Apple iPhone 5: Everything You Need to Know

And so here it is, the much anticipated new IPhone 5. The reviews such as the one featured here by Gizmodo seem pretty positive. All in all incremental improvements across the board including weight (it weighs less), camera (better and more features including panorama feature), battery (lasts longer), CPU (quicker / better). Good full review by Gizmodo. Have been informed by a friend in the know on mobile @stobbsc that there is an inaccuracy in their report RE it being the thinnest smartphone or LTE phone. The Motorola Driod Razor is 7.1mm

The new iPhone 5 is here. It's thinner and faster than ever, with a new form factor that uses a gorgeous panoramic screen with more resolutions and less consumption. It also surfs the web much faster, thanks to its new LTE capabilities. And, just as we knew, it has a new smaller dock connector called Lightning.

Overall, it seems they have incrementally improved every single aspect of the iPhone. It's not a revolutionary phone, but it is a very nice release.

The iPhone 5 looks exactly as the leaked images: an unibody aluminum body with a glass screen. "It's thinner than the previous generation: 18 percent thinner, which puts it at 0.29 inches (7.6 millimeter). They are claiming this is the world's thinnest smartphone. It's actually the world's thinnest LTE smartphone.

Hello World by simuddell - Blog Post Number 1

Ok, well here I am in the blogosphere, so hello world.

Although I am very active on social media and regulary read loads of blog posts, I must admit I have not really ever taken to writing regular blog posts; until now.

This blog is going to simply be about all the many things I find interesting. Things that fascinate me, ideas worth sharing (to steal a phrase from TED), philosophy, general cool shiz, muso, food, art, films, books, ideologies, history, sport, marketing, psychology and well...anything and everything else that I find interesting!

This is a place where I am not going to fret about poor grammar. Let it roll of the tongue, let is be open and un-spoilt by overthinking and the constant threat of the grammar guardians lurking inside my cranium. This is a place where expression is free and opionions are unguarded. Most importantly let the blogging commence.

So on that note, hello world and please feel free to say hi back.
