Innovations for the Iphone

    The iphone or the Apple products as whole, Mac, iPad, iPod, iTunes and other of their trademarks  not mentioned are often produced with business innovations to their designs. Almost all of them starts with "i", could be the reason their prices are on the "High side". Even maintenance is expensive more reason why it is mostly out of the reach of the masses. Anyway, thank God for Andriod and other China phones with good innovations too. 
Nevertheless, I saw this innovative improvements on the mophies' and think it is worth sharing. your opinion after perusal maybe different.

2007
juice pack
World’s first battery case.
The juice pack that started it all. The original battery that you could use on-the- go, and the first external battery ever for iPhone.

2009
juice pack air
World’s first fully protective battery case.
We took the concept of the original juice pack and went a step further by turning it into the world’s first fully-protective battery case, with enough battery to double your talk time.

2010
juice pack TV
World’s first battery case with streaming TV.
Thought we only made batteries? In collaboration with Qualcomm, mophie developed the juice pack TV that for the first time, offered live broadcast TV straight to your iPhone. Using the FLOTV network, mobile users could catch broadcast TV nation-wide.

2010
marketplace
World’s first mobile credit card reader.
The marketplace was able to accept credit cards anywhere your business took you. With full DUKPT encryption and banking partners such as Intuit, marketplace was an early innovator within the mobile payments category.

2011
pulse
World’s first gaming case for iPod touch.
With front-facing stereo speakers and next-gen haptic feedback, the pulse was the world’s first iPod gaming case that offered physical rumble feedback for any game in the App Store. mophie partnered with Artificial Muscle to develop the pulse, which contained a reflexive membrane for powerful high-definition haptics, adding a new dimension to mobile gaming.

2012
juice pack helium
World’s first battery case for iPhone 5.
The thinnest battery case of its time, the juice pack helium was the first protective battery case on the market for the iPhone 5 and was mophie’s 15th battery-case form factor.

2014
space pack
World’s first battery and storage case.
In development for years, space pack finally addressed the growing problem of “not enough storage” on the iPhone for all the pictures, videos and music that fill your life (and fill-up your phone). With 16, 32 and 64GB models.

Disruptions in mobile phones manufacturing

“We need to be able to make a chipset to stand out as someone who was really innovative,” ,  John Chan (don't know if he is a brother to Jackie Chan). Business as well as life itself is a risk and only those who plunged into the risky terrains mostly at times come out as a leader in innovation with an edge over others. Mobile phones market has mostly been dominated by big brands like Apple, Samsung, Microsoft (Nokia), Huawei and the likes. At times, the geographical location determines which brand leads where but we all know for now who leads who. The issue has been disruption in giving the end user what they actually think they want. Putting the power in their palms and helping them toy with it in terms of mobile phones, accessories and mobile apps for different applications to make life easier. All these leads to Internet of Things and innovative smart homes. I think one day, we will be able to change the colour of our bed sheet with a click of the phone and adjust the th...

Open Source Software

  If you’ve spent any lengthy amount of time on the Internet, you’ve probably heard of open source software but might not have fully understood what it is and why it even exists.   This article will describe this recent phenomenon and describe some of its benefits for the software using community. In a nutshell, open source software is software made by everyone – for everyone. The hope behind its development is that through its open access, it will evolve into something that represents the true desires of computer users. Through a wide network of user involvement, the software in question is enhanced and debugged without costs or administrative policies. Traditionally, software is developed behind closed doors. A team of professional coders build it but the community at large isn’t part of its conception. It’s costly to produce and as you can probably guess, that cost is passed on to the end user: the consumer. Open source software on the other hand is free. Free ...

Understanding Operating Systems Every new computer that’s brought home from the store has an operating system installed onto it. But what most new computer users don’t realize, is that without an operating system, that computer would be a simple shell of possibilities. A powered computer lacking an operating system wouldn’t display anything more than a bunch of confusing text messages that descri be the computer’s boot process. At the very end of this process, the computer looks for an operating system and if not found, it will prompt the user to tell it where it is. Earlier computers didn’t have an operating system and if you have experience with the computers of the early eighties, you’ll remember that most to them didn’t even have a hard drive! These old computers booted an MS-DOS type operating system from drivers stored onto a floppy disk, and in order to use a program, users would remove the boot floppy and then insert a new floppy that contained the program. T...
