  • Nest Wi-Fi, Nest Mini, Pixelbook Go updated during 'Made by Google' event

    Nothing but knockoff products. What a shame. Not surprised considering they own Android.

    Nest is the most original product but a shame the Nest team came up with it.

  • Compared: Apple's iPhone 11 Pro versus Samsung's Galaxy S10

    Finally a decent comparison.

    iKnockoff fans tend to do their comparisons in late August so that they have the advantage of comparing their spyware device with a year old iPhone.

    Heck Samsung compares their knockoffs to 4 year old iPhones. lol

  • Apple TV+ interface is more important to streaming video users than content

    And what makes people like the user interface? If it actually accomplishes something for them. In other words, helps them find things to watch.

    UI vs. content are not separate things, they are the same thing. None of these platforms allow you to actually see what content is available (which is an outrage all by itself and should be considered unlawful). They all hide their pitifully small libraries of content behind various forms of discoverability and curation. The more abstract they are, the more users despise them.

    Apple's TV app is now among the worst. Despite its alleged original purpose of collating all of your connected libraries into one, it has become one giant advertising platform for content Apple wants you to watch, even if you don't have access to it.

    Haven't tried tvOS 13 but I hate the fact paid content is mixed with my bought content. I imagine this confusing non-tech people thinking they can watch something that pops up in their subscriptions. This needs to GO!!!

  • 'iPhone SE 2' with A13 will cost $399 says Ming-Chi Kuo

    $400 would be the sweet spot for a smaller form factor.

    Whether it looks like an all screen 5 or 6 isn't as relevant to me as the small size.

    Well at least this will get rid of one more silly "Apple doesn't care about..." meme. Yeah, Apple does budget too. 

    They do budget now. The iPhone XR and iPhone 8 pricing changes after the event were proof enough of that.
    Those are old models with older processors and older hardware, being recycled for another year. And then another year,  old inventory mixed with some new production. This is a rare instance of a NEW budget model, and using the same general release schedule as someone like Google's Pixel line: Flagships in the fall followed by more a more budget-minded model with some of the flagship's features in the Spring. Smart!

    Nothing smart about copying Apple.

    It isn’t an SE if it is iPhone 8 sized. That would b an iPhone 8c.
    Wrong.

    The SE is about its price point. It has absolutely nothing to do with size. This is a delusion harbored by SE fanatics.

    But that's the target audience and reason to buy the iPhone.

    If Apple releases an iPhone 8-sized SE, it would be dumb to have another XR. That would be 3 iPhones with roughly the same size screen.

    “It isn’t an SE if it is iPhone 5 sized. That would b an iPhone 5c.” You’re logic is broken. 

    This crap was being flung around when the SE rumors were arising. People claimed it would be called iPhone 5se.

    Apple is not going to use an old number on a new iPhone.

  • All the new games that have been added to Apple Arcade

    Mac Appstore doesn't have most of those. I'm still eagerly waiting for Oceanhorn 2 to play on my Mac
    it is worthy on apple TV

    Here's hoping Arcade excites more Apple TV interest.

    We need more developers(gaming or non-gaming) to take the platform seriously.
