Review: iPhone 5 Tech Armor Anti-Glare & Anti-Fingerprint (Matte) Screen Protector

October 9, 2012 7:46 pm / Albertech.net

The Tech Armor anti-glare protector for the iPhone 5 is a great addition to your new phone purchase. I like the fact that it comes with 3 protectors in case the first install doesn’t work out right. There were bubbles on my first installation of the protector, but the second one was flawless. I initially tried to use the home button as a reference (per instructions) but the camera/speaker works better for alignment. The trick is to make sure the screen is spotless and slowly peel back the adhesive backing as you are installing the protector. At $5.95 on Amazon (free shipping with Prime), its one of the best values for screen protectors.

  • Anti-glare works great in the sunlight. It slightly darkens the screen, but the antiglare feature is worth it.
  • Installation was fairly easy. The tricky part was aligning it with the speaker/camera/home button.
  • $5.95 for a pack of 3.

Review: ifrogz Merge iPhone 5 Case from Target

September 24, 2012 12:09 am / Albertech.net

With the new iPhone 5 and a limited number of cases available, I picked up the Zagg ifrogz Merge case from a Target store yesterday since it was similar to my favorite Speck fitted case on the iPhone 4.

The case has a nice pattern to the back and the beveled edge on the front to help protect the phone against flat surfaces. I also like the button covers for the volume control and the top power button. The fitment is overall very good — there are no noticeable gaps along the edges and the power port. The headphone jack, camera, and microphones are not blocked by the case. The side of the case has decent grip, although I’d prefer a rubber material on the side for better grip.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars. Great value for a $25 case. Available at Target stores.

Fix – Apple iPhone 5 AT&T network unavailable after activation via iTunes

September 22, 2012 11:23 am / Albertech.net

If you are unable to connect to the AT&T network after activating your iPhone 5 via iTunes (e.g. No Network is displayed on top of your phone), here are some tips that could fix the problem:

  1. Manually activate your new phone via the AT&T website https://www.wireless.att.com/activations/.
  2. Verify that the IMEI number  listed matches your new iPhone 5. You can check this by going to Settings on your iPhone 5, then selecting General, and About.
  3. After activating the phone via the website, wait around 5 minutes and restart your iPhone 5.
  4. If this does not work, call the AT&T activation number at: 18003310500. They should be able to help with the activation issue.

iPhone 4S tracking information

October 12, 2011 5:45 pm / Albertech.net

Apple has started sending the tracking information on Monday 10/10/2011 for the iPhone 4S preorders via e-mail. If you ordered early Friday from Apple (before 7am), you should be getting your tracking information shortly.

AT&T is starting to update the status of their iPhone 4S orders from backordered to processed. Verizon and Sprint have sent shipping confirmation notices as well for their Apple iPhone 4S preorders.

I ordered my iPhone 4S at 2am PST on Friday 10/14 and received my tracking information a 2am on Monday. Apple will try to make sure that all preorders will arrive on Friday, October 14. It only takes one day to ship from the Foxconn factory to the USA via Air, so they should be able to make the deadline.

Missed the Pre-order?

You can still try to purchase the iPhone 4S at Sams Club. The iPhone 4S will be available for pre-order at most Sam’s Club locations beginning at 10:00 a.m. on October 11th on a first-come, first-served basis.
