Evolution of the iPhone to the Apple iPhone 6s Release

the original Apple iPhone

With the release of the Apple iPhone 6s coming up tomorrow (September 9, 2015), it’s interesting to see the changes in the iPhone over the past years. When Steve Jobs first announced the original release of the iPhone in 2007, it’s doubtful even he realized how popular it would become nor how it would evolve and change over the years. It really defined what a smart phone was and of course other companies hurried to release their own versions.

So what has changed? Certainly the speed of operation from one screen to the next and download time. There have been added features. Was the original iPhone without GPS or was the capacity just greatly improved? The camera and video functions are known to be amazingly good now – almost high definition quality – quite amazing for a point and shoot camera. Perhaps the most significant change has been the increased data capacity in all devices including laptops and desktops. Lastly, the screen size has increased and with it a more responsive touch screen.

Here is the predictions from Cellular Outfitter regarding the soon to be released iPhone 6S and the iPhone 6S Plus.

So, what is Apple going to announce on September 9? Rumor has it that successors to the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus

New iPhone 6S Plus

are to be announced. These might be called the 6s and the 6s Plus, should Apple choose to stick with its current naming scheme. The two phones are highly likely to retain the size, looks, and design of their respective predecessors, but on the inside, the hardware is expected to be given a serious boost. The camera of choice, for example, is rumored to be a 12MP unit with 4K video support. The new SoC will probably be accompanied by 2GB of RAM instead of just one gig. The housing of the handsets is said to be made of 7000-series aluminum, which is tougher. And the display could be given Force Touch abilities, the kind of which we first saw on the Apple Watch. The two phones' commercial release is extremely likely to coincide with the rollout of iOS 9.

The Apple staff has become masters at marketing these phones. By using the tactic of scarcity during their launches, thousands (even millions) flock to their stores to get the first limited editions of new releases. There are long lines before stores open as if there won’t be more phones for sale later. The release of the Apple iPhone 6s release should be no different. Is it clever marketing or are these phones really superior to the competition? I leave that question for you to answer.

The Asus Padfone - Beneficial Cell Phone or Not?

Here is a very amusing video that I assure you will love watching to see how the company Asus has combined a cell phone (well, actually a large Android smartphone) with a laptop and calls it a Padfone. Thanks to the Wall Street Journal, producer, Drew Evans and journalist and actress supreme, Joanna Stern for this addition to our understanding of the confusing array of mobile devices available today.

Are you even more confused today? Best just go down to your local electronic shop and try them all out. You can rest assured the sales team will be up on the latest devices and try to sell you several. Here's some questions you will want to ask. I personally like taking in a list of questions because the usual sales person will so overload you with information that you won't be able to remember these important points. Nor will the literature they give you necessarily include it.
1. What is the GB capacity or the phone (something like the memory)?
2. What is the mega pixel capacity of the camera? (better yet, get the sales to take a picture and show it to you).
3. What is the initial price and the length of the contract?
4. What software is included and what necessary software or apps must be added or downloaded?
5. Are there any attachments that are included in the cost (such as cell phone holders, covers, ear phones, etc.
6. What is the warranty period and what customer service is included?
7. Where is the phone manufactured or serviced?
