Skip to content. Usman Loves new tech, especially from Apple and Google. View all of A. It draws much more slowly on complex pages. For example, on the Ext JS examples page , when scrolling the page, it visibly loads in new tiles at the bottom of the page while moving. Also, when zooming in on image rich pages such as our Sencha Touch 2 product page , the same tiling behavior occurs again that rarely occurred on the iPad 2.
The new iPad has two times the memory, and four times the pixels to push, but runs the memory bus at the same speed as the iPad 2. But this latest offering is a mixed bag at best and a disappointment at worst.
The latest set of Apple hardware has regressions compared to the iPad 2 including slower JavaScript performance. And with iOS 5. Particularly for business applications, there is no reason to choose the new iPad over the iPad 2. Great post, Aditya. It was very interesting to see the difference in performance when Jay loaded up our Rvrsit game on the new iPad.
That would make doing columnal layouts of text, which is still one of the most difficult things to get right today, trivial. Good post. The iOS 5. Great article! It should be persistent. Not only does it support virtually everything that is found in Chrome at this point, but it also has excellent support even for old things — such as being able to upload files from your mobile device using the regular old HTML file submit form.
The new iOS is definitely a big let-down for me. Apple seemed to do a great job of giving web-developers a way of doing a lot of stuff, up till this release. It hurts that iCloud pushing is more important than local storage persistance and that performance even on older devices like the iPad 1 for web apps is probably not considered a main priority over having great graphics on the iPad.
The local storage and websql breakage does not seem to be intentional. Bugs filed with Apple remain open and it looks as though they are investigating it seriously. Will that happen? JustinLee yeah, its difficult to get Siri on Oct At the very least it should be available for the iPad 2 since it has the same A5 processor.
Dual-core at the minimum is the future for all mobile devices. I believe that hoping for anything maps, web, weather related will be asking too much of the iPhone 4 processor and it will not be included. Ragamorph I agree. That sounds pretty much possible on iPhone 4 as you said considering the processor power.
It will not work for iPod Touch 1st Gen or 2nd Gen. Is one week enough time to test the GM build? As a pre-caution I would think they would take at least two weeks to test out and release iPhone 4S on the 21st.
I too think its very difficult. But the GM build looks much better. Yet, I have suggested my readers not to update on Oct 12th. Hopefully the beta for iOS 5. I sold my iPhone 4 and pre-ordered an iPhone 4S. Testing those with developers is essential before the public release. Reason 2] iPhone event is confirmed for October 4th. I dont think Apple will release iOS 5 without completing one full week after the event because otherwise Media focus is shifted. Apple will never do it Microsoft way similar to Windows Mobile update recently.
Should I update my iPhone 4 on that day? No ETA available for this as of now. Jailbreaking for iOS 5 is limited at the moment. Its called tethered jailbreak. Which means, everytime you restart your phone — you must have it connected to a computer to boot it in jailbroken state. DeaTaylor and. I am not a developer so I have not tried iOS 5 or iCloud. Just curious to know how ready for prime time they are Thanks.
Interface looks like what we have seen on iPhone. Many features as you could see to improve usability. It feels like we have been missing so many things over the years if u never jailbreaked your phone before. I think, yes there are some bugs but I cant understand why are they not seeing another testing build!!
They seriously need to add a single step way to close ALL backgrounded programs without wearing out the home button. Just like in jailbroken phones running SBSettings. Like when sleeping. Anyone with a jailbroken phone will tell how handy these features are, and if apple wants to discourage jailbreaking they need to consider features such as these or at the very least allow developers to add these to the App Store.
Icky chicken licks Very sorry for the inconvenience. Let me debug this on my office Mac tomorrow. Which OS are you using? Thanks ShadyMcskinnsly. Many features were available on Android before WM Mango update.
Thats not this post is about. Thats where carriers come in picture. TechZoomOrg When will the final version will be available for all users? There are still many things needs to be fixed I guess. What say Johnothan? TechZoomOrg RohanPuram ios5b7 expires on the 21st of this month that could be the realease of ios5. You can also use this on the iPhone , give it a try , Scotty. ScottBishop Is that a desired effect? Hi, did you know on the ipad2 when you exit YouTube you can go into the multi task bar swipe to the volume controls and continue playing the audio from YouTube in the background??
Thanks Scotty b. ElliotCastielBeech I am unable to re-create what u said. True, you can assign but each time you turn your car off then back on you have to tell the phone again to play through the dock connector not the A2DP enable Bluetooth device. I have been hoping for actual options within each connected Bluetooth device to tell it how to handle stuff like music, pics, contacts, etc. Also, have you noticed if you can actually link Bluetooth to another phone and transfer stuff like documents, pics or emails?
That woul be cool if apple finally opened up Bluetooth like other smartphones. Icky chicken licks September 7. Ragamorph Not yet. Glad u liked the article.
For example, say you have your phone docked in your car and your A2DP enabled Bluetooth kit, are you finally able to tell the phone to permanently never play music through the kit. Awesome article, BTW.
The way I see it, ghat means you can finally get your cd collection digitally signed and delete and re-download as. Check out th. Lightboy it is possible to do using apps and universal signal transmitting phone cases.
Including it within iPhone OS will only be helpful when all home accessories start accepting standard Bluetooth 4. Read more about Bluetooth 4. It would be awesome. I had to keep it to get continued pointer numbers. Do you know anything about wifi sync with windows?
I can only get the phone to stay on iTunes sometimes when I unplug. Even then, it will run into problems syncing over wifi. If you swipe left on the camera app, it goes into the pictures. Swiping all the way right goes back to the camera! Yes, only in iOS 5 and onward. It should be released somewhere in September or October along with iPhone 5 mostly.
