Updating to iOS 10 is bricking some iPhones and iPads

“The most compelling improvement on the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus is the sharp speed increase”. He was able to successfully install iOS 10 when he connected his iPhone to iTunes to complete it there. Well, possibly yes, but this will also depend much on what Samsung will opt for instead of the 3.5mm headphone jack.

Apple iPhone 7 and 7 Plus are all set to be available in India on Octover 7, 2016.

It’s that time of year again: iPhone madness, as Apple’s new iPhone goes on sale.

In fact, T-Mobile CEO John Legere said that pre-orders for the latest iPhone have stacked up to four times the amount managed for the iPhone 6 last September.

Although iOS 10 has received good reviews from the tech press for its completely revamped messaging system, visual design tweaks and other features, the bricking issue will likely cause many users to wait before updating to the new system. The starting price of the iPhone 7 in India will be Rs 60,000 for the 32GB storage version. Also on Tuesday, Sprint Corporation (NYSE:S) reported that pre-orders of the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus were up more than 375% in the first three days compared to previous year.

It is worth mentioning that a free adapter will come with every iPhone 7. The first pre-orders in launch countries are scheduled to begin this Friday, but before that, rumours of the next year’s iPhone are already coming in.

We’ve had mixed results here at Macworld: Caitlin McGarry updated her iPhone 6 via Wi-Fi without a problem, where Roman Loyola’s iPhone 6s Plus crashed during the over-the-air install. Key Apple analysts earlier predicted Apple preparing a radically redesigned smartphone for next year, when iPhone turns a decade old gadget.

According to UberGizmo, the new Galaxy S8 might also ditch the 3.5mm jack and move on with a new headphone jack, just like what Apple did.
