Can This iPhone 5 Case Really Boost Your Wi-Fi Reception?

If you’re stuck with a limited iPhone data plan and rely heavily on Wi-Fi to avoid overage charges, spending $50 to vastly improve your reception when leeching from free hotspots might sound like a real bargain. That is, if the Linkase manages to deliver on its promise of boosting Wi-Fi reception by as much as…

The Proper Way To Make a Bottle-Opening iPhone Case

This is far from the first attempt at incorporating a bottle opener into an iPhone case. But the Fortress 2 from XGearlive is hands down the only design you should consider. Instead of a clunky slide-out mechanism, or an unsightly bulge on the back, it neatly integrates a subtle opener onto the edge of its…

You Can Stash This Ultra Thin iPhone 5 Charging Cable In Your Wallet

You can never carry too many backup charging cables, and since you probably never leave home without your wallet, the ChargeCard is the perfect accessory for battery-sucking smartphones. It’s only slightly thicker than a credit card, and lets you leech power from any available USB port. The ChargeCard actually started life as a Kickstarter project,…

Mophie Juice Pack Helium for iPhone 5 Review: Wherein Juicing Is A Good Thing

There’s no getting around the iPhone 5’s abysmal battery life. It’s by far the least desirable feature. Mophie hopes to change all that later this month when it starts shipping the helium juice pack, the first “Certified Battery Case Solution” for the iPhone 5. Awesome, right? What Is It? A case for your iPhone that…

Augmented Reality Case Turns Your iPhone Into a (Kind Of) Accurate Tape Measure

There are already a handful of iOS apps that can turn your iPhone into a tape measure (minus the tape) in a pinch, but Incipio’s new Rugged AR Case promises a usable level of accuracy when it comes to measuring distances of up to 20 feet. The secret is a removable triangular augmented reality marker…

Mophie’s iPhone 5 Juice Pack Helium: Double Battery Life for Not Much More Heft

It may pain you to add girth to the iPhone 5’s slender frame, but when a little more junk in your iPhone’s trunk means double the battery life, it’s hard to say no. The new Mophie Juice Pack Helium case promises to do just that and be about 13% lighter than the iPhone 4’s Air…

How to Jailbreak Your iPhone or iPad

Jailbreaking is not a crime, but the special legal exemptions that make it legal have to me made and re-made every couple of years. As the EFF notes, a deadline is fast approaching, and unless the Librarian of Congress makes a special explicit call that jailbreaking is still OK, it could fall into the realm…

The iPhone 5 Jailbreak Is Finally Here

Freedom! It’s been a long time coming, but following last week’s iOS 6.1 release, there’s finally a jailbreak that’ll work on your iPhone 5, and it extends to pretty much every other iOS 6.1 device out there too. Pioneered by Evad3rs, the new jailbreak is untethered and is the first of its kind to work…

You Have To Wait One More Day for an iPhone 5 Jailbreak

That iOS 6.1 jailbreak that was maybe probably definitely supposed to come out today, courtesy of evad3rs? Bad news; it’s not coming until tomorrow. Despite the rumored (and hoped) Super Bowl-day launch date, we’ll all have to wait just a little longer. When the jailbreak does eventually come through, it’ll support all iPhones, iPads, and…

The Only Case I Would Consider Using With an iPhone (Updated)

Update: Judging by the overwhelmingly negative reviews, this product looks good but it’s crap. I definitely wouldn’t consider it now. No, you don’t need a damn case for your iPhone 5—but if you have butterfingers and you must use a case, this seems to me like the only acceptable one. The SurfacePad is not only…

An iOS 6.1 Jailbreak for iPhone 5 Is Definitely Probably Maybe Coming This Sunday

iPhone 5 users have been waiting a long, long time for a jailbreak. Sure, the current versions of iOS have been opened, but unlucky kids with A6 chips and the fancy new Apple devices they come in have been out of luck. But no longer! Probably. With today’s release of iOS 6.1, jailbreak release rumors…

Sorry Apple, the BlackBerry Z10 Is Hotter Than the iPhone

I’ve always hated BlackBerry phones. Disgracefully ugly bricks they were—until the BlackBerry Z10. The BlackBerry Z10 is hot. Truly beautiful, elegant hardware.

Yes, Apple Is Cutting Down iPhone 5 Orders (and It Isn’t Giving Any Explanation)

The New York Times confirmed today that Apple is drastically cutting iPhone 5 orders, just as the Wall Street Journal and Nikkei of Japan reported yesterday. Apple hasn’t answered the reports, even while there is really no excuse not to do so except the perfectly fine “because we don’t want to.” https://gizmodo.com/wsj-apple-cuts-orders-of-iphone-parts-following-low-de-5975661 It’s too early…
