We’re pretty big fans of the iPhone 4S as the revamped innards, boosted camera and Siri make it a worthy upgrade over last year’s model. But some of the IntoMobile team has been having some issues with the battery life and we wanted to know if you’re experiencing the same thing. Yesterday, I pulled the…
Hola. Ciao. Hallo. Hej. Dobrý den. If you understand any of that, chances are you are just fluent in a lot of languages, or in a country where the iPhone 4S is now sold. Apple’s iconic new smartphone is now available in Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Mexico, Netherlands, Norway,…
A report last week predicted that Samsung shipped more smartphones than Apple in Q3, but now it’s confirmed. Samsung is now the number one smartphone vendor in the world when measured by global shipments, which is a title effectively stolen from Apple. During Q3 2011, Samsung shipped approximately 27.8 million smartphones, while Apple was in…
I know many T-Mobile users have been expecting to see the iPhone 4S singing along T-Mobile’s network.

In a recent interview with Reuters, China Mobile Chairman Wang Jianzhou said its wireless network is home to more than 10 million iPhones. And while that’s insignificant figure compared to the carrier’s 600 million+ subscribers, it’s surprisingly high considering China Mobile doesn’t offer the iPhone. In that sense, it is believed that all those users…
In an interview with Forbes, Sprint CEO Dan Hesse managed to slide in a compliment for the iPhone, now that he actually likes it. Don’t be fooled by its seemingly kind nature. This is a double-whammy compliment, because while it may praise Apple, it secretly slams AT&T and Verizon in a brilliant way. Hesse claims…
The first iPad was announced in January 2010 and then started shipping 5 months later in April. The second iPad was announced in March 2011 and shipped the very same month. Assuming Apple follows this 1 year cadence, we’re likely to see the third iPad be announced during Q2 of 2012. We’re expecting it to…
