![4.7 inch And 5.5 inch iPhone Models Could Feature Different Resolutions [Rumor]](https://i0.wp.com/cdnrss.ubergizmo.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/iphone-6-side.jpg?resize=640%2C429 "4.7 inch And 5.5 inch iPhone Models Could Feature Different Resolutions [Rumor]")
We’re sure many are wondering about Apple’s iPhone plans for the year. If the rumors are to be believed, Apple could launch two iPhones this year – one in the 4.7-inch variety and the other in a 5.5-inch variety. The rumors are also suggesting that the phones will be launched separately which is a little odd but this sentiment has been echoed by KGI Securities analyst, Ming-Chi Kuo, who has had a good track record when it comes to making Apple-related predictions.
According to Kuo, he believes that both phones will sport different resolutions. The 4.7-inch model will come with a resolution of 1334×750, while the 5.5-inch model will get a 1920×1080 Full HD display. Naturally with the higher resolution, the pixel density of the 5.5-inch model will be higher. The good news is that Apple is expected to maintain the same aspect ratio as the iPhone 5 so developers won’t have to redesign their apps again. (more…)

Recently KGI Securities analyst, Ming-Chi Kuo, released a research note that revealed some information regarding Apple’s upcoming plans for the rest of the year. Some of those plans were shown briefly in a slide in our previous post that revealed what Kuo thought could be Apple’s roadmap for the year.
According to the roadmap, Kuo believes that Apple could be refreshing the iPad Air and iPad mini in Q3 2014, but what sort of upgrades could we be looking forward to? Well for starters we’d expect that both tablets will be getting a boost in performance, naturally, but in addition to that, Kuo reports that both the iPad Air and the iPad mini are set to get Touch ID fingerprint sensors as well.
Touch ID originally debuted with the iPhone 5s and thanks to alleged photos leaked at that time, it was rumored that Touch ID could be making its way onto the iPad as well, although that did not turn out to be true, but it is possible that Apple wasn’t ready yet at that time. Kuo also states that he believes the A8 processor will also debut in both tablets and that the iPad Air 2 could include an upgraded 8MP rear-facing camera as well.
Kuo also touched briefly on the rumored iPad Pro which will allegedly come with a 12.9-inch display. The rumored device was left out of Kuo’s roadmap because he expects that the tablet will only debut in 2015 and that Apple is currently working on a new interface that has been designed for the larger tablet.
Once again we have to state that these are an analyst’s opinion and they are not necessarily facts, but given Kuo’s track record, which has been pretty spot-on, perhaps some of it might prove to be true after all.

![High End iWatch Could Cost Several Thousand Dollars [Rumor]](https://i0.wp.com/cdn2.ubergizmo.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/iwatch-concept-moyano-wrist.jpg?resize=600%2C413 "High End iWatch Could Cost Several Thousand Dollars [Rumor]")
In an earlier Apple roadmap as prepared by KGI Securities analyst, Ming-Chi Kuo, it was suggested that Apple could be launching the much-rumored iWatch in a couple of different sizes. One of the sizes is rumored to be of the 1.3-inch variety, and the other will be ever-so-slightly larger at 1.5-inches.
According to Kuo, the features of the iWatch are more or less the same as what we have been hearing so far, which is that they will be health-related through iOS-exclusive health monitoring apps. He also states that the devices will utilize a sapphire cover and flexible AMOLED display panels which seems to be in line with the rumors we have been hearing about.
Kuo also believes that design will play a big part in differentiating the iWatch from the competition. As we have seen in the past, smartwatches typically feature pretty “boring” square-ish designs, save for the Moto 360 which was a real treat for the eyes. Apple could also be going that route and utilize a variety of different materials for its casing and the watch band.
In fact, and this sounds very unlikely, Kuo states that there could even be a premium model that will fetch as much as several thousand dollars which is the price one can expect from a luxury brand mechanical watch.
When the Samsung Galaxy Gear was first launched, the price of the device was something that many criticized Samsung for, so we can only imagine how customers will react to a smartwatch that costs thousands of dollars, especially in an industry that continuously seems upgrades and improvements made every couple of months.
Take it with a grain of salt for now but what do you guys think of Kuo’s predictions? Believable?

