As the Pebble showed us, consumers are very interested in iPhone-connected smartwatches. The KickStarter project smashed all previous funding records, garnering over $10 million in pledges.
As you might have guessed, the success has drawn others into the smartwatch space. And today, we're going to take a look at the latest entry, the Strata...
If you've used Siri in the past, you know how reliable, or how unreliable it can be. For someone like me who speaks with a strong French accent, Siri gets it wrong more often than not, which led me to use Siri for very basic tasks instead of trying to push her limits.
If there is one time where Siri should be right on spot though, it's during commercials or ads. But there again, it seems like Siri, or rather Apple marketing department, isn't on top of its game.
In a recent ad placed on the back cover of the Economist, Siri was asked "what does poison oak look like" and she managed to return the wrong results...
Apparently the handful of class-action lawsuits haven't shaken Apple's marketing team. The company has just released a new television ad starring its often-criticized digital assistant.
The fourth in a string of celebrity spots, famed film director Martin Scorsese co-stars with Siri in this new iPhone 4S commercial set in what looks to be a New York City taxi cab...
A month ago Samsung publicly set a target for Galaxy S III shipments at ten million units by the end of July. Today, the company announced it hit that milestone. A successor to the Galaxy S II, by and large the most popular Android handset, the Galaxy S III was unveiled at a London event on May 29, 55 days ago. A month later it arrived at U.S. shores.
In the two weeks following the London unveiling, the S III received more than nine million pre-orders from a hundred carriers, making it the fastest-selling gadget in history.
For comparison, the iPhone 4S sold four million units during its launch weekend (including pre-orders) and the Galaxy S II took five months to hit ten million shipments...
Ever since Samsung unveiled its new Galaxy S III earlier this year, we've seen the handset compared to the iPhone 4S in a number of different ways, including specs, voice control features, and even durability.
But up until now, we've yet to see a comparison like this. A new report is out this week claiming that Apple's latest smartphone has been found to emit 3 times more radiation than Samsung's S III handset...

Twelve South's BookBook for the iPhone is arguably one of the most popular cases on the market today. Not only does it hold the handset, but it has a built-in wallet.
Jeff reviewed the original BookBook case for us last fall, calling it one of his favorite iPhone accessories. But up until now, the cover has only been available in brown...
When Apple unveiled Siri last fall, the tech world seemed genuinely excited. Sure, other platforms like Android and Windows Phone already had voice control, but Apple's assistant seemed to be on another level.
Over the next few months, however, that excitement slowly began to wear off. Siri's beta roots started showing with service outages, and a noticeable drop in accuracy. And then the lawsuits started to appear...
Between its 8MP sensor and internet connectivity, the iPhone 4S is one of the best point-and-shoot cameras around. It can download thousands of photo-editing apps and upload images to a number of services.
But the lack of interchangeable lenses, a weak flash, and other missing features means that the iPhone won't be replacing your DSLR anytime soon. Unless, of course, you had something like the 3RDi camera kit...
Between its ability to capture 1080p video, and its seemingly-endless supply of third-party editing apps, the iPhone 4S has become a great tool for budding film-makers.
And when software and megapixel count won't get you the shot you want, there's also a large selection of iPhone accessories up to the task. Enter the Picosteady...
Back in May of this year, we told you about FreedomPop. The up-and-coming wireless broadband provider plans to disrupt the traditional carrier model with a combination of free 4G service, and iPhone products.
The idea sounded great on paper: offer iPhone users free service in exchange for buying these $99 cases with built-in FreedomPop modems. But sadly, the company seemed intent on using WiMAX technology...
