The LCD iPhone X Will Be The Most Popular 2018 iPhone

Image result for iphone XFinally the iPhone X hype has died down and we're already hyped about the next iPhone release. We're just two months into the year and we've already got rumours about the 2018 iPhones.

Ming-Chi-Kuos Got Us Covered

Trusted leaker Ming Chi Kuo recently let out a report stating that Apple might release 3 new iPhones in 2018 and at first glance this may seem a little confusing when you look at it in context of the rumored feature set.

Yeah that line up definitely raises a few questions. Would Apple really backtrack to an LCD panel after all that talk about how an OLED finally rose to the standards of the iPhone? To that I say yes, yes they would. 

Most People Dont Want To Spend A $1000 On A Phone

Despite the amazing sales of the iPhone X which actually grew rather than contracted as per most reports. Most people still don't want to shell out a $1000 as shown by the strong iPhone 8/+ sales. So it would be a good idea to reduce the asking price of Apples new flagship.But the iPhone X is one costly cookie to produce. With its OLED panel itself costing upwards of $110. Thats almost one tenth of the cost of the entire product for just the display. So if you wanted a cheaper iPhone X the display is one area that you could compromise on to signiicantly lower the cost of the device.But would such a device sell? We've seen that everyone loves the design and a lot more people would have upgraded to the iPhone X if it weren't for its price tag. As per the rumours so far you're getting the complete iPhone X experience with the rumoured LCD version Face ID and everything. So I do Believe that the device would sell well.

LCD Vs OLED

We've all been hearing about how amazing OLED is over LCD, about how OLED has deeper blacks and how contrast is much better on the OLED panel.But after having used the iPhone 7 and 8 for a while I've personally not had any issues with the LCD panel on either. They both look gorgeous, as they should. Sure you can see the differences when you put them side by side and even then it's not that obvious. So I don't think that having LCD on a 2018 iPhone would be that much of a deal-breaker. Apple has been pushing the limits of LCD technology and it really does show in their LCD panels. So you're really getting a really good deal on the LCD iPhone X and if it means a lower price of even $700 or $800 people will be willing to upgrade for the new design and Face ID.

So Which Is The Best Browser For Your Mac?

With all the chrome bashing that's been going on of late, It got me wondering and a bit jealous cause I was missing out on the aforementioned Chrome bashing. Does it really matter what browser you use? I mean they all fundamentally do the same thing, It turns all the ones and zeros of the internet into things that you can actually read on your screen. But as is turns out a whole lot of things have to happen for your favourite website to be displayed to you, In the shady back alleys of code that our browsers run on, It turns out that each browser does things a little bit differently. So what are our options? The Three main browsers that we'll be taking a look at today will be Safari, Firefox and Chrome.  Safari Safari is the browser that comes with your iPhone or iPad or your Mac as we are discussing in this case. It's a fast fluid responsive modern browser. It's my browser on choice. Safari a few things going for it. First off it's a first pa...

Why Google Is About To Pay Apple $9 Billion To Do Nothing

There's a saying as old as time itself, "Its about quality not quantity" this couldn't be more true for Apple. By no stretch of the imagination does Apple dominate the smartphone market. In fact it just got passed by Huawei as the worlds second largest phone manufacturer. With such a small market share, You'd think that Apple would be at the mercy of much larger and just as established OEMs. But as with many things in the tech world Apple enjoys an advantageous position in the market and that lets them do a few things that most if not all other OEMs can't do at scale. From making a chinless phone by bending an OLED display to making $150 dollar wireless headphones that would have most likely failed had another company made them.This vantage point given to Apple by its grip on software and hardware and it's almost cult like following has made it a force to be reckoned with.I mean they're about to sell their 2 billionth iPhone , With such a huge ...

Why I Love The iOS Files App

iOS has long been guilty of being terrible with files, You had third party file managers that promised to give you a great files experience. But most of them fell pitifully short, some did almost come close to being good but none came close to the flexibility and power that a file explorer on Android, Windows or MacOS could ever hope to give you.That all changed with the introduction of the files app on iOS 11. Why Bother With A Files App? Apple has been talking about  replacing the PC with an iPad for quite a while now and to truly replace a PC you need a few desktop features on iOS which is primarily a mobile OS. Ask anyone and they'll tell you that the ability to manipulate files is one of the most basic things that you'd expect a computer to do. After all one of the first GUI apps was a file explorer. So it makes sense to bring over the file explorer to iOS. But you just can't port finder over...
