  • Hands on: Apple's USB-C accessories leave us wanting more

    I think they keyboard is just fine as it is (but too expensive).

    However, that mouse!… 

    - users need to feel a left and right button
    - users need to feel a left click and a right click
    - same for a scroll wheel
    - the shape needs to avoid carpal tunnel syndrome
    - the charge port needs to be on the back to charge while used (for gamers especially)
    - the click latency needs to be reduced
    - the polling rate needs to be increase

  • First M4 Max benchmark tears apart the M2 Ultra Mac Studio

    Question:

    Why is a 1tb, 48gb M4 Pro Mac Mini more expensive than the baseline price of a current Mac Studio M3 Max (assuming Apple will keep the price the same for M4 Max)?

    Because just the difference in RAM but a much more specced enclosure and better chip doesn’t make sense to me.
    There is no m3 max Mac Studio. It’s stuck on m2 generation for now. 

    And that m4 pro Mac mini will tear the m2 max a new one. Heck, it whoops the m2 ultra also - at least in cpu. Waiting on GPU scores. 
    Apologies, I meant M2.
    But my question remains - why is the M4 Pro purchase price as mentioned more expensive as what will be the base Mac Studio?

  • Apple is buying a treasure in Pixelmator, and we hope it won't get destroyed

    My prediction:

    1. Photomator is killed off because it overlaps with Photos. Photos gains the organizational and editing additions. And this will unfortunately lock people back into iCloud only storage.

    2. Pixelmator Pro gets renamed and will be provided for free as part of their productivity apps.

  • New 24-inch iMac adds M4 chip, nano-texture glass option

    I see that Apple said that the M4 is 1.7 times faster than the M1, how about telling us how much faster the M4 is compared to the M2 & the M3.

    Could it be that it’s not very much faster than the M3?
    I hate it when they do that. It's probably 10-20% faster, depending on single vs multi-core tasks. The NPU of-course will be much faster.
