  • Lack of updates and new models sees Apple Watch sales decline

    'declining' meaning those who want one already have it and see no reason to upgrade every year. 
    On top of that, I know many people, myself included, that won't upgrade again until the O2 sensor is reactivated.

  • iPhone owners emailed to apply for Siri privacy lawsuit's $95M settlement

    20 bucks is 20 bucks.
    Not if it’s part of this legal scam. If I’m to sell my soul it’d have to be six figures. 
    I have joined many of these class actions, but this one I'm avoiding.

    This will be great tech  but if the iPhone 18 launches with Apple’s C1 or C2 modem and not a Snapdragon it’s DOA ☺️☺️
    How so?
    Exactly. You can always rely on preposterous declarations like this to lack any support or logic. Well, considering that Apple is not going to set aside its many years of work and many billions of dollars invested to successfully produce its own modem chip (and the C1 has proven excellent so far), I guess there's no choice left for Apple other than to cancel the iPhone 18. 
    If he wants to opine that the C1 doesn't have the features of the current Qualcomm offerings for a high-end device and that the current rumors of the C2 aren't looking much better blah blah whatever, I'd be more than happy to read a thoughtful comment about why it may take Apple a few more iterations to truly be better than Qualcomm or even how Apple will not be able to beat them, but to 1) make a baseless claim about an iPhone that isn't expected to launch until 2027, and 2) use a hyperbolical "dead on arrival" claim just isn't going to cut it for me.

  • Apple may revive battery case accessory for iPhone 17 Air

    So make a really thin phone, make it thicker than a standard one by adding a fat case, but still have less battery than the standard thickness phone??? Why?! 
    DIfferent use cases? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

    There are people that want multi-day battery life on their iPhone but most don't need that. It's like wanting a 1000 mile EV for cross country trips. That would be great, but most only need their EV to be a reliable commuter.
