  • Apple will frame iPhone 15 USB-C switch as a consumer win

    It IS a consumer win.

    And it's a win we wouldn't have gotten if the EU hadn't forced Apple to do it.
    Would have been better if they skipped usbc and did MagSafe like they did on the MacBook Pro honestly.  Being forced into anything is never a win and now we are saddled with this port until the EU dictates otherwise.  All hail the EU though.. 🙄
    Yeah, because MagSafe is such a great connector for data transfer and it's so easy to knock over a phone while it's charging on your nightstand.... 🤷

  • Game Mode isn't enough to bring gaming to macOS, and Apple needs to do more

    CheeseFreezeCheeseFreeze
    It’s frustrating to purchase a Mac at a premium price and not being able to use it for gaming the way Windows is used. I miss an entire category of content (with my primary usage being productivity & content creation).

    I agree with most points in this article although I don’t think opening up the Mac with GPU support makes sense. 

    Apple could consider a new product: an M3 Max powered “Apple TV” under a different brand name, e.g “Apple HomeCenter” or whatever (hopefully with a better name ;-).
    It could compete with Xbox and PlayStation, but the Apple way. For this it would need to have strong 1st party content, and subsidize developers porting their work to this device (+ with compatibility with macOS, potentially supporting separate online instances for players on controllers using HomeCenter and desktop/mouse users).
    It could offer a more compelling subscription like Xbox and PlayStation.
    Apple would need to consider selling the device with no profit margin to compete; < $499 and consider it being a vending machine of services.

  • Apple set to overhaul iPad Pro with OLED and Magic Keyboard revamp

    CheeseFreezeCheeseFreeze
    This all doesn’t change the fact the iPad Pro is a crippled notebook (mostly) due to its software.

    The iPad at least isn’t positioned and priced as such (however, still too expensive).

  • What the iPhone 15 Pro in gray titanium could look like

    CheeseFreezeCheeseFreeze
    It’s a super bland color, yuck. Then again, who cares? Who walks around with a $1200 phone without a protective cover?

  • iPhone 15 Pro might ditch gold in favor of blues and grays

    CheeseFreezeCheeseFreeze
    Space grey has become boring and bland. Bit dated honestly. I hope the new MacBook Pro’s come in new colors. In fact the MacBook Air midnight blue is very beautiful and has a luxurious feel to it.
