As the iOS 7 user interface was revealed this month, users made quick assumptions about what the next-generation software would look like on the tablets of the Apple mobile family. As the software was, at first, only shown on the iPhone 5 during Apple’s developers conference WWDC 2013, it became rather quickly an often, asked
It was a big week in gadgets, and thus, a big TC Gadgets podcast it shall be. This week, we discuss developments at E3, including Xbox One and PS4 pricing, the death of Nokia’s Symbian OS, and of course, WWDC.
Will you buy a PS4 or an Xbox One? Does despair fill you from nose to navel when you remember the good old days of Symbian? Is the new iOS 7 design repelling, attractive, or some bizarre combination of the two? John Biggs, Matt Burns, Jordan Crook, Darrell Etherington, and Natasha Lomas touch on all of this and more.
Enjoy!
We invite you to enjoy our weekly podcasts every Friday at 3pm Eastern and noon Pacific.

Back in the days of the first iPhone (it wasn’t even called iOS yet), we couldn’t get third party apps or even move apps around. Now, we have a bigger screen and all these funktastic icons.
If you’re the sort of person who enjoys playing video games on-the-go, which of the following two announcements hit you harder this year: iOS 7 bringing standardized controllers to Apple’s mobile devices, or NVIDIA SHIELD? The NVIDIA device is a whole unit in and of itself, while Apple’s announcement was all but missed by everyone
This week, Apple released its first-ever instructions for designing and developing a game controller for use with Apple products. The evidence suggests that Apple is gearing up take gaming beyond the confines of its products. It’s going to condone console-style game development. And today’s game controller for iOS 7 could mean that tomorrow’s Apple TV is a full-on gaming platform.
Buying official accessories is usually an expensive affair, even if it for something as simple as a charging cable, which is why it is not surprising that there are some who turn to third-party, and sometimes unofficial, alternatives in a […]
