iPad 3 should get a full release March 7, but will people want the iPad 3 or iPhone 5 more? Both will be must-have devices for millions of people, and we can expect thousands of people to camp out in a couple weeks when the iPad goes on sale. But, can any device build up as much hype as the iPhone?

Apple announced on Monday that its iOS App Store, which is available for the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch, has sold more than 25 billion apps, and the winner of the App Store Countdown to 25 Billion Apps is Chunli Fu of Qingdao, China.

There is no denying that the Smartphone Battle of the Year 2012 will be between two giants, the Apple iPhone 5, and Samsung Galaxy S3, both of which are yet to be released. MWC (Mobile World Congress) came and went and nothing about the Galaxy S3 was shown by Samsung, which means, the company could be playing its cards close to the chest, or waiting to see what Apple has in store before it does anything. Apple on the other hand, remains tightlipped as usual, about what the next generation iPhone...

No denying the fact that Apple’s Siri is a runaway success, and also the key feature in the iPhone 4S that helped the device to surpass expectations when it was released in late 2011. Siri, which is not considerably better than most voice recognition software when it comes to returning results, is mostly known for its human-like interaction and fun to use. Google is well aware of the threat Siri could cause, and is hard at work on releasing a competing product known as “Assistant.”

When the entire world is counting almost every moment in anticipation of the grand release of Apple's iPad 3, iPhone 5 speculation is slowly yet steadily gaining strength among the smartphone enthusiasts.

As the iPad 3 release date nears, rumors surrounding the next-generation iPhone 5 have accelerated, with talk of new features, software and launch date.

Apple plans to unveil something it wants us to see and touch, according to the press invites it sent out at the end of February. It could be an all new iPad 3, of course, but Apple could opt to debut a new iOS version 6 as well. Other rumors include a new Apple TV 2, iPad Mini announcement or an iPod Touch.

Rumor mills are all buzzing about iPad 3, as the next generation Apple tablet is expected to be unveiled on Wednesday, March 7. However, let’s not forget that something bigger (though not literally) is expected to debut later this year (supposed in Fall) – iPhone 5 – a device that has generated more hype than all iPads combined.

Apple is quite certain to equip the next generation iPad (dubbed iPad 3) with Retina Display (2048x1536 pixels resolution). The leaked images of iPad 3 screen, tested under microscope, in February 2012, suggested the resolution is about to double in the new tablet. But not only a higher display resolution, iPad 3 may also be unveiled with next generation iOS a.k.a. iOS 6, if a report by Ars Technica is to be believed.

With rumors about the upcoming flagship smartphones of both Apple and Samsung getting momentum day by day, the two rivals are gearing up for the release of their best weapons - iPhone 5 (or whatever Apple will name it) and Galaxy S3 respectively.

Rumors have been circulating about a possible A6 chip in the highly anticipated iPad 3, but Ars Technica has published some analysis that suggests some iPads are already running on iOS 6 software .

Apple's iPhone 5 and the Samsung Galaxy S3 are two of the most anticipated phones for 2012, but with no official word on specs and features; How do the rumors for each phone measure up?

Everyone is talking about the iPad 3--its rumored specs, features, ahead of the highly anticipated March 7 release date--but what if it were to be called the iPad HD? It seems pretty likely, after all, techies went into the speculated iPhone 5 event and came out with an iPhone 4s.

As Apple gearing up for the release of its next generation iPhone, presumably named the iPhone 5, amazing hype surrounds the smartphone with rumors confounding customers about when the device will finally be launched and what the features will be on board.

After going head to head with the iPhone 4S, the Samsung Galaxy S2 was crowned the Best Smartphone at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona on Thursday.

Once Apple unveils the new iPad March 7, we'll know for sure if it's an iPad 3 or and iPad 2S, but what's the difference in how they name their devices? An iPad 3 would mean a new body design like when the iPhone 4 came out. It was a different shape than the iPhone 3GS, with less curved edges and with an all new glass back panel.

Blackberry maker Research in Motion Ltd is likely to preannounce poor February quarter results and forecast a very weak May quarter on lower sales of its phones, according to Jefferies & Co analysts.

Lawyers for Apple Inc. argued for its right to use the iPad trademark in China on Wednesday, as a higher court began a crucial hearing that could result in sales of the wildly popular tablet computer being halted throughout the Chinese mainland.

Another iOS security concern, when will it end? New to the scene is a security loophole in the way iOS allows users to share information about their location. An application that implements this feature could grab user photos for the developer’s viewing pleasure. We are not certain how this is happening, but at the moment, that doesn’t matter. What does matter, however, is how fast will Apple release a fix to combat the problem.

Motorola is out in full force and ready to compete directly with Apple, or better yet, Siri in this matter. Apple released its iPhone 4S smartphone back in Oct. 2011 to much disappointment and fanfare. Despite the phone lacking key features and a decent hardware boost, one little lady came to the rescue to set the iPhone 4S apart from everything else out on the market. Her name is Siri. However, now Motorola is gunning for Siri with videos of its own test, which claims Android Voice Actions is m...
