Apple products, iPhones and otherwise, are premium products and should come complete with a premium charger and EarPods. What trillion valuation does Apple need to achieve to ‘offset’ the cost anything let alone 5G? Got too many chargers and EarPod…

The consequence of turning Explicit off then on then off then on (as needed) is that your playlists will re-download to replace tracks between clean and explicit versions. i have to do this because I don’t like explicit language in music for myself…

What about brightness and overall visual quality between sapphire and glass? Is one brighter and therefore more visible outdoors in bright sunlight?

Prior to availability of the new Xr/s/sMax, when I on board a new hire who already owns an iPhone, and whose role qualifies for a company-issued/paid iPhone, the employee had to decide if they would: Carry two phones (at least until their private de…

I can't speak for all of the alternatives listed here, but speaking of Outlook for Mac, it is missing the ability to leverage the 'share sheet' until you have setup some kind of email service on Mail.app, and then telling Mail.app to use Outlook as …

Thanks for the summary. A table by Apple Insider would be so very appreciated (since Apple doesn't publish one) that lets you see details such as touchscreen (or not), wireless CarPlay (or wired), and screen size

Any HomePod owners out there that also have a HomeKit door lock or garage door opener? If so have you tried a ‘Hey Siri’ command to open the garage door or unlock the door, either from outside your home (e.g. though a closed or cracked open window,…

I finally decided to go for it and bought 3 things: 1) the MyQ Smart Garage Hub (I have two doors opened by an old but compatible door opener) 2) the MyQ Home Bridge 3) a 2nd MyQ Sensor (I have two doors and the Garage Hub only includes one sensor)…

Do Not Disturb (DND), while generally awesome, is starting to feel a bit inflexible. For example, if you own a Bluetooth-capable Panasonic cordless phone at home (you likely do along with Tommy Bahama loungers if you're a Costco member), that ph…

Hmmm... Will moving to WPA3 on an access point render a hubless, Homekit-compatible device obsolete, unless either a) the less-secure WPA2 is somehow supported in parallel or b) the HomeKit device supports a WPA3 firmware update? While I say HomeKi…

Looking forward to these capabilities. I wish the explicit language setting was separated for music and podcasts. That way you have an option to keep the music clean, for when you're commuting with the family, and still listen to unfiltered podcas…

It appears a line has been drawn on the life cycle of an Apple Watch - roughly 3.5 years (assuming you're a 'day one' adopter), regardless of how little or much you spent on the body and strap options (imagine the $10K+ some spent on the first gener…

Sharing caveats and consequences from my experience setting up, not specifically included in the 2 official articles Apple has posted at https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208532 and https://support.apple.com/en-jo/ht207428. 1. Caveat - not for unde…

That was good and funny ad, sure to make Samsung owners feel confident in their smartphone of choice. The title “Moving On” is also very appropriate since, had she upgraded to the latest iPhone instead of a Samsung, it would have been titled “Movin…

Just consider what 10nm means for a moment. That’s the width of approximately 20 silicon ATOMs! Astounding...

My favorite quote comes at the end, re: accountability with suppliers. "Our philosophy is our money doesn't break after we give it to them so their parts shouldn't break after they give them to us."
