    I was hoping they would make a decent looking round watch but disappointed with this still ugly design. I got a lot of apple devices which I use daily but the watch can't stand it. Given how it looks and what it does, EKG and health, was probably designed for an elderly audience. 
    Wow. Just wow. And FYI, the Apple Watch has already been credited with saving a couple of teenager's lives by detecting fast heartbeats. 
    Apparently only elderly people have health issues and a heart.

    My Verizon iPhone Xs Max order shipped on Monday. It's actually here now at FedEx as of this morning. My Series 4 isn't supposed to deliver until sometime next week.

  • Hands on: Google Maps in CarPlay fights Apple Maps for your dashboard

    I used Google Maps all day yesterday and this morning as well. I will stick to using Apple Maps. The one I'm looking forward to is Sygic with CarPlay. That should be released any day now hopefully.

  • Google Maps becomes first third-party navigation app with Apple CarPlay support

    boltsfan17boltsfan17
    For me personally, I think Apple Maps look so much better compared to Google Maps. On Apple Maps, all the houses and buildings are in 3D in my area and that looks way more aesthetically pleasing on the eye compared to Google Maps. One big pet peeve of mine on Google Maps is the lack of labeling on bodies of water. While trying out Google Maps in CarPlay this afternoon, I drove over a river and next to a lake. Neither were labeled. On Apple Maps, they are. There is a setting to show speed limits, but so far, I haven't seen any while use Google Maps in CarPlay. Apple Maps shows speed limits on all the roads where I live.

    I just checked the Apple Store app. It says I can pick up a gold 512 GB XS Max at my local Apple store on Sept 21 if I order it now. That’s really odd seeing how whenever I pre ordered iPhones in the past, if I didn’t order right at midnight on pre sale day, I’d be waiting about a month.
    None of the Apple Stores in my area have any of the 512 GB Xs Max available for pick up on Sept 21. There are a lot of Apple Stores in my area. 
    I guess availability is spotty. No matter what, I’m sure these phones will be a huge hit, as always. I gotta say though, that new gold color is gorgeous. 
    Only with a crystal clear case will the beauty of the gold iPhone shine through.
    The problem with clear cases is they always end up turning yellow. I have yet to find one that doesn't do that.
