.chipworks.com/en/technical-competitive-analysis/resources/blog/inside-the-iphone-6-and-iphone-6-plus/" target="_blank">reports that the new smartphones from Apple are using two different accelerometers.





First of the 2 accelerometers is Bosch’s three-axis BMA280 accelerometer, and the other is reportedly InvenSense’s six-axis MPU-6700. As far as the reason behind using two accelerometers go, Chipworks believes that the usage of two components not only helps in better power management, also improves overall user experience.

The InvenSense component is more sensitive, can do more things than the Bosch component and it also takes more power. For gaming and other applications requiring “sophisticated inertial sensing capabilities,” these latest iPhones will be using InvenSense. But for more simpler tasks, such as rotating screen or tracking footsteps, Bosch accelerometer will be used, which takes lesser power and responds faster.

The Bosch accelerometer has a significantly faster cold start time of 3ms, as compared to InvenSense’s 30ms, which means user will see less delay. This remarkable use of engineering trick results not only in less power consumption, but also a better user experience.

Apple unveiled larger iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus models during a media event on September 9th. Both smartphones went on sale on September 19th. The new iPhones have larger displays, bigger batteries, thinner body and runs iOS 8. iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus broke all the previous sales record by with 10 million units sold in first week of launch.

as tokens, along with the encrypted keys responsible for the cryptogram, are all securely stored in the Secure Element.

And as an extra security precaution, iPhone owners will have the ability to unlink or temporarily suspend a token connected to a stolen device, thereby rendering Apple Pay inoperable until the device is retrieved.

I may be skeptical about Apple Pay in Europe, but the way it's been built and will operate is fascinating. (I'm even more curious to know if integration with Safari will happen for web payments eventually).

Tom Hanks worked with Stuart Westphal of Hitcents to create the app and the end result is remarkable. Tom Hanks has a self-disclosed obsession with traditional typewriters, telling USA Today that his collection once held 200 typewriters.

“I suppose some people who get the app may just be looking for a different sound, but really it’s for people searching for a more personalized experience when writing on an iPad,” he says. “There’s also the opportunity here to take your iPad to a coffee house and be really obnoxious with all the clickety-clacking.”

As you might imagine there is very little you can do to customize Hanx. Here is a list of included and extra features:

Hanx Prime Select (free typewriter)
Hanx 707 ($2.99)
Hanx Jolden Touch ($2.99)
Alternate background colors
Black Ribbon
Red Ribbon (included in Writer’s block bundle)
Blue Ribbon (included in Writer’s block bundle)
PDF export options

Here’s a video demonstrating all of the free and purchase options:

Developer Stuart Westphal tells USA Today:

“He mainly said don’t make it gimmicky, so it had to work with a Bluetooth keyboard, which is really where you get the full effect of seeing a blank white page slowly fill with black type,” says Westphal, noting that the partnership with Hanks was spearheaded through a connection with Creative Artists Agency in Los Angeles. “Tom wanted people to want to sit down and write a poem or screenplay with it.”
