With Apple 5G modem likely in 2021, prospects for 5G iPhone in 2020 'in jeopardy'
swiftrun said:I’d like to replace my 6s Plus with a new iOS device.
This is a pricey adventure and I want to make sure before I layout $1500-$2000 the device is 5G capable.
Apple could solve this problem quite easily if they could sort out their problems with Qualcomm.
I agree the 5G infrastructure isn’t there yet. But Apple needs to have their devices 5G ready so it’s only a matter of a iOS update to turn it on.
Figure it out Apple, sooner than later!!!😡Don't wait for 5G. There are two parts to 5G - the first is the 5G overlay on EXISTING frequencies (less than 6 GHz). The second is the frequency extension to millimeter wave frequencies (25+ GHz). The former should only require a modem change (existing antennas should be OK), but it's the latter that will also require now mmWave antennas to be added - that should take a few phone iterations to get the mmWave antennas optimized.So I highly suspect that any phone that ships this year that says it supports 5G will only be supporting the first part.

Apple Card: Best and worst features of Apple's credit solution
Obviously, this card will be accepted in the US first. But is it considered a Mastercard, Visa, or something new? I ask because if I want to use this outside of the US, I (and the merchant) need to know. Thanks.

Your Mac could wirelessly power keyboards and mice at a distance in the future

Apple's macOS adds official support for AMD Radeon RX 560 eGPUs
AppleInsider said:It appears that Mac users looking to boost their workflow with an RX 560 will have to deal with a few limitations.Apple notes playback of HDCP-protected content from iTunes and certain unnamed streaming services is not supported on displays directly connected to an RX 560-based eGPU, including Sonnet's device. Said content can, however, be viewed on the built-in display of a MacBook Pro, MacBook Air and iMac, the document reads.
So i assume the same restriction occurs with any third party enclosure+GPU card?Does this same restriction occur with the Apple-sanctioned BlackMagic eGPUs?
