%name Did a report just uncover the best new feature coming to next year’s iPhone 7s? by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

If you’re on a two-year upgrade cycle, you might want to consider skipping the iPhone 7 and waiting for next year’s model. Apple will reportedly rely on its old friend Samsung to supply it with OLED panels for upcoming iPhone models, according to a report from The Korea Herald. In a deal said to be worth north of $2.5 billion, Samsung in 2017 will begin supplying Apple with 100 million 5.5-inch OLED panels every year for a period of three years.

The 2017 start date is significant because it suggests that the iPhone will incorporate an OLED display on the iPhone 7s. Previously, it was believed that OLED panels wouldn’t make their way into Apple’s smartphone lineup until 2018 with the release of the iPhone 8.

At least nothing Apple does could make App Store search any worse, right?

%name At least nothing Apple does could make App Store search any worse, right? by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Apple is really, really good at some things and really, really bad at others.

You can literally search for some apps by name and not find them anywhere in your results.

Well, Apple is finally starting to take its App Store search problem more seriously according to a new report, and it may have found a way to boost its services revenue in the process.
