    Apple Aired Four New iPhone 5 TV Ads Starring T.P.C.E

    As the iPhone 5 makes a debut in several countries around the globe, today Apple started to air four new T.V ads for the iPhone 5. The all-new four T.V ads codenamed by us are T.P.C.E. these short forms of the long named T.V adverts might look a bit strange. These four symbols are carrying the first letter of all the four adverts. The names of the different four adverts are as follows.

    1. Thumbs

    2. Physics

    3. Cheese

    4. Ears

    Above are the four T.V adverts that Apple aired today for the new iPhone 5. When we combine these four new T.V adverts, they make the name of T.P.C.E that sounds something related to rocket science. However, there is no rocket science involved in the letters and even in T.V Adverts.

    Lets start with the first letter “T” that represents “Thumb”.

    iPhone 5 TV Ad – Thumb

    Then comes the number of “P”

    iPhone 5 TV Ad – Physics

    Then comes the number of “C”

    iPhone 5 TV Ad – Cheese

    And finally, comes the number of “E”

    iPhone 5 TV Ad – Ears

    In the first Ad of Thumb, Apple clearly explains the efficient of Thumb with an iPhone 5. Then in the second Ad, Apple compares the iPhone 5 with the law of Physics. In the third Ad of Cheese, Apple shows off with the Panorama feature that they introduced in iOS 6. In the end, Apple showed off the innovation that they made to headphones with a complete new design.

    After seeing all the four iPhone 5 T.V adverts, don’t forget to tell us about the one you liked the most.

  • More Than 400 Units of iPhone 5 Stolen from The U.K and Japan

    More Than 400 Units of iPhone 5 Stolen from The U.K and Japan

    While the people around the globe were, busy in the emerging lines for the iPhone 5, the carriers and Apple Retail Stores were busy in setting up the iPhone 5 on display, more than 400 units of the iPhone 5 were stolen from different locations around the globe. The robbery occurred at those carrier Retail Stores where the security was left in dark and no one was present to look after them. The Apple Retail Stores on the other hand had the security tightened because the staff was hooking the iPhone 5 on display and were putting up display banners for todays launch worldwide.

    A total of 191units were stolen from three different shops owned by carrier’s partner KDDI and Softbank in the Osaka area in Japan. The major carrier partner to get affected in this robbery is Softbank Japan; whose store had iPhone 5 stock wipe cleaned before the official launch. The police are investigating the robbery and they have not yet confirmed about the culprits of the case, reports WSJ.

    [A] Softbank Corp store in the western district of Osaka city was wiped clean of its iPhone 5 stock. All 116 devices were stolen, including one store display. The police said they were taken from the locked backroom within a four minute span from 4:24 a.m. as shown on security camera footage. The video recording also showed there were three culprits, all likely to be male. The police said it is uncertain whether the robbery is related to the incident in Ibaraki, located about 20 minutes away by car.

    According to the above report, the robbery was completed in the time span of four minutes in total as shown in the camera footage. The Softbank Store had total of 116 units iPhone 5 stolen in just four minutes of time span. Remaining seventy-five units were stolen from different locations.

    iphone_5_stolen_o2_japan

    The iPhone 5 didn’t become the victim in Japan only. The United Kingdom reportedly faced the same robbery issue at its O2 Shop. About 252 units of iPhone 5 were stolen from the O2 shop in London. The Independent reports the theft was an inside job.

    Officers want to speak to Usman Sethi, 23, of Audley Gardens, Ilford, east London, who works as an assistant at the store.

    The phones were taken at 1.30am, with a quantity of cash which was also stolen from the shop’s safe. […]

    Police also want to speak to Mr Sethi, a Pakistani national, in connection with the theft of jewellery belonging to a family member from his home address in Audley Gardens.

    The culprit behind the iPhone 5 252 Units stolen is said to be MR. Usman Sethi, the person who used to work as an assistant at the store.

    The sole iPhone 5 unit of 16GB capacity is on sale for £529, if we calculate the total amount expecting the 16GB capacity of iPhone 5, we get £133,308. If we calculate for the 32GB iPhone 5, we would get around £150,948. This means the person who stole iPhone 5 units would become a millionaire even if he sells the iPhone 5 on Craig list.

