I think judging a company's spending on R&D as a percentage of revenue is stupid. Extreme example: a smartphone startup is spending 100% of its revenue of $1m. AAPL is spending spending 5% on its revenue of $200b. Who do you think is going to…

You mention the XPS has double the SSD storage - but you didn’t give any information about their relative performances. Not all SSDs are created equal. Personal example: started a new job last year and they gave me a super powerful Lenovo Windows …

I'm not sure what the primary reason is for that category's disappearance, but it probably has something to do with Amazon buying door bell companies. A couple years ago, I discovered a cool company selling completely portable home cameras: Blink. …

Uh, what is the “Convert Format” this article talks about??? When I go to “Surround”, I only get the options “Best Quality Available”, “Dolby Digital 5.1” and “Stereo”. I have tvOS 11.4. And I have exactly the setup - and problem - described: wh…

I read in another article yesterday that this option is just that - an option...as in, you'll be able to turn it off. If so, the title of this article is misleading/incorrect.

I hope Apple chooses NC. Research Triangle has a huge talent pool from both an academic (3 major universities form the "research triangle") and technical perspective (lots of tech companies here - Research Triangle Park, at one point at least, was …

This may be a dumb question, but how does Apple deliver its content en masse? My 3rd-gen Apple TVs have a "Movies" icon and that top-bar (of highlighted movies) that are owned by Apple, but that's about it - I don't see a "TV" option as exists on i…

Apropos add-on lenses: what are some good choices for iPhone X telephoto lenses? I was using a "Moment" telephoto lens on my iPhone 6 before I upgraded. It used a thin metal plate glued onto the back of the phone onto which the lenses could be att…

What I'm really curious about is whether all the new iPhone 8s's (i.e. the LCD models) will have Face ID. I imagine Apple will want to eventually bring that feature to all phones & tablets, but it seems too early to do it in an "s" cycle - espe…

I don't get why people think this is a "hit piece". Everybody already agrees that the HomePod is a marvelous piece of technology, sound-wise. But that fact, right there, is also what limits its appeal. No doubt, Apple will sell a few million unit…

This is one of those things that will just take time. As others have pointed out, one of the things holding back adoption is the uncertainty over whether a terminal at a given store supports it. Initially, I tried to use ApplePay everywhere - but …
