  • Qualcomm's M2-beating chip probably won't arrive until after M3 drops

    So where did he promise their chip will “beat” the M2?

  • M3 Max chips being tested for future MacBook Pro models

    With 14900K being merely 200MHz faster, and AMD just released their X3D variant.  If the M3 Max comes with the A17 architecture, it could very well be on-par or even better than both of these.

    architectural advantage speaks volume.

  • iPhone 11 Pro & iPhone 11 Pro Max -- Hands on and first impressions

    That camera design is absolutely atrocious... Apple design really going downhill :neutral: 
    Apple has been accused of form over function for a very long time and in some instances I agreed. But they’ve turned around by balancing that a bit more. Think the new Mac Pro - which is back to more function versus an overly fixation on design with the ‘wine bottle cooler generation’ that in the end pros didn’t want.

    The same is visible in the iPhone. The phone cameras has become a primary reason to buy or skip a phone. It is a camera I take 90% of my photos with, despite a DLSR that I have with 5 professional lenses. 
    Function over form is completely justified. People were complaining about the bump Apple introduced years ago, but I don’t expect that same mass critique in 2019 at all. The alternative would be to lose out to Android systems and to offer a subpar photo taking quality / experience. These are the laws of physics. A bump is needed and lenses need to be exposed. What is the alternative, really?
    You don't just think that Functions only means performance?  I'll say that the Mac Pro is a special case -- they haven't done anything for five or six years.
