In the ...

Tim Cook spent a good amount of time yesterday telling us how well the iPhone was performing in sales over the last quarter. One interesting point he made during the conference call, is that more Android users had switched to iOS with the launch of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, than ever before, something hard to ...

So much of our discussion of the Galaxy S6 has focused on hardware – whether that's choice of SoC, external design, or support for accessories – that's its tempting to gloss over the software that will ultimately run on the upcoming Samsung flagship.
