iOS7.1 download now available

Posted on March 11, 2014 by Jody

The iOS7.1 download is now available for all iPhone, iPad and iPod users that have compatible devices (iPhone 4 onwards) and it’s the biggest upgrade to iOS7 since its launch six months ago.

As well as a host of security flaw, bug and stability fixes, the iOS7.1 download includes some feature enhancements, although some will only apply to the top end models. Some of the iOS7.1 features are pretty cool, for example, Apple has recognised that the chipset in the iPhone 4 is not as advanced as the latest models so has streamlined the iOS7 functionality to ensure that it runs as quickly as possible.

Posted on February 25, 2014 by Jody

As I told you a few weeks ago here, the Samsung Galaxy S5 was unveiled at the Mobile World Congress event yesterday along with a whole host of other handsets and smart watches from some of the World’s leading manufacturers.

Apple smartphone market share increases in Q4

Posted on February 5, 2014 by Jody

Apple increased their market share in the smartphone market during the fourth quarter of 2013, mainly in thanks to the release of their iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c handsets. It was the first time that Apple had launched parallel handsets and is something that industry insiders had been calling for for several years if Apple wanted to make faster gains in the market. Surely it was common sense that by launching their usual top end model the 5s along with a brighter, more varied and slightly cheaper model, they would maintain their existing fan base and also add extra customers who perhaps didn’t need or couldn’t afford the business like 5s.
