    Let's see a show of hands...who would like a folding phone...anyone...anyone...Buller...Buller...crickets.
    I would love one and will buy one WHEN, not if, they release one.

  • Apple's Dan Riccio transitions to special project, John Ternus now SVP of Hardware Enginee...

    Every time someone posts “Apple Glass” (a name Apple would NEVER use) my eyes roll up and I sigh heavily.
    Apple has some really bad naming sometimes. Don’t put it pass them to name it that.

  • Data shows 62% of Apple TV+ subscribers are on a trial, most don't plan to renew

    Everyone here who said this is an issue of “quantity” is 100% on the money. People like their services to have big libraries, and Apple TV+ is in its infancy in that regard.  ATV+ shouldn’t really even be in the conversation with other services at this point. 
    Not really. People want to have shows they watch, not libraries of content they do not watch. I have both TV+ and Disney+, however despite its library being many times the size, I have watched fewer shows on Disney+. Were I to have to choose between the two today, I would easily pick TV+.
    Well, so far Apple TV only had two shows I wanted to watch but they are over now, TMS and FAMK. All other shows, for me are “garbage” that everyone says others have. For us, Netflix has way more quality shows to watch. Besides this site, nobody talks about the shows on Apple TV in conversation. But everyone is talking about one of the many quality shows on Netflix.

  • Apple Car US production reportedly assigned to Hyundai subsidiary Kia

    Seems highly unlikely. Kia is Hyundai’s even lower quality car brand. This sounds like a car industry rumor meant to poison the well for Apple.
    You OBVIOUSLY haven’t been paying that much attention to Kia of late. The Telluride was practically the ultimate car of the year for every auto magazine and online car ratings. Highly recommended by just about everyone as well. The new Soranto seems to ride the coat tails this year as well.

  • Qualcomm's latest under-display fingerprint sensor is 50% faster

    I have a couple year old iPad Pro. The fingerprint reader works half to two thirds of the time. At least once a day it fails enough I have to enter my passcode. That’s not counting when I have water, or dust, or lotion on my hands and it just refuses to recognize my finger at all.  FaceID on my 11 though is just flawless. So sure if they want to put the fingerprint reader under the screen that’s fine. I’m sure some people will jump at it. I’m going to stick to FaceID.
    I agree. I don't quite understand why anyone would want Touch ID at this point. Face ID will only get better. And I would guess it'll be on the iMac soon enough too. It seems really silly to be investing in touch ID phone tech at this point. WHat's next, floppy disks for 'small file, portable storage.'?
    FaceID is useless for me because I have a face mask on about 12 hours a day. It’s pretty much always putting my passcode in now. Slowing down the process. Not to mention using some apps makes it cumbersome now. I’d love to have TouchID under the screen right now. Or a least somewhere.
