A year ago, Samsung phones were catching on fire. This year, they’re surreptitiously sending the user’s photo to friends. At least they’re tapering off.

Let’s review: First, computational photography (iPhone 7, 2016). Next, computational audio (HomePod, January 2018). Upcoming in September 2018, “computational electrons” that go where they are pointed (AirPower). When one is working at the front…

Because it has no source, this story qualifies as a guess and/or as a wish, not as a rumor. I’m not sure how important colors are on devices enveloped in cases. But if color does matter, I believe the back should be a low-powered LED screen that ca…

By now, this is an old story. Every year, manufacturers of Windows computers hope to overcome deficiencies in their operating system with incremental hardware updates. After 30+ years of experience with Macs, I’m happy that I didn’t accept that tr…

“Apple stores will begin offering the product in June.” That is not as good as a product review, but it is an endorsement of a sort. The company’s products are reviewed favorably, for the most part, on Amazon.

Component costs go down every year for commodity parts such as display screens and memory. Therefore older iPhone models (such as SE, 7 and 7+) are less costly to produce with each passing year. This article simply says that the same will happen to …

I love Texture and think the acquisition was a good move for Apple. The app for Apple’s new Texture magazine service should also allow magazine articles to be READ ALOUD by Siri — essentially by upgrading the reading service available in Accessibili…

When mistakes by the “robot” behind the wheel become infrequent and most problems can be addressed semi-automatically by pulling the vehicle to the curb, then remote operators are the way to go. That will especially be true when G5 mobile phone ser…

The core of the earth is made of cobalt. It is not rare, but remote.

At 1:56, I notice about 8 flat-top canvas tents with chairs set up for presentations and meetings. About half of the tents are outside the ring, the other half inside it. It looks like seating for about 25-30 under each tent. There also appears to…

Aside from the revenue itself, this report also reveals the huge and fast-growing commitment among well-heeled consumers to the Apple ecosystem. This highlights the value and durability of Apple’s franchise in a way that one-quarter product sales d…

Using this technology, eyebrow movements and other facial gestures could potentially be used by iPhone X (Siri) as a secret code to signal distress or even to select menu items. In more critical situations complex, unusual gestures would reduce the…

Russia should be disconnected from the World Wide Web unless and until technology can be developed to catch its government-supported cyber-criminals. One of these days, Putin’s agents will find a way to neutralize our nuclear deterrent, and he will…
