Relevant to your post: People seem to have forgotten that an entire working phone was leaked under Jobs when they bash Cook for security.
Now we can use our paltry data buckets up that much faster!
To bad i have AT&T. LTE speeds, give me a break, 4 bars and it maxes out at 4mbps. What good is a high speed LTE modem in a phone if the carrier makes it a brick.
Tell me again what stockholders are good for
If Tim does a bad job the stock goes down and they sell
If Tim does a good job the stock goes up and the sell
Ok I think I answered my own question

yeah the leaks are really out of control
if they do present a watch though, they did a stellar job of preventing leaks
"Bold enough to charge forward" is one way of saying it.
"Willing to make sacrifices in order to scream 'FIRST!" on many aspects of hardware and software that no one cares about or uses" would be another.
A purpose of leaks can be to condition you to get over your disappointment by showtime.
How reliable is Feld & Volk? I mean, I understand they "built" an iPhone 6 - but where did they get the list of parts from, and who authenticated the parts list? Just because I can build something that looks like an iPhone 6 and make it run iOS doesn't make it the product in mass production. Just curious.
Has anyone else noticed that all the names on the chips are scratched off or blurred?
Tomorrows headline - 'Apple buys and shuts down luxury modified iPhone vendor Feld & Volk'
It's actually the other way around:More capacity for everyone.
If that capacity weren't there, you likely wouldn't even get 4mbps.
I am wondering if it is intentional?! It started right after Steve Job died! I recall Apple dispatching SFPD to retrieve a lost copy of iPhone 4 or 4S.
Assuming there is a wearable the answer to the riddle may be that they are expanding production in the US. Consider that the iPhone and iPad are made in China and most leaks are sourced to Chinese and Taiwan news sources.
On the flip, the new Mac Pro was produced in the US and there were only leaks that there was going to be one but nothing about it. So it's possible the new wearable and even perhaps the new TV set box are US productions and thus Apple has the legal backing to keep leaks from happening.
...and how did you come to that conclusion?
Everything I could google on this chip, came up with no information on that.
Also results suggests that it’s more or less a beefed up iPhone 5s chipset.
... as far as i could wade thru all that technical data.
Man, basically everything leaked today....
What is this new chip going to do for 3G power consumption vs the current iPhone 5S technology?
I'm not a heavy user of data on my phone so I keep LTE switched off. 3G is perfectly good enough to sync my calendar, contacts and a few other things and support my occasional use of maps, wikipedia, web searches etc.
Will this change anything as far as 3G vs 4G power consumption is concerned perhaps make it more power efficient to use LTE vs 3G due to some sort of big advance in LTE power efficiency?

They didn't use a list of individual parts and actually build anything.
They apparently acquired entire pre-built sections and assembled them, just like the workers at Foxconn would.
Apple chooses the plenty fast LTE chip that be reliably produced in volume and uses less power preserving battery life.
Samsung chooses the slightly faster LTE chip which production volume is questionable (not a problem for Samsung) and hogs even more battery unnecessarily.
Sounds about right.

The fastest LTE download speed I ever came across was 45 Mbps.
No idea where I would encounter a 150 Mbps signal. Right under a tower?
Wow some of you need to be set straight.
That newer Samsung modem is over 20% more power efficient then the older one in the next iPhone.
The galaxy alpha from Samsung is a flagship 20nm soc and only has an 1800mah battery.that is a HUGE batter reduction they did there and the phone is using an 8 core CPU on top.
I really can't believe some people think the older crap is better because apple chosed it over the new gen stuff.what will u say when the 6s has this junk modem that Samsung is already using?
Samsung will sell a few millions of Galaxy Alpha, compared to 100 million of iPhone 6. Hopefully this convinces you why Apple couldn't have gone with a newer, harder to produce modem. Qualcomm would have a very tough time producing that many chips, leading to, you've guessed right, iPhone 6 shortages.
Right because Samsung is not going to sell millions of galaxy alphas and note 4s lol or galaxy s6s...wait was it the reason they kept 1gb ram also?
PS apple will take almost 2 years to sell 100 million iPhone 6s please stop pulling numbers out your ass

Galaxy note 4 and alpha, combined, won't sell as much as iPhone 6 (maybe 25%).
As far as 100 million number being out of my ass...

The second link proves they sold 25+ million units of iPhone 5 in one quarter. ONE QUARTER (2 years ago)
Galaxy S6 won't be out for another 6 months, and by then production will have improved drastically.
My thoughts exactly, at the theoretical max speed, in one second you would download 18.75MB worth of data before you stop loading the page or go back. With a slower connection, you have more of an opportunity to back out and not waste as much data.
Yeah there first 1/4 is strong and then falls off just like ever launch.it will take apple well over a year to sell 100 million phones.
Are you trying to say that Samsung with all its line up don't sell in the millions like apple? The limited modem claim u make has no proof.please provide proof saying there is yeild and production issues with it as Samsung will sell north of 15 million with alpha and note 4 sales in its first 1/4 and they will get the new modem.
Are you saying Samsung has more pull then apple to get modems from Qualcomm?
Nice link from apple insider...can you get any more based lol and that is nothing but pure prediction.
If apple wanted the new modem they would of used it!
Here's a little wake up call...Samsung sells millions of phones just like apple.the note 3 sold over 10 launch and is doing well even to this day.its out selling all other android OEMS and is at 50% of what apple sold and were just talking about the note 3 alone.
I guess Apple's attitude when it comes to the iPhone (both inside and out) is "slow and steady wins the race". Ironically enough, the fact that Samsung is bold enough to charge forward with newer tech is what has people criticizing Apple when it comes to lack of innovation, at least as far as the iPhone is concerned.
