  • Should you upgrade to Apple's redesigned 2018 iPad Pro?

    I agree that these are very expensive (though I ordered a new 12.9). 

    It’s not an excuse or an accurate comparison, but I’ve been buying Apple products since 1988 and remember paying THOUSANDS for things like PowerBooks that had a fraction of the power or elegance of the current offerings, including these amazing iPads.

  • Apple FineWoven case review: Not the leather replacement we were hoping for

    The article feels overblown and full of opinions about the case ‘likely’ failing in the future. Based on what data other than your opinion? Super negative articles get a lot more clicks I suppose. To be carbon neutral we need to move away from leather. I got the Evergreen fine woven case and MagSafe wallet with my iPhone 15 Pro Max a few days ago. I like it. A lot. It feels modern, high quality, durable, soft and comfortable to hold, with nice color matched aluminum buttons on the side. Just because it uses some high quality textured plastic in places it’s automatically cheap feeling? Actually no it’s not - it feels good and solid in hand.  I had an Apple leather case on my previous iPhone - the 14 Pro Max - and I actually prefer the feeling of finewoven - soft and cool rather than hot and sticky. I don't understand what all the whining is about. Very happy with my new iPhone 15 Pro Max and finewoven case. 
    Well said. I got the Pacific Blue of the case and wallet. They feel fantastic. Of course time will tell with wear but it seems this has been really overblown and is very subjective by reviewers.
