This seems more like wishful thinking than fact.

  • Apple narrows iOS loyalty rate gap with Android in Q3, retention rates at all-time high

    That is a pretty decent jump. I would love to see them start breaking it down inside Android with the Pixel. I would bet that would be a lot higher. With the AI stuff Google is doing and then the fact they do not play the game of trying to use new features to get you to get a new phone is going to increase loyalty. Companies like Samsung plays the game of trying to use updates as a way to get you to buy a new phone. So the Pixel 2 people get the new incredible camera besides the wide selfie. They get the call screening. They get majority of the new features. I carry both an iPhone and a Pixel 2 XL but there is little chance I will not be using a Pixel for a very long time. I have used iPhones since the 3G and would say I am probably already more loyal to the Pixel. It is what I use more and more.
    The few that I know that have switched from iOS to Android seem to be very happy with their choice. They think it’s a better OS (the old days when Android was indeed an iOS ripoff are long gone now) add to that the enormous choice of handsets and price ranges they now have is a win-win for them (mind you they still seem to go mainly for Samsung!) As for me, maybe Android is better maybe it isn’t but iOS serves my needs well enough. I also think Apple still has the edge when it comes to security and privacy, which is important to me. So I’m staying, but over the last couple of years I have become increasingly disillusioned by Apple and am not the fanboy I used to be. A bit like an unhappy marriage I suppose, where you stay for the kids.

  • Purported 2018 iPad Pro render shows edge-to-edge display, thinner design

    I’m for the rumored flat edges. Maybe they designed that in to make the device easier to hold now that it’s virtually bezel-less. I also miss the flat edges and polished chamfers of the iPhone 5 series. They gave it a classy look IMO.

  • Google's Pixel 3 is a third strike for hapless HTC and LG

    So basically just another Google bashing article here then.

  • Availability shrinking for LG UltraFine 5K Display at Apple Stores

    Maybe they’re planning to introduce new Apple monitors at the (hopefully) upcoming iPad event together with at least some details or prototype viewings of next year’s Mac Pro? After all these rumored in-house monitors would be useful to users other than those of said Mac.
