tokyojimu said: I like the way Lightning cables snap into place. USB-C is inferior. Agreed. I like the simplicity of one connector for all, but I have a few devices with rather loose USB C sockets, and I've not owned a single lightning po…

The M1 Max MacBook Pro is a lot of power in a tiny package compared to the Intel Mac Pro. I'm chomping at the bit for the M1 Max Mac mini as that will be enough horsepower for me vs. cost. I expect the Apple Silicon Mac Pros to be absolute beasts in…

pulseimages said: I was excited until I read the Touch ID doesn’t work on Intel Macs. Same. I use my 2019 15" i9 in clamshell mode, and was looking forward to at least being able to unlock with Touch ID.

h4y3s said: These machines will be bonkers. A 16” with mini LED and 64GB unified RAM. A Beast indeed. Agreed. This is the machine I'd normally be looking at to replace my 15" 2019 i9 MBP ($4700.00 CDN). This time around however, I fear th…

Based on what they experienced, I am curious to know if any of those musicians would be willing to pony up $549 ($779 CDN) for a pair.

This is very likely a matter of the dock not being able to meet the criteria necessary for a TB4 licence, or even just a licensing fee issue. I’d rather have a TB4 dock myself, if I was in the market.

My only peeve with my Nomad basestation Apple Watch edition is pushing my phone around to find the sweet spot when I'm also charging my Watch and AirPods. Looks like this will solve that issue for me. This design is perfect on my bedside table. I ha…

Soli said: Why is LEDs on the front a con? I'd think this is something many users would like to have. Not a problem in the daytime or home office, but they stare you right in the face at night if you have one on your bedside table. I have …

chaicka said: Hmmm.....Don’t they resemble Nomad ones? My Nomad Basestation Apple Watch edition has a much more premium look and feel. I has a nice leather pad over 3 charging coils, allowing for Air Pods & iPhone, or iPhone across the…

I just ordered a Nomad base station. Will pick it up from Best Buy tomorrow when running errands. My SS s2 Apple Watch, iPhone X and s1 AirPods with the new wireless case (water damage on the orig) will have a new home on my night stand, devoid of t…

I love my LG LG 34UM95 and it's TWO tb2 ports. I have a 2016 MBP and might be interested in upgrading, bu the single TB3 port is a dealbreaker even though running at 4.5K may not leave a huge amount of bandwidth available on the MBP controller chip …

M68000 said: Let's just hope this USB-C connector can stand the test of time - how durable it is. A USB-A or B connector seems to be so sturdy by comparison, maybe I am imagining it, not sure.. I am very careful when using the cables and co…

I currently have 5 Hue colour bulbs and two light strips. I enjoy what I can do with them mood wise, but abhor the idea of paying for a fixture that essentially lasts as long as the life of the bulb. Not too much of a hit with this kit, but some of …

hypoluxa said: This is a nice update. Glad they were able to get it up to 32GB in RAM. Long overdue. I am looking at the 15" 2.6GHz model to possibly replace my 2012 MBPro 2.6GHz (9,1) non retina. Just have to get a hub for it with all my …

Pitiful number of additional ports for $299. I went with the OWC Thunderbolt3 dock. It only provides 65W, but that's enough to keep my 15" 2016 MBP going for the workday.

I bought one a year ago and love it. I'm glad they now offer Apple Watch integration as it makes using the turn signals effortless compared to having to use the switch. Glad that I could just update the firmware on my helmet through the app to gain …
