iOS 8 makes kill switch a default option

You know the Activation Lock feature Apple introduced in iOS 7? Now, it’s enabled by default in iOS 8. Activation Lock is Apple’s version of the kill switch. It means you can lock and secure your iPhone remotely if it gets stolen, meaning you turn it into a brick so no one else but you or those who have the password can unlock it. Users are the only one who can enable the kill switch. Mobile carriers, Apple, and law enforcement agencies don’t have access to the system so it guarantees as much security as it can. Of course, you can opt out of this as well. But with smartphone theft pretty rampant, what’s an extra layer of support?

BlackBerry debuts new masculine Porsche Design smartphone

The BlackBerry and Porsche Design collaboration have created some pretty manly, serious business phones in the past. The new P’9983 is no exception to that. It seems to thwart the smooth curves of the current crop of smartphones and goes for angular and somewhat brutish approach. Basically, it looks like it means business. It features the classic BlackBerry QWERTY keyboard, BBM capabilities, BlackBerry Priority Hub, and access to BlackBerry World. And if you’re in it for the bragging rights you get, you also get a unique BBM PIN exclusive for Porsche Design range.

BlackBerry plans on including premium stereo headset, international charging kit (for all those trips we are sure you will go on), polishing cloth, and USB cable with the P’9983. There will also be handcrafted leather backdoors available later on to let you customize your smartphone a bit. It will available at Porsche Design stores and select carriers and retailers starting next month. They haven’t mentioned the price for the device yet but expect to pay a lot for this.
