  • Apple working on privacy tech to make shoulder-surfing iPhone screens harder

    Would be nice if they could come up with a built-in feature like this that automatically activated on the passcode/password phone unlock screen.

  • Hands on: Twelve South Backpack shelf for Studio Display

    It’s probably worth noting that this only fits the Studio Display with the tilt-adjustable stand. It will not work with the tilt & height-adjustable stand.

  • Apple's Studio Display doesn't shine in the light of competition

    Where can I go purchase these competing monitors? [Narrator: You can't].

  • 2022 iPad Pro review: World's best tablet gets M2 power boost - but not much else

    jetpilotjetpilot
    The 11" screen is very nice, but I'm still disappointed that they didn't bring the mini LED to the 11" model. They're both iPads Pro...the only differentiator should be screen size (just as with the iPhone Pro line). I'm can only guess that the reason they didn't bring the mini LED to the smaller iPad was due to the supply chain issues that have been plaguing just about everything tech-related for the last couple of years. Hopefully next refresh in 18 months when we are past all that (I hope) they can align the features of the pro iPads.

  • Apple's 2023 CarPlay is an Apple Car preview - and is scaring Detroit

    Has anyone yet considered the possibility that this new CarPlay IS the "apple car" project?
    Thousands of Apple employees didn’t work for 9 years just for this. 
    How do you know? You don't work for Apple. Incorporating the new Car Play into every single system of a car and designing it so it works seamlessly across vehicles from numerous manufacturers around the world would take a tremendous effort over an extended period of time from many people with expertise in various areas of the automotive industry. They didn't just cobble this together overnight. As the article states:

    "Apple needs to work hard with automakers to deliver this level of system integration. Never before has CarPlay been able to interface with a car's real-time systems, and that will likely require fine-tuning.

    CarPlay has to be perfect. The average weight of a vehicle is 4,156 pounds, according to a 2020 report from the Environmental Protection Agency. That's a lot more dangerous than rolling out an iOS update that introduces a storage bug."
