apparently iPhones are becoming bent due to trouser pockets lmao.

Sucks about them getting broken in pockets. Doesn't look like Apple even considered that.

It gets better for Aussie Apple users too

APPLE has been forced to pull an update to its iOS8 operating system just hours after it was released following reports that it stopped some phones from being able to make phone calls and prevented the Touch ID fingerprint scanner from working. The good news for Australian Apple fans who might have jumped out of bed and quickly installed the latest update from Apple is that it’s no longer available, after the problems were quickly reported shortly after the software’s release overnight.


Apple has acted after the issue had some users complaining it turned their shiny new iPhone 6 into a shiny new iPod, in that it was an iPhone that didn’t make phone calls. For those who have got the failed operating system update, Apple has released a statement talking people through a workaround of how to cope with a iPhone that has been affected.

Luckily I wasn't one of the ones who got this update. I'm not a fan of iOS8 anyway and I'm starting to regret having and iPhone ;l

it bends

I'm awaiting them blaming their customers like they did with the signal issues where apparently people weren't holding the phone properly (they were as in what's normal and comfortable, but not what makes the phone works - but they're too stubborn to admit it).

As per usual, no testing has been done. Jobs would be rolling around in his coffin if it wasn't for the people jumping at the iPhone as if it is something special generating a huge income. It's 2014 and people still see smartphones as some sort of statement come religious following :/

theres also tests on the other major brands, surely they would check these things but no apparently not

Apps in the Play Store = 1,500,000
Apps in the App Store = 1,300,000

Incorrect, it would seem. Now, one could then argue over quality - I can't speak for that, but you are wrong regarding the number of apps.

Having said that, there are not many apps that are available in one store and not the other (that people actually use on a day-to-day basis).



Which device are you using, out of interest?

Not sure where you're getting the 1.5 figure for the play store? I can only seem to find 1.3 for it.

[scottish]

There's 1,373,455 apps on Google Play
There's 1,302,338 apps on App Store

Apologies - it was supposedly a result from September off of a Google search :L My mistake, although still more - so the point in itself is still valid.

Nope, 1.3 in both stores So they're roughly the same.

Edit: Oops, didn't see Scotts comment! You are correct, but only very slightly
