  • Apple focusing on lower resolution screens to make a more affordable Apple Vision Pro

    I wonder if the path to cheaper is smarter not harder.
    use the users own brains natural systems to build out more of scene with less pixels. 

    Make the screens have a smaller dense area of colour surrounded by a larger area for white pixels. This is how vision works most of the colour you see is based on what your brain remembers it being actively moving your head and eyes to fill in gaps as it heads to.

  • Meta's Orion preview shines a light on Apple's spatial computing future

    The only question for Meta is when are they going to quit quietly like Google Glasses, hardware and OS software just isn’t in their capability, these pictures look like a Zuckerberg dream prototype and perfectly illustrate the point that if you can’t get rid of the Qualcomm modem and create your own Arm SOC you got nothing in house to get to that size of product. Oh? And Apple has nothing to do with it the relationship is about as close as the Windows mobile phone or Blackberry is to the original iPhone.
    Indeed the only way to even get close to the material thickness that would make these close to desirable would be to have a fully custom single plank of chip that can use the arm as the support. 

    Even the cameras need to be looking through the lens to stop the frames looking stupid..

  • EU advocacy group sues Apple because other streaming music services hiked prices

    Will any consumer see any of that money back if they will or will legal cost neatly cover the payout?

  • iPadOS 18 review: making iPad better for everyone but the pros

    Sorry but the framing here is wrong. 
    All people who take enough interest in the OS to read this article are probably disappointed in some respects to what was delivered but also pleased in others. You don’t need to be a “Pro” to be bittersweet about an OS update.

  • J.D. Vance shouldn't open his mouth about Apple if he doesn't have a clue

    Well, well, well...  This kind of writing certainly is getting rather "political" for AppleInsider.  Even so, I do see AppleInsider allowing people to actually comment under more hot button articles now, which is a good thing.

    ** snip
    1: Whataboutism. It's just Vance's turn.

    2: We've been very clear for a decade how we feel about the antitrust issues, and the utter inability of politicians to make sane decisions or statements about Apple. This is a bipartisan issue.

    3: As you're aware, you don't have to read everything. If you feel like a piece is going to irritate you, you can skip it!
    In the interest of point 3 you should avoid click bait headlines so an honest assessment can be made of articles to skip.
