crowley said: That seems like a hell of a lot of data that you're shunting over a wireless connection, and in a situation where any lag will destroy the experience. Colour me sceptical, firstly of the report and then of the system. You mu…

jdgaz said: This is really pretty stupid. 1) Have Siri recognize the voice that is asking information of it. 2) use that voice to determine which device will be used / queried for information 3) Allow multi queries without the repeated "hey S…

tyler82 said: Doesn’t the Group FaceTime bug absolve apple of their claims to be “secure?” Use of the word "absolve" doesn't make sense in this context. Besides - and I didn't think anybody needed to have this explained to them: all sof…

I don’t know why anybody should bother reading these articles - how do we know “Strategy Analytics” didn’t completely make these numbers up? Nowhere even an explanation about how they arrived at these estimates! Apple has never published any numbe…

That looks like one fat phone! Can't see a market for a $2k phone that's twice as fat & heavy all of the time, for the relatively few times you need such a big screen (certainly you don't want to unfold it all the time - takes too much time, re…

Echoing the comment by @Soli about how that (no need for exact placement) was always the intent of the charging pad to begin with, so no surprise there. But looking at the figures describing the two coils that this wireless charging case might have…

What an utterly stup1d and misleading title! There's absolutely zero evidence that Apple will introduce its service at $15/month. The analyst being quoted in the piece specifically said that he's not suggesting Apple will introduce a $15/mo servic…

k2kw said: Ok , how did the author get that the XS is twice as fast as the X? I followed the link to their website and only saw reports comparing coverage between different Cell Networks not data on a Per Device Level? If so how does th…

Oh, come on! That's gotta be trading on insider information! Why would a firm such as Berkshire & a man like Buffett keep accumulating - even in the quarter before - and then sell 5 million shares just days before the earnings miss announceme…

ivanh said: I bought a food scale with Bluetooth connection. It was made in China and the Modern Chef app was also developed by a mainland China company. Once installed, the app goes beyond telling me the weigh of food. It immediately harves…

curtis hannah said: They will release total active iPhone amount rather than quarterly sales count? That is actually a good thing, as analyst can estimate total deactivated iPhones(obviously much lower than newly activated), and then estimate…

Can someone explain to me why any kind of 8k display is needed for AR? [VR I could possibly understand - maybe].

You ask whether existing Airpod owners will find enough new to cause them to spend $160 all over again. I love my Airpods, but after 2+ years of frequent use, the batteries in the pods themselves deplete much more quickly then when they were new. …

cmka~+ said: Interesting analysis. From a consumer point of view I think when apple has been at its best, it has brought a class of product with a level of functionality, reliability, fit, and finish, that couldn't be gotten elsewhere at any…

gatorguy said: 80s_Apple_Guy said: How can Apple be forced to pay for an invalid patent? Samsung had to pay Apple for a patent that was eventually declared invalid IIRC. The law is not what you might expect. If a company is found g…

The article doesn’t mention another great use for those pico controllers - as an additional wall switch! Lutron’s Caseta light switches also can use those pico controllers and the company sells a frame and wall plate with which you can create a tot…

jcato77 said: This is great but why the "Bridge" all my other homekit devices do not require a bridge to work they are all on wifi and work great. I've avoided the Lutron stuff for a while because of the need for this bridge to make their st…

rainmaker said: I’ve been waiting on a product to fill this exact need for me, and even better that I use Lutron HomeKit lightswitches already! When will this be available is all I need to know. Price too, but I’ll buy it pretty much no matte…

Does anyone know enough about HomeKit to be able to authoritatively say that a HomeKit-based camera cannot (unless agreed to by user) send its information to a third party (for advertising/spying/etc.)? I've read that HomeKit - the platform - is a …

davidmalcolm said: I'd heard that Ring has said that they're going to bring HomeKit support and I really hope they do since I bought my dad one for Christmas and we've got a bunch of other Homekit stuff. (Ring stores their video in the cloud …
