Pretty sure that's not going to be the iPhone 6. A 4.7" display with 2011 bezels and 9mm taller than a Moto X, making the top right area unreachable without 2 hands? I think that's giving Apple's hardware team no credit at all. I don't expect bez…

It's interesting what Apple will do as they certainly seem to be interested in getting into payments, with the goal of having transactions through their network be counted eventually as card present vs. card not present. So Apple has a pretty big u…

Didn't the court already rule the disclosure by Quinn Emanuel to be inadvertent and require the law firm to pay penalties? I believed it's a settled matter, regardless of opinion. The accidental disclosures by Apple are being brought up to reduce …

Apple remains a money making machine, but like everyone else, faces slowing growth. No one apparently can escape the growing market saturation. The market is probably over-reacting to Apple's Q2 guidance of basically flat revenue y/o/y.

These articles are the worst type of tripe - anyone calling Google or Samsung's 2013 as failures instantly loses all credibility, as much as those who talk about Apple's demise. You should be able to talk objectively about performance without turnin…

The spin in this article is painful. This isn't Samsung's mainstream phone, but something they've grown from a niche product to a line that will sell 40-50 million additional phones, all at the highest prices Samsung sells for. How exactly is 30 bi…

Based on GF's performance in the last 3 years in delivering products and nodes on time and at the yields needed, it's good Apple is using them only for overflow. The contractual arrangement AMD has with GF from their spin-off is probably one of the …

Smartphones, even stripped down ones, are one of the most empowering devices created. Watching emerging countries basically skip the infrastructure for wired communications and jump straight to mobile is astounding. Simply because Apple chooses no…

Ummm doesn't one need a bit more information? If one conglomerated OS sells 2-3X of the other OS, how does it make sense to compare percentages for switching? Say Android had 300 million phone sales last year vs 100 million for iOS (purely theoret…

1. I find it a bit disingenuous to lump in sales and "profits" from bit players who aren't turning profits to Samsung's numbers and then compare it to Apple. The only numbers that matter are the two companies making any real money - Samsung to Apple…

The supply constaints of the 5S are the only real concern here. It will be the more popular phone in most markets, especially the US. However with limited supply, Apple seems to want the 5C to pick up the slack and frankly a lot of people will rat…
