California Streaming – Apple Event – 14 September 2021
Apple have announced their annual autumnal event this year on 14th September. We’re hoping for the announcement of the new iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max. Rumoured to have similar styling as the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max respectively, what we’re always interested in here are the camera modules and specs. Again, rumours abound of larger lenses and ProRes video support. A larger battery too, always a good idea, as well as potentially an A15 chip and a USB-C connection as opposed to Lightning. Perhaps we will also see a ninth generation iPad as well as an iPad mini 6 and also there’s always Apple…

Mobile Photograph – Leaks appear on Samsung S10 specs
With three and four rear cameras already featuring on high-end smartphones it’s perhaps not out of the question that rumoured Samsung Galaxy S10 will feature three cameras. At least that’s the verdict according to the twitter user, Evan Blass, a well-known and, more to the point, usually well-informed individual with the handle @evleaks. Few preliminary Galaxy S10 details: – "Punch hole" style selfie cam cutout (sounds like Infinity-O display).– Ultrasonic, in-display FPS– Three rear cameras (standard/wide/tele)– One UI over Android Pie — Ev (@evleaks) November 13, 2018 Blass is also tipping what he calls a “Punch hole – style sefie cam” relating it to the Infinity O display screen showcased…

Random Access Memory (RAM) capacity, which is essentially memory, not to be confused with storage space, is also larger on the iPhone X, it weighs in with 3GB in total, that’s more than the iPhone 8 but is equivalent to the iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone 7 Plus.

VSCO Closes New York Office
The New York office of VSCO was opened last year to much fanfare, sadly for the company they have now had to close it and the staff have lost their jobs. According to the report in Techcrunch, some New York staff were offered opportunties to relocate to offices in Denver or Oakland locations. VSCO redesigned their mobile applications last summer but the mobile photography community did not receive these updates favourably and their App Store ratings sunk. A further update was released in November last year, addressing some of the user complaints but perhaps that was not enough to save their New York office. We will keep you informed of…

The Ten Greatest Rumours About Tomorrow’s Apple Event
Mashable have trawled the internet and brought together a collection of the ten greatest rumours expected to come from the Apple Event tomorrow. The main rumours centre around the launch of two new iPads, the iPad 5 and iPad Mini 2.

I also adore my iPad but if it would run faster I’d love it even more and if Apple put the super fast iPhone 5S A7 chip into the newer model, that would be perfect, we’ll see… Improved camera? Oh yes, always!…
