  • Evidence mounting that Apple is preparing alternative to Google search

    I would love this rumor to be true. I have been looking for a more privacy-focussed alternative to Google Search, but the quality of search results on DuckDuckGo doesn’t quite cut it for me.
    However, developing a search engine seems like a gigantic project - I agree that there would likely be more indications if Apple had indeed invested serious resources in that field.
    I’m cautiously optimistic.

  • Apple debuts $699 5.4-inch iPhone 12 mini

    I’m quite impressed by the non-pro iPhones this year - with OLED displays adoped across the line, the only differentiator of the Pros that remains seems to be the camera technology.
    The iPhone 6/7/8 was the perfect smartphone size for me - having a larger display in an even smaller size is pretty neat. Makes me wonder what took Apple so long to design a mini version. Both I and my wife will be getting this and so are a couple of friends. It’s hard to for me to believe that there is less demand for smaller iPhones as some people have commented.

  • Review: Flash 2.0 USB-C Graphene 210W Power Bank is powerful but costly

    While I’m not in the market for a powerbank I am very interested in learning more about this graphene battery technology. Based on what I have read, graphene batteries were still too expensive / difficult to produce in early 2020. Is this one of the first consumer-grade products with this technology?
    I would love to learn more about this technology and about its potential in Macbooks and iPhones.

  • Everything Apple released at the 'Time Flies' event - and what we thought

    I’m surprised by Mike Peterson’s assessment that “the iPad updates were incremental in nature”. A14 and a new design with the first iteration of a Touch ID button on the side, in addition to new colors, make the Air a compelling new product IMO.

    It’s interesting to read the staff’s responses. Please keep or develop this format for future releases!

  • Apple Fitness+ will offer workouts on any screen

    wattouk said:
    The biggest question I have is that if me and my partner want to workout to the same video at the same time, is that possible? Would it show both of our info on screen? I hope so.
    That's a really good question! I would assume that any display will only display the information of the user who is logged in for privacy reasons. Of course, this wouldn't keep you from doing the exercise together, anyway.

    It would be exciting if Apple allowed some 'multi-player' and perhaps online-community features that allow friends to workout together even during social distancing.
