After having been released in a couple of iPad mini to “adult” iPad and iPhone 5C in a couple of iPhone 5S, the company Apple, apparently decided to beat a doublet in all spheres. So today, the world has not had time to chew on the news that the Beats goes kupertinovtsy possession, and Apple gives newsworthy again for news. This time the company bought hired Ari Partin, professionals working with cameras in PureView Nokia.

After Nokia, to be exact, unit dealing smartphones Lumia and Asha, finally came under the wing of Microsoft, the chief engineer to work with cameras decided to continue his career Redmond not what he said on his twitter tools.

May draw conclusions about the untimely passing vehicles Nokia Microsoft is still early, it’s just one person, but personally I think this development is quite revealing, because small-soft not cling to what they do, perhaps the best. Agree, it is high quality cameras largely allowed to keep afloat Lyumiyam not WindowsPhone same.

Well, the iPhone’s camera to improve due to the work of Mr. Partin also will not be superfluous, despite the fact that she, and so is one of the best on the market, because there is no limit to perfection. 41 MP is not like jokes. The main thing is that the new iPhone, given the recent news, did not look like this:

Before the announcement of the next iPhone model is still very much time, so while we do not got no leak, which could be done at least some conclusions. Float just rumors, and the rumors continue to produce concepts.

New concept published colleagues from MacRumors, based on rumors that the design of the iPhone 6 will take some decisions of iPhone 5c and iPod nano 7th generation. Together with artist Martin iCulture Hayek presented as he sees it. Painter is an artist not to be limited heard. Martin took from the player is slightly larger than stated in the rumors.

Creator also repelled by the idea of ​​increasing the display by 4.7 inches diagonal. Some rumors were talking about two different display: 4.7 and 5.7 inches. The greatest variation in this case is quite difficult to imagine. Although as comfortable to hold the unit in this case with display 4.7 – is not known.

Besides the hull shape and size, changes were noticed. The same set of colors, popular nowadays not only in Apple , Sensor Touch ID, and is the same camera location, connectors and holes.

Though it is said that the artist was inspired by player iPod, the result somehow reminded me of some smartphones from LG. I can not say that in this form iPhone looks bad, but also can not say that it is a smartphone want to see this fall.

Plastic. Glossy. Presented in the most bold and bright colors. Offering the most “leaky” cases for themselves. This iPhone 5c, cheaper smartphone Apple, facing the young and active users with a little more modest financial means. Apparently, Apple estimates differed somewhat from the fact that the company has at the moment in terms of sales.

This is not the nicest situation forces the company to focus on more active marketing, pouring large sums in advertising. No, the device is likely to be called a failure, but even Tim Cook noted that the demand for the device was slightly below analysts predicted the company. Perhaps the problem lies in the fuzzy positioning of the device, which is intended primarily for “switchers” from other platforms, wanting to try something new, while not wasting on flagship iPhone. However, iPhone 5c has never been considered as a kind of budget structure, which makes it even more mysterious positioning.

As a result, the buyer does not understand the need to purchase iPhone 5c, and Apple has to be constantly reminded of the existence of plastic and tsvetastenkoy version of its smartphone. Many cities in Europe and North America can be found advertising on iPhone 5c urban public transport stops. It looks like this:

Now readers of the music magazine The Rolling Stone can watch advertisements iPhone 5c, of course, no less “musical” filed. Color combinations and smartphone cover in advertising represent different music styles – pink with pink phone cover represents pop music, and the phone is green with a yellow cover is the best fit of reggae music lovers. In short, Apple remains true to itself – any advertising company is a small masterpiece of style and good taste.

Apple is now in some predicament. The company has never had to deal with promotion in the market two models iPhone, released in the same year – “iPhone” and “iPhone worse.” And how would you describe the iPhone 5c?

I hope that among those who will read this article, there are owners of iPhone 5C . That hope, because even though I truly admire this device, we must recognize that most are not honored by his attention. Talking about this sale, talking about this rumor , this speaks Tim Cook . The only thing I did not quite like it in the plastic model iPhone – it’s color schemes, but sometimes I really wish I had bought a white or green iPhone 5c. However, the available colors on the product – not the main reason for the low sales. Looking for the cause, and everyone has their own opinion on this matter.

Ken Segal, creator of the popular slogan «Think Different», never misses an opportunity to speak about his former employer. He has an opinion and at the expense of “failure” color model iPhone, told us about this resource iDownloadBlog. That’s what Ken wrote in his blog:

So what happened to the iPhone 5c? Now that it has existed long enough, you can probably draw some conclusions.

