| Apple’s new A6 chip runs two ARM Cortex A15 cores, quad-core GPU Posted: 12 Sep 2012 06:51 PM PDT
Surprisingly enough, the iPhone 5 comes with Apple’s in-house A6 chip (labeled “S5L8950X”) rather than a souped up version of the A5X chip, as previously thought. Apple’s Tech Specs page for the iPhone 5 doesn’t even mention the A6 (a norm for Cupertino). The Compare iPhones page names the chip, however without divulging an iota about its architectural underpinnings. Likewise, Apple executives at today’s presser shied away from going into the technicalities like core counts and clock speeds and would only mention a twofold jump in CPU and GPU performance. It would nonetheless appear Apple has beaten the likes of Samsung and Texas Instruments in delivering the world’s first phone powered by ARM’s Cortex A15 CPU platform…(...)

| Everything you need to know about today’s iPhone 5 event Posted: 12 Sep 2012 05:58 PM PDT
The iPhone 5 is finally here. After Apple in 2011 unveiled the iPhone 4S — when everyone and his mother expected the iPhone 5 — the wizards of Cupertino introduced a smartphone for everyone. Want something smaller? Check. How about a big screen? Got you covered. Need power? No problem. Although this was the first post-Steve Jobs iPhone rollout, there was enough technology and geekitude on display today that even the Man in Black would have had a tough time fitting in just one more thing. Most of the rumors about the iPhone were confirmed. The iPhone 5 sports a 4-inch (1136 x 640) display enclosed in an aluminum and glass shell. That larger display is becoming defacto on smartphones. Not to be outdone designwise by Android, Apple pushed suppliers to use an in-cell manufacturing technique that embeds the technology used in an edge-to-edge touchscreen, eliminating the need for a separate layer.(...)

| Ping to go offline for good on September 30th Posted: 12 Sep 2012 05:54 PM PDT
Alongside a slew of other announcements, Apple has posted an official kill-date for its Ping social network. It appears that the service will be going offline at the end of the month. We’ve known for a while now that Apple’s iTunes-based social network was on the way out. After a quiet release in late 2010, the service has failed to gain much traction with users…(...)

| Apple invites devs to update their apps for iOS 6 Posted: 12 Sep 2012 05:42 PM PDT
Following up on a series of product introductions from this morning, Apple is now emailing its registered developers to download the GM seed of the Xcode 4.5 developer tools and test their warez against the final iOS 6 code, which have both been released as part of today’s announcement bonanza. The company is putting emphasis on its own mapping solution and is asking programmers to enhance their iOS apps with the new vector based engine in MapKit. Other areas of interest to developers: new camera APIs, tickets, loyalty cards, and other passes with Passbook, integrated Facebook sharing capabilities and more…(...)

The iPhone 5 is made with a level of precision you’d expect from a finely crafted watch, not a smartphone, says Apple’s marketing collateral. It ain’t just marketing talk. From these gorgeous shots to hands-on reports, everyone seems to agree that Apple has outdone itself with this year’s iPhone in terms of shininess and smoothness. In order to avoid being leapfrogged by competition (the Galaxy S III feels pretty solid in one’s hand, doesn’t it?), Apple really upped the ante on build quality, traditionally its area of expertise. The manufacturing precision and craftsmanship that go into mass-producing these new iPhones is enough to give any gadget maker a pause. From the handset’s lightly textured back to its highly polished chamfered edge with a nice sheen to it, Apple felt so confident in its manufacturing prowess that the company saw fit to brag about the unique production techniques it developed itself in order to build this phone…(...)

| Watch the iPhone 5 keynote video Posted: 12 Sep 2012 04:20 PM PDT

| Phil Schiller explains why the iPhone 5 doesn’t have NFC Posted: 12 Sep 2012 04:18 PM PDT
This year, similar to years past, a lot of folks expected to see Apple add NFC to its new smartphone. And even after previous reports all but ruled out the tech, a last minute scoop made it a possibility again. Alas, the iPhone 5 event came and went, with no mention of Near Field Communications. And the company has since confirmed that the handset does not contain the wireless payment tech. Here’s why…(...)

| LTE tech forced Apple to produce three versions of the iPhone 5 Posted: 12 Sep 2012 03:16 PM PDT
Apple may have only announced two versions of the new iPhone 5, CDMA and GSM, but some sharp folks have pointed out that there are actually three different versions of the handset. As it turns out, fragmented LTE technology has forced the company to manufacture not one, but two different versions of the GSM iPhone, in addition to the CDMA one. Here’s why…(...)

We’ve covered the iPhone 5 in great length today and we tried to share as many pictures of Apple’s new smartphone with you as possible. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then you’ll agree that a video is worth even more. While we haven’t been able to get our hands on the iPhone 5 quite yet, the fine folks over at Engadget and The Verge have already released a couple videos where they go hands on with the iPhone 5. Check it out…(...) "iPhone 5 hands on videos" is an article by iDownloadBlog.com.
