Compared: Apple's AirPods Pro vs Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus
I get the impression from the article that whomever wrote it hasn’t actually used the Samsung buds. It appears they just read a spec sheet and repeated it back to us. There was no hands-on discussion of fit, comfort (other than the a Samsung quote), sound quality, or ANC quality.

NYC subway commuters get creative rescuing AirPods dropped on tracks
THANK YOU so much for clearly and concisely writing what I think every time I see that user post a comment. It is painfully exhausting reading that person’s constant negativity on EVERY thread that they post in. It really goes a long way towards making the comments section on this site quite an unfriendly and toxic environment.CloudTalkin said:
No, what I'm asking is for you to give it rest... at least for a single thread. I thought that was pretty clear. You enter almost every thread with the same woe is me tale of someone attacking the precious. You never contribute positively to any thread you enter. No general knowledge, no interesting anecdote, no humorous aside, no perfectly timed "well actually" [pushes up glasses] - who doesn't like to correct their fellow man, no hmmm, I did not know that... nothing except the same tired refrain of OMG somebody somewhere at some point said something about Apple that wasn't 100% flattering.lkrupp said:
Oh, so you’re saying that Apple is not the target of unceasing, malicious persecution from battalions of tech and financial writers who twist, spin, and mold everything Apple into a negative just to get clicks?CloudTalkin said:
C'mon man. Give the persecution complex a rest for at least one thread. Sweet Jeebus.lkrupp said:Another huge failure for Apple. So where are the Samsung ads making fun of AirPod users?
On topic: If Munster has lost 10 pair and a charging case, the issue is Munster more so than the AirPod. He needs to invest in those cheap straps.
Take this article for instance. There's nothing in it disparaging Apple or the AirPods. It's simple a collection of anecdotal tidbits about the tribulations of using AirPods in the crowded NYC subway system with a bonus splash of Gene Munster weirdness. Nothing connected to this article even suggests a failure by Apple. Yet you've found a way to make the claim. Why? And yes, I am saying Apple is not the target of unceasing malicious persecution. That's nothing more that excessive hyperbole. Are there articles written that are negative about Apple? Yeah sure there are. Criticize them until the cows come home. But grinding every thread with the somebody's picking on Apple meme... that's an lkrupp thing, not an Apple thing. Even in comments where you're trying to compliment Apple you can't seem to stop yourself from taking a dig at some perceived slight from some imaginary foe. By all means, you do you. Just sayin', some new material every now and then would be really appreciated.

Watch: HEIF vs. JPEG on iPhone 8 compared
To export the HEIF file to your Mac, all you have to do in Photos are select the photos you want to export and then in the File menu select “Export” > “Export Unmodified Original”. No need for USB cables or to go spelunking in your Photos library folder.

Video: Should you preorder Apple's iPhone 8, or wait for iPhone X?
For me, it's because I would like to upgrade my phone now instead of waiting for some unknown date in the future when I will be able to get my hands on the X (due to expected severe supply constraints).ben20 said:Why would you anybody buy iPhone 8 when you can get iPhone 10?
If I knew that I would be able to have one delivered on Nov. 3 then I would wait. However most signs are pointing to the X being severely supply-constrained well into the first half of 2018. At that point we are 2/3 of the way through the iPhone cycle and I've wasted the many months that I could've been enjoying my 8+.
That's why I'm going for the 8+ this year instead of the X. When the X-style phone becomes the standard iPhone is when I will jump on board. Either way, all three new phones are great new upgrades for anyone who is interested. I just don't have the patience to wait until (insert unknown date here) when I can have the new 8+ in less than a week. Impatient? Sure. But I'm fine with that.
