I connected my AirPods 4 to my MBA via cable and they were updated in less than two minutes, probably less. I've done this since it was first mentioned at AI many years ago. It's worked very quickly every time, but this is by far the quickest I've s…

I thought Silent Mode silences everything but alarms and haptics. Even Do Not Disturb doesn't silence alarms. If set they go off and you have to silence them. So maybe this toggle does let you prevent alarms from sounding? That would seem to actuall…

The main reason I'd want a folding phone is for slightly more real estate but larger icons and text via selectable resolution or scaling, but not just via an Accessibility menu. I realize that's not what most people want with a folder. I have an iP…

It looks like it should ship with a ball gag. So I've heard. If it works for someone that's all that matters. I've yet to buy an AVP but I really want one. I'll probably try the dual headband first. This thing just seems too involved. Maybe just att…

the lack of progress on Siri has not been a good look for Apple over the last year.The last year? How about the last decade. About the only thing Siri has consistently been good at is setting a timer. Most of the time I use Alexa for that, but it f…

An iOSeu restricted to the eu might work but I don't know that Apple could do it without giving up proprietary IP. If so that could be a way to go. I'd like to know how just dropping the EU from their phones and any other Apple products would affect…

starring Pedro Pascal, but you'll be bored long before it's over.You bored me at Pedro Pascal. I've never liked him at all until The Mandalorian and then not after he removed his helmet. I'll watch the spot eventually just to see the look of it whi…

Just no. I had a Pebble before Apple released their Watches didn't like it at all. While I don't wear watches as a fashion statement, I like them to look nice as well as be functional to whatever degree I desire at the moment. So good luck to Pebble…

I'm not particularly concerned about AMAZON or anybody mining my voice commands for fun or profit. Eavesdropping on me for any reason is a concern for me. Given that proviso what really bothers me is echo devices is 99% useless when they lose an int…

There are a number of third party displays that will get the job done but most don't have the build quality of an Apple display. Controlling brightness as day moves to night is a huge consideration for me. The few TP displays I've used don't have th…

I'd like to see Apple make a phone that they can't won't sell to the EU. An FU EU phone. But apparently the EU market is too big for Apple to ignore. Maybe they also fear more scrutiny as blowback. A phone without ports wouldn't cut it for me. I lo…

It's disappointing that anyone would reveal secrets about a product that hasn't shipped yet. I've always enjoyed the conjecture of what the next product will be or what its features are, without any leaks. But those days are gone and it's really imp…

I've used and use a case on all my phones so the bump has never been a problem. Outside of my house or office or when not alone my phone is never face-up. Making the back of the phone the same thickness as the rest of the bump would use more metal …
