Sprint has just announced that it will be adding 4G LTE to 28 additional cities in the coming months.
Sprint launched its 4G LTE network in July 2012 and is currently available in 49 cities.
Apple is known to exert a great deal of control over carriers due to the leverage it has thanks to the popularity of the iPhone. A report from Telecoms.com adds to the many, already documented, instances of Apple calling the shots in its relationship with carriers. If your LTE/4G network doesn’t pass Apple’s tests you can’t have the iPhone 5 with LTE.
When you start shopping around for your iOS devices, you have to take a lot of things into account. But the biggest factors when making such an important purchase is to consider your use cases and what size is going to suit you best.
When I mention the size of the device, I don’t mean just the physical size of the device itself. I also mean the size of the storage within it.
As expected, Sprint, Verizon and AT&T have announced the availability of 4G LTE-capable iPad mini and the 4th generation iPad in their retail stores today.
Strangely, Apple is yet to announce when the LTE capable iPad mini and 4th generation iPad will be available in Apple retail stores and its authorized resellers.
Hot on the heels of disassembling the iPad mini, iFixit has also disassembled the 4th generation iPad, which also went on sale in 34 countries earlier today.
The 4th generation iPad looks exactly like the iPad 3 (new iPad), but it comes with a number of improvements such as Apple’s new faster A6X chip, FaceTime HD camera, expanded LTE support and Apple’s new Lightning connector.
As rumored, Apple released a tweaked version of the third generation iPad at its media event in San Jose, California. Contrary to expectations though, Apple chose to term this the fourth generation iPad, rather than calling it an incremental upgrade
The 4th gen iPad comes with an all new A6X chip, a lightning connector, an improved FaceTime camera, and expanded 4G LTE support.
Apple is widely speculated to release a tweaked version of iPad 3 alongside the smaller and cheaper iPad at the media event on Tuesday.
BGR has posted photos, which it claims are of the tweaked iPad’s display assembly.
Ever since Apple launched the iPad in 2010, there have been rumors that Apple will launch a smaller and cheaper version of their tablet.
The “we’ve got a little more to show you” tag line on the invite for the October 23 media event seems to strongly indicate that Apple will finally launch the smaller iPad to take on cheaper Android-based tablets like Google Nexus 7 and Amazon Kindle Fire.
Here’s what we expect based on the rumors and speculations we’ve heard so far.
Apple’s new iPad finally went on sale in China today.
However, uncharacteristically it has been greeted with short lines and no chaos thanks to the pre-sale reservation system.
After coming under scrutiny over 4G branding of the new iPad in several countries, Apple has finally dropped the 4G branding on its website.
Apple is now calling the ‘Wi-Fi + 4G’ iPad model as ‘Wi-Fi + Cellular’.
