News & Reviews:   Apple

Last month, a French government agency apparently claimed that the iPhone 12 series had a radiation leak and was forced to slap a ban on the lineup. It was bizarre news for sure and denied by Apple, but at least the company is doing something about it. 

If there's one thing you should know about smartphone releases, most Chinese brands love releasing them every quarter or twice a year. However, Apple still refrains from doing so and will only release its latest iPhone flagships every year and Brut media managed to ask that question to Apple CEO Tim Cook on that matter.

Samsung may be taking a page out of Apple’s book with its upcoming smartphone flagship, the Samsung Galaxy S24 series. Just like the Apple iPhone 15 Pro series, all of the Galaxy S24 devices will allegedly feature titanium bodies.

Google has dominated the search engine area in the past two decades. However, that might change soon. A leak suggests that Apple is working hard on developing its search engine.

Apple has finally addressed the iPhone 15 series' overheating issues, promising that the problem will be fixed in an upcoming update. In a press release, the tech giant said it has identified the cause of the issue, which it claims to be software-related.

Apple has released iOS 17, iPadOS 17, watchOS 10 and tvOS 17 already, but not for macOS Sonoma until today. So Mac users, you can now get your hands on the latest software update through over-the-air (OTA) in the settings.

The new Apple Store has been a popular topic in mid 2023 and we just got more information about it. As you recall, reports have suggested that the new store will be located at the upcoming The Exchange TRX and according to a YouTube video, we may have our first look.

One of the major upgrades of the iPhone 15 series is the change from Lightning to USB-C, though the EU’s new law may have forced Apple’s hands on the matter. However, despite Android and iOS devices now using the same port, recent reports from China claim that users are discouraged from using Android cables to charge their iPhone 15 series smartphones.

In case you didn't know, Apple has added two new iCloud+ plans for iCloud users. Besides the iPhone 15 series announcement, these two new plans are now available (recently launched on 18 September 2023) and you can subscribe to either the 6TB or 12TB iCloud+ package.

Today, the new iOS 17, iPadOS 17, watchOS 10 and tvOS 17 are available to download and install on your Apple devices. There are a couple of new features in each respective operating system, so without further ado, do check out below on the breakdown below.
