  • Apple rumored to be testing macOS for M2 iPad Pro

    CheeseFreezeCheeseFreeze
    I can actually believe it. These iPad Pros have as much RAM and storage as my 2015 MBP, along with a faster processor, so there's no reason they can't run Mac OS.
    The fact that you could doesn’t mean you should. It will confuse the heck out of the customer in respect to what the iPad is and should be. It will be a compromise operating system competing with macOS and iPadOS. 
    The fact an M2 can run macOS isn’t relevant. That’s just technology. This is about product.
    At this point, I'm not convinced even those in charge of the iPad within Apple know what the iPad is and should be. 
    I 100% agree that the iPad has an identity crisis. This is why I find the normal iPad the better product; it doesn’t imply to be a laptop replacement so much. The iPadPro however is stuck in no man’s land, floating between a laptop with touch capabilities, and an artistic and consumer content consumption device…. What is it??

    But allowing for macOS on the iPad is admitting exactly that: “we want to cater for everyone because we don’t know what we want this product to be”. They would also admit iPadOS being a failure, or at least partially, because one OS should cover all their intended usecases.

  • Apple chose a bad year to launch expensive iPads that aren't compelling

    Bit wordy to make its points, but 100% agreed. Hopefully next year’s revisions will be better.

  • Apple removes headphone jack from new 10th generation iPad

    This is sure to bring out the trolls, claiming they will never buy another iPad.

    But at this point, who needs the audio jack anyway? You have legacy earbuds? Get new ones. Get Bluetooth ones. Or buy a cheapo adapter. You say the audio quality is too low over Bluetooth? Well, you should be using a high end stereo system, that has both the 35mm and 1/4" audio jacks, not an iPad.
    You probably don't have kids. I'm not giving them wireless phones that they lose because they are so small and expensive. You want to buy rugged, wired headphones that require no Bluetooth setup. 

    The removal of the jack is dumb, like many of the design choices Apple made for both iPads this year. The regular iPad is THE choice for kids, and they just removed something that is super popular for parents.

    My sentiment. Such a stupid release.

  • New Apple TV 4K with A15, HDR10+, more storage debuts

    With games not being popular on AppleTV, the Apple TV app and sharing of your device being available on many Smart TV’s, what is the appeal of this product today? 
    Is it for people with old televisions?
