Really the “why” is pretty obvious - the EU ruling about a common charging standard. It means Apple have to adopt USB-C *unless* there’s another common charging standard they can apply. Enter QI2, a common charging standard that’s effectively alre…

Realistically this is by far the best watch and the best value for most people; really quite generous by Apple standards. The only annoyance for me is the USB-C cable. It has no practical advantage for this model (no fast charging) and just means …

“ After furious rumors and leaks for the last week, Apple has launched the new Apple Watch Pro” No they didn’t

I get the motherboard, it’s a real and genuinely rare piece of history you can actually look at that and possibly even use. Paying a premium for a sealed box makes no sense to me at all. Until you open it, it’s just a cardboard box which might not…

auxio said: docwallaby said: Correct me if my memory is wrong, but wasn’t the S7 a negligible update over the S6? And wasn’t the S5 almost the same as the S4? Apple hasn’t exactly made all that much progress with the S-series System-in…

So basically the prediction here is that iOS 16 will exist. Amazing.

Those shocked that an entirely optional subscription service could be expected to comply with this code should know that in the UK (like most places) we’ve had optional subscription broadcast tv over cable and satellite for decades, and for all that…

This article is really far too kind, it was high time for the Series 3 to be retired at least a couple of years ago. Certainly when it became impossible to perform a software update without going through all the pain of unpairing etc, the user expe…

macbootx said: Has Apple given this young engineer a job offer yet? Call me crazy but I think Apple’s own engineers may already know how to add USB-C to the iPhone.

I get that this would have been an interesting project for the guy who made it, and I also understand that $86k isn’t a lot to everybody, but I still struggle to see why anyone would pay anything for this. I mean even as a bit of a geek I’m thinkin…

I sort of enjoyed this film for the most part but the more I reflect on it, the more I really hate it tbh. **Spoilers ahead!** 1. I imagined to begin with that the film was set after some climate emergency had finally finished off most of humanity…

The thing is, all Apple are doing is continually improving their product. That doesn’t and shouldn’t mean completely reinventing it every year, and it absolutely doesn’t mean that anyone must or should upgrade every year. If the improvements in on…
