  • Volvo to focus on value adds outside the infotainment system, will leave CarPlay alone

    Hopefully they're adding physical buttons back too. I test drove an XC40 a couple years ago while car shopping and had to quickly nix it from the list after trying to adjust the fan speed. The salesperson suggested I try voice control. Not likely. All touchscreen and voice control has been proven to be more distracting than physical knobs.

  • Leaked cases show off iPhone 15 Pro design changes in detail

    How anyone would benefit from a mute switch that no longer shows its status at a glance is beyond me, but if these rumors are true, hopefully the wisdom will become evident when the phones are announced and released.
    I haven't moved my mute switch from the mute position since I got the phone. I've had all my various iPhones on mute for probably at least 10 years now, only very rarely changing it momentarily. I strongly believe that the majority of people are the same, especially all but the older generations. 

    Agreed. They can remove the mute switch entirely as far as I'm concerned. Most people in my world also leave their phones on silent/vibrate entirely.

  • Even with so many demonstrated use cases, Apple Vision Pro might not yet have a purpose

    I think we're also going to see the iPhone adopt another camera so that it can take Spatial Videos and Photos. If everyone is making them, more people will want to see them through the Vision Pro. Maybe there is a way to see them on the phone too by moving the phone around the photo/video.

  • Apple Fitness+ review: Two years later, barely treads water

    I just bought an indoor bike so I was getting ready to sign up for Fitness+ again, but this review may have changed my mind with just one sentence: "You cannot filter workouts by exercise equipment". I want to be able to filter "20 minute bike workouts". I have zero interest in scrolling through waves of screens to find what I'm looking for. If anyone knows different, I'd love to know.
    You can specifically select/filter bike workouts. There are different categories like running, cycling, yoga, hiit, etc.

    I disagree with a lot of this article. Like someone else said, TikTok is a joke and I would never conisider a Peloton. Apple Fitness+ is definitely a nice middle ground.

  • GoPro Hero 10 action cam unveiled with 5.3K video, 23MP stills

    Can anyone's internet connection even handle that quality of video?
    I’d guess that it’s compressed enough that it’ll be fine for most connections.