  • iPhone 5 Jailbroken on iOS 6 With Cydia Teased by CHPWN

    iPhone 5 Jailbroken on iOS 6 With Cydia Teased by CHPWN

    The date of September 21 must be recorded in the Guinness Book of World Record. On this date and day, many amazing things were done. The same day iPhone 5 went on sale, iPhone 5 kicked the arse of Galaxy S III and the iPhone 5 was PWNED by Grant Paul (CHPWN), the iOS hacker. Today after the iPhone 5 went on sale, every one got their hands on the iPhone 5 including some of the Dev-Team Members for sure and out of them Grant Paul has got one for sure because he PWNED the iPhone 5 running iOS 6 the same day it got released. This new news of iPhone 5 Jailbroken is spreading like a fire in the jailbreak community.

    While people were getting the iPhone 5, no one even imagined about the Jailbreak would be done this fast. Every one including us thought the Jailbreak would come some time after 3-4 months of time span. However, today, our expectation went wrong. The iPhone 5 got Jailbreaked the same day it went on sale. CHPWN teased an image of the iPhone 5 showing Cydia on the taller screen of a 4-inch display.

    Few minutes back, @CHPWN Tweeted from official Twitter account showing an image of Cydia on the taller display.

    iphone_5_jailbroken_cydia

     

    Now doubt the taller screen likes Cydia too, but the icon of Cydia is small. The icon of Cydia needs to made a big tall to fit on the larger display.

    A part from the picture of Cydia on iPhone 5, the Jailbreak for the iPhone 5 is not coming until few weeks. The Jailbreak needs to work on and to make Cydia compatible iOS 6. When the work is done, the Jailbreak would be released. So far, the Jailbreak for A4 Devices is also not present now on iOS 6 because of the broken status of Cydia on iOS 6.

    Once Cydia ahs been worked on, the Jailbreak would be out for iOS 6 on limited devices. The limitation will be up to A4 devices. People owning an iPhone 4S, iPad 2, iPad 3, and the iPhone 5 would need to wait until a perfect solution hasn’t been found. After seeing Cydia on iPhone 5, we don’t think that it will take iOS 6 Jailbreak long to arrive. We expect the Jailbreak in few weeks because iOS 6 got some bugs by which the Jailbreak can be done/found easily.

    If you have bought an phone 5 today or will be buying one in near future, don’t just wait for the Jailbreak to arrive and then buy one, instead go an buy one for yourself before Apple releases another iOS 6 update to fix the previous bugs.

  • Apple iPhone 5 Prices and Specifications in Pakistan

    Apple iPhone 5 Prices and Specifications in Pakistan

    The iPhone 5 is a very hot topic leading the famous websites these days. Everywhere you will find many gossips about the iPhone 5. Some one must be criticizing the iPhone 5 and some one must be busy in finding when the iPhone 5 would be landing in his/her country, so they could get hands on to it. Recently we reported about the line emerging at the Fifth Ave Store of Apple located in the New York. People are lining up for the iPhone 5 after every hour. After every hour, the line grows by a group of two people or more in the New York for the iPhone 5. Although there are, still twenty hours left approximately for the iPhone 5 launch in the New York.

    Amazingly, Pakistan would be having iPhone 5 unofficially by Mobile Retailers the same time or after the official launch in U.S. This might sound a bit strange but technically, it is true. Always Pakistan has gotten the new lineups of the Apple products before the official launch has been done worldwide. There is a long story behind the Apple Products being launched in Pakistan before rest of the world. We will update you with the story sometime else. As for now, we will update you with the iPhone 5 price, specs, and what to see before buying an iPhone 5 in Pakistan.

    apple_iphone_5_price_pakistan

    As we know that Pakistan doesn’t have the iPhone series officially launched, the iPhone’s are imported by the Mobile Retailers from different places and sold over here at different rates. When a person goes to buy an iPhone from the retailer, he is not aware of the real time facts or the things that he should know about the iPhone before buying it. The customer simply hops into the shop and buys the iPhone. When the purchasing behavior is done, the customer then regrets the purchase behavior or faces many problems after the purchase behavior. This thing is very common in Pakistan. We have personally seen people banging their heads after buying an iPhone.

    To solve that head banging issue we wrote a complete for every one who needs to buy an iPhone. The guide doesn’t include the iPhone 5 part; we will update it sometime later. The guide is available for Download over here.

    Now lets start with the iPhone 5 Specifications that would be great for people of Pakistan. The Specifications mentioned below would be really helpful when buying an iPhone 5 from any Mobile Retailer in the city.

    Apple iPhone 5 Specifications

    The iPhone 5 doesn’t comes or isn’t made different for the people of Pakistan. They will get the same iPhone 5 that the rest of the world be having. The only difference would be of Models.

    The iPhone 5 comes in three different models starting from GSM+4G LTE, CDMA+4G LTE, and GSM + Edge.

