MacBook Pro with SD card slot, no Touch Bar coming in 2021
longpath said:For the life of me, I can’t understand why anyone is assuming that a return of MagSafe means a return of either of the old MagSafe connectors when we know for a fact that neither of them are used in MagSafe on iPhones. Indeed, given the sequence in time, I submit that it’s vastly more likely that this leak is more likely to mean some iteration of the current MagSafe tech, which is consistent with a recent Apple patent that showed MagSafe charging pads in the palm rests for charging an iPhone. -
Apple plans thinner, high-end MacBook Air

AirPods Max review: it's not easy to justify the price
Only Apple would make headphones without a headphone jack, without a power switch, with cloth that will get dirty, worn out, and hard to clean, and cripple the control of your music when you use their $35 wired cable for better audio.
Didn't AI recently have an article on how to disable the automatic device switching because it is annoying when the AirPods switch to another device without your control? Like when they automatically switch to your Mac when you wanted to keep listening on your iPhone?
I have the Sony MX3s and they are amazing. Excellent sound quality, excellent ANC, fold into a compact hard case, wired connection included, USB-C, excellent controls by swiping on the right ear (or covering the right ear to turn off ANC temporarily), customizable software in the Sony app, and zero issues with Bluetooth connection or wired (preferred for better audio), and all for over $200 less.
You nailed it with this review. Mediocre sound quality (typical of all Apple sound products) and not good enough to justify the $549 price. Apple could have had something if they were $349 or less to compete with Bose and Sony, but no audiophile will buy these headphones if that was the market they were hoping for. Audiophiles or recording artists do not listen to Bluetooth audio. -
