Rim Responds To Apple S Antenna Press Conference

Full Statement: “Apple’s attempt to draw RIM into Apple’s self-made debacle is unacceptable. Apple’s claims about RIM products appear to be deliberate attempts to distort the public’s understanding of an antenna design issue and to deflect attention from Apple’s difficult situation. RIM is a global leader in antenna design and has been successfully designing industry-leading wireless data products with efficient and effective radio performance for over 20 years. During that time, RIM has avoided designs like the one Apple used in the iPhone 4 and instead has used innovative designs which reduce the risk for dropped calls, especially in areas of lower coverage....

Rise Of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles A Weak Reboot

Rise Of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is the latest animated reboot, but sadly it might be the weakest incarnation to date. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles debuted in comic form in 1984. The characters are walking, talking turtles who live in the sewers of New York, and were trained in martial arts by an anthropomorphic rat named Splinter. The comic was created by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird, but while it originally started as a parody of gritty superhero comics like Frank Miller’s Daredevil run, it soon became a runaway success....

Rumor New Iphones May Be First To Bundle Usb C Fast Charging

iPhone 8 and iPhone X support fast charging via a Lightning to USB-C cable, but Apple opted not to ship fast charging accessories in the box. Instead, iPhone customers have to fork over nearly $80 for a charging cable and brick that offers fast charging. That may change with the next flagship iPhones… An unconfirmed source on Weibo (via MacRumors) claims Apple will be shipping new power bricks and Lightning cables with USB-C to support faster charging right out of the box....

Review Blue Microphones Spark Digital May Be The Best Usb Lightning Mic For The Money Video

When you think of a USB microphone, what’s the first thing that comes to mind? For myself, I tend to picture a subpar microphone that would normally be used for Skype calls or other basic tasks. Of course, these microphones have come a long way in recent years, but nothing makes this more evident than Blue Microphones’ Spark Digital condenser microphone. Not only is this a USB for Mac/PC, but it’s also built to work with iOS devices....

Review Could The Syllable D900S Be Your First Affordable Truly Wireless Earbuds

As time has gone on and increased reports of Apple’s next iPhone lacking a headphone jack have persisted, I’ve begun to delve deeper into the future of what consumer audio playback on iOS could be. Though headphones have found their way into nearly all levels of the consumer market in the past few years, I wanted to imagine what this headphone jack-less future could look like. I decided to start with the affordable, and what I would consider entry-level, Syllable D900s true wireless earbuds....

Review Ravpower Dual Port 4 Port 6 Port Usb Wall Chargers Deliver Fast Quality Power At Crazy Low Prices

USB wall chargers are commodities, churned out by anonymous factories and sold for low prices everywhere around the world. But chargers that are both safe and fast enough to use with Apple’s products are less common, particularly when they are capable of charging more than one device at a time. RAVPower’s Dual 2.4A USB Wall Charger ($50, currently $13), Bolt 4-Port Desktop USB Charger ($70, currently $17), and Bolt 6-Port Desktop USB Charger ($70, currently $27) have such low street prices that they seem too good to be true....

Rise Of Skywalker Dominic Monaghan S Beaumont Kin Star Wars Backstory Explained

Dominic Monaghan (briefly) plays Beaumont Kin in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, but what happened to the character before he became a walking source of exposition? Beaumont Kin is one of several new faces introduced in the Star Wars sequel trilogy’s final episode, alongside Zorii Bliss, Babu Frick, Admiral Pryde and D-0. Unfortunately for fans of Lost and Lord of the Rings, Monghan’s character doesn’t have a a significant role in The Rise of Skywalker; instead, he props up the Resistance base on Ajan Kloss and provides the audience with snippets of information about the state of play in the fight against the First Order....

Review Logitech K811 Bluetooth Easy Switch Keyboard A Month Later It Replaces Three Apple Keyboards

The lighter, rechargeable, backlit Logitech Bluetooth Easy-Switch Keyboard K811 switches between three hosts seamlessly and also makes a great Apple TV controller. Here’s why: The Logitech Bluetooth Easy-Switch Keyboard K811 is about the size of Apple’s Wireless Keyboard with a shallower angle – something similar to what you are used to if you use a MacBook. In fact the similarities don’t stop there. Instead of adopting Apple’s desktop keyboards’ white, non-backlit keys, Logitech’s Easy-Switch keyboards look a lot like Apple’s MacBook Keyboards with backlit black keys on a brushed aluminum....

Rian Johnson Confirms Star Wars Movie Trilogy Talks Are Ongoing

Rian Johnson reveals that he is still in talks to make a Star Wars trilogy for Disney. Johnson was the director of the second film in the Star Wars sequel trilogy: Star Wars: The Last Jedi. While the film certainly made Disney a ton of money at the box office, the film turned out to be one of the most divisive films in Star Wars history. While the Skywalker saga will be brought to a close this December when Disney releases Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, the franchise is far from over....

Rita Repulsa S Alternate Design Revealed

Concept art from the Power Rangers movie reboot reveals some early designs for the film’s villain, Rita Repulsa. Power Rangers has received a fair amount of acclaim for its fun, campy tone and approach to the original franchise, which neither dumbed it down nor tried to make it grittier or darker than was necessary. In fact, many Power Rangers fans seemed to walk away from the film happy with the changes the studio and filmmakers had made, with only a few minor criticisms here and there (most of which revolved around the movie’s surprising lack of martial arts or hand-to-hand combat)....

Riverdale How The Season 2 Renewal Could Impact The Murder Mystery

Riverdale has fast become one of The CW’s most streamed shows, so its renewal for a second season hasn’t exactly come as a surprise. The angst-ridden teen drama, with more than a touch of Twin Peaks, is based upon the characters from Archie Comics and has proven to be darkly funny, emotional, and insightful. Riverdale has quickly built a large and very vocal online fandom, with fans speculating on various ‘ships’ as well as wondering who carried out the murder that is essentially underpinning all of season 1....

Apple Watch has been out for over three weeks and I’ve been using mine now for most of that time, from the moment I wake up to just before bed each night. While my colleague Ben Lovejoy previously journaled his experience in his excellent “A skeptic’s Apple Watch diary” series, I’ve been sold on the appeal of Apple Watch since the first day I paired a Pebble smartwatch with my iPhone and discovered its potential…and potential pitfalls....

Review Ohai For Iphone Helps You Keep Track Of Where You Ve Been

When it comes to location check-ins, there are a lot of different apps that are designed to tell everyone where you are and what you’re doing. With apps like Foursquare dominating the check-in space, it’s hard to imagine a different way of doing things. Ohai is an app that does exactly that: it introduces a new way of handling location check-ins. Whereas Foursquare makes checking in at different locations something of a game, complete with a scoring system and leaderboard, Ohai focuses more on saving memories and less on visiting the most places of all your friends....
