iPhone 6s Plus: How big is the battery?

%name iPhone 6s Plus: How big is the battery? by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Apple’s new iPhone 6s models are going to be available in stores in a few days, assuming there’s enough stock to go around, with many preordered units supposed to go out at the same time. The new iPhones are already sold out in online stores around the world, so many potential buyers will not be able to get their hands on the handset in the early days.

In addition to what Apple officially stated about the iPhone 6s models, many things have been discovered unofficially — the kind of information Apple never shares during keynotes or on its website, including RAM amount, A9 clock speed and battery size for the iPhone 6s. One detail that was still missing is the iPhone 6s Plus’ battery size, but a site just posted images of the new phablet’s battery and filled in the remaining blanks.

Of course, you can still get an inexpensive charger that’s not “cheap.” Case in point: The Aukey Quick Charge 2.0 18W USB Turbo Wall Charger on Amazon.

%name iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus reviews: Everything wrong with Apple’s newest phones by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

The reviews are in for Apple’s latest iPhones, and unsurprisingly, everyone seems to love them. With a faster processor, a better camera and 3D Touch capabilities, the iPhone 6s is a step up over the iPhone 6, but not quite the revolution we see with the standard numbered models every other year.

So now that we’ve heard all the praise, it’s time to find the other side of the story.

Big cable companies are fighting to stall new tech that would improve cellular service

%name Big cable companies are fighting to stall new tech that would improve cellular service by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Google Fiber is hardly the only threat to ISP mainstays like Comcast and Time Warner Cable these days. There are three times as many wireless accounts as there are cable broadband accounts in the United States, and wireless growth is seen continuing at a much more rapid pace than land-based broadband growth. What’s more, usage patterns are continuing to shift toward mobile devices and away from traditional computers.

The nation’s top cable companies have spent quite a bit of money of late building out large Wi-Fi networks across the country, and they have spent even more money marketing their networks of Wi-Fi hotspots. Some ISPs are even launching their own Wi-Fi only mobile phone services. Why? Because mobile is the battleground of the future and ISPs need to do everything they can to keep customers connected while they’re on the go.

But a new technology is emerging that may threaten to weaken the quality of ISPs’ Wi-Fi networks while strengthening their competitors’ cellular services, and Big Cable has no plans to take things lying down.

Former GM and BMW executive warns Apple: Your car will be a ‘gigantic money pit’

%name Former GM and BMW executive warns Apple: Your car will be a ‘gigantic money pit’ by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

The Wall Street Journal yesterday reported that Apple is not only moving full steam ahead on its electric car initiative, but is actually taking measures to accelerate development. In addition to tripling the size of its automotive development team, the report claims that Apple has set an internal, and rather ambitious, ship date of 2019.

Of course, the notion of Apple entering the car business is not without its fair share of unanswered questions. Consequently, it’s become somewhat common to hear seasoned auto industry insiders express skepticism about Apple’s plans to enter an industry as foreign, challenging, and cutthroat as the auto industry.

Most recently, former GM and BMW executive Bob Lutz appeared on CNBC and completely dismantled the notion that Apple has even a fighting chance to make even the tiniest dent in the auto industry.
