Gmail Gets An iPhone 6 And 6 Plus Update

Screen Shot 2014-10-06 at 2.14.31 PM In my initial review of the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, I didn’t spend too much time dwelling on third-party app compatibility. That’s because A) I was content with the way iOS handled upscaling lower-resolution apps, and B) I was primarily spending time in first-party software.

The iPhone 6 Plus Gets Bent

Screenshot 2014-09-23 12.08.16 Every year, Apple announces a new iPhone. And every year, we go through a very similar cycle.

The iPhone 6 (And 6 Plus) Go To Disneyland

IMG_8660 Last week I decided to test the most secretive, hotly anticipated smartphones on earth in a place where there was no danger of them being recognized or damaged or both: Disneyland. Both my wife and I are Disneyphiles of sorts, and visit a dozen times a year or more.
