As a former Android user, iOS 18 updates and the relaxing of rules around emulators have resolved basically all of my major complaints about iOS. I am really looking forward to this update and reclaiming a simple home screen layout. I switched my …

I have passed down multiple iPads to my parents/brother, both are still in use. I'm currently on the newest mini, but hoping we get an updated mini with M2(or mini pro with M4), just to be able to dock it and use it for productivity. I already do …

So apparently the author doesn't see the value in third party validation and that we should just always trust what a company says... While not scientific, Zach from JerryRigEverything normally does a good of validating screen hardness, testing mate…

As someone who has used VR devices for years at this point, starting with the original PSVR to devices with full body tracking and even purchased the new PSVR, I still find my best use case is shorter, interactive games. You will not want to work a…

I don't think gaming is anyone's primary(or even secondary) reason for buying a Mac. However, with the M1/M2 chips, I feel like this is where not supporting Vulkan/OpenGL is a lost opportunity. Proton utilizing direct 3d to Vulkan conversion is en…

I think people are missing the point of a "Hot Take". A hot take sets out to be "deliberatively provocative or sensational". IE, the whole thing is to get fanboys arguing one way or the other, which apparently mission accomplished...

I think one of the dealers nailed it on the head, if your going to do this it has to be better than Carplay. I have 0 faith that GM is capable of that. Volvo added Carplay to the Android Automotive OS they are using in new cars(which is already a …

Not in any large percentages. For the truly high end enthusiast, they are not going to want to stream content at lower bitrates. They may be 4k screens per eye, but the area the TV will be taking up won't be 4K. For audiophiles, they aren't goin…

What I want to know is how much the 4k screens and pixel layout reduces the screen door effect. I'm currently using the PSVR 2, which has 2K screens for each eye, and does foveated rendering like the Vision Pro will. The screen door effect is much…

Not really applicable to this post, but if your workplace allows you to authenticate your office365 work account on personal devices, Onenote for ipad is an absolute godsend for meetings that require any diagraming/note taking. That and teams calls…

I am assuming anyone into this feature is already going to have a really nice set of open back headphones and a quiet room to listen to them in. I personally can't tell the difference past a certain bitrate, I have listened to lossless on a mid-hig…

I have been a subscriber since Youtube TV started at $35 and it was an amazing value proposition, with my use case being for live sports. As they continue to add more channels I don't care about and increase prices, I am looking seriously at altern…

thadec said: No, AMD's competition is not Intel because they can't beat Intel at raw power, which is what the x86 people care about. So, AMD is attempting to go after Apple fans by proclaiming great power per watt. AMD is not going to convi…

MicroLED isn't some magic technology. Its main advantages have always been higher brightness and no(far less) risk of degradation over time. On the flip side, OLED is a pretty mature technology. MicroLED offered more accurate colors originally, d…
