Apple Needs a New Naming Convention for Their Products

The best choice would be iPhone, iPhone Pro, iPhone Plus, and apply that to iPad and Macs for the current lineup

A few years ago, it was easy: you could have gotten the new iPhone, iPad or MacBook Pro and run with it. It was the best, the most current, with the latest iOS or OS X and all the bells and whistles.

Fast forward to 2016 and you have five different models of iPhone in two or four different colors, with two or three different capacities, and running on two chips.

The newest iPhone (iPhone SE) is not the best out there, it doesn't have the best screen, the best camera or the highest battery. It doesn't even support 3D Touch and lacks a sensor and some other internals.

Samsung and LG Do Not Compete, It’s South Korea vs. the Rest of the World

Now that Sony is out of the way, Chinese handset makers are the main competitors for these two giants

The smartphone business is an ever-changing industry that recorded some of the biggest fails (Nokia, BlackBerry), but also some of the most impressive rises for companies that not many had heard before (Xiaomi, Meizu).

Since Nokia’s dominance in the mobile phone market crumbled to dust, many companies have tried to take its position as number one, world’s largest mobile phone vendor.

After a fierce struggle with Apple and other major handset makers, that position has been taken away by Samsung, as the South Korean company has shipped the highest amount of mobile phones in the last couple...

CVE System Sees Huge Backlog, Researchers Propose Alternative

Conspiracy theories arise as MITRE's CVE system fails to assign CVE identifiers for all reported security bugs

The MITRE Corporation, a non-profit US organization that manages the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) database is seeing "an unprecedented demand for vulnerability IDs," and is looking into solutions for speeding up the CVE number assignment process.

The CVE system is the central point around which most of the information security community is revolving around. Whenever a security researcher finds a security vulnerability, he sends MITRE a request for a CVE identifier.

This CVE ID is more than just a number added to a database. In the infosec world, it's also a sign that the ...

FBiOS Between Marketing Strategies and Standing Tall

How will mass shooting change the way our technology works?

Apple is giving anyone a lesson in being true to your mission. It's been almost a month since the Cupertino team has resisted the FBI request to create a new, flawed iOS in order for the Government agents to break into an iPhone that may or may not contain information good for an important case.

If you are a close Apple follower, you may already know what this is about. Three months ago there was a mass shooting event in San Bernardino, California. 14 people were gunned down and 22 others were injured. The gunmen were found and killed by the police. Now this may be seen as a tragic but comm...

What If the San Bernardino Shooter Had Used an Android Instead?

Google's latest Android encryption and security features are as tough as Apple's, would be in the same predicament

As it stands today, the San Bernardino shooter's iPhone is about to become one of the most infamous devices in the history of tech, and certainly the most controversial.

By today, almost all of you are familiar with the fact that Apple has decided to fight a US court order that demanded that it help authorities decrypt the shooter's iPhone.

The court order was issued after authorities screwed up and reset the shooter's Apple ID account password, which would have allowed them to retrieve the phone's password without Apple's help, by extracting it from an iCloud backup.

Why You Can’t Use Windows 10 Mobile on Your Main Phone Just Yet

Windows 10 Mobile doesn’t seem to be ready for prime time

Windows 10 Mobile is very close to getting the go-ahead and hit the market as an upgrade version for Windows Phone devices, after staying in preview form for approximately one year and debuting in stable form (more or less) on the Lumia 950 and 950 XL.

But undoubtedly, many Windows Phone fans are already using Windows 10 Mobile on their devices as their everyday driver, despite the fact that Microsoft has clearly mentioned that, since it’s just a preview and bugs are very likely, the OS should only be installed on backup phones.

Windows Phone users, however, have always been part of a very tec...

Canonical Is Blurring the Line Between PCs and Mobile Devices with Ubuntu Tablet

We should find a new name for these devices

Canonical announced yesterday the first tablet that runs Ubuntu, which also happens to be a convergence device. The company is now starting to blur the lines between PCs and mobile devices, and Ubuntu is a key part of this process.

We are used to thinking about PCs and mobile devices as separate entities. Sure, they can talk to each other, but they are used for separate things. The tablets fall somewhere in the middle. They have bigger screens, but the same basic functionality of the mobile devices is retained. Tablets are an interesting concept for which we still try to find a place in our lives.
