iOS 5.1 beta is being seeded to developers
iOS 5.0.1 could be considered a failure to some especially since it did not solve battery woes for some iPhone users. The good news is that Apple has recently seeded a beta of iOS 5.1 to developers, which we’re hoping could indicate that there might be a possibility of an update/fix to solve the battery woes.
Based on the release note, it does not seem that Apple has plans to fix the battery problems or add further support for Siri with iOS 5.1, but given that it’s a pre-release beta, we expect that more beta builds will be pushed out over time and hopefully the battery issue will be fixed further down the line.
This seems to have completely busted the rumor that was making its way around the internet. It was suggested a while back that Apple had two updates they were planning to push out – iOS 5.0.2 that would fix the battery draining problem and iOS 5.1 that would be a major update with additional Siri support. It looks like those rumors turned out to be false, either that or Apple decided to just forge ahead with iOS 5.1, bypassing iOS 5.0.2 completely.
Now here’s an iPhone 6S case that will certainly turn heads, especially when you take into consideration its name which is known as the OnePlus iPhone 6S case. That’s rather weird, don’t you think so? It will certainly take some getting used to before the name rolls off your tongue naturally. Well, we do know that The OnePlus iPhone 6S case can now be purchased for $19.99 a pop, and no, you do not need any kind of invite before you can snag one for yourself.
Each purchase will also be accompanied by an invitation to purchase a OnePlus X, just in case, you know, you would like to tread the Android waters. All in all, it comes in the kind of material as found on the OnePlus One and OnePlus X, which makes it a whole lot harder to lose grip of when you hold it – which is good!
If you are on the lookout for either the iPhone 6S or the iPhone 6S Plus, then here is news for you – chances are pretty high that you can pick up either one, or perhaps even both if you are feeling fat in the pocket, this coming September 18th. First of all, there was a leaked internal memo from Vodafone alongside Japanese site ITHome and German tech experts Macerkopf claiming that the new iPhones 6S models will roll out this coming September 18th in their respective countries
With Japan, Germany and the UK being tier one Apple launch countries, this means that those living in the mentioned countries will receive the iPhones at the same time as folks living over in the US – traditionally speaking, of course. There really isn’t that much time left to wait, as it is less than a month away, and I am quite sure that the time will pass by sooner than you think.
It looks like the folks over at Digitimes have come up with their own interpretation of things to come – that there will be no iPad Air 3 released, at least for this year. Digitimes has had their fair share of hits and misses in the past, so it would be best to take this rumor concerning the non-release of the iPad Air 3 in 2015 with a pinch of salt.
Digitimes also laid claim that the iPad mini 4 will not be as supercharged as some of the rumors that had been going around, as it will bring with it only small and incremental upgrades when compared to its predecessor, the iPad mini 3. This does not seem to bode well for fans of the compact tablet, taking into consideration how the iPad mini 3 itself was improved over its predecessor with a new Touch ID fingerprint reader.
Since Apple tends to roll out a new iPad in October, we will just have to sit tight and see whether this particular rumor has enough “legs” to run.
