The AppleTV became significantly more popular when the 2nd and 3rd generation were reduced to $99. That is the number one request people wanted after being surveyed about the first generation model. Doubling the price by offering the same video so…

I bet if Apple used a standard 3.5mm audio in for the AirPod Max they would play lossless files. But no, Apple had to use Lightning and cripple a pair of $550 headphones. And the people that think AirPod Max can do AirPlay 2...nope, the headphones…

The M1 does have a faster single-core score (by only 450 points), but that's it. As Marvin (the board moderator) pointed out, Apple still sells the higher end and more powerful Intel models. I can't figure out why people are excited about a 16GB m…

It will be funny when people claim they hear a difference in sound quality through their mediocre AirPod/AirPod Max products. Bluetooth is compressed audio through a specific protocol. You are not going to get high quality music through Bluetooth.…

Ridiculous that Apple discontinues the space gray accessories when they sell space gray MacBooks. But they are on sale at Amazon so I picked up a new space Gray keyboard to keep sealed and use as a replacement when my existing one wears out. Not a…

The article intentionally leaves out the scores for graphics performance. The M1 performs better than Intel integrated graphics, but it does not perform better than dedicated graphics cards. This has been well documented on various sites with the …

The 24" iMac won't be a big seller. Limited ports, limited storage, limited RAM, and not exactly attractive colors...and that white bezel. Ugh. It is a stop-gap machine. The chip shortage has had a huge impact so Apple decided to use an M1 in an…

The article also left out the fact that if the iPhone is not running iOS 14.5 or later, the 'missing' AirTag won't alert the nearby phone. Not everyone installs the latest updates and some people still have phones that can't run iOS 14. So chalk t…

The white bezels. Why do you think Apple switched to black in 2007? Better on the eyes. Don't compare iPods, iPhones, and the all white iMac G4s and iMac G5s to these pastel colored 24" iMacs with a white bezel. Big difference when the entire co…
