A Christmas miracle: iPhone X now available at 97% of US Apple stores
wemclaughlins said:Yes, truly a Festivus miracle...of common sense. People wise enough to not blow a minimum $1000 on a phone that makes it near impossible to close out apps and with a goofy notch as part of its style lines. Course $1000+ was reason enough and I could have stopped there.
Hmmm it seems like Christmas has brought in some more Apple haters, go figure.johnbear said:an abominable device, strange screen ration narrow and long and with the disgusting cutout at the top. all that for over 1000 dollars when the market is full of quality phones from competitors for less money.

New Apple AirPods with smaller components could launch in late 2018
I would like to know how much the Beats branded wireless headphones are selling. If this 28 million units figure is even remotely accurate, the Beats purchase was a very smart bye.
He expects supply to improve heading into 2018, allowing AirPods shipments to grow 100 percent year over year to 28 million units. In a previous research note, Kuo declared AirPods "the most important accessory in Apple's wireless ecosystem."

Apple close to buying music identification service Shazam, report says
Nah Siri can already do have this now, just ask Siri what’s that song or something like that and Siri does it perfectly every time. It’s not a bad guess to think the back end services are what is delaying the HomePod. However what I’ve been hearing is that it’s more likely to be AirPlay 2 and working out how more than one HomePod will work together.k2kw said:I guess we now know why I he homePod is delayed. They are buying their "musicologist" -
Honor's new View 10 phone brings iPhone X-style Animoji to Android

Huawei already announced their system a week or so back, but it's not being used in the V10 (http://winfuture.de/news,100794.html).AppleInsider said:
Huawei and fellow Chinese phonemakers Oppo and Xiaomi are expected to adopt 3D sensors on upcoming 2018 models, following in the footsteps of the iPhone X's TrueDepth camera.
It looks rather similar to Apple's system, no surprise there. It can capture 300,000 points in under 10 seconds (iPhone X does 30,000 points, but in a shorter amount of time). Huawei also claims their system will unlock in 0.4 seconds.
If it works as well as they claim, and that's an "if", then it would seem they're able to catch up to the hardware in a pretty short amount of time. Huawei also has a Neural Processing Unit as part of their Kirin 970 that's considerably more powerful than Apple's Neural Engine in the A11 Bionic, so all that remains is the software.
It's similar to Apples set up, but I'm curious as to why they have 2 RGB cameras?
