This week Tim Cook took the stage at an Apple event that would reveal not one, but two new iPhone devices. The first of these is the iPhone 5C. This device along with the second iPhone have been revealed to be part of a new model from Apple which will have them replacing the iPhone […]
Apple has kicked off the fall event and like we often see in the beginning, there was some talk in regards to numbers. Those were quickly run through and talk of iOS 7 began. In this case, it was said that Apple has “been working hard on completing iOS 7.” And perhaps key here, that […]
It was back during WWDC 2013 when Apple announced the biggest change to iOS since the iPhone was first introduced in iOS 7. During the event, Apple highlighted many of the changes that would be made to iOS 7, which included a flatter design, an improved UI and a number of additional features. One thing Apple didn’t announce at the time was when exactly iOS 7 would be made available across iOS devices, but during today’s event, the company revealed when exactly you should be getting the iOS goodness.

It’s that time again folks. Today is officially iPhone day as Apple has just kicked off their event in Cupertino where they’ve promised to brighten up everybody’s day with some new gadgets. With loads of leaks from hardware, sensors, cases and more, we’re just minutes away from knowing all the details. As usual, Apple has […]
There’s little doubt that Futuremark – folks responsible for creating the benchmarking app 3DMark – decided on syncing up the release of their gamer-aimed test with the release of Apple’s new iPhone (or iPhones). What you’ve got here is a set of two tests with lots and lots of variables, all of it already released […]
Bi-Cord Cable w/ Lightning and 30-pin Connectors: Charge & Charge & Sync…& Sync?
Posted in: Today's ChiliApple’s introduction of the Lightning connector means that people like me who have both a new and an old iOS device have more cables to keep track of and less USB ports to plug them into. If you’re looking for a simple and cheap solution, have a look at the Bi-Cord. But just look at it, don’t put down money for it just yet.
The Bi-Cord has a USB connector at one end. Then it splits into two cords, one with a 30-pin connector and one with a Lightning connector. Future versions could have connectors for other devices such as a micro-USB. Its inventor, Patrick Graham, claims that the Bi-Cord can be used to charge two devices at once. What I don’t know is if the cord can also sync two devices at once. The cords are each 6′ long and are made of braided nylon for added durability.
Pledge at least $15 (USD) on Kickstarter to get a Bi-Cord as a reward. On one hand, that’s a good deal, considering Apple sells its cables for $19 each. On the other hand, if I were you I’d wait until Patrick reveals more information about the Bi-Cord’s parts, particularly if Patrick uses Apple-certified connectors. Because if the connectors are not certified all we have here could be two broken cables in one.
In a very short amount of time we’ll be headed to Cupertino to have a look at what Apple will be offering up in their newest event – starting at 10AM PST. You’ll be able to follow along with SlashGear the whole event long through our SlashGear liveblog portal, complete with all the content you’ll […]
It would appear that the folks at accessory makers X-Doria have let the cat out of the bag a bit early with cases for the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C. While it’s possible that these cases were made with early models of these devices in-hand, it’s a bit more of a push for reality when […]
Ubisoft released Rayman Legends on PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita and Wii U just last week which we’re hopeful you haven’t completed yet, especially if you’re the kind of person who wants to squeeze every bit of content available in the game. If you happen to have completed the game and are looking for more Rayman goodness, you’ll be happy to know Ubisoft plans on publishing a follow-up to Rayman’s mobile game, Rayman Jungle Run. (more…)
