One common practice is as follows. iPhones are purchased using stolen credit cards. These phones now need to be laundered. The phone is opened up and air is injected into the battery between the black covering and the battery internals, giving i…

“At present, the display assembly failure rates in the older models excluding de-lamination of the Retina Display coating are approximately the same, and service numbers for the first year of service involving the display of all models are a bit low…

Only in America.

Paid obscene amounts of money to add a bit of fashion to the stores. Still not as bad as John Browett, paid obscene amounts of money to make every retail employees working life a nightmare. I've never worked somewhere, where seeing employees in te…

“A fib” in the UK means “a lie”. The heading really confused me. Np, you're not confused. Since the feature isn't available on UK watches, even though they pay more for the device, A-Fib is a fib.

Wow, that brought back happy memories. We all new the rumours about a phone device, and it didn't disappoint. As an Apple retail employee we each got given a free iPhone and I can still remember walking home, marvelling at how beautiful it was a…

Rather creepy ad. Reminds me of Logan's Run.

The Mac IIfx still feels like the fastest Mac I ever used. Must have been because they came out still running System 6. Later on I was installing Radius Rocket 68040 cards into older Mac IIs as a cheaper alternative to the Quadra line. But they n…

I'm now the happy owner of the new model Air. 13" MBP desperately needs an upgrade to the better keyboard and a touch ID. The screen, trackpad, speakers and i5 on the new Air, are perfectly acceptable for the majority of users. While that extra b…

"..just through its being the cheapest model. There was nothing else that made the MacBook Air superior or more appealing than any other Apple portable" Apart from reliability, the best keyboard, SD card reader, a replaceable battery, magsafe and a…

"This isn't an exhaustive list. The Apple devout surely remember others." Indeed. The Macintosh Plus 240v edition had a capacitor on its power supply board that would pop, but generally the Macs of the 80's and 90's were pretty reliable. But from…

The 3G and 3GS were great phones. But they did suffer from a large crack developing on the back from the middle of the dock and going up. Those models do feel great in the hand. But I did prefer the Leica look of the 4 which also had a nicer scr…

Almost everything that was nice about the 2012 MacBook Pro has now been lost, all in the name of making it as thin as possible and the philosophy of "it just works". Reliable ports and keyboards replaced by dodgy adapters and keys that stick at the…

"Apple tops list of most 'intimate' brands among millennials" Vibrator advantage due to the Taptic Engine?

Nice to know that there will be at least one Apple laptop with a working keyboard and an easily replaced battery.

Probably caused by Google and the Modem firmware, fighting over who gets to spy on you.
