AT&T iPhone 6 / 5 Excessive Data Usage Hits Apple with New Lawsuit

The iPhone excess data usage has become a big issue for Verizon and AT&T subscribers. The bug surfaced several years ago. At first, users who were running iOS 6 and iOS 7 complained that their smartphone used too much data on Verizon network. Apple fixed Verizon bug in 2012. Still the issue occurs nowadays on iOS 8 and iOS 9.

The famous Cupertino-based giant is already being suit because of the WiFi Assist iOS 9 option because a lot of users notice how fast this feature gobbles GBs of their data. Customers were unaware of the iPhone 6 excessive data usage as well as earlier phone models when they learned about this feature and started to use it.

For example, AT&T iPhone 5 and AT&T iPhone 5s subscribers experience a very unpleasant bug: iPhone 6 using excessive data because it automatically switches from LTE connection to WiFi network. This is very similar to what Verizon users suffered from years ago and Apple solved the problem through OTA update back then.

For some reasons, AT&T iPhone users had to wait for years until Apple managed to fix this very same issue on iOS 8.1. This was in 2014. Still the iOS 9 update offered this year seems to bring back the old bug to iPhone 5 and 5s models.

How does it happen? The company that filed lawsuit against Apple assures that if you are streaming a video via WiFi on one of these iPhone versions for over 10-20 minutes, your smartphone will start saving the battery life by making A6 / A7 CPU going to sleep. The result is frustrating because this also leads to your handset switching to LTE video streaming and makes you lose your precious GBs of data offered by AT&T.

If you want to fight against iPhone excessive data usage you might want to SIM unlock AT&T iPhone 5 / 5S and choose a different U.S. carrier that doesn’t charge you extra money because of Apple mistakes.

Do you experience this issue on your device?

iPhone 6s Plus India Price Slashed Down for iPhone 6s / 6s Plus

Searching for the best iPhone 6s price in India? Apple seems to make an nice Christmas gift to local customers as it slashed down the cost on the most recent handset generation lineup in this country. When Apple only released the iPhone 6s / 6s Plus in India back in October – the two smartphones were sold at high prices.

The expensive iPhone 6s Plus India price that was offered to consumers didn’t boost iPhone sales. Apple hoped to get 2-3x fold increase in iPhone sales in India because the previous year was very successful or the company however customers didn’t hurry to purchase the new gadget because of its extremely high price.

The sales slowed down. Apple had to offer discounts on both iPhone 6s and 6s Plus and slashed them down by Rs. 6,000 in November. Now, in December, the Cupertino-based giant is lowing down the price on iPhone 6s lineup once again.

This time the price is reduced by Rs. 9,000. This makes both iPhone 6s / 6s Plus in India sold for the nearly the same price as older handset models. Would local consumers purchase the lower priced smartphones for Christmas or New Year Eve?

Apple doesn’t import too many gadgets to India this year because of the reduced customer demand. Still the most recent discount on iPhone 6s and 6s Plus could attract some users who wish to find this gadget under their Christmas tree.

Are you planning to buy the 6s model this year?

Target Mobile Payment System to Compete with Apple Pay

Apple Pay is only a year and a couple of months old. This iOS mobile payment system was introduced in 2014 by the Cupertino-based company. Some experts didn’t believe it could become popular. At first, there were U.S. stores and didn’t want to work with this. Then more and more iPhone users started to enjoy paying without having to carry their credit card and now Target mobile payment plans have appeared.

Different companies followed Apple’s way and also brought their own payment system. Google offers Android Pay feature, Samsung has its mobile payment option and LG as well. Walmart joint this list and now Target also wants to introduceits own payment option.

Would Target mobile payment system really compete with Apple Pay that is about to come to China? It just getsin on the fun and the company that is apart of the Merchant CustomerExchange [which wanted to compete with Apple through CurrentC system]. It’s also curious that some stores that were backeres for this option are now using Apple Pay to make checkout simple and fast.

It is impossible to pay with Apple Pay in Target retail stores. Still the store’s online customers can checkout with ‘fruit’ mobile payment in Target iOS application. Would Apple Pay ever come to your local Target store? We’ve heard the company’s promise to bring it to stores but if Target releasesits own payment system it might not work with Apple.

Would the store name its service Target Pay like Goggle, Apple, Walmart and other companies? Would it be more creative? Since the service is rumored to be released in 2016 we would soon know the answer to this question.

