  • Hands on with a 2019 iPad Pro model with three camera lenses

    Go to something like a girls club volleyball tournament. You’ll see tons of people using iPads to record video. Having better cameras is never a bad thing. I really don’t understand people who disparage having better cameras on the iPad

  • Goldman Sachs spends $350 for every Apple Card signup

    Not trying to be negative on this, really asking.  Why would anyone want this card?  The rate is pretty high, the integrations are interesting but don't really add that much value IMO, and I can use Apple Pay with my existing card.  What is the draw?
    Honestly? I really like the clean look, and heft of the physical card.  The application and activation process is pretty slick and the transaction analyzer on the Wallet app is fascinating.  I also get 3% cash back on my iTunes and iCloud Drive subscriptions.  It's free so why the hell not?  

    I couldn't care less about the interest rate (12.99%) as I pay off my bills every month.  I couldn't care less about the inability to export transactions to Mint/Quicken (I actually wonder why people think it safe to share all of their financial login information with Mint, but I digress).  

    I get that it's just another credit card.  I have other cards with better rewards (e.g. AMEX) but this won't replace them.  What I don't understand is all the hate  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
