When iOS 16 rolled out to the masses of iPhone users, many felt and reported that the battery life sort of got worse than before (including myself). However, that may change now with the new software update - iOS 16.1 which is now available to download.

In case you didn't know, there is a brand new Machines store in Pavilion Bukit Bintang and today is the grand opening launch. To celebrate the occassion, the store's special promotion on various Apple products is also on sale.

After announcing that a self-repair programme was in the works last November, Apple has finally launched the programme in the United States. Called the 'Apple Self Service Repair', it will be expanded to other countries beginning with Europe later this yeart.

Back in January 2022, Apple hosted a Shot on iPhone Macro Challenge globally and it has officially ended. Today, the company has chosen and unveiled the top 10 best iPhone macro photos from around the world taken from their iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max.

Every smartphone brand has an Instagram page where they show off the latest smartphone's photo quality online. In Apple's case, the company usually posts photos that are #ShotOniPhone by users instead of themselves. So to further promote iPhone users' photography skills, Apple is organising a macro photography Shot on iPhone Challenge.

As we approach the end of 2021, here are some fun facts of what Malaysians looked up for in Google Search. Since we are a tech news portal website (again, we are not a shop lol), we will take a good look at the top trending searches in gadgets and devices this year.

As much as I'm loving the macro mode on the iPhone 13 Pro, I also mentioned in the article that I wish there was a toggle for that so I can be in full control of my mobile photography experience. Thankfully, Apple will be implementing that in the next iOS 15.2 update and it's currently in beta testing.

Just past midnight last night, Apple has officially released the anticipated SharePlay feature in iOS 15.1. Besides that, the new software update also allows iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max users to capture ProRes videos and insert COVID-19 vaccination cards in their Apple Wallet. 

Starting from 8 October 2021 onwards, the Apple iPhone 13 series will be officially launched in Malaysia. If you haven't got yourself a unit yet, don't worry - there are plenty of retail stores offering them. Among these stores is none other than TMT by Thunder Match.

So what promotion are they holding? Plenty of them! In fact, those who managed to pre-order early are entitled to a special Thunder Premium Gift Box limited edition. The gift box includes Thunder Exclusive Vouchers worth RM400 as well as exclusive face masks and a sanitiser. Aside from that, those who purchase the latest iPad and iPad mini from TMT by Thunder Match will also get a special PwP promotion (more details at the bottom).

While the iPhone 13 series isn't getting much of a huge upgrade, one of the new features for the camera is Macro Mode that relies on the ultrawide sensor. Most people would use it for photography purposes but there is a doctor who uses it for eye treatment.
