  • AirUnleashed is a three-device Qi charging pad with Apple Watch compatibility

    gutengel said:
    Did you guys review a unit or just screenshot low res pictures from the AirUnleashed website to put on your article? This is just a mat with 2 Qi coils and a embedded Apple Watch charger in the middle. It lookd low quality and very sketchy judging by their website...

    Unleashing the Unreleased

    More than a year after their announcement, Apple cancelled the AirPower.

    The AirUnleashed is for all the disappointed Apple fanboys (and girls); a wireless charging mat that can simultaneously charge three of your favourite Apple devices; an iPhone, Apple Watch and AirPods.

    This turned me off immediately. ...
    Is this thing even Qi Certified?
    Good question...

    AirUnleashed is a Qi-compatible wireless charger suitable for:
    • iPhone XS
    • iPhone XS Max
    • iPhone XR
    • iPhone X
    • iPhone 8 Plus
    • iPhone 8
    • Wireless Charging Case for AirPods
    • Apple Watch Series 3
    • Apple Watch Series 4
    I am not sure what Qi-compatible is??

  • Struggling iPhone sales & muted Services predicted for Apple's earnings

    The golden years are over for Apple, IMO. I'm sure they'll still make billions in the future but their services like Apple TV+ don't look very enticing at all. Too much competition from others. These days, they just don't have great new products coming out every year that wow the public. That's more down to technology stagnating with 'the next big thing' probably still years away.
    You got all that from an analyst guess ? Interesting..

  • No, '250 scientists' didn't warn that AirPods are a cancer risk

    Hmm...DED’s article is the first I heard about this.
    Really?  Where have you been hiding. Scientists have warned that potential health risks of chronic EMF exposure include cancer, genetic damages, neurological disorders, learning and memory deficits, and reproductive issues, among others. 
    Slow down... OP was talking about the specific article that singled out Airpods, not the risk of EMF exposure from Cellphones.

    "Anyone who sticks a Bluetooth radiating device INTO their head ... needs their head examined".  Please elaborate...  What device doesn't rest in your ear canal and is actually put into your head?

  • Power button class action suit for iPhone 4, iPhone 4s, iPhone 5 will be heard on Oct. 25

    I never had problems with any of these phone models. Like all of the other lawsuits, the lawyers will benefit from this more than the Apple customers will.
    I had the power button issue with my iPhone 4 bought on launch 2010. I used a fix that I saw on Youtube where i put a thin piece of plastic under the button to make it work properly, but only for so long.  It got me through to trade it in for the iPhone 5 in 2012. Loved my 5 and didn't have either issue. Only prob I had with the 5 was the battery and it was replaced for free by Apple under the battery replacement program.

    I do agree however..what kind of payout are people looking for this many years later?

  • Apple retains leads in laptop technical support, but gap is narrowing

    Out of six reported issues in the past 8 months five have been escalated to Engineering and  are still unresolved. 

    100% of issues get resolved by Apple? It’s complete and utter BS. 
    "Apple solved 100 percent of phone inquiries". That's a bit different than "issues" as you put it. If a call is made and info is given, or a call is made and you are connected with a tech that can help with a broken or misbehaving device.  I personally have never made a call to Apple and have it not be resolved somehow.

    What issues have you had that Apple just couldn't help and just stopped helping and left it unresolved?  I personally have not had that happen, and I have had some strange shit happen with iPhones over the years.  if this has happened to you that is unfortunate and unacceptable.
