AppleInsider said: Today's report notes only 35 percent of initial iPhone SE buyers bought an iPhone online in the past two years. So... 35% of people bought an iPhone SE while probably still on contract with an existing iPhone?

A 2-3% battery life increase is still a fair bit. What they're really saying is that we intensively use the phone only part of the time. If you measured those intense use periods the battery life might increase 10% (eg: 5hrs goes to 5h30 of intens…

Video message?

This is a hands on review without more than a basic slide across the remote at the demo right? Looks like a good analysis summary, but no hands on really.

I haven't looked into the specifications for water proofing for 20 years, since I worked as a Divemaster. But I remember at the time that a watch pressure tested to 200m was given a 50m rating. Pressure testing to 100m (as my cheap watch was) was …

Does anyone else think there's not really much about the Apple Watch in this article, it's mainly about the phones?

I kind of wonder why the scanning components couldn't be separate to the watch. That way perhaps those health components could be built into a water proof band with a longer battery life (no screen & interface), and be usable in bed and in the p…

Where does wifi factor into this? And why aren't there multinational MVNOs? We need handsets that use wifi for most calls, switch to cellular very cleanly when wifi quality drops, and uses the stratosphere towers when out of cellular range (or to a…

Quote: your iPhone could analyze the signal strength of Wi-Fi networks around your house to determine approximately how far you are from each access point. You talk as if you can't do that already? It doesn't SHOW your location well, but it l…

There are actually other options Apple could pursue with A8 chips etc. * my comment above - an iPad with keyboard could look like a thinner MBA. * Take an AppleTV and combine it with a retina iMac... and you get a 4K smart TV. With iOS derived a…

I don't think they'll transition the Mac, at least not yet. The mere rumour and capability of transitioning will keep Intel providing cheaper chips to Apple too. On the other hand, I do think this can be looked at from the other angle, as an iPad …

I think the concept is great, but this doesn't quite get there. Good start. All our needs are slightly different, but it seems the Apple watch is a) a sensor device b) a display device Most of the attention is on the display of the ?Watch - but …

PayPass etc is very common in Australia. Tap card against terminal and you've paid (if less than $100), enter pin if >$100. If it works on PayPass/PayWave/ExpressPay/Europay - simply because it uses any of the NFC terminals and authenticates wi…

I like the app. I wonder if I should try SaneBox, seems to be similar?, but sticking here for now.
