It's worriesome that the only reason this wasn't a bigger issue was the Chinese govt using it to target a minority population that it wants under surveillance. I'm not confident ad networks have sufficient controls if the attacking party wanted to g…

Seriously he probably just wants to take some time and enjoy his well earned millions. 7 years of high pressure work and sucess and most people would be burned out. Money is no concern and I'm sure Apple offered him a sabbatical if he wanted it. As …

It's amusing in a typical DED word salad article he doesn't actually refute the kantar data but makes a wholly different argument about launch week and total sales. Buddy, who are you arguing with?

I think the mistake DED is making in all of his articles recently is the same mistake he complains that others make - namely trying to make both companies fit into the same narrative. Then his points mostly seem to boil down to - if you're not makin…

There's an awful lot of defensiveness - just b/c a competitor does a few things better doesn't suddenly make the overall phone better. Apple should be pressured to improve in areas they're behind the competition: - phone size with a 5.5" screen - A…

I still remember the first time I held an iPhone 5 - it was so light I thought I was holding a dummy display. You could one hand that for hours and barely feel it. The 6 did get heavier, but obviously that tradeoff was worth it for the larger scre…

What struck me as the most interesting were the areas Google is following Apple in "things just working". Now on Tap is a step forward in intelligence and being even more context aware. So queries can be even less directed as it'll understand what…

Exynos SOCs have been underwhelming for years, but the 7420 on 14nm is quite impressive and gives the A8X a decent run in performance. No doubt the A9 will jump back ahead, but give credit where it is due. 2k is unnecessary but if it draws less p…

Having a home page to "hide" a folder is still terribad. The S6 comes with 56 apps total or 56 3rd party apps? The iphone 6 has 40-42 preinstalled apps.

Nice device, but I'm a little unsure how the Air, Pro, and this tier out, especially as it's actually more portable than the Air. Is the Air always going to remain non-Retina and be the "cheapest" option? This is going to be there new mid-range, a…

The camera though - impressive

What exactly is covered under "digital commerce"? Clearly not e-commerce in general since PayPal has a pretty small overall market share (something like 10% I think). So if PayPal has 78% of "digital commerce", I'm guessing it's some reference to mo…
