Personally I think the idea of a fixed tablet makes zero sense for today's consumer. No one wants to get up to go look at a screen. They want to do everything from their phones (or possibly an Apple Watch) since that's realistically those are the on…

This finding was completely expected. It was mentioned elsewhere before. When Apple creates custom silicon, one main reason is for power efficiency because the vast majority of their hardware products are portable (iPhones, iPads, AirPods, Apple Wa…

There are two main reasons why Apple creates their own custom silicon. The first is to have complete control over the design. They include the features that they value and jettison the rest. They aren't stuck with useless transistors or die real es…

tht said: For me, the order of priority for mobile computer internals is: 1) RAM, 2) storage, 3) network, 4) CPU, 5) GPU, 6) NPU. That's great but this article is about a phone. Most people care about the phone's display, cameras, and ba…

It's hard to tell these days with all the kooks on the greater Internet. You never know if someone is just joking or is tragically detached from reality. The latter has been gaining ground in the past ten years. That's why there are smilies and emo…

entropys said: I wonder how long it will be before the 12&13 minis are no longer supported? Probably in a few years, might be excluded from iOS 20. The rumor mill says that any phone that can run iOS 18 will also run iOS 19. We'll know…

Oh, I understand that the home-focused devices Apple ships today aren't capable of Apple Intelligence. But I don't see how a touchscreen panel device with an AI-capable processor is going to be any better than just controlling this from an existing …

The previous comment is correct. A company's board of directors doesn't get involved in tactical decisions and actions concerning the next quarterly earnings release. They exist to think about the long term strategy of the company, where the compan…
