The iPhone 5S is already out and many pair of eyes are now trained on the next big thing – the iPhone 6 release date on 2014 which is expected to deliver the real deal like major hardware upgrades and more of killer iOS 7 features.

More doubts are being erased that buyers will pick up similar-looking, almost, iOS 7 tablets in the upcoming iPad Mini 2 and iPad 5 on their release date, rumoured to happen by mid-part of Q4 2013.

The rumours remain persistent – LG will manufacture the Nexus 5 and the basic make up is patterned after the company’s new flagship, the LG G2, implying that Android fans will get an upscale device for the price of a mid-range phone.

In uncloaking the iPhone 5S this week, Apple largely previewed what it thought as the core killer features that consumers would crave for on the handset’s scheduled Sept 20 release date, highlighted by the Touch ID fingerprint sensor.

No doubt, Apple’s iPhone 6 is roaring hot even if the tech giant remains coy about its supposed phablet-size. So hot that the large-screen iOS 7 smartphone now counts a solid rival and it is a Windows 8.1 device.

As the iPhone 5S gears its way to global markets on Sept 20, its purported chief rival, Google’s Nexus 5, continues to attract numerous renderings, this time based on handset models attached with LG, Motorola and Nokia.

The final and official iOS 7 build will not be out until Sept 18 or two days prior to the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C release date, but current iPhone and iPad owners can avail of this radical iOS device makeover now.

Will the iPhone 6 release date on Q1 2014 prove to be the real deal for Apple as stock prices plunged on the same day that the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C were revealed?

The iPhone 5C specs and features are out with the rumoured name for the supposed budget iOS 7 smartphone sticking. But is the 5C really geared for the price-sensitive market?

With the outing of Samsung’s Galaxy Note 3, tech pundits can’t help but to spar it with Android rivals, preferably those belonging in the exploding phablet class. Almost automatically, the Nexus 5 comes to mind.

Immediately after the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C release date, pegged for Sept 20, Apple is seen by analysts to post record sales thanks to the tandem of the tech giant’s new 2013 flagship and its more affordable sibling.

Prolific iOS device leaker Sonny Dickson was hard at work this week, breaking the supposed iPhone 5S and 5C release week with a heavy dose of what appears as the iPad 5 completed frame, in pictures.

On Sept 10, Apple will unveil two new smartphones in the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C, leading to a supposed release date on Sept 20 that would allow buyers in the U.S. China and Japan to get the handsets ahead of other markets.

Google is going phablet for the Nexus 5, which reportedly is coming out with the LG brand on release date, bearing the codename D820 that is in line with the LG G2’s D802.

For a moment, it appeared that all is set for the much-awaited iPhone 6 release date, rumoured to happen on Sept 20, as Apple reportedly advertised the impending arrival of new iOS applications designed for optimal function with the giant-screen handset.

Only 10 days after the purported iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C release date on Sept 20, Apple is poised to clear up to 13 million freshly-minted iOS 7 smartphones, a new report said, leading to 31 million units of total sales in Sept 2013.

The Google Nexus 5 is one giant phone, relative to the Nexus 4, on release date, according to new reports that point to the stock Android handset passing through the U.S. FCC approval process.

It will be a late 2013 release date for the iPad Mini 2, which as expected is getting significant upgrades such as the high-resolution Retina display panel and a faster A7X processing chip, a new report said.

Could it be that the Apple media event in Sept 10 involves not only the iPhone 5S and the iPhone 5C but also the hotly-speculated iPhone 6? Is it likely too that a simultaneous release date for the three gadgets will happen on Sept 20?

Samsung is unleashing a beast in the Galaxy Note 3, according to newly-leaked specs of the third-gen phablet, giving it a very high benchmark score that exceeds that of the Asian tech giant’s previous flagships.

The stage is all set for the supposed Oct 31 release date of the Google Nexus 5, the most solid evidence so far of the gadget existence provided by the tech giant as it uncloaked Android 4.4 or Kit Kat.

The Google ploy appears to pay off as the 8GB LG Nexus 4 Play Store inventory is reportedly running near to zero level a few months prior to the rumoured Nexus 5 release date on October 31.

The real thing is coming out on Sept 4 but some folks in South Korea still decided to share how they envision the Galaxy Note 3 on its release date.

It is almost confirmed that Apple is working on a large-screen iOS smartphone that analysts calls as the iPhone 6 and its likely release date is anytime between January and March in 2014.

The second half of 2013 is shaping up as one of the most interesting gadget periods of all time. Within the timeframe, two major release dates will happen – that of the iPhone 5S and the Google Nexus 5.

The countdown for the much-awaited iPhone 5S and iPhone 6 release date starts ticking as Apple and its retail partners begin the final push to clear out existing iPhone inventories through promo deals, highlighted by the $98 iPhone 5 at Walmart.

Release date for the Google Nexus 7 with LTE connectivity is reportedly set for September 2013 with Japan and Italy likely getting the vanilla Android tablet first, giving more teeth on Google’s efforts to upend the iPad Mini dominance.

The sustained success of iPhone and Galaxy smartphone releases in the past years is anchored on the lifestyle they represent, a new report said, which surprisingly remains a mystery to other mobile device makers.

Growth prospects for the global tablet market are deeply connected with the iPad Mini 2 and iPad 5 release dates and the absence of which could further slow down the projected shipments by the end of 2013, a new report said.
