After more than 15 years covering everything Apple, it’s with a heavy heart we announce that we will no longer be publishing new content on iMore and the iMore forums will be closing as of November 1st, 2024.
I think the OP also failed to realize that it's not because people can now afford the iphone, but the smartphone market exploded when the iphone came out. We all now crave having a mini supercomputer in our pockets that are connected to the world 24/7. Before that smartphones were a small...
I would say you are probably wrong. Plenty of people don't have windows phone :p. Besides, there have always been windows phones at the $200+ price tag even back to the days of windows mobile over half a decade ago. IE; the HTC titan 2 and Samsung focus S are currently $199.
No matter how great the next iPhone is, it will never be worth paying $2000 for because there are comparable smartphones out there with the same if not better hardware for the same $200-300 subsidized price as always. Sure you get ios but android isn't far off and for some people much more...
He's right though, if your account got hacked that's a problem on your end, not google's fault. As a long time user of aol, msn, and yahoo I'm glad I switched to google services (at least for my main account). It has been much more reliable for the past few years. I've even used google voice as...
Yeah this bumper is more slippery than the Apple one. I was using the phone naked since launch day even though I bought an incipio feather so the grip is still better than nothing. I got an Apple bumper 2 weeks ago because I was sick of losing signal. Even with boiling and using side skins it...
I received mine and I like it. It's NOT the iLuv ones. It's just a basic ring of TPU or silicon but I'm actually preferring this to my Apple bumper. Slimmer, fits much tighter, and 3rd party chargers/accessories aren't blocked. The sleep/wake button is hard to press with it on but I don't use it...
Yep the sleep button is pretty hard to press with the case on. The volume buttons are slightly harder but not too tough. I wake my phone with the home button and let the display time out on its own so not a big deal.
I do prefer this case to my apple bumper though. It's slimmer (probably half...
Personally curved edges let me contact the back with more surface area from my hand. And the plastic of the old design had a bit more grip than the glass of the iphone 4. It's much more slippery to me. This has nothing to do with aesthetics though. The new design quickly grew on me and makes...
Not sure I'd keep the form factor exactly the same as the 3GS but I understand what you're saying. Although it's thinner the sharp edges just don't feel as natural than curved edges in my hand.
I switched from an HTC Evo myself and have been using an android port on my windows mobile phone for the last couple months before that. There's pros and cons to both sides but ultimately I went with Apple because of app quality/selection. I have no doubt android will get there one day, but it...
Naked for now. Waiting on a screen/back protector. If the reception issue doesn't get resolved I may opt for a zagg like protector on the sides (if it prevents it?). The only case I'd opt for is the incipio feather if it comes down to it.
What about a steinheil instead? Zaggs are tacky and have the orange peel effect like most wet application protectors. Steinheils are hard, cut precisely and come in several flavors including an oleophobic one. Closest thing to bare glass.
I'm guessing Apple stores will have a lot more than AT&T, but more people will flock to them as well. Also, would AT&T stories vary in stock based on the location? There's a few around here that don't seem like they would have many customers. But I'm afraid that just means they will only have a...
