    Does the 2017 iPhone need a home button?

    With the iPhone 6S and 7's 3D touch to enable multi-tasking, is a home button whether software or hardware even needed? With the current "rumor" that Apple is having difficulties embedding the home button under the screen, or having it placed on the back. I decided to embark in the no home...

    iPhone 8 Camera News

    As a loyal iPhone user since version 3 (and I'm not abandoning my iPhone regardless)...I am concerned that we have not heard more about the upcoming iPhone 8 camera upgrades (if any). Today the Samsung S8 is being released, and for me this is the first time that I see a significant improvement...

    Will Apple Ever Give Users More Control?

    I've used iOS since the iPhone 4, and have strayed every so often due to Apple's lack of customization, before quickly returning back to iOS due to their amazing build quality, eco system, customer service, and overall software stability. I am wondering if they will ever give users full...

    iPhone 10th anniversary, iPhone 8 and the future

    It's a fiction. We think that Apple has to show us something great after the Galaxy S8. Let's see how is it going to look like: everybody thinks the next iPhone's going to be a huge step. half true, half false. next year Apple expands the iPhone line, deeply separates iPhones following the...

    Dual Lens on this year's new iphone?

    I love the dual lens and portrait mode of the iPhone 7plus but I wish we had it on the regular size iPhone models. It would be so awesome if we did! Does anyone know if the dual lens is rumored to be on this year's regular size iPhone model instead of only the plus size model? I'm really hoping...

    Switching from the iPhone 5 and a quick Question!

    My iPhone 5 Finally broke on me. I've had it since launch. The battery failed on me. It would go from 100% to 10% within two minutes of use. I managed to get through for a while until two days ago it wouldn't charge up anymore even after 48hrs plugged in nada it finally met its end. I was...

    USB C and the iPhone/iPad [MERGED]

    Just curious on peoples opinion on this one... Its not beyond a stretch to think Apple will abandon Lightning in favour of USB C (as its more of a multi platform standard, no?) Question is, will they do this for the iPhone 8

    iPhone 8 to have Touch Bar like MacBook Pro?

    This is just a theory of mine. Since the Home button takes up too much space and Apple prefers keeping symmetry between the top and bottom of the iPhone.... what if they added a Touch Bar at the bottom of the phone that took up considerably less space and also included a built in Touch ID sensor...

    Tap to unlock = bezel free next year

    Why would you go from a single step of resting your finger on the Touch ID to two steps of Touch ID and then pressing the home button to unlock the phone? The only reason I can think of doing away with slide to unlock now is the removal of the home button and bottom bezel with the shifting of...

    iPhone 7 best option?!?

    I am a long time iPhone user. The last two rounds of iPhones (4 and 6), I've received via the 2 year contract program allowing me to get my phone for free. I only paid tax. I currently own an iPhone 6 outright. My two-year contract with AT&T expires this week. My goal is figure out a way to get...

    Will the iPhone 7 really be boring? Black color, 2K resolution & 265GB Storage

    Based on most of the rumors about the upcoming iPhone 7 it looks like it will just be a re-skinned iPhone 6s with no headphone jack. Apparently Apple wants to make all the big changes with the iPhone 8 coming out next year (including an all around glass body?) so why bother adding any major...
