One of the main problems of Apple's iDevices is the screen cracking easily when dropped. Well, this will soon going to be changed, according to the latest patent granted by the US Patent and Trademark Office,  for a “Protective mechanism for an electronic device”. This mechanism should protect the sensitive hardware from Apple's devices when falling, meaning that the devices should turn in the air in such a way that will land on the back or sides. According to Apple's patent, this mechanism will take use of the already existing accelerometer, gyroscope, and GPS to complete it's task. While falling, these sensors will send data to a central processing unit. This unit will than send a command to a motor inside the mechanism, that will reposition the device in midair. The original system was developed by Nicholas V. King and Fletcher Rothkopf.

The latest Apple event, placed on 16th of October, the latest iMac was announced. It has a 27inch Retina display and a 5K resolution, 5120x2880 to be precise. The new iMac also comes with a new type of timing controller (TCON) that has an effective bandwidth of 40Gbps, providing enough power for all the 14.7 million pixels in the display to run smoothly. The display panel is oxide-based TFT (thin film transistor) LCD, with 23 layers that make up the 1.4‑mm display panel assembly alone. It also have a 5mm thin edge. Apple says that the new iMac is also environmentally friendly, being free of many harmful toxins, such as mercury, arsenic and PVC, and it uses just 1.2 watts of electricity in sleep mode. As hardware, the basic components will be: a 3.5 GHz Intel Core i5 CPU, an AMD Radeon R9 290X 2GB GDDR5 GPU, 8GB of RAM and a 1TB Fusion drive. All those for $2,499. If you are willing to pay more (~$4.5k), you can go up to a i7 Intel CPU of 4GHz, a AMD Radeon R9 M295X 4GB GDD...

Apple announced past days that many customers will have to wait until next month for their iPhone 6 orders, as a record of 4 million pre-orders were logged in the first day. That's like double the number for the iPhone 5 from two years ago. The deliveries will start on Friday and will continue through October. According to analysts estimations, based on pre-orders so far, the sales for first-weekend could be up to 10 million. "Assuming preorders are similar to the 40 percent of first weekend sales for the iPhone 5, this would imply iPhone 6/6Plus first weekend sales could be around 10 million," Wells Fargo Securities analysts wrote in a note. Raymond James analysts said they expect sales of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus to top 9 million in the first weekend. "Apple will be selling every iPhone it can make, at least through October. Because of this, the first weekend sales are typically more indicative of supply than demand," they said.

Apple released the new iPhone. Actually they released 2 of them: iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. The iPhone 6 has a 4.7 inch display, while the iPhone 6 Plus has a 5.5 inch display, Apple attacking the phablet market now. The displays are Retina HD with resolutions of 1334x750 for iPhone 6, and 1920x1080 for iPhone 6 Plus. The new iPhones are both bigger and thinner, iPhone 6 being 6.9mm thin, and iPhone 6 Plus 7.1mm. All those are powered by the new A8 64-bit chip, that according to Apple is 50x times stronger, and an M8 motion coprocessor up to 84x times faster than the previous model. Also improved is the new 8MP iSight camera with f/2.2 aperture, a new sensor with Focus Pixel, and new video features like 1080p HD at 60 fps, slo-mo at 240 fps, and time-lapse video mode. Similar to iPhone 5 auto HDR for photos, the new models have now Auto HDR for videos also. The wireless got 802.11a/b/g/n Wi‑Fi, NFC was added, Voice over LTE (VoLTE) audio calling enabled,...

Apple's iCloud was hacked recently by a hacker that leaked celebrity nude pictures. Some of the victims are: Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Kirsten Dunst, Yvonne Strahovski, Kim Kardashian, Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande, Jessica Brown Findlay, Aubrey Plaza, Tenna Torres, Teresa Palmer, McKayla Maroney, Lori Heuring, and maybe more. Many celebrities denied that the pictures are them and are fakes, but some released statements complaining about this situation. Initially, the leak was posted on the 4chan forum. Even if the post was deleted, some pictures can still be found online, and more could come, since the hacked said that he have hundreds...

Apple announced a special event on 9.9.2014, where the iPhone 6 should be unveiled, and rumors are that they will unveil also the iWatch. The iPhone 6 is supposed to have 2 sizes: 4.7 inch & 5.5 inch, should be thinner, and stronger, with a new processor, 64-bit A8. Also, in the same time, it's possible that the iOS 8 will be launched. All those rumors should be cleared on 9.9.2014, at the event held in Cupertino, California.

IHS Electronics & Media revealed how much is Apple spending to manufacture the iPhone 5S and 5C. “The iPhone 5s features a 64-bit apps processor, low-power Double Data Rate 3 (LPDDR3) DRAM, and a novel fingerprint sensor—features that have never before been seen in a smartphone,” said Andrew Rassweiler, senior director, cost benchmarking services for IHS. “In addition, it is very interesting to see that Apple continues to collaborate closely with suppliers to develop unique radio frequency (RF) solutions that give Apple a competitive edge.” Although other smartphones have included 64-bit graphics processors, the 5s is the first model with a 64-bit applications processor, an innovation that has major implications for the iPhone and for Apple’s other product lines. The A7 used in the iPhone 5s costs $19—significantly higher than the A6 used in the original iPhone 5 and 5c, which currently carries a cost of $13. The low-end version of the iPhone 5s with 16 gig...