If you’re an iOS user converting to Android, there are probably some iOS-exclusive apps that you might miss, one of them being Mailbox. Well the good news is that if you were wondering when the app would arrive for Android, wonder no more because Mailbox has since launched for Android is available for download for free via Google Play.
The app will function just like its iOS counterpart and for those unfamiliar with the app, Mailbox is essentially another email client that sports a very clean and simple interface. It makes use of gestures, like swiping, to either delete a message, archive it, or set it to snooze to remind you to check up on it later.
The app has also received a new feature called auto-swipe which is basically where the app will learn your preferences and actions and will be able to snooze or archive messages automatically to help you become more efficient at managing your email. Personally I’d rather manage my emails myself but for those who love automation, perhaps this is a feature that might be of interest to you.
This feature will take advantage of Dropbox’s cloud services to help sync your preferences across devices, so if you use Mailbox on other devices like tablets or a second smartphone, you won’t have to teach it all over again.
The developers have also announced that Mailbox will finally be arriving for the Mac albeit in beta form and if you’re interested in participating in the beta, hit up Mailbox’s website for the details.

One of the more customizable features of Android is the ability to theme it however you want, and the best part is that depending on the level of customization, you might not even need root access to be able to do it. This is compared to other platforms like iOS, Windows Phone, and BlackBerry 10 which are more rigid, where customization is basically changing the wallpaper and the ringtone.
However it seems that during a poll conducted by CrackBerry, they have found that the majority of those who participated in the poll want the ability to theme their BlackBerry 10 handsets. The votes came in at over 60%, while the remaining numbers were kind of split in the middle between saying no to theming, and that it doesn’t matter.
We guess this is particularly important to BlackBerry users because with BlackBerry 7, users could download themes or create their own themes if they wish. It’s that level of personalization that really gets a user to feel more connected to their phone, and maybe even to the brand which can help create loyalty.
Unfortunately it seems that theming is not a feature that BlackBerry is concentrating on at the moment, at least not for BlackBerry 10, but who knows, perhaps it might arrive at a later date, but in the meantime what do you guys think? Do you wish that you could create or download BlackBerry 10 themes?

Given Apple’s secretive nature, we can only speculate and assume what Apple has planned for release this year, and the next, and so on. However according to KGI Securities analyst, Ming-Chi Kuo, he has recently put together a slide showing what he expects Apple’s roadmap to be for 2014.
According to Kuo, he expects that towards the end of Q2 2014, Apple will introduce an upgrade to the iMac, possibly at low cost. During Q3, he expects that both the iPad Air and the iPad mini will be getting an upgrade which dispels rumors that Apple could be killing off the iPad mini.
During Q3 Kuo also expects that Apple will launch the rumored iWatch and that it could come in two sizes. One will be of the 1.3-inch display variety and the other of a 1.5-inch variety, and both will come with a flexible AMOLED display. Q3 is also when the 4.7-inch iPhone 6 is expected to make its debut.
Come Q4, Kuo thinks that Apple will be announcing an upgrade to its Apple TV, which we guess is due for an upgrade. The rumored 12-inch MacBook is also expected to make its debut early Q4 along with MacBook Pro upgrades as well which is interesting as Apple typically makes computer-related announcements at WWDC. Last but not least is the 5.5-inch iPhone which he thinks could debut towards the end of the year.
We should note that this isn’t the official roadmap and it is one put together by an analyst who thinks that this is what Apple has planned for the rest of the year. However Kuo has been pretty reliable in the past when it comes to providing insider knowledge regarding Apple’s products, so perhaps there might be some truth to his claims, but to be on the safe side, you might want to take it with a grain of salt for now.
