Apple to launch iPhone 9 Plus along with iPhone 9 with A13 bionic chipset


Apple expected to launch two budget iPhones soon

iPhone 9 expected design

As we all know that Cupertino based company Apple is working on budget iPhone 9 (successor of iPhone SE) for 2020. Now it has emerged that there wouldn't be single budget iPhone to be released in 2020. According to 9to5Mac website, Apple is also working on iPhone 9 Plus too.

Although corona virus outbreak delayed the iPhone 9 release but this doesn't stopped the company to work on new hardware. Both iPhone 9 and iPhone 9 Plus seems to come with A13 bionic chipset which is present in iPhone 11 series  and may have physical home button supporting old Touch Id feature.  As we know that Apple discontinued home button after iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus but now again company is in mood to replace much more expensive Face Id feature with Touch Id in order to decrease its cost.

It is not incorrect to believe that both these iPhones will be the replacement of iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 plus which was launched in year 2017. iPhone 9 and iPhone 9 Plus may come with the LCD screen size of 4.7 and 5.5 inch respectively. iPhone 9 series is expected to have NFC reader which is supported on devices release from last year onwards and also be able to use Apple pay.

Both iPhone 9 and iPhone 9 plus will definitely help the company to compete in entry level premium segment which is mostly dominated by its Android counterparts. After its release, it will be best time for old iPhone users to upgrade their smartphone with the latest one without spending much money.

Now coming to most important question its pricing. Till now, we haven't heard anything about what the iPhone 9 Plus could cost but iPhone 9 is expected to launch at a price tag of 399$.

How to communicate between React Native and Swift using Bridging

In this article we will learn how can we achieve communication between React Native and Swift code. As we know React Native (RN) is great for building cross platform apps, but during development of react native app we might come across a situation where we need to call native code written in swift. This is where bridge module comes in, which allows us to communicate with the native layer of the application. If we are developing app in React Native for iOS and Android platform then we need to create a bridge for each platform. In this article we will discuss creation of React Native Bridge for iOS only. So Let’s start To better understand the concept we will create sample DemoApp in react native using react native CLI. Below are the commands to setup new project in react native. ·       react-native init DemoApp ·       cd DemoApp ·       react-native run-ios On running the app on iOS s...

SOLID Design Principles in Swift

What are solid principles in programming world? 5 SOLID design principles in swift SOLID is acronym used in software programming for making software design more understandable, flexible, scalable and maintainable.  Every Software Developer must be aware of 5 SOLID principles in order to deliver good quality code SOLID stands for what? S -  Single Responsibility principle O - Open Closed Principle L - Liskov substitution Principle I - Interface segregation Principle D - Dependency Inversion Principle If we apply 5 SOLID principles while creating iOS/Mac Apps then the benefits which we will get are as follow: ·       We will have flexible code which can be changed easily. ·       Software code becomes more reusable. ·       Software developed will be robust, scalable and stable. ·       Code is loosely couple which means dependency between the...

Lifecycle of React Native Component [2020 Edition]

What are the life cycle methods of React Native Component? A component's life cycle in React Native can be divided into 4 phases: React Native Component life cycle phases Mounting:  In this phase,  component instance is created and inserted into the DOM. Updating: In updating phase, a react component is said to be born and it start growing by receiving new updates. Unmounting: In this phase, a react component gets removed from actual DOM. Error Handling: It is called when any error occurs while rendering the component. Now let's discuss about different methods that gets called during these phases. Mounting phase Below are the methods which gets called when instance of component is created and inserted into the DOM. Constructor() static getDerivedStateFromProps() render() ComponentDidMount() Constructor() constructor ( props ) { super ( props ) ; this . state = { employeeId : 0 } ; } It is first method which gets called in the ...
