My only concern is the inclusion of Qualcomm modems and hopefully better antenna design. I had to turn on a Samsung phone because where I live, the iPhone 11 Pro Max either drops calls or the reception is so bad nobody can hear me. Even with WiFi ca…

This is one of the areas where Apple may find some risk. This is a news platform. There is no real reason this should not be available on Android or Windows platforms. Tying services revenue to your own hardware still puts some limits on your abilit…

I personally believe Apple did this just to show the impact if this happens again. Both companies need each other too much to let this spiral out of control. Like it or not, many people would get rid of their iOS devices if the Facebook nonsense was…

I would have been more interested in LTE and Wifi comments. Both are atrocious on my XS Max. I have a full mesh system in my house and the XS Max drops like crazy. Everything else is fine. LTE is borderline useless in many places as well while my wo…

I wonder if this addresses the poor Wifi and LTE I have been experiencing. I used SpeedTest last night in my house against a generic Motorola phone I use for music on the treadmill and the Moto blew the XS Max out of the water on Wifi. The phone is …

I have the same iMac and I have had issues with the Dell 4k monitors I added to it. They lose the display signal over the TB3/DisplayPort connection every now and then and I need to safe boot the iMac to get the monitors back some times. It is just …

Gotta love these analysts with a $200 target. Stock is trading around $199 this morning. Brilliant!

I have played with Android Wear and the TizenOS stuff with the round faces. The Apple face as it currently is I have found to be far superior for reading text. Of course, with Apple's focus on end user experience I would tend to believe they would o…

The other issue with Apple doing this is the ability to get refunds. Whereas Google Play has allowed refunds within a quick time period, the App Store does not. So if you download a crumby watch face you will be out the money. The challenge I saw wi…

I have played with Android Wear and the Samsung Tizen stuff. Apps like WatchMaker and Facer have a mix of cool original designs, stupid photos with hands, and trademark infringement faces from Rolex and others. It is tough to regulate for sure. Howe…

I bought one for my wife in the kitchen. The sound quality is fantastic. Yes it is restricted to Apple's ecosystem. Yes Siri is behind Google in terms of overall AI smarts. However, my wife did not want a device she could ask random questions of. Sh…

I use a Note 8 for work to keep a foot in the Android world. The iris scanning requires you to pick the phone up and actually stare at it. The pure facial recognition doesn’t work consistently. Apple crushed Samsung on this front with the iPhone X. …

Have this phone for a week. Need to decide if I am keeping it. FaceID is a pain in the rear. Most apps are not optimized for the notch so they are condensed. I realize app optimization will take time but $1200 with tax for this type of experience ha…

So I can't comment whether these rumors are true or not, but if they are I assume Apple is not surprised at this. The technology is so far more advanced than traditional facial recognition that they had to know it would be a challenge. I assume they…

If they change the watch so the bands don't fit it will be a tough pill to swallow. I have the Apple link bracelet and several other Apple and premium third party bands. Would be very disappointing. However Tim and company are smart and know people …

Wow, a 5.15 inch screen. Talk about a downgrade.
