Whilst I empathise with the sentiment of your reply, I suspect the picture is far more complicated than your reply suggests: The working conditions in a battery factory could be horrid, no place for the emerging middle classes, or are you suggestin…

I got shot down on this site last week for describing the gorgeously colourful 5c as the second best selling smart phone in the US.....sounds like I wasn't wrong.

If you opted to study computing in the last 10 years, pretty much anywhere in the world, you would of ended up on Microsoft centric training course....this has produced hoards of anti Mack computer geeks that have ended up heading IT departments, IT…

Really? Apple said that sales of the 5c were lower than expected? Or did they say the 5s represented a higher percentage of the mix than expected? If you look at the 5c from a manufacturing cost point of view, was the 5c not always intended to be t…

There used to be an adage that 90% of Word users use 10% of the features....I wonder if it is still true?

Is it possible that this buy is about buying IP, rather than an existing watch.....with all this frantic hoovering of tech by all Apples competition, it's hard to believe this isn't an important future product category.

It looks like the iPhone 5S has become THE aspirational phone to have. This alone accounts for the difference in sales between the 5s and 5c which seem to have taken Apple by surprise (I bet the 5c still sits in the top five sellers world wide) if …

What an interesting question: why doesn't Apple make a bigger screen phone? .....like thats never been discussed on AI.....could it be because Apple is stubbornly ignoring all market pressures to do so, at their cost?.....or perhaps they haven't d…

I am sick to death of reading page after page of Samsung related news on this site apparently because it is relevant to Apple and its products. How so ? This article is about a range of phones produced by Samsung. Apple make one phone, arguably …

I do wonder how wise an idea it was to give Jony Ive the freedom to design and have built what ever his heart desired. It looks like Apple has ended up with a phone and tablet that no more than a couple of firms (including one which is THE major …
