In 2007 the cell phone game was reimagined, when Apple came out with the iPhone. Smartphones became a thing, and now they’re so commonplace I don’t think of them as smartphones, they’re just phones. The cell phone industry at the time was shaken up, and within a few…
As phones and tablets start taking up more and more of our “screen-time” away from traditional desktops, the likelihood of you dropping your baby – I mean phone – increases. And that leads to screens breaking at a pretty high rate. For your phone or tablet you can…
If you know anything about Apple, you know that they are not a cheap brand. Their iPhone X is the most expensive phone out there (at least among the mass consumed phones – luxury phones don’t count) and their Macbook and iMac computers have always been among the…
The iPhone’s biggest rival is the Samsung Galaxy, and with Apple’s latest flagship phone reportedly set to cut production amid falling sales, there is an opportunity for Samsung to step into a bigger portion of the market. The Galaxy S9 and S9 Plus are releasing in mid-March, and…

We’ve written about Net Neutrality before. You probably remember when it was all over Facebook, Reddit, Snapchat… wherever you looked people were trying to get others to write to their legislators to push back against the FCC’s Net Neutrality repeal. Then in December the FCC (headed by everyone’s…
Apple is reportedly going to cut their production of iPhone X’s in half over the next quarter due to lower-than-expected demand. The initial demand for the iPhone X when it was released was too much to deliver on-time, as it is a very difficult phone to make. However,…
Apple makes some pretty great phones. I should know, I’ve actually switched to an iPhone 8 after several Androids, and I’m really happy with my phone thus far. Keep that all in mind because it’s probably going to sound like I’m really sour toward Apple. I’m not angry…
