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.

What Is KaiOS? The Android Competitor You've Never Heard Of

When you think of the smartphone OS wars, we have two warring factions, Android and iOS. For about 5 years this was the way it's been. But in the distant past there were three smartphone Operating Systems. Android, iOS and Windows. The three way battle for OS supremacy raged on and before long the triopoly became a duopoly. With Windows phone being more or less dead the two major Operating systems only had each other to worry about for the longest time. Now the incumbents have a new kid on the block to worry about , KaiOS. But wait if KaiOS is so great how come no ones ever heard of it before? But First Some Background KaiOS is built on the ashes of the Firefox OS , For phones that aren't necessarily smart. You remember those old phones that you used to rock back in 2009? Yeah phones like those. The aim of KaiOS is to bring down the features of a smartphone down to a feature phone. So for that very same reason KaiOS is a fully functional modern OS with options for WiFi

iPhone XR: The Display Is Fine!

Its September and like every year like clockwork Apple has come out with new iPhones and would it be an iPhone launch without some controversy. The iPhone X had the notch and the iPhone 7 didn't have a headphone jack . In true Apple fashion this year's iPhones have stirred up controversy, Well one of them. Apple released the iPhone XS , the XS Max and the iPhone XR. With the two S models being the premium pricey phones that we've come to expect. The real wild card was the iPhone XR but in my personal opinion it is the best possible phone that we could have expected. Why I'm Okay With The Display Most in the tech industry upon knowing about the pixel density of the iPhone XR instantly compared it to the iPhone 4 from 2010. Yes on paper they both have the exact same specs. But paper rarely tells the whole story. While the pixels per inch have stayed the same the underlying technology behind the displays themselves have changed a lot. Starting with the backlights th

The Huawei Ban Is Justified (Hear Me Out)

So a few a year or so ago I talked about the consequences of using a Huawei phone here  and more than a year later things aren't all that different. Recently Huawei was accused of being a security threat by the United States and has asked all American companies to not do business with Huawei. So that means that Huawei is now cut off from Intel, Qualcomm and most importantly Android. Now this might seem harsh at first glance. The US is unfairly targeting a law abiding company just for the fact that it is Chinese. But a closer look reveals much more.  How China Does Business Unlike in the west and much of the world. China does not have a protections for intellectual property. That means that no ones protecting your idea from being ripped off by someone else and then being brought to market. In most of the world if someone violates a patent you can sue them. Case and point look at pressy a small Kickstarter that makes a small button that plugs into your phones headphone jack (
