There are just some things that Apple needs to either add or fix that would even make me consider looking at the iPhone 6. The first thing I personally would want to see in the upcoming iPhone is a larger display with an updated resolution. The no.1 reason Android has pulled me back time and time again are the various display sizes.

I am constantly writing, taking notes and snapping photos and even though the iPhone has a good keyboard and camera didn’t jar me that much to stay with iOS. Android always gave me options on those areas so I stuck with them. Hopefully Apple fulfills the screen gap and adds various more sizes or at least 4.7-5 inches to reach a broader audience.

Another thing I would like to see coming to iOS is home screen widgets. Usually people would say if you wanted widgets then stay with android. Then that would usually end the conversation. But I honestly believe that Apple could potentially benefit from adding widgets to there upcoming iOS 8. Yes you could always jailbreak your device but once Apple finds out about the exploit used to make the jailbreak they usually patch it in the upcoming if not runner-up software update. So hopefully it’s implemented in iOS 9 if not 8.

The most dreadful thing that could happen to you in the middle of the workday is a dead battery. Usually you would just plug in the phone to the charger, but what if you don’t have a charger or your out making errands. You can’t always connect your phone to a charger and the external battery cases hat up and are quite bulky. There are fixes to this to elongate your battery life but why go through life hacks just to squeeze a little bit more juice out of your phone. At least a 2,000 mAH battery should treat the iPhone 6 nicely.

iSwipe-Keyboard-iOS7

Lastly the keyboard. Up above is a Cydia tweak called iSwipe which allows the user to swipe from letter to letter to make a word or fulfill sentences. It’s innovative, fast and quite accurate. I sincerely hope Apple adds this feature to iOS 8. There is nothing more annoying than when you have give a quickly reply to a text or email and you have to play woodpecker with your screen to get the message typed. That’s why Apple should implement this into the software or make something similar to iSwipe to the iPhone’s keyboard. It would relieve some headache’s from Apple’s iOS trend of “If it’s not broke, don’t fix it”.

Those have been the top feature that I would like to see in the iPhone 6 “Air”. The new generation iPhone is expected to be announced at WWDC 2014 in September so we will find out then. But if you can’t wait the iPhone 5S and 5C are still available on Apple’s website.

Every year some new tablet comes out with killer specs, killer hardware or both. Yet none of them seem to actually “kill” the iPad. Why is that exactly? Well its because Apple does care about the spec race at all. They care more about what the crowd wants and how it ties in with there current plans. Lets take the iPad 3rd generation for example. Released back in 2012. Everyone wanted an iPad yet no one wanted to pay for one with its large price tag. Meanwhile Google was holding hands with Asus and brought the Google Nexus 7 to light. It was the must have android tablet of the year with specs didn’t match the the price tag at all, and hardware to match the software. It was called the “iPad Killer” back then yet the iPad remains. Well that’s something Microsoft is here to fix.

The new Surface Pen is innovative yet elegant like the pen itself.

Microsoft’s next iteration of the Surface Pro lineup is stellar. It comes with a 12 inch diagonal IPS LCD display with a pixel count of 216 ppi. But the screen is not what keeps is so fantastic. It’s the new Intel chipset that is inside. The Surface Pro 3 comes packing the new Intel Core i3, i5 or i7 dual core chip clocked at 1.6GHz and 2.9 GHz in turbo mode. Now compare that to Apple’s dual core A7 chip clocked at 1.4 GHz. Even though Apple’s A7 chip is 64bit it honestly does not matter if the software does not take advantage of the architecture. To further the Surface Pro’s details it comes with an abundant 8GB of RAM compared to the iPad’s measly 1GB of RAM. With that kind of power you might call it a laptop in a tablet’s body. It also features a microSD card slot for memory expansion, USB 3.0 port, a Surface Pen or stylus, and a keyboard dock to transform it into a laptop computer. All of which Apple’s current model does not offer. Now enough the geeky internals, lets get to what the average Joe would want.

Weighing at 798 grams it is quite hefty in weight for a tablet compared to the . However when you consider the all the Microsoft packs in it you wouldn’t mind. The exterior of the Surface Pro 3 is made of magnesium compared to Apple’s iPad Air aluminum, making it no cheap plastic Samsung hardware and very durable. The magnesium feels great in the hand and cool to the touch in the morning when you pick it up and it doesn’t over heat when doing anything graphic intense unlike the iPad which overheats while watching a movie or charging overnight. The last thing I should mention is the price tag. Now on release it does cost a whopping $800, and the dock costs an extra $130 compared to Apple’s $500 for there latest and greatest. That may sound outlandishly expensive but when you consider all the pro’s and cons of the Surface Pro 3, you would say that it is truly worth the money. The surface pro 3 is currently for preorder at microsoft.com/surface for $799 and the Apple iPad Air is for sale for $499 at apple.com/ipad

Last year Nokia has started a broad range of phablet named Lumia 1520 and this time they upgraded the previous one and made a new lumia 1530.

It is regarded as an excellent substitution of Nokia Lumia 1520. It is designed by Sheikh Imaduddin who presented one of the most famous I phones, I phone 6. It has a 6” phablet with 1080 p Ips display. It has 3 GB of RAM, 32GB of storage 20Mp camera on the rear of it prepared with OIS.

Like all the other phablets it is dust and water proof which would not let you worry about the minor problems related to usual phones. Its appearance and format is more like the Lumia1520 apart from the different spacing of Windows phone tiles. It has top and bottom covering, which is a bit unusual for Nokia Lumia series, of luxurious black colour along with a line of red colour. As far as its cost is concerned it is certainly heavy on the pockets of the customers.

Today Sony has revealed a chunk of information that’s going to have pro video and high ISO fans alike overwhelmed with joy. Sony has publicized pricing and availability for the full-frame Sony A7S mirror less camera, which it first revealed back at the National Association of Broadcasters trade show in April, and we’re happy to tell you that it’s more affordable than the rumor mill predicted.

SONY A7S 2

The actual price and the rumor have a difference of many dollars. After Sony revealed the launch back in early April, rumors had it that the Sony A7S was going to cost around US$3,450, a price reached at based on a fleeting product listing by a British retailer, and a comparison of Sony A7R pricing between the two countries.

SONY A7S

But it goes out that you’ll be able to pick up the A7S with a lens to convoy it for that price, it’s going to cost just US$2,500. So now you save many dollars out of the amount you put aside to get the Sony A7S.

These photos go hand and hand with the promo videos LG released last week and now we know that the back is indeed plastic. There speculation that LG would drop the hard plastic from the G2 for some type of Aluminum or maybe Magnesium. Then last week they released some promo videos that were not so clear on the material.
