  • Apple Reportedly Reaches Agreement With American Express for iPhone Payments System

    Apple has reached an agreement with American Express for its iPhone payments system, according to Re/code.

    Apple has reached an agreement with American Express to work together on its new iPhone payments system, according to sources familiar with the talks. American Express is one of several partners Apple will need to sign up before it can launch its new payments plan, which sources say it plans to announce at its September 9 product event.

    The payment system will reportedly allow iPhone 6 owners to present their phone instead of a credit card or cash to pay for goods. Numerous reports have indicated that the iPhone 6 will finally support NFC and have a secure enclave for storing credit card information, making the payment system possible.

  • Apple Campus 2 Construction Filmed With GoPro Drone [Video]

    Check out this video from jmcminn that takes a closer look at Apple’s new campus construction via a GoPro drone. The footage was shot using a DJI Phantom 2 and a GoPro Hero 3+ Black edition.

    The project has made significant progress since the last photo posted earlier this month.

    Rick Kitson, a spokesman for the City of Cupertino, says Apple is exceeding any local or state standard with this recycling efforts — reusing HP recyclables such as concrete, trees and more. Apple has even setup its own onsite concrete crushing system.

  • Video Shows How Easy it is to Steal ATM Pin Codes with an iPhone [Watch]

    Stealing ATM Pins and passcode could get easier for thieves, thanks to infrared technology. As Mark Rober points out in his video below, thieves can simply purchase a thermal imaging (infrared) attachment and with their iPhone, steal any code input from a keypad which was previously used for entry.

    The infrared camera shows a thermal signature left by your fingers when you type codes at ATM keypads, door entries and more. All a thief has to do is scan their camera right after you enter the code to see which keys have recently been used. Since the heat signature fades with time, you can even see the order which the keys were pressed. The ‘hotter’ keys were likely pressed last while the ‘dimmer’ keys were likely pressed first.

    A study at UC San Diego shows that it is possible to guess the correct code 80% of the time if the image was taken immediately after. If the image was taken 1 minute later, there still was a 50/50 change of guessing the correct code.

  • Apple is Reportedly Considering a Price of $400 for the iWatch

    According to a new report form Recode, Apple has considered pricing the iWatch at $400, with cheaper models planned.

    Apple executives have discussed charging around $400 for the company’s new wearable device. Pricing has yet to be finalized for the forthcoming product, which is expected to begin shipping next year. Sources say consumers should expect a range of prices for different models including lower priced versions.

    The report does note that it is still unclear whether or not Apple will announce a price for the product on September 9. Recent reports indicated that the watch would not ship until 2015. Just like the original iPhone, the product may not ship until months later in an effort to keep the device a secret before its reveal.

  • More Evidence Points Towards 4.7-inch iPhone 6 with 1334 x 750 Resolution Display

    Yesterday, a video of an alleged 4.7-inch iPhone 6 that booted up and was assembled from leaked parts surfaced. The video showed the alleged iPhone 6 booting up to the Connect to iTunes recovery display screen as well as iTunes recognizing the device. After further examination of the display, developer Steven Troughton-Smith notes that 4.7-inch iPhone 6 shown in the video is most likely equipped with a 1334 x 750 display.

    A 1334 x 750 display on the 4.7-inch iPhone 6 would results in 326 PPI (pixels per inch) — the same amount as current iPhones with retina displays. This finding corroborates Daring Fireball’s John Gruber assessment that the 4.7-inch model would pack a 1334?×?750 display while the 5.5-inch model would feature a 2208?×?1242 resolution display with 461 PPI.

    MacRumors did an analysis of the the Connect to iTunes screen and found that a 1334 x 750 resolution display was likely.

  • Alleged iPhone 6 Logic Board Reveals New Category 4 LTE Modem [Photo]

    An iPhone 6 logic board complete with chips was leaked today and one by one the components are being identified. Despite some of the text being blurred, MacRumors has identified the modem which will likely be used for the 4.7-inch iPhone 6.

    While photos posted to reveal the existence of an NFC chip from NXP has seen identifying marks on many of the other components blurred, a portion of the text printed on the LTE modem is visible, confirming the board does indeed contain Qualcomm’s MDM9625M as had been previously rumored.

    The Qualcomm MDM9625M modem is a Category 4 LTE modem which means that it will support speeds of up to 150 Mbps. The modem in the iPhone 5s is a Category 3 modem which only supports speeds of up to 100 Mbps.

  • 16GB of Flash Storage Spotted on Alleged iPhone 6 Logic Board

    A 16GB flash storage module has been spotted on the recently leaked logic board for the iPhone 6, reports MacRumors.

    A new set of photos from Feld & Volk and Sonny Dickson today that revealed the NFC chip present on the logic board of the 4.7-inch iPhone 6 also offers a good look at the flash storage module on this board. Based on the Toshiba part number, as seen on similar modules, the “7” indicates that this is a 16 GB module, suggesting the low-end iPhone 6 will continue to offer that amount of storage.

    The discovery is in line with a previously leaked schematic and table that showed part numbers for the phone’s various memory options. Notably, only 16GB, 64GB, and 128GB sizes are were the list, the 32GB variant is strangely is missing.

  • Purported A8 Chip Reveals iPhone 6 Will Have 1GB of RAM

    Today photos of the iPhone 6 logic board featuring an A8 processor surfaced online. Looking closer at the chip it can be determined that Apple’s next generation smartphone will likely have 1GB of RAM.

    MacRumors forum member commander.data spotted a part number on the A8 revealsing that the package-on-package contains Hynix RAM.

    Based on Hynix’s part number format, the character in the eighth position reveals the amount of RAM in the package, with an “8” denoting 8 Gb (1 GB) and a “B” denoting 16 Gb (2 GB). While it is a bit difficult to read the part number clearly given the distance and angle in the photo, our staff and several posters in our forum agree that the character very much appears to be an “8”, indicating 1 GB of RAM.
