  • How Apple's worst value in a product will be a bestseller in 2023

    The whole point if the EU descision was to limit waste, so I surely hope Apple doesn’t decide to limit transfer and charger speed on ”none Mfi” cables and chargers and make all my USB-C equipment obsolete. That would be a waste.

  • Apple unveils new iPad mini with updated design, 5G

    AppleInsider said:
    Powering the iPad Mini is the A15 Bionic chip, featuring a 6-core CPU offering a 40% jump in performance, and a 5-core GPU boasting an 80% performance boost.
    Mini gets A15 and normal iPad gets A13? Probably right, but still turns my head inside out that Mini is much more powerful than normal iPad. Yeah, I know ”iPad Pro” and such. But shouldn’t it be named ”Pro Mini” if anything?

  • M1 16-inch MacBook Pro mistakenly listed by Apple Germany

    Why is this still the headliner on AppleInsider? It’s been days and it was just a typo, a ”labelling error”. There has to other real top news, no?

  • Netflix drops AirPlay support citing unnamed 'technical limitations'

    Dave Kap said:
    Why would anybody stream Netflix from their device to their Apple TV?  Why not just use the Apple TV app or the Netflix app on their TV?
    Because my mother has an older ATV where the Netflix app keeps crashing, so watching via iPad to her TV is the only way. And because all things should be as easy as possible: Watch on TV, watch on iPad, start on one and simply throw the video onto the TV (without opening Netflix app, wait, choose account, wait, scroll down to Keep watching, open the flick, start playing the flick...). Just simple and with all options open. 

    If anyone figures you should reply to this with saying ”just buy a newer ATV” you are more than welcome to pay ;)

    Why should a Mobile Price option hinder the rest of us who pays the full price? Just turn off AirPlay on those who only has Mobile Plan, no?

  • Wi-Fi spec naming getting simplified with new numbering scheme

    Finally! Even I who knows about it can get confused sometimes. And hope no one starts with that pre-crap again, like ”ac is not official so here is a router that has almost something like maybe but not actually as good or reliable or fast as ac...”.
