It’s not just related to security. Authorizing parts also helps to destroy the market for stolen phones. Because they can be authorized, thieves take them apart to sell off parts. If the stolen parts can’t be used, it erases a major motive for steal…

The T2 chip includes Apple’s hardware accelerated video encoder for video. If Netflix were to “just use Chrome” it could perhaps “do” 4K video in software but it would be lower quality and cause a major implosion of battery life while the fans ran a…

dedgecko said: Isn’t the iPhone OLED displays already a foldable screen? And this would be a future iPhone prototype. Once those pass muster, then their may be a future iPhone model. Semantics one may argue, but this is how Apple’s desi…

pontavignon said: Does this recently-announced Android ability to measure AR depth with a single camera and no other tech signal that superior software enablements are allowing them to catch up to Apple in the field without resorting to more…

ihatescreennames said: AppleInsider said: So, we’re 3 years into ARKit. Developers have had all that time to give us “experiences that large number of real-world users can experience”, but where are they? I fully believe Apple is …

jdb8167 said: This makes it pretty clear that the developer transition kit isn't a Mac mini outfitted with an Apple Silicon SoC, but rather an iPad Pro logic board hooked up to multiple USB ports, Ethernet, and HDMI for convenience. It sport…

MplsP said: In another thread people were discussing the significance of the absence of thunderbolt On the developer Mac mini. My initial assumption was that Apple surely would be including it since leaving it off would be too big of a compro…

mretondo said: Completely disagree, the ARM chip could have been compared to a Mac mini or whatever Mac they saw fit but they didn’t! They showed FCP and said it’s fast but didn’t even say it’s X times faster than XXX. I’ve been with Apple si…

mretondo said: Apple made it perfectly clear that ARM is slower than Intel. In fact they screamed it out load if you were listening. There wasn’t a single side by side demo of FCP X running on two Macs doing a long task like rendering. Intel…

melgross said: An error in this article. TB doesn’t not come with USB4. It’s optional. It required Intel TB controller chips, and work to get them to function. Having USB4 doesn’t not automatically mean you have TB. I hope Apple will do it. W…

GeorgeBMac said:Sorry, but without an external keyboard and mouse or trackpad the iPad WAS mostly just an output device and not a "real computer" capable of "real work".Fortunately, that is no longer the case -- iPad is wearing big boy pants now…

imat said: Nice and well written article. My wonder is how Apple will manage feature parity. Apple announced Intel models of Mac are in the pipeline, I imagine Mac Pros and some high end configuration of other MacBook Pros for the time bein…

BeDifferent said: How can you expect anyone to take you seriously when you don’t have the slightest clue what you’re talking about? Apple designs their own cores. All they license from ARM is the instruction set. You know nothing, Apple Ins…

mattinoz said: mjtomlin said: These new Macs will still support discrete GPUs. There’s no reason to think they won’t. Would not be at all surprised if the Developer kits have a GPU in them. Given they were supposedly driving the XD…

thedazzler said: Would it be possible (with development) to plug your phone into your Mac to double the processor power similar to how external GPUs work today? Not really, if for no other reason than USB 2.0 would be a really slow backpl…

rob53 said: Good article but you left out how virtualization works and after doing a quick search of Apple's new Developer app, nothing showed up. Nothing for Rosetta either. Doesn't surprise me because it's probably a very proprietary set o…
