blastdoor said: I’d love to see intel regain the process lead and win apples foundry business. Seriously. Intel have been falling over themselves to screw up. They've relied on the old X86 business to keep themselves going.

For a while I was getting a new iPhone every year through the Apple upgrade program. I skipped that in 2022 and then got a new phone in 2023. The fact is that iPhones don't age that much in performance over a span of 2 years so there isn't much inc…

When I got my M1 MBP at the beginning of 2022, the difference in performance over the previous Intel MBP was startling. Everything was "snappier". Apps open faster with less lag. For me though it is the battery life that is exceptional. There i…

Hopefully this won't mean someone will be able to fake transactions and steal money from me. I've just returned from the UK and I used Apple Pay successfully for nearly every transaction. Still easier to use than in the US.

inkling said: Expected updates as part of iOS 18 include a hearing aid mode feature destined for the AirPods Pro, while AirPods may gain a hearing test function. My hearing isn't great but not so bad that I need the cost and hassles of a stan…

What does Apple do? They watch potential new markets and release a product to solve most of worse aspects of the competition. So there is no doubt that Apple foldable phones will be released. The big question is when. The answer to that is when A…

It's great that TB is going up to the next level. Even better that USB-C will work with the same connection. This is all great for the high end equipment, but basic drives and monitors still are stuck on USB or HDMI/DP (even VGA!!!). It takes yea…

I have to agree that 512GB SSD and 16GB should be the base for MBPs. For MB Air, I think there are customers that would be okay with just 256 SSD and 8 RAM, especially those who do mostly web surfing, zoom and Google docs. The prices for increasing…

"What, an Apple Car. Let me tell you, companies have been making cars for a hundred years. What could Apple bring to the product that they haven't already done? And 120,000 dollars. Who would pay that, especially when there isn't a physical keybo…

If this does become a major issue for a good number of people, the technology will have to adapt. For example, if you want to dim a certain area say 5 x 5 pixels by fifty percent, don't switch off all at the same time 50% of the time. Instead inte…

It is always interesting to see the teardowns but I sometimes cringe that they essentially destroy a brand new piece of equipment to do it. I would never expect to be able to repair an AVP as we can see how complex the setup is. I think the fans…

Unfortunately Apple can't do anything about having to allow 3rd party stores. I for one won't use them. Apple will have to figure out a way to sandbox those apps so they can't mine data from the phone that they don't generate themselves., like pa…

I estimate that >99% of iPhone users do not care about getting apps outside of the App Store. I also estimate that the majority of those are also happy not to have to worry about apps stealing their data or having to deal with viruses etc. The …

If Apple really did sell 180K in 18 minutes, that meant the revenue was around 630 million dollars. That isn't bad for a high end equipment with limited supply.

My biggest issue is that you can only access the account info on an iOS device. What if my phone is stolen? Will that allow someone to pull the savings out immediately if they have unlocked the phone?

Apple did with the AppleCard exactly what they did with the iPhone. They found a single carrier who was willing to agree to Apple's terms to control the experience. It was brilliant for Apple and in the end good for AT&T. The thing with the cr…

I have definitely preferred the experience with the AppleCard vs. the other card I have. The phone app is great. The only downside is not being able to link the data to a financial app. Does it make sense for Apple to take over the whole shebang? …

The form factor for the iMac has bothered me for years now. The chin on the display is unnecessary and apple should be placing the circuit boards behind the screen. Essentially all you should see from the front is the screen with the bezel just bi…

Buying them isn't so easy. TH ecurrent market cap for MASI is 4.3M. Back in April it was 3 times as much. Apple won't want to spend that for a measily O2 sensor. So licensing would be the way to go if the gov't agrees with the ban.

if the chips are available then I would say M3 all the way. if I were in the market for an iMac and saw that M3s were starting to be used, I would probably not buy a M2 version thinking that the M3 may be out in 6 months. But it is interesting t…
