RIP Queen Elizabeth II

9-9-2022, Auckland, New Zealand:  

If The queen has million fans, 
then I'm one of them. 

If The Queen has 5 fans I'm one of them. 

If the queen has one fan, then I'm THAT ONE. 

If The Queen has no fans, that means I'm dead. 

If the world is againt The queen than im against the world.

Rumors Apple's 2022 iPhones 14....

Rumored Features
6.1 and 6.7-inch sizes
No notch
Large pill-shaped camera cutout
A15/A16 chip
Qualcomm X65 modem

Rumored 2022 iPhone Lineup
iPhone sizes are changing in 2022, and Apple is eliminating the 5.4-inch iPhone mini as it turned out to be unpopular with customers. After seeing lackluster iPhone mini sales, Apple is planning to focus on larger iPhone sizes for its flagship devices going forward, and we're expecting to see a 6.1-inch iPhone 14, a 6.1-inch iPhone 14 Pro, a 6.7-inch iPhone 14 (Max or Plus), and a 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Pro Max. Note that there will be no 5.4-inch iPhone 14 mini this year.

Since 2017, iPhones with Face ID have had a notch at the front to house all the necessary equipment for facial scanning, but that's set to change with the launch of the iPhone 14. The 2022 iPhone 14 Pro models are expected to eliminate the notch in favor of a new design. Rumors were all over the place for a bit, but it looks like Apple will go with some combination of a circular hole-punch cutout for the camera paired with a pill-shaped cutout to house to key Face ID components, with the two holes combined into a single long pill-shaped cutout using software. This new design will be limited to the Pro models, and the more affordable iPhone 14 models will continue to feature a standard notch.

We are not expecting any significant design changes this year, but the camera bumps for the 14 Pro models could get thicker. Apple is also expected to introduce new color options, adding a purple color for both Pro and standard iPhone 14 models.

New iPhones always include camera improvements, and the iPhone 14 is no exception. The Pro iPhone models are expected to get 48-megapixel cameras and 8K video recording capabilities, but these features will not be available on the standard iPhone 14 models. Apple is also working on improvements to the Telephoto lens and the Ultra Wide lens, again limited to the Pro models, but there may also be some new functionality for the regular iPhone 14 models.

Rumors suggest that the iPhone 14 models are likely to continue to use the same A15 chip that was introduced in the iPhone 13 series, while the iPhone 14 Pro models receive an updated A16 chip. This would mark the first time that the Pro iPhone models get a faster chip, with Apple perhaps going this route to cut down on costs and also because of ongoing supply issues.

Apple is expected to use Qualcomm's Snapdragon X65 chip, which is the first 10-gigabit 5G modem with faster connectivity speeds and connectivity improvements. Alongside the X65, Apple is expected to introduce new satellite-based emergency features that will let users send texts in emergency situations and report accidents with no cellular coverage.

For most of the rumor cycle, it was assumed that Apple would name the 6.7-inch iPhone 14 that's in the works the "iPhone 14 Max" to match the "Pro Max" naming that's been used for several years now. We were counting on the iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Max, iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone 14 Pro Max.

As it turns out, Apple might go in a different direction. Rumors now suggest that the 6.7-inch standard iPhone 14 will instead be known as the "iPhone 14 Plus," which would distinguish it from the iPhone 14 Pro Max and would likely be less confusing to those not familiar with the iPhone lineup.

If accurate, we can count on getting the 6.1-inch iPhone 14, the 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Plus, the 6.1-inch iPhone 14 Pro, and the 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Pro Max.
No Notch and New Face ID Hardware Design (Pro Only)

For at least some of the iPhone 14 models, namely the Pro models, Apple is working to eliminate the notch that houses the hardware needed for Face ID. The notch was a controversial design decision when it was introduced in 2017, and since then it's changed little with the exception of the size tweak with the iPhone 13.

Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said in March 2021 that the 2022 iPhone models would not have a notch, and would instead adopt a hole-punch style design that's been popular on many Android phones. Since then, rumors have evolved and we have a clearer picture of what to expect.

iOS 16 Launch—Stunning New iPhone Features Arriving Next Month

31st August, 2022:  Auckland, New Zealand

iOS 16 Launch:  Stunning New iPhone Features Arriving Next Month
Apple's iOS 16 is about to launch, along with a bunch of stunning new iPhone security and privacy features. So far, iOS 16 highlights include Passkeys, which Apple is hoping will mark the first step away from using passwords on your iPhone, and a new way to prove you aren't a bot.

Other cool new iPhone features arriving this Fall include Lockdown Mode, Safety Check and the ability to unsend iMessages and emails. Here are all the iOS 16 security and privacy features you need to know about.

iOS 16 fixes the most annoying thing about the internet—CAPATCHAs
Apple is finally fixing the annoying internet CAPATCHA boxes that leave us all fuming as we try to guess how many trucks are in a picture. Announced at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), the iOS 16 feature will use a Private Access Token to verify you to the website or app. This all happens in iOS 16 via iCloud, which will verify your device and Apple ID in the background so there's no need for the CAPTCHA prompt. I cannot wait.

Passkeys
In iOS 16, Apple is taking the first steps towards getting rid of passwords altogether. Most of the industry agrees that passwords aren't great, and biometric forms of authentication such as Face ID and Touch ID are a perfect alternative partly because they are so easy to use. It's with this in mind that Apple—along with other big tech firms such as Google and Microsoft—is part of the FIDO Alliance.  Part of this initiative, Passkeys are based on the WebAuthn standard and use public key cryptography to secure your accounts. In iOS 16, this will mean you can simply use Face ID and Touch ID to authenticate yourself.

Unsend Messages
This very cool new iOS 16 privacy feature allows you to unsend or recall any iMessages or emails you didn't mean to send. You can use Unsend Messages in iOS 16 via a tool marked Undo Send and the only give away if you've edited the message will be a tiny "edited" showing under the text.

Lockdown Mode
Lockdown Mode is one of the headline features of iOS 16, even though most people won't use it. On the face of it, Lockdown Mode seems pretty cool—additional iPhone security protection from damaging spyware attacks such as Pegasus.

Lockdown Mode in iOS 16 protects iPhones from attack by effectively making them unusable. Using Lockdown Mode, most message attachments are blocked, link previews are disabled and FaceTime calls are blocked if you haven't sent the initial request. This will make it difficult to deliver spyware to someone at risk—such as a journalist or political dissident.

But the thing is, most people aren't at risk from Pegasus, so think of Lockdown Mode as something good to know—and of course, great PR for Apple promoting the iPhone as a robust device.

Security updates in iOS 16
Apple iOS 16 will come with a bunch of security fixes too. It's unclear whether Apple will continue to update iOS 15 with important security updates, but even if it does, you'll have to upgrade to iOS 16 after a couple of months to keep your iPhone secure.
