  • iPhone's global marketshare drops in March quarter as Chinese rivals remain ascendant

    ivanh said:
    Apple is now 6 years lagging behind the world, e.g. 5G modem in 2025. No break-through in house apps, e.g. still the same Contacts app of 5 years ago. Poor HomeKit & Siri than Google Home & Assistant. Poor ergonomic screen design, you have to press buttons with your fingers flying to every corner of the screen to do simple tasks, the bigger the screen, the longer distance your fingers need to travel.

    my friend told me that his iPhone 6s is as fast as his son’s iPhone X. I asked him how come. He said it’s because he never updates the iOS and thus able to retain the original speed. Comparing to my iPhone 6 Plus with the current iOS version, his iPhone 6s runs like the Flash. And, he keeps the lovely 32-bit games which I have to forget because there’s no more 32-bit version.

    frankly, my kids are using latest iPhone versions. But I find nowhere near to upgrade mine.  Apple, do you know your problems?
    I though that it was reported that Apple will make their own 5g modem in 2025 when their new Qualcomm agreement is over. It was never said they will wait until 2025 to introduce a 5g modem in their phones? So desperate to take a shot at Apple that you can't even get the rumored info straight. Please do better with the troll bullshit. 


    So your iPhone 6 plus runs faster on IOS 8 than the current IOS 12? ..... That was what the iPhone 6 plus shipped with BTW...  This whole post is nonsense..

    Maybe like this?  iPhone 7 Plus.  Facebook Messenger’s Dark Mode.  Looks great to me.
    I might be the only person in the world who isn’t a fan of Dark Mode hysteria. To my eyes, the white with black type is much easier to read than black with white type. Maybe it’s how my brain’s been programmed over the last 30+ years, but I much prefer the lighter themes. For example, the light theme Microsoft just introduced in Win10 is beautiful, in my opinion.
    Hysteria?

    Apple should have made the base model 64Gb for $199.

    But, of course Tim and his cronies won't because they know 64Gb is the sweet spot everyone wants. Get the user to pay $100 more for 128Gb. Milkers.
    Seriously????  It's $100.00 more for 3x the storage... Oh the horror!  Give me a break.  It's a music player not a phone.

  • Powerbeats Pro are better headphones than AirPods, but won't replace them

    So more bass is a positive now? It's hard to keep track of which Apple products are the victim of bass or enhanced by bass these days.
    More bass then the airpods or overwhelming booming bass are not the same thing.  To me besides the fit the weakest part of the airpods sound is bass response. I like tight and accurate, not barely there which is how airpods sound to my ears.  I also have an issue with the way they fit my ears so that may be contributing to what I feel is weak bass response.  So yes more bass than what the airpods produce is a positive in my opinion. I use a different brand of truly wireless from RHA and the bass is solid and accurate without being overbearing or booming. Night and day from her airpods.

  • No, Bloomberg, end-to-end encryption isn't a worthless 'marketing device'

    Since having gotten Apple News, and seeing articles from Bloomberg, Forbes, LA Times, ALL those publications having proven to be lying smut rags, to the point I’m now blocking them because even seeing their names makes me feel sick.

    Yet millions of people believe what these asshats put out verbatim and without question. No wonder the US is so fucked, people can’t think for themselves anymore, and the mainstream media takes advantage of them hook like and sinker.
    You sound like the type that takes what Apple (a for-profit corporation) says “verbatim”, but condemns others for doing the same.
    Is Apple a news agency?
