  • Rumor: 6.5-inch OLED iPhone roughly same size as iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 12 supports horizontal...

    iPhone could be 0.2mm thicker than the existing handset

    That's a deal breaker.
    Really?
    I assumed the /s tag was superfluous, my bad.

    Lenses will end up going like razors...

    "There is also the possibility of it being used for range-finding..."

    Unlikely, as they couldn't be far enough apart. Your eyes don't simply see 3d because of their distance apart there are other trick calculations your brain does, for example working out the angle that the eyeballs have to converge to both point at the same object. However I always thought it would be cool to have two lenses on opposite sides of the long side of the camera to take the photo from two angles to produce proper stereo photos to be placed in a specially designed stereoscope much like the stereo slide viewers of the 50's which even today look great.

  • Watch: Apple's iPhone reigned supreme in Q1

    A sure fire way to tell which of two types of cannabis is the best. You place a bowl of each in a room of pot smokers and whichever bowl empties first is the best. That is basically why Apple stuff is not the failure it's made out to be; in the final analysis we have a handful of analysts and tech reporters looking for clickbait on one hand and on the other we have tens of millions of people who know a good operating system and quality phone when they see it and it's likely that .05 percent of them give a sh!t about tech articles.

  • Dell XPS 13 9370 vs. Apple's 13-inch MacBook Pro, the ultimate comparison

    For me and I bet most Apple fans it doesn’t matter if some PC laptop has more ports, is faster by a few milliseconds, has more cores or whatever. It’s always macOS vs Windows for me and I can’t imagine using that POS operating system. I bought my wife a Dell laptop with an i7 processor, good amount of RAM because the $2000.00 software package for her Bernina 830 sewing/embroidery machine only runs on Windows. The Dell has Windows 10 installed with all current updates applied and still takes almost three times longer to boot up than my 2013 iMac running High Sierra. On the Dell sometimes it can connect to the sewing machine, sometimes it won’t and the wife has to use a USB stick to move her designs onto the machine. If I won the fastest tricked out Windows PC money could buy I would sell it for whatever I could get for it and buy another Mac. End of story.
    Why didn't you purchase a mac and just install windows? Four cores though are handy but it totally depends if one is using apps that work better with cores rather than gpu's.
