  • Wi-Fi 7 speeds are almost as fast as Thunderbolt 3

    320 MHz-wide channels are not good news.  The biggest win in 6 GHz (Wi-Fi 6e) is the fact that we get 14 non-overlapping 80 MHz channels capable of 1.2 Gbit/sec (for typical phones/laptops that support 2 spatial streams).  In 5 GHz, there were only 4 of those non-overlapping 80 MHz channels, creating huge interference problems in dense residential/commercial areas. With Wi-Fi 6e, everyone can finally have their gigabit.

    We simply don't have enough 6 GHz spectrum for people to be hogging 320 MHz with each Wi-Fi access point  It's rude.

  • iPhone 12 can act as 5GHz Wi-Fi hotspot, boon for 5G

    Yeah, this has literally nothing to do with 5G. Even tethering from a 3G HSPA connection is going to see major performance improvements from moving out of the noisy 2.4 GHz spectrum and getting a wider band.

  • Apple debuts Smart Battery Case for iPhone 6s, extends life up to 25 hours

    By my estimation, this battery is a little over 3000 mAh in capacity.

    Apple claims battery extends 3G talk time by up to 25 hours.  
    • Original: 14 hours (1715 mAh internal battery).
    • (25/14) * 1715 = 3062.5 mAh
    Apple claims battery extends internet browsing over LTE by up to 18 hours.
    • Original: 10 hours (1715 mAh internal battery)
    • 18/10 * 1715 = 3087 mAh
