Every year, talk show host Jimmy Kimmel sends a crew down to Hollywood Boulevard to get people’s reactions to a new iPhone. The crew pranks people by presenting them with an old iPhone and telling them that it’s the one that was just announced. Some people fall for the prank and sing praises of a device that has been out for quite some time. You’d think they’d be able to […]
We all know that sinking feeling when you drop your phone onto the pavement, or worse, dropping it into water especially since most of the time it is more or less a guaranteed death sentence. However it seems by some stroke of luck, an iPhone 4 dropped into a freezing lake managed to survive for 18 months and could still power on.

So earlier today Apple announced iOS 8. Was it the iOS update that iOS users have been waiting for? Perhaps. Apple introduced a host of changes and new features that didn’t feel groundbreaking, but at the same time afforded users a lot of conveniences. Perhaps that might be more important for some users than having to have new and epic features everytime, right?That being said, if you were hoping to […]
The iPhone 4 is four years old and Apple probably won’t be able to sell many units if it started offering it again in the U.S. Though a few months back it was reported that the company had started producing iPhone 4 units once again primarily to compete against mid-range smartphones in emerging markets. Thus the smartphone was relaunched in India and other markets, where it sold for $300 off contract […]
The iPhone 4 was released back in 2010, which means that the handset is about four years old now. While the phone does support iOS 7, it’s probably in the best interest of iPhone 4 users to install the update simply because the phone is having a really hard time handling the software, or at least that’s what the reports claim.In fact The New York Times claims that this is […]
This is something quite unusual, Apple normally does not resume production of a product that has been discontinued. The iPhone 4 was quite popular when it came out, but since then it has been succeeded by four different models, and even if some might not consider it to be an outdated product, its safe to say that it has lost its appeal to its younger brethren. A report claims that […]
I don’t know about you, but the last time I checked our calendar, the year was shown off as 2014. Yes sir, we are now well into 2014, and the iPhone 5s alongside a “budget” iPhone known as the iPhone 5c were released in 2013 – which was last year. The whole reason why I am so particular in pointing out the timeline is, something strange is happening in India. […]
The iPhone 4 was released back in 2010 and despite it being overtaken by devices like the iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPhone 5c, and iPhone 5s, the handset could be looking to make a comeback in India in the form of an 8GB model. According to a report from The Economic Times, they claim that Apple is expected to begin sales of an 8GB iPhone 4 in the near future […]
We’ve seen an iPhone 5 case that has a Lightning cable attached to its back, which would allow you to charge your iPhone 5 nearly anywhere there’s a power outlet, so long as you have your adapter with you. You don’t see many iPhone cases that come with a built-in charger, which is exactly what makes the Prong PocketPlug so unique as it combines an iPhone case with a charger that […]
We have been hearing horror stories out of China in which iPhone users have been reportedly electrocuted, and in one instance resulted in the death of a young woman. We have also heard about exploding iPhones and it looks like those cases might no longer be just limited to the China region. Just recently we heard about an exploding iPad charger in the UK, and now in the US a […]
The iPhone 4 is two generations old, making it pretty old as far as smartphone technology is concerned, but apparently there is still plenty of appeal left to the device, possibly aided by its lower price tag. This is according to a new sales report from Kantar Worldpanel ComTech who reports that during the period of May to June 2013, Apple enjoyed a surge of sales which was largely thanks […]
Big companies such as Apple often have big legal problems, that is why they have big lawyers and legal experts on their payroll. A new class action lawsuit has been brought against Apple by a woman based in Florida called Debra Hilton, who claims that Apple continued to sell the iPhone 4 despite knowing that there was a flaw with the iPhone 4’s power button which caused it to fail […]
Back when Apple announced the iPhone 4, the handset ran into several issues, most notably the Antennagate scandal which basically caused iPhone 4 owners to experience dropped calls when holding their phone, basically blocking the reception from the antenna. In any case the issue has since come and gone, but if you remember, Apple did agree to pay out $53 million in a settlement to all iPhone 4 owners who […]
While the larger display on the iPhone 5 is a welcome change, one of the problems it has created is that there are apps out there who have yet to be updated to fit the iPhone 5’s 4” display. Apple tried to remedy this by installing black bars at the top and bottom of non-optimized apps, which on the black iPhone 5 kind of gives it the illusion that it’s […]
Yesterday we highlighted an umbrella that had a grip in its handle that allows the owner to use an umbrella and their smartphone at the same time because we thought it was both a cool and silly concept. We can imagine using the umbrella on a regular basis when using your phone and shielding yourself from rain are equally important.Today, we stumbled onto an iPhone case that should be considered a […]
