  • Apple VP Twitter profile hints at September event preparation

    pslice said:
    I enjoy every Apple event. Frustrating, though, that nothing about a 27” iMac is even hinted. My husband got the 24”, but I am hanging on for a 27” (or bigger). The iMac Pro is way beyond my needs or means. I just can’t see myself going to the 24”. It’s speedy and pretty, but not enough ports and the RAM and internal storage is less than I’d like. Sure hope to see a little bigger iMac. 
    Yep... i'm used to my 27" iMac (mid-2011 :) ) ... going to 24" would feel like a step backward (visualy). if they don't annonce a 27" (or larger) version, I imagine I'll me moving to a Mini with a non-apple monitor. Not as aesthetically pleasing, but functional. :)

  • 'iPad mini 6' rumored to use same A15 chip as 'iPhone 13' range

    Yes, I do.  It charges from a USB-C charger.
    So does the current Mini... so why do you care if it changes its port from Lightning (just like your iPhone) to USB-C? ...

    Do you think I will notice a performance increase versus my original iPad mini? /s
    That depends on how you use it.

    In Safari and Mail and Facebook? ... probably not.
    If you use it for audio and/or video manipulation... then probably so.
    Higher-end games will also take advantage of the better chip.

    But it will, of course extend the future usefulness compared to version 4... including it's ability to run the news versions of iOS.

  • AT&T shows new applications of 5G, from gaming to 'Space Jam'

    My issue with AT&T (and probably all other carriers too) is that they lie.  They tell me I'm getting 5G service... they even put a little 5G symbol up in the corner of my phone's screen... but my phone doesn't even HAVE a 5G modem in it. (iPhone X)
    I can't possibly be using a 5G network, but ATT tells me I am... it's all marketing... ATT's marketing department defines "5G" differently from the 5G of the signal processing industry definition.

    When ATT says "5G devices are proliferating...", they are undoubtedly including my iPhone X that does not even contain a 5G modem... they are lying.