    Cellular and Wireless Specifications:

    • GSM model A1428*: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); LTE (Bands 4 and 17)
    • CDMA model A1429*: CDMA EV-DO Rev. A and Rev. B (800, 1900, 2100 MHz); UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); LTE (Bands 1, 3, 5, 13, 25)
    • GSM model A1429*: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); LTE (Bands 1, 3, 5)

    Above are the three models of the iPhone 5 that a person gets to choose from.

    Over here, there are two GSM Models and one CDMA Model. We are only interested in the GSM Model of the iPhone 5. The CDMA Model is useless for Pakistan because there is no CDMA Cellular service in Pakistan.

    After setting our interest in the GSM Model, one complication arises in LTE Bands. The LTE Bands differ from each other in the GSM Model, which is not a headache for the person buying an iPhone 5 in Pakistan until the person needs to use the iPhone 5 internationally. We are not sure about the LTE Bands because they are referring to different carriers that are supporting an iPhone 5.

    Which Model to Buy?

    We would recommend going for any GSM Model and not for the CDMA Model. Mostly people buy a CDMA Model and end up having it sold on different online websites.

    Capacity of the iPhone 5:

    The iPhone 5 comes in three different capacities of 16 GB, 32 GB, and 64 GB. These are the three capacities available in the iPhone 5 and the preceding iPhone 4S.

    How much of Capacity iPhone 5 to buy?

    We would recommend 16GB of capacity for the iPhone 5 because no one utilizes full capacity of 16GB. At most, people go for 32GB. The highest capacity available in Pakistan is 32GB. No shopkeeper brings in 64GB because no one buys that much of capacity iPhone until the person needs to show off.

    Colors of the iPhone 5:

    The iPhone 5 comes in two colors. One is Black and Slate. The second is White and Silver.

     

    Apple iPhone 5 Prices in Pakistan:

    The iPhone 5 would be priced different in Pakistan. Every Mobile retailer has his own prices. The prices that we came across are of PKR 90,000 and PKR 115,000 for Factory Unlock piece. We are not sure about the colors because the price varies for the color. The white color is priced high and the black one is priced a bit low than the white one.

    **The prices told above are tentative and may be changed with the passage of time.

    However, the iPhone 5 hasn’t landed in Pakistan yet, so we got two people on hand that are taking pre-orders for the iPhone 5. One is Londonstuioonline and the other one is a local Mobile Shop located in Dalton Market, Karachi.

    When to buy an iPhone 5?

    According to us, buy the iPhone 5 after few months. The prices of the iPhone 5 would relatively go down and by that time you will have a clear idea whether to buy one or not.

    If you need any help regarding the Apple iPhone 5 Prices and Specifications in Pakistan, feel free to contact us via the contact us section.

  • Apple iPhone 5 Pre-Orders Start in Pakistan With Delivery in Two Days

    Apple iPhone 5 Pre-Orders Start in Pakistan With Delivery in Two Days

    The mimics about the iPhone 5 are going high these days. Every one is talking about the new iPhone 5 released by Apple the last week. The new iPhone 5 got a fully redesigned body and whole lot of new features with increased screen size. This new overhaul in design is not accepted by some of the Apple Fans. They say that Apple has just wasted their time and haven’t made anything new. It is the same old shit with an increment in the screen. No doubt, they are right about the design. However, we think about the iPhone 5 in a different way. We appreciate the design made by Apple with an increment in the screen.

    At this point of confusion, people will start to make a debate on the topic that we don’t want to do. Therefore, we would finish the design or size topic and lets move to the real thing. As we, all know the iPhone 5 Pre-Orders started on September 14 and the iPhone 5’s were to be shipped by September 21 that is just few hours away. The initial launch was targeted to specific countries including U.S.A, Australia, U.K, France, Germany, Singapore, Japan, and Hong Kong. Later on September 28, the doors for the iPhone 5 launch will be opened for many other countries.

    Over here, we are hearing about the iPhone 5 to land in Pakistan the same time the iPhone 5 is landing in U.S.A. to be clear, the iPhone hasn’t launched officially in Pakistan since the first launch of iPhone 2G in 2007. Apple has never ever announced any official launch or made Pakistan as the launch country until now. However, amazingly the iPhone 5 is going to be landing in Pakistan unofficially on the same above date of September 21. The amazing thing about the launch of iPhone 5 is that, it is available for pre-order online on the website called “londonstudioonline”. This website is accepting iPhone 5 Pre-Orders online on their website and aims to deliver the iPhone 5 in just two days. That is September 22 or September 23, you would be having iPhone 5 at your doorstep without any hustle.
