That, you may have thought, would slow up the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus on their quest for global domination, but it hasn't.

Posted: 03 Oct 2014 03:16 PM PDT

Apple's iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus media event was the biggest launch of the year, and it even had a little watch too. The roll out of the smartphones has gone well (ahem, bendgate aside) as the handsets have romped to massive sales.

Posted: 03 Oct 2014 08:00 AM PDT

The 2013 version of the Nexus 7 tablet is now receiving its Android 4.4.4 update today, a day after the factory image for the patch was released.
