iPhone sales usually drop in the months leading up to a major iPhone launch, since more informed buyers interested in purchasing an Apple smartphone would rather wait for the new models to launch than buy last year’s device.

Smartphone companies copy each other all the time, and that includes Apple. We know, we know. But there’s one vendor that finds itself in the news for copying its top rival a bit more often than most, and there is actual evidence that appeared in court suggesting that Samsung copies Apple more actively than other companies. So, when Apple comes out with a hot new feature like 3D Touch on the iPhone 6s, many Apple fans begin half-jokingly asking the question: When is Samsung going to copy it?

The company often sets new standards, becoming the de facto company rivals compare their products against – just see footage from Microsoft’s recent Surface event to see how many times Apple products were mentioned. But what Apple doesn’t do is jump on a new technology, especially for the iPhone, until it’s truly ready for primetime.

Apple stays out of hardware wars with other smartphone makers when it comes to screen size, camera megapixels, mobile chip cores and RAM, choosing to roll out updates in each area once the tech is up to its standards.

The best-selling item in Amazon’s huge Camera & Camcorder Lens Bundles section isn’t a kit of fancy lenses for a Canon DSLR. It’s also not a lens bundle for a popular mirrorless camera from Sony. No, the best-selling package in Amazon’s Camera & Camcorder Lens Bundles section is a terrific little bundle of three lenses that clip onto your iPhone or Android phone and make your smartphone photos look like they were shot on a professional camera.
