For the first time ever, we just saw Apple launch two new iPhones on the same day. The company has already come forward to announce a total of 9 million new iPhones sold–taking into account both models… Any reasonable member of the media will say it’s far too early to declare either device the victor, but initial findings from analytics firm Localytics indicate the the iPhone 5s is off to a much hotter start that then iPhone 5c.

According to Localytics’ analysis of about 20 million unique iPhone connections, Apple has sold about 3.4 times as many iPhone 5s units as they have iPhone 5c. After reviewing usage of both mobile and web apps during the brief period the two new iPhone models have been available, Localytics offers this takeaway:

“In less than 3 days, the iPhone 5s and 5c combined now represent about 1.36% of the total numbers of all iPhones activated in the U.S. market across the top 4 carriers AT&T, Verizon Wireless, Sprint and T-Mobile. From the data we are seeing, 1.05% of all iPhones in the United States are now iPhone 5S and just 0.31% are iPhone 5c.”

It doesn’t take much digging to get to one possible reason for the domination of the iPhone 5s… Early adopters tend to be the more enthusiastic, and thusly, those who are probably willing to spend a bit more to get Apple’s highest-end handset. Come holiday season of 2013, we expect the iPhone 5c will gain ground on the 5s, though to what degree is impossible to predict.

In addition to moving 9 million new devices on launch weekend alone, Apple has stated that 200 million devices are now running iOS 7–the latest iteration of the operating system driving every iPhone out there. Another analytics firm, Mixpanel, points out that it has only taken days for iOS 7 to surpass iOS 6.

Now we want to hear from you–how are you liking whichever iPhone you picked up over the weekend? Has your perception of iOS 7 changes since going hands on?

Adding fuel to rumors that Apple will introduce a fingerprint scanner to the next generation iPhone, the company has filed a patent for a biometric sensor with an integrally molded bezel and sensor die.

Apple is now evaluating and sampling tiny Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) screens for the so-called “iWatch.” These tests will soon include actual product runs for the rumored wearable technology, according to Macotakara.

OLED technology is significant in that it doesn’t require a backlight. As a result, it is much more battery-friendly versus a liquid crystal display (LCD). These types of screens are also said to be thinner and lighter than LCD displays.

The screens being tested are 1.5-inches, and reportedly sourced from RiTdisplay, a Taiwanese group that specializes in flash memory, LED products, and AMOLED and OLED screens.

Much has been written in recent months about Apple working on an iWatch. However, less is known about when such a product could actually launch to the public.

Assuming that the details of this report are correct, it doesn’t look like Apple will launch an iWatch anytime soon. After all, Cupertino hasn’t even picked out the device’s screen yet. However, assuming that the upcoming iWatch tests at Foxconn prove successful, we could still see the new product by the end of the year.

The iWatch is one of three new products Apple is rumored to be working on. The others are the so-called “iPhone mini,” and “iTV.”

As usual, we’ll keep you updated.

Designer Alex Cornell helps you figure out how to choose the best seat, or at least “how not to get stuck next to someone that sucks,” with this helpful infographic.

One of the most complex social situations you will encounter is the 45 seconds that elapse while deciding where to sit for dinner at a restaurant. Your choice should appear natural, unbiased and haphazard if executed properly. Timing is everything.

These 45 seconds determine how enjoyable your next 2 hours will be. Once the pieces start to fall into place and people take their seats, your choices narrow. People sit, seemingly at random, and if you don’t take the appropriate measures, you’re inevitably stuck at the least interesting end of the table.
