Apple launched the iPhone 5s in India back in November 2013. Two years later, its price has now dropped significantly. for the 16GB version, does the iPhone 5s still make a good deal? Of course, it’s not the latest and greatest version Apple’s smartphone. We’ve already seen four new ones since, the iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6s and the 6s Plus. At a time when smartphones become irrelevant and outdated quickly, should you be spending money on a two-year-old device? The best small size phone deal Right now, if you’re considering an Android smartphone, you have two options: a small-sized…

I know this one stings a little, but the iPhone 5 was kind of a joke. After years of standing by the “nobody wants a bigger phone” line, Apple finally relented and gave us another half inch of screen real estate. Wow, thanks a bunch, guys! The move from a 3.5-inch display to a 4-inch display was awesome for about 15 minutes, and then it was too small again. It was like asking for a pair of JNCO jeans from your parents but getting Lee Pipes instead. What a disgrace. Do you have any idea how many times I had to lie to my friends and say, “This is the perfect size, really”? I’m…

We ve lent our ears to a massive range of Bluetooth speakers so we can let you know just which is worth buying to boost your listening experience. In this day and age, there s really no excuse to make do with the disappointing, lacklustre sound from your smartphone or tablet. As phones and tablets get thinner and thinner, the speakers have less room to work with – meaning sound quality becomes just as thin as well. A Bluetooth speaker can be a simple and effective audio upgrade that doesn t have to break the bank (unless you want it to). A simple Bluetooth speaker can be used…

Apple s stores open at 8am across the UK on Friday September 16, which is normally the earliest time that customers can buy the device. Will I actually be able to buy one? You will not be able to buy an iPhone 7 Plus in any colour or the iPhone 7 in jet black when Apple s stores open tomorrow, as these models sold out online during the pre-order period. You may, however, be able to get one of the sold out models from different retailers. Apple issued the following statement about which phones will be available on Friday: Beginning Friday, limited quantities of iPhone 7 in silver…

Turn the handset on its sides and you ll notice some minor alterations. To accommodate the CDMA antenna, the ringer mute switch on the left side has been moved slightly closer to the volume controls. It makes no difference in usability, but the change means that most current iPhone 4 cases, including the bumpers that Apple gave out for free last summer, won t fit properly. Over on the right side, the SIM card slot has vanished because the handset runs on CDMA. Apple moved the Verizon iPhone s ringer mute switch closer to the volume controls. In its place is the antenna gap that…

Go big or go home: Apple’s iPhone 7 Plus, with its amazing dual cameras, is the one to buy. At long last, the iPhone 7 and the iPhone 7 Plus are here, and yes, everything you’ve heard is true. There’s no headphone jack, you can dunk the new iPhones in water, and the camera on the iPhone 7 Plus can perform all sorts of magic tricks. Otherwise, the changes are quite subtle. We’ve been using the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus since they came out in September. We gave both the iPhone 7 and the iPhone 7 Plus stellar reviews, which you can read in full below. Here’s everything you need…

Long-suffering T-Mobile customers rejoice — you can finally buy the iPhone 5 from your favorite carrier. T-Mobile on Tuesday announced that it would start selling Apple’s (AAPL) popular iPhone 5 for just $99 starting on April 12th. While there’s no standard two-year service agreement, you will have to pay T-Mobile an extra $20 over a 24-month span to fully pay off the cost of the device. At the same time, such gradual payments should prove to be very attractive to customers especially since they’re letting you pay less up front. Customers also have the option of paying the full…

Rafi Letzer/Tech Insider The reviews are unanimous: Samsung s new Galaxy S7 is an amazing phone. In my own review, I had nothing but nice things to say about the S7. It looks great. It s waterproof. It has the best camera ever put in a smartphone. It makes the incredible world of VR accessible to more people than any other gadget. But as much as I loved the Galaxy S7, there s still one thing that keeps me from recommending it over the iPhone. iOS. iOS has the best apps, the most consistent updates over the lifespan of your device, and the most dedicated army of developers dreaming…

Personally, I rather like the look of both handsets. They’re thin, almost too thin in the iPhone 6 Plus’ case, feel premium to the touch, and are very easy on the eye. They both still look like iPhones, though, so if you weren’t a fan of the iPhone 5 or iPhone 5s chances are you’re not going to a fan of these devices, either. But if you do like impossibly thin handsets that are massive then the iPhone 6 Plus is perhaps right up your street. For a lot of traditional iPhone users the iPhone 6 Plus might be too big a jump from Apple’s usual 4in iPhones. I think this handset is…

Samsung may run into even more problems with the S6, as there are tons of affordable, excellent Android-powered phones. The problem is, American shoppers have been sold the idea that an Apple iPhone or Samsung Galaxy costs between $100 and $400. Even Apple plays the game: When it revealed the last year, it trumpeted prices ranging from $199 to $399. The words Two-Year Contract were tacked on below, almost as an afterthought. Apple s site doesn t even mention contracts when it lays out the same prices. Even Apple.com lists the carrier-subsidized prices, creating the impression…

As regularly as clockwork, thoughts start to turn towards the new 2017 iPhone - but before we get too excited about what Apple s got in store, let s take a moment to reflect on what it s released since the very first iPhone back in 2007. How many of these iconic handsets and new, innovative features can you remember? iPhone (2007) It s difficult to overstate the impact the iPhone has had on the smartphone market: by eschewing the keypad for a touchscreen and adding advanced computer-like capabilities that hadn t been seen before, it set the standard for this modern device…

This development arrives amid speculation that the device could be officially unveiled during a private event on Sept. 7. Following Apple’s past habits, many tech analysts assumed that a finished product would be on store shelves just two weeks later on Sept. 16. However, it looks like the Cupertino kids may be shirking tradition for their next big mobile iteration The hard evidence comes in the form of a leaked Merchandise Reset schedule for AT&T retail stores. Per the document, major changes are set to take place Sept. 9 and Sept. 23. While there are no direct mentions…
