  • 'iPhone 7' may use new 'fan-out' packaging tech to save internal space

    Sounds to me like Apple is keeping the 4.7" screen size. Hopefully increasing the battery and putting in a big camera sensor.

    Holy lord in heaven your sources are so terrible Tallest Skil. Conservative think tanks, an Iranian source, two that wouldn't even load and another journal where they interviewed an insanely small sample of 45 people outside of a clinical setting. 

    I threw up in my mouth a little. Anyone can cite a bunch of crap. Try to cite something of value.

    Exactly right. This photo will be a workhorse. Anyone with a three year old 5s knows how well it still performs and how well the timeless design has held up. There is no other phone around you can say that about.
    And unlike Android, Apple has fully supported their customers with it instead of abandoning them and moving on to the next model and next customer. The last east software iOS 9.3 run fantastic on my 5s with even better battery life than when I first bought it. You cannot say that about any Android device. The quality and longevity is there for all to see.

    "We will put the Nexus 5 through some battery benchmarks to update our review in the light of its upgrade to Marshmallow, but it's already clear that Doze improves its standby time"

    And before we begin a strawman argument about how nobody buys Nexus and android fragmentation, your comment was "you cannot say that about any android device". That's the end of it.

    How is it that these iPad "Pros" are supposed to be laptop replacements? My 8 year old 2008 Macbook Unibody is still far superior to these iPad toys. 2 GHZ 8 GB Ram, a true OS X, I can run Windows and Linux natively, hook it up to my 27" LED Cinema display and have multiple windows open side by side (unlike the two window solution of the iPad pssh) and I can actually use web sites that are too complex for an iPad to handle. The iPad doesn't even have 3D touch contextual menus, much less a robust file system. iPad has a long way to go before I will consider switching out a laptop.

    the iPad is not a laptop replacement for you. But you post off and on on a tech blog, talk about installing other OSes on a machine, something 99.9% of people would never consider. 

    Think about everyone else. It's very possible it works better for different people. Love how tech enthusiasts project their values and knowledge like every other consumer shares the same thing.

    Yeah things reload from memory, but the reality is that 2GB of RAM is still sufficient on an iOS product. I dont really care for the naming scheme, but 98% of users are likely watching Netflix and checking Facebook. Apple has great memory management and only the very tech savvy would care. 

    The great Apple RAM debate needs to stop. Its been going on for years and Apple continues to crush benchmarks and exceed customer expectations with performance.