China iPhone Apple Pay Setup to Be Available After New Year Eve

We already heard rumors about Apple working with UnionPay to bring its popular mobile payment system to China. It looks like everything could happen pretty soon. Apple Pay China support could be available as soon as after the New Year Eve.

There is the official confirmation from the Cupertino-based giant about it working with UnionPay and plans to bring this service to China. The iPhone maker has plans to roll out its payment system in this Asian country in early 2016. It should still approve everything with local regulators but it seems that iPhone Apple Pay setup should soon be available in China.

Chinese cartholders who are using UnionPay would also be supported by Apple Pay. This means fast, easy and simple checkout through your iPhone 6s or other iPhone 6 while shopping in local stores.

As stated in reports, the Apple Pay could be supported by QuickPass [this is the mobile payment service that is already working in China and introduced by UnionPay]. What else could it mean to ordinary iPhone users? Well, QuickPass is supported by 15 Chinese banks and if Apple Pay is brought through the same service – users will be able to pay via Apple mobile payment service everywhere in China. This is a great opportunity for the iPhone maker.

There are millions of iPhone fans in China. They are using different Apple gadgets and would be happy to pay with the smartphone as this way they won’t need to carry their credit cards everywhere they go. All the information will be stored in Apple Pay service.

China could be a great new market for developing iPhone payment and making it even more popular than now.

Samsung 3D Touch Phone Similar to Apple iPhone 6s

3D Touch Galaxy S7 that Samsung should unveil next year will remind of current iPhone 6s released by Apple in September 2015. Samsung and Apple are two rival companies that present similar features to customers and fight in the courts regarding patent infringing. So what is the next Galaxy to be like?

Experts believe we would soon see Samsung iPhone 6s copy. The next smartphone developed by this company is expected to get the popular 3D Touch display Apple is already using in its mobile devices. It’s curious how Samsung copies some interesting features offered by Apple and Apple is bringing some recognized features from Samsung to their devices.

Even the courts can’t decide who copies more. Thus the Galaxy S5 got the Touch ID fingerprint scanner introduced earlier by Apple in its iPhone 5s. The next Galaxy S6 model brought some design ideas from the iPhone 6. The upcoming S7 will have to get what it lacks – the 3D Touch screen millions of iPhone 6s and 6s Plus users are already enjoying.

Since the two giants have a real court war because of patent case – Apple would be forced to pay attention at the new Galaxy S7 lineup if it gets the 3D Touch option very similar to the iPhone 6s feature.

Besides the 3D Touch screen the Samsung Galaxy S7 smartphone could also feature the USB Type-C port, better charging option, improved camera that can create nice videos and photos in low-light environment and other interesting specs.

The 2016 Samsung handset models could be unveiled at MWC event next year.

Users are used to iPhone leather skin however the latest accessories offered by Tesla are not ordinary. The company brings unusual leather cases and wallets [if you happen to own Sprint iPhone with bad ESN you can SIM unlock it]. They are made by Tesla that is well known for creating leather interiors for vehicles.

The company decide to use leftover leather from cars and make iPhone case from car seat. Such leather accessories are already in the market. The leather is with RFID blocking and it can be used with the iPhone 6s or iPhone 6s Plus.

Apple Working on Micro LED Displays for iPhone and iPad

While Samsung is believed to bring Apple 3D Touch iPhone 6s feature to its next year’s Galaxy S7 device – Apple is believed to focus on Micro LED displays. This is a new technology that could come to iPhones and other company’s devices in the future.

Experts think that Apple has a secret facility in Taiwan and this facility is working on Apple Micro LED displays for AT&T iPhones and other gadgets. What is Micro LED? All current iPhone models come with LCD screen. Unlike LCD, micro LED displays are thinner because they don’t required the dedicated backlight option. They offer better color gamut but have both advantages and disadvantages.

For example, micro LED displays require a complicated manufacturing process. This is the main problem when it comes to their mass production. Experts are sure that since Apple needs millions of displays for its extremely popular iPhones [you can unlock any iPhone 6s AT&T device] and other devices – it could be hard to meet the consumer demand with micro LED screens that need the TFT procedure.

The Taiwan facility has to find the way to produce millions of micro LED displays and once this task is accomplished – Apple will be ready to release the new iPhone with such a screen. Could it happen in 2016? It’s unlikely to be too soon.

The company would most likely start with iOS 9.2 iPhone OLED screens sometimes in 2017 or 2018. As for mini LED displays, Apple could unveil them for Apple Watch or other products in the future.
