Rogue01 said: The Toyota Supra is actually a re-branded BMW Z4. The engine and all electronics are made by BMW. Wireless charging is kind of ridiculous in a car. Go over a bump and the phone moves slightly and no more wireless charging. I…

Siri-HomeKit has been a dumpster fire for our family since inception. Since iOS 17, our Siri capable devices are erroneously waking more often than ever before, even though we've not removed the requirement for "Hey". I can issue a command in the ki…

I don't see how Apple's 30% would apply to Tesla's $10/mo. Tesla charges that fee through their own payment system, for a service that runs independently of Apple. That's entirely as it should be. Amazon doesn't give Apple a slice of Prime membershi…

dion said: Do current iPhones really need cases? I am caseless since the iPhone X and never had any issues. All scratches are so flat that they are only noticeable when you hold your iPhone directly beneath a light - but you can't notice them…

Apple's efforts are all about abrasion resistance. That's not at all the same as impact resistance. Cases will still be desirable.

Some repairs might require testing afterwards to ensure that regulatory requirements continue to be met. That's not a DIY job. I went through this discussion with hospital repair staff regarding defibrillators and patient monitors. Some repairs requ…

JP234 said: Wondering what the terminal velocity of an iPhone is? Guessing that a fall from 20-25 feet might generate the same impact force as falling from 14,000 feet. This isn't the first iPhone to fall from a plane. You are not the firs…

AppleInsider said: It won't be easy, though, as a September report estimated that it would take Apple approximately eight years to move as little as 10% of its production away from China. That claim is severely at odds with the claim that …

AppleInsider said: Connecting the Stanmore III to a U-Turn turntable yielded great results. I'm not sure what they are, but I think I want one of those U-Turn turntables.

I also have zero interest in goggled VR and considerable interest in eyeglassed AR.
