    Reminds of all those Bondi Blue iMac knockoffs back in the day... https://512pixels.net/2016/05/imac-clones/

    Reminds me of knockoff Macbooks from Samsung, Knockoff AirPods from Huawei, knockoff iPhones from everyone, knockoff iPads from everyone, knockoff Apple Watches....

    iKnockoff users will buy these and claim "but but Apple didn't invent the [insert goalpost here]!!"

    History repeating. First they mock you, then they copy you.

  • Apple releases Apple TV+ 'Truth Be Told' trailer on YouTube

    Looks very good and fills a niche.

    Is there enough violence and sex to shut up the people claiming Apple's content is too mild and that Apple is trying to be Disney?
    The violence and sex is simply an excuse for those that are looking to criticize Apple for any reason. They can claim a million different reasons why this show or Apple TV + will fail but the only one that matters is the quality of the storytelling.

    I figured when violence and sex appeared they'd move the goal posts to the next irrelevant complaint.

    How about the fact every production will be filmed in 4K HDR? No streaming service on Earth has this.

  • Compared: Apple's iPhone 11 Pro Max versus the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 and 10+

    The storage size wasn't mentioned at all? Is this not an important metric?

    For $1099 the iPhone gives you 64GB while the Note gives you 256GB, big difference when you can simultaneously shoot with 4K on multiple cameras.

    As for the screen, until the iPhone 11 came about, the Note was recognized as having the A+ screen.
    Then the Galaxy S11 will come out, and it will considered the best.

    Then the Note 11 and then the iPhone 12 will be top until the next Galaxy flagship or until the iPhone comes along with its new micro led screen perhaps, who knows? It's swings and roundabouts.

    To say any of the screens or cameras on any of these phones is significantly better than the other is rubbish really, they both have strengths and weaknesses.

    Personally, I'd want more memory on an iPhone, 4GB in 2019 flagship costing up to $1499 is just being cheap. Sure, iOS does better with less ram but it also seems to struggle keeping certain apps open in the background.

    Look what happened when apple threw a big battery in their new phones, instant battery god phone, why not double the memory, it wouldn't cost much and you'd make a lot of people happier, even 6GB would have made a difference.

    Anyway, both phones are great, choose the one you want.

    Galaxy displays suck compared to iPhone because they can't utilize Apple's display tech like True Tone.

  • Apple's new tvOS 13 for Apple TV is now available

    As a reminder, comments like "I don't see it yet" aren't helpful.

    We don't publish until at least one staffer sees it on a device. As you're all aware, the rollout takes some time, and is CDN and caching-dependent.

    Does anyone know what the latest roll out times are? One time my Apple TV didn't auto update for a week!

    It's interesting that an OS for your TV gets multi-user support before an iPad OS  :D

    iPad is still a more personal device whereas most Apple TVs are in a living room.

    I REALLY hope the "preview" feature can be turned off unlike Netflix.
    Me too, would def be a reason to see if I can downgrade to previous ios levels

    Why? It's unobtrusive and the sound is muted until you swipe up to watch full screen.
