  • iPhone 17 may gain ProMotion on all models, no under-display Face ID on Pro

    About time! Competition has had 120hz screens in the $800 price range for a while now.

  • iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus may have been the bestsellers in debut weekend

    I think it’s pretty insane that Apple still puts a 60 Hz screen on a $900 iPhone 16 and I believe this demonstrates how desperately they are trying to extract more value out of the iPhone Pro.

    People are starting to become fed up paying € 1500 or so for a Pro phone with enough storage (excluding insurance and cover). It’s a commodity device.

    I happen to own both the 15 and the 15 Pro (with the former being for work). The screen sucks on the 15 (120 Hz does a lot for the perception of speed), but for the rest it feels like the same device, unless you are focused on prosumer videography.

  • Compared: A18 vs A18 Pro -- breaking down what's powering iPhone 16

    It’s a bit weird to compare the A18 to the A16 selectively. That sounds like a marketing trick from Apple to fabricate more impressive incremental improvements. 
    Why is this article falling in the marketing trap? I bet the A18 is 500% faster than the A4!

    Furthermore, as a user of both the iPhone 15 Pro (personal use) and the iPhone 15 (work) I find it quite insane that the iPhone 16 still is equipped with a 60hz screen. Many competitors run a 120hz screen around that price point and. 60hz screen is not great to work with honestly, especially a phone. It makes the device feel slow and stuttery.

    But if you look at what new use cases this unlocks or new problems it solves, you find out a year-over-year upgrade has nothing substantial to offer.

    Don’t get me wrong, all the updates are all nice, but the iPhone is very mature and it’s more challenging for the likes of Apple to defend upgrades.

  • Thinner & lighter Apple Watch Series 10 arrives with new design, sleep apnea detection


    I wish they would announce that Siri and Maps wont be stupid anymore with “Apple Intelligence” 🙏
    Maps is #1 these days. Preferred over Google. You’re brain stopped learning new things back when apple first launched baby maps way back. Whole new world these days. 

    Siri wasn’t brought along the way it should have. But it seems apple intelligence is overcompensating for that snd siri will be pretty great. 
    I guess you don’t live in Europe or Asia? 
    Google Maps is miles better.
