone 16 series A huge miss from Apple was that both the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro […]
It was revealed shortly after the iPhone 16 launch that all four models announced by Apple this year feature 8GB RAM, making it a rare moment when the company decided not to introduce a specifications difference in the memory category. The RAM upgrade for the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus pretty much means that every device from this year’s lineup can seamlessly run Apple Intelligence’s generative AI features, with room to accommodate additions in the future. However, we firmly believe that it was a missed opportunity for the technology giant to introduce some differentiation to the four models, and […]
The Apple Store is currently down, which only means that the company is gearing up to open pre-orders for its iPhone 16 lineup. Just like last year and the year before, we will be greeted with a total of four models; the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus, and the more premium iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. The base versions’ displays remain unchanged at 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch, but the ‘Pro’ variants will now provide extended real estate as Apple has bumped the screen size to 6.3-inch and 6.9-inch. Also, for the first time, the technology giant has […]
