5nM/3nM = 1.6 recurring, suggesting a move from the 5nM process to the 3nM process would yield a 67% improvement in speed/power ratio. We are not seeing that. If you delve into the TMSC public documentation on their timelines, we see it is far mor…

Yes I have been driven mad by all the references in almost all the reviews to references to "zoom" when they mean "telephoto" and by the references to focal lengths, e.g. "120mm", "35mm" etc. without stating that these are the 35mm film full-frame e…

I am pleased that there is no consensus on predictions. It shows that Apple have done a better job on their formerly famous secrecy. My prediction is that it is all about the M3 on the 3nM process. That would mean refreshes of the MacBook Air, M…

Apple tends to over-engineer everything. There is more computing power in an Apple USB-C power adapter than powered the first moon landing. Those who study practically any Apple laptop or desktop say they use three to four times the number of screws…

I ordered my Pro Max in the UK 16th September with an ETA 24th November - that is 69 days lead time. It has not changed since I ordered it, i.e if I ordered today the ETA is still 24th November. This implies a large batch was always scheduled for th…

Any suggestions for a simple USB-C 3.2 (alt) 3-way adapter for the iPhone 15 Pro, ideally cable-less? I would like to be able to drive (and power) a portable monitor, connect an external SSD and have PD input at the same time. All suggestions welcom…

What a tale of woe! Hiring, firing, spending, cutbacks, alliances made and broken etc. and for what? To pursue a peculiarly U.S.A. aspect of culture - the automobile. Cars are on their way out, at least privately-owned cars. First and foremost the…

To the EU, USB-C is all about charging interoperability. However Apple has implemented USB 3.2 Alt on the Pro's USB-C connector. This means not only using external storage at 10Gbps (75 GB/min) but also driving an external 4k display at 60Hz AND sim…

This appears the least attractive MacOS (or Mac OS) revision ever. Almost all the new features I don't want and the one I wouldn't mind, CentreStage, has being poorly implemented. The idea of predictive text on my Mac takes my soul away. Apple sho…

It is yet another example, rife across many sectors in society, where 'security' just happens to be in full alignment with 'revenue protection'. Where the 'security' justification for profit can be employed, invariably it will be.

The advice for all rechargeable batteries is to slow-charge to maintain their health. If you absolutely need to fast-charge to suit your life style then just accept that it will involve quickly diminishing battery capacity and the cost of replacing …

Digital photography is finally catching up with old silver halide tech. Dynamic range and resolution have always been a trade-off.

You don't put a phone in a trouser pocket unless you want premature failure. The inside pocket of a jacket is far more suitable and practical. Then, it is poor form to have the phone always with you. Keep it on a charging stand in your office unle…