First of all, Steve Jobs was right. Apple – a company that does not produce consumer goods. It makes products for people who are important design, simplicity, quality and a good experience from the use of, and they are willing to pay for these things anymore. To compromise on any of these areas – a violation of the basic guidelines for the Apple.

Does the quality of the plastic? Not necessarily. In the end, the iPhone and used to make plastic. But when the iPhone began to look more expensive plastic retreated. It becomes clear that the creation of a new plastic models generate test marketing.

Apparently at Apple could not cope with this challenge. Companies were able to show that the iPhone 5c not cheaper, it’s more colorful. And with the knowledge that people have gone to buy iPhone 5s in the rich body color of champagne. Ken also rightly observed that the price difference is not enough palpable. Total $ 100 separates you from the smartphone, which has a Touch ID. I admit, it is the presence of this function was the determining factor in my choice, and I’m sure many are guided by the same.

What future for the unsuccessful model iPhone – is not precisely known, but they say that the future it will not have at all. If you, like me, plastic smartphone from Apple TV with no more than 4 inches seems more than appealing, there is a possibility that now is the time to buy one like this. If Ken Segal rights, and learned all the lessons Apple analysts, next year we are waiting semiprecious smartphones with big screens.

Neither rumor about Apple’s future products does not upset me as much as the latest rumors about the iPhone 6. A huge number of models with large screen on Android, as well as comments from readers AppleInsider.ru say that many people want a large screen in a smartphone, including in the iPhone, but there is another category of people. I personally believe that another Galaxy Note, but from Apple – this is not what I want.

Of course, you can keep hope for preservation of the current diagonal to the end of the presentation of the product, but we have to admit, the rumors about Apple products tend to come true, especially if they are published in the pages of The Wall Street Journal. This publication – not some “ayFantazery”, and do not publish information without good reason. But more to the point.

Apple plans to release a version of the iPhone with a diagonal of 4.5 inches above the display, and a second version with a display larger than 5 inches. Up to this point the biggest smartphone from Apple is the iPhone 5 with 4-inch display.

Popup confirmed earlier rumors published material, and according to the authors, a source you can trust.

According to the model with a smaller diagonal is longer in development, and is already preparing for mass production. Version with a larger diagonal at the stage of pre-development.

The only positive, it seems to me, the moment in the article Wall Street Journal, is a rejection of the idea of ​​a bent display. But there is another negative. According to rumors, the two iPhone models will be dressed in a metal case, and there is a question. How do iPhone 5C , which was released last fall? Is a new range of devices will not get a decent continuation? Turns out that way. Most resources which have already published the news, explain this rapid success cancellation low plastic model, but it has fans. Personally, I think iPhone 5c one of the best smartphones of the company in terms of design and ergonomics. Do not support the Apple users who are solidary with me?

If the rumors are true, the only place for iPhone 5c, which can be found on display in this place, which now occupies the iPhone 4s. Reduce the amount of memory up to 8GB, and finally transform the model in a budget solution. But what about the buyer who wants a compact camera with a great flagship masthead and iron, which is now the iPhone 5s? Among Android-smartphone no such solution, and apparently of smartphones from Apple, too, will not appear. Hopefully, the company will compensate the inconvenience of using a large smartphone release convenient wearable device .

Numerous sources, including 9to5Mac, reported that as early as next week, Apple will begin replacing broken screens iPhone 5c right in their retail stores. Planned to appoint the start of the service on January 20. This initiative has been worked for a few months, and finally the company coped with the organization of this service and the importation of spare parts shops.

For a man who dropped his iPhone 5c and smashed display, this may be the most convenient way to repair your phone. The procedure for replacing the screen on the iPhone 5c is simple and takes less than one hour. Falling smartphone – it is not a warranty case and for the replacement of broken glass will have to pay. The cost of services are likely to be $ 149 for those who do not participate in the program Apple care, replacement for the participants will be cheaper.

It is curious that iPhone 5s will not be served until, although the procedure for replacing the display there is a little different. Perhaps, iPhone 5s stronger his fellow plastic and plastic housing can be more slippery that provokes the fall. There is speculation that iPhone 5c more mass due to reduced cost. Can not say for sure, but anyway, it was starting to repair colored iPhone.

The launch of two representatives of the new generation iPhone has turned the most successful in the history of the smartphone. In just the first three days of sales Apple could implement nine million iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c worldwide, greatly improving not only the general statistics on sales, but also its impact on the global smartphone market. In order to calculate the share of the iPhone in certain countries and identify potential buyers gadget analyst firm Kantar Wordpanel ComTech conducted its own independent research and has recently introduced its results.

