Latest iPhone 5 rumours round-up



Heck, we're gettin' really excited for the iPhone launch coming in a fews days! For those who haven't found out yet, Apple officially sent out invitations to various media organizations on Tuesday saying, 'Let's talk iPhone'. Apple fanboys and girls all around the world are getting ready to be awed once more at the yearly release.

In the past, Apple has used its invitation to include cryptic hints as to what it will announce. The phrase on this year's invite, 'Let's talk iPhone,' may be a simple play on words, but may also refer to new speech-based features for the iPhone. Last year, Apple acquired voice-recognition application startup 'Siri' and added some voice-to-text features to iOS 4, so an enhancement to those features wouldn't be too surprising.

Also it's rumoured that the new iPhone won't be sporting the required hardware to enable it on the blazing-fast 4G LTE network. Instead you'll probably see something like the 4G lite, which is faster than 3G but slower than LTE (21Mbps vs. 7.2Mbps). What's the reason? The style and form factor to keeping it slim. Having LTE capabilities will require more bulk for the hardware, which we're sure Apple won't be considering doing anytime soon. Speaking of speed however, the new iPhone will most likely have an increase in processing power and an increase in the amount of RAM.

We would also like to add a note on our previous post about the iPhone, where it's rumoured that Apple may be releasing an iPhone 4GS instead of an iPhone 5. This still could be possible due to the fact that Apple has decided to hold the event at their headquarters this year, instead of renting out a larger venue in San Francisco. A setting for a low-key event for a lower-keyed release? Maybe.

Here are some other speculations on the specs you may see:

  1. 8-Megapixel Camera
  2. Larger Screen
  3. Full 1080p video recording
  4. Possible major redesign (thinner and tapered)
That's it! We'll keep everyone posted via our twitter handle: @blipthis, or pop over to our Facebook page and hit the 'Like' button for the latest.

You better believe we're going to report on the new iPhone when it's unveiled!!!

The HP Spectre x360 13.3" Touchscreen/Pen model (13-AC010CA)

The HP Spectre x360 13.3" Touchscreen/Pen (13-AC010CA) The Spectre x360 is the latest 13.3" product from HP that has a hinge that allows the screen to rotate a full 360 degrees, making it a great contender for your 2-in-1 portability pursuit. The major difference here is that it doesn't have a detachable keyboard, and just maybe that in tablet mode  grabbing at the keyboard on the backside makes it a little awkward to hold. Not a deal breaker though. Unboxing Experience Right from the get-go you know you're dealing with something serious. HP knows that the unboxing experience is just as important as the experience with the laptop itself, and they didn't skimp out. One look at this box and you're jittering with excitement! What Comes Inside The Box You'll be glad to know that the HP Spectre x360 comes fully loaded . Inside the box you get: HP Quick USB-C charger Leather like carrying case (custom, with pen holder!) HP Stylus ...

Acer Aspire E5-575G-55NW 15.6" laptop REVIEW

Overview The Pros: Great battery life (up to 10-12 hours per charge) 256 GB SSD Hard Drive (we love the silence of a solid state hard drive!) Thin and portable enough 15.6" 1080p HD display screen (1920 x 1080) Dedicated NIDIVIA 940MX 2GB video card Intel i5 - 7 series processor The low price point The Cons: Trackpad feels a little cheap, too "bouncy-clicky" Display screen seems just a little bit dim, even on full brightness setting Overall: 3.7/5 STARS A great budget laptop that packs a punch! Made for the number cruncher, the student who values the balance between portability and performance, or the everyday person who likes watching a lot of videos and playing the casual game. The Physical The Acer Aspire E15 generally feels great in the hand when it's folded and carried it around. Despite having about 2 times the thickness of a MacBook Air, Acer did a great job at keeping the weight down to be able to say...

Upgrading to iPhone X from iPhone 6S Plus

The iPhone 6s Plus has been my daily driver for the past few years and for good reason. It's been reliable, fast, and its screen size never had me yearning for more. Fast forward to today in 2019 and I've decided to upgrade myself to the iPhone X and it's been amazing so far. I love the sleek design of the white one, and the dual camera is great. However, I wouldn't say that the whole experience has been life changing, and here's why: Essentially Same User Interface It really is true what everyone says, the same old dated home screen you get on the previous generations is present in the X. This can be good for someone who wants the upgrade with the modern hardware, but the comfort of already knowing how to navigate the phone. For me personally, it makes the phone feel less exciting. The exciting bit of it is the home button is gone and you now swipe up to get back to the home screen. Only Slight Speed Differences The iPhone 6S Plus was the flagship model ...
