  • Apple hasn't abandoned microLED tech, despite recent setbacks

    The advantage of microLED is that it could offer OLED-like contrast and brightness, but without requiring a backlight panel.

    Instead, the microLEDs are used directly to make the picture. They are deposited in a pattern, with each able to display red, green, or blue light. This also eliminates the need for a color filtering layer.

    What? OLED doesn't have a backlight panel, OLED pixels are "used directly" to make the picture and they don't need a color filtering layer. You are confusing LCD and LED. Either way LCD is irrelevant on the Watch because it uses OLED. The actual advantages to MicroLED are it's essentially immune to burn in, the brightness is higher, colour quality can be better and potentially less power consumption. You are welcome to credit me in the article.
    The wording is definitely confusing but the intended meaning is not incorrect. The complete thought being expressed is the following, with my addition in bold: "The advantage of microLED is that it could offer OLED-like contrast and brightness, but without requiring a backlight panel like conventional LED displays."
    ^^ confusing, and wrong, which is why elijahg corrected - thank you for wording now updated / clarified^

  • HomePod mini ditches space gray in favor of new midnight color

    Dang. Why do this. Midnight is no replacement for space grey. 

    Wish Apple would have kept it. 

    Bought a space gray mini recently and wanted another. But midnight just doesn’t go with my stuff. Don’t like the color. 

    Guess I’ll get a white one.  
    I’m sure the stores still have plenty of space gray stock

    I'd just be happy if I don't have to repeat my basic commands like "Call " 25 times before it understands me
    And I would be happy if when replying to an email via Siri, it would see that the message came from Erin and not transcribe my Siri reply note with “Hi Aaron”