According to experts, in Europe continue to dominate the smart phones with the Android operating system on board, which hold more than 70 percent of the market. The share of Apple accounted for only 16%, 10% belong to the Windows Phone , and the rest – Chinese producers. IPhone share growth in different countries ranged from 2 to 8 percent. Most enviable figures boast Italy and the UK, and in Spain and Germany, they were minimal.

Due to a contract with the Japanese operator NTT DoCoMo in October Apple sold a record number of iPhone in the country and increased its stake to 76 percent. Impressive.

One of the few markets where the company suffered losses, surprisingly, turned out to be an American. In the U.S., iOS lost 8%, while Android and Windows Phone improved their performance compared with the previous year by 4% and 2% respectively.

In the study, the U.S. smartphone market revealed that almost half of the buyers iPhone 5c earns less than 49,000 dollars a year, that is actually more popular smartphone is in the budget segment. Among the owners of iPhone 5s number of people with small earnings is 21%.

It is noteworthy that the same half of the buyers before iPhone 5c enjoyed smartphones from other manufacturers like Samsung or LG. Apple tactics yet borne fruit, and the company was able to win over users of devices from competitors. With iPhone 5s picture is quite different – more than 80 percent of smartphone buyers upgraded from the previous model iPhone.

Rather, in December-January popularity of the iPhone will increase even more on the background of the upcoming Christmas holidays. As you know, during this period Apple gadgets are always most welcome gifts.

Resource Which? compared the battery life of new smartphones Apple iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c with some competitive solutions based on alternative platforms.

Amongst the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c took part in the test smartphones Samsung Galaxy S4 and Galaxy S4 Mini, HTC One and One Mini, BlackBerry Z10, Nokia Lumia 1020. The testing determines how long the device can operate from a single battery charge complete the implementation of conversations and web surfing via the 3G.

As a result, it was found that autonomy is a leader in the smartphone Samsung Galaxy S4. He demonstrated the best results in both tests 1051 minutes talk time and 405 minutes of web surfing. Moreover, the separation from the nearest competitor in the call duration was 26.6%. The second place in the overall ranking has taken the smartphone HTC One. He was second in the test for the duration of a call (771 min) and fourth in the test for the duration of web surfing (339 minutes). Finally, the bronze medal was the model Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini, which was able to work autonomously 746 minutes of talk time (third result) and 394 minutes of web surfing (the second result).

The device iPhone 5s found on the fourth position for the duration of a call (651 min), and the model iPhone 5c – in seventh (564 minutes). Test for battery life when web-surfing was a failure, smartphones Apple took it the last two places: 298 minutes at the iPhone 5s and 252 minutes in iPhone 5c.

The experts Which? note that while smartphones iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c are inferior competitors in terms of battery life, they still show better performance than the previous generation iPhone 5.

The other day iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c were next tested. Meticulous Finnish guys with the help of some robotic mechanism tested touchscreen smartphones above and came to a disappointing conclusion.

And to put it more precisely, that for Apple to disappointing conclusions. It all started with the fact that the Finnish company OptoFidelity, positioning itself as an independent, decided to check the accuracy of the touch screen of the touch to it. For this purpose, employees of the company was used unit of its own design, the full name is “The device to test the performance of the touch screen OptoFidelity». This mechanism simulates all possible user actions, including depression at the same time one or more fingers, scrolling, zooming in / out. Next, the device compares the actual coordinates of the press and coordinates defined by the microcontroller smartphone. If the difference is more than a millimeter, then the test is not passed. To simplify the perception of the result, it was visualized and presented in the following image:

Thus, the accuracy of the touch screen of the touch to it with both iPhone was considered “extremely poor.” By and large, it would not be so bad if it were not completely green picture with the caption Galaxy S3, which can not hurt the feelings of fans products Apple.

By the way, as a confirmation of employees OptoFidelity result of the fact that the letters Q, O and P, respectively Q, W and X, is not as easy to type as the others, because they fall into the “red” zone. By the way, anyone else amused that particular set of letters? But seriously, have you ever noticed anything like this?

Moreover, it is believed that the observed phenomenon is not a defect or a defect, but rather dignity iPhone. With the difference in the definition of the touch compensated “blunders” of the user. During the tests, smartphones arranged horizontally, but because in real life, the owners keep their device at an angle, use them on the go, making hard to take the necessary action. Thus, this technology gives users the right to be wrong, that is, run your application, even if there was no exact hit on the icon.

Separately want to tell you about the video that accompanies your company OptoFidelity test report. We give it to you. It is, of course, in English, but it does not matter. Just humanly incomprehensible: a test where the actual iPhone, or at least the “Champ» Galaxy S3?

In the video flickers only certain device with a suspiciously square interface. Personally, I have after watching this masterpiece left the impression that this is more advertising, “Device for testing the performance touch screen OptoFidelity» and nothing more.
