  • iPhone Fold will dominate the market despite 2026 arrival

    More power to those who truly want and no problem spending extra for the Foldable iPhone. For me, a day would be when Apple offers iPhone with complete screen design hiding FaceID, front camera, TouchID invisible under the screen.

  • Apple sues Jon Prosser over iOS 26 leaks

    Anyone who publish trade secret of a company without company's written approval; that person weather works for that company or stole directly or indirectly is considered trade secret criminal, traitor of country. Company and country where this company resides should punish such individual or a group to maximum extent including large fine and multiyear jail time with worse criminals in prison.
    Why ? Because such act puts company's product at dis-advantage against it's competitors. Millions of developers and investors like me in Apple and thousands of employees suffer financially in a short and long run.

  • Eero 7 Max mesh router review: The best kind of Wi-Fi overkill

    wood1208 said:
    eero max 7 wireless speed up to 4.3 Gbps, 10 Gig Internet port, covers 2500 sq ft. Costs $600. 
    NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi 7 Router (RS700S) wireless speed up to 19 Gbps with 10 Gig Internet Port, covers 3500 sq ft. Costs $500


    From Netgear: † Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE® 802.11 specifications. Actual data throughput and wireless coverage will vary and be lowered by network, your country’s regulation, and environmental conditions, including network traffic volume, device limitations, and building construction. NETGEAR makes no representations or warranties about this product's compatibility with future standards. Up to 18.7 Gbps wireless speeds achieved when connecting to other 802.11be 18.7 Gbps devices.

    The RS700S hits 3 gigabits per second with WiFi 7 BE19000, not BE20800 like the 7 Max, in real life, just like this does. The difference is, Eero is honest about it. Don't get me wrong, I like the RS700S, a friend has it. It's just never, ever going to hit that 18.7 gbps wireless speed.

    You'll also note that this is not a five-star review.

    Real life network speed is typically lower than the lab speed because the building walls/floors are constructed different in different places for wifi signal's ability to penetrate. In USA/Canada, most houses have wood/drywall construction vs i Europe, Asia and Middle east are bricks and concrete. When I select my home router, I like to see the ability of router(antenna, power, channel aggregation) to go signal far, strong and speed.

  • Apple is right to ditch folding iPad plans in favor of the iPhone Fold

    If every android manufacturers are selling foldable phones and importantly upward market trend for foldable phones than Apple needs to offer it. Those who want to spend more to buy foldable iphone then they will buy. 
    To me the foldable phone is more novelty then more functional. Next few years, I will stick to current iPhone format and keep upgrading to the same.

  • Apple testing M4 MacBook Air with ultra-wide camera & Center Stage support

    WiFi 7 support in M4 MacBook Air can easily make me upgrade from my current 15” M2 MBA. Apple needs to design/make its own in-house wifi7/BT6 combo chip.