Late last night local time, the nine man jury of the Apple vs Samsung legal case in California has ruled in favour of Apple and putting over a billion in their pocket in the process. Just days after the case was given to the jury , they have found that the vast majority of  Samsung devices concerned infringed upon the iPhone front fascia design patent. They also ruled that the trade dress (this is basically the design) of the iPhone line has been diluted by several Samsung products. To top it all of, it was ruled that Samsung willingly copied Apple’s patented designs and the resultant damages were tripled. There wasn’t much in favour of Samsung. Their own tablets were found to not rule upon the trade dress of the iPad and none of the Korean company’s patent were ruled in invalid, neither were any of Apple’s. Samsung will appeal the decision, but the verdict is unlikely to be changed. The company can only really dispute the amount of damages they owe and th...

Alexei Borodin, the same hacker who came up with the recent in-app purchase exploit that allowed free transactions for iOS users has struck again with a new method that allows users of Mac apps to do the same. The ‘In-Appstore for OS X’ service uses a method that’s very similar to that used on iOS devices to spoof transactions made to Apple’s servers. We won’t rehash the method too much here, as we covered it in-depth with our previous article. The way that users implement it is slightly different on OS X than it is on iOS, but the root method is basically similar. After installing two local certificates, a user points their computer’s DNS settings at Borodin’s server and it pretends to be the Mac App Store, issuing verification of the purchase. It’s not incredibly simple, but it’s not all that hard either. This time there is a companion app called ‘Grim Receiper that must be run on the local machine to facilitate the process as well. It effectively bypass...

Ultimele informatii despre iPhone 5 descriu un ecran mai subtire, avand la baza tehnologia "in-cell". Aceasta presupune integrarea senzorilor tactili in LCD, facand inutil stratul de separare, folosit pana acum la device-urile cu touch-screen. Ce anume se va schimba, odata cu noul ecran? In primul rand, dimensiunea telefonului, per ansamblu. Primul iPhone avea o grosime de 11,6 mm; modelele 3G si 3GS au crescut la 12,3 mm, iar ultimele doua modele au scazut la 9,3 mm. Cu un ecran mai subtire, grosimea intregului telefon va scadea cu inca 0,5 mm, iar cu ajutorul unor modificari de design (spatele din metal), producatorii vor reusi sa duca urmatorul iPhone la sub 8 mm. Un al doilea efect al ecranului "in-cell" se va vedea la nivelul imaginii afisate. Cu cat sunt mai multe straturile prin care trebuie sa treaca lumina pentru a ajunge la ochiul utilizatorului, cu atat mai neclara este imaginea finala. O afirmatie usor de experimentat: dupa ce ati...

The iPhone cracks itself if siri perceives it as stolen. Before you go why siri why, self destruction is activated only if you have enabled the iphone unlock error security feature on the concept iPhone 5. After 3 strikes, Siri radio quickly does an iPhone data transfer to your iTunes; and goes onto decimate all your information on the phone. You are notified on iTunes, where the iPhone data recovery is now available only to you, as it should be. If you cant have the iphone, NO one can! The question is not whether iPhone -- Will it blend? but iPhone -- Will it destruct?, if stolen. Go Siri! @InformationWeek

Apple's reputation as an unattractive target for malware writers changed when the Flashback trojan hit more than 600,000 Macs. But Windows security still looks worse. Alan Paller, director of research for the SANS Institute, wrote in the group's information security newsletter Tuesday that it was time "to memorialize Apple's arrival as a prime target of cybercrime, following its recent ascent into a trusted platform for enterprise computing."  As Paller notes, Macs now have business cred, due in no small part to Apple hitting a home run with both the smartphone and tablet form factors. Market researchers said the company's success with the iPhone and the iPad has driven more demand than ever for Apple's laptops, not least by business users, even if it means "bringing your own device" (BYOD). Another selling point of Macs is that they've been almost completely unscathed by the last decade's boom in malware.  Interest...

Nu cred că sunt singurul care a primit în ultimul timp cereri de adăugare în lista de prieteni din Yahoo Messenger a unor ID-uri ciudate. De obicei ele sugerează o prezenţă feminină la capătul celălalt al firului şi sunt îmtâmpinate cu un refuz categoric din partea mea. Specialiştii BitDefender ne avertizează că în spatele unui astfel de ID se poate ascunde o nouă ameninţare pentru utilizatori: viermele Trojan.YIMBot.K. Acesta este destul de politicos şi se foloseşte de recenta trecere în nefiinţă a şefului Apple, Steve Jobs. Compania din Cupertino ar oferi laptopuri MacBook gratuite în memoria sa şi eşti invitat să te inscrii pe o pagină web pentru a primi unul. Bot-ul poate să poarte o scurtă conversaţie destul de convingătoare pe Yahoo Messenger şi este în stare să te asigure că are antivirusul cu update-urile la zi. Link-ul menţionat te trimite spre o pagină cu oferte de lucru de acasă. De aici lucrurile devin foarte periculoase pentru utilizator. Un antivirus performant ar tr...
