    The camera and AI camera features on the 7 Pro were amazing, i’m looking forward to watching reviews of this

     their Video enhancement feature also looks promising and may even finally be able to compete with the iPhone’s video

    that’s kinda crazy. imagine buying a 50k Mac Pro in 2019 and not be able to develop on it, for a platform the same company makes, just four years later… 

    The Vision Pro didn't exist in 2019, at least not in the public domain, so purchasing decisions based on what was coming in 4 years are completely irrelevant.

    Do you make technology purchasing decisions today based on four years from now? The best we can hope for is continued compatibility, and clearly the Vision Pro has such high technical requirements, compiling on an Intel-based system just is not feasible, in Apple's eyes.

    Or would this be considered forced obsolescence? 🤣
    It did exist. They’ve been working on it for the past 8 years. I think Mike Rockwell said it.

     Also they made the developer beta work on Intel up until now…

  • Undercharged: iPhone 14 owners complain about lower battery endurance

    Mine says it's at 93% capacity, and I acquired my iPhone 14 Pro in September 2022. So it's less than 1 year old. I have noticed that at the end of the day I have to charge it where it used to make it through the day without a second thought. I'm not sure what changed, but something is really dragging on the battery, so if a bunch of other people are experiencing the same thing then yeah, sounds like there's a problem.
    Like the article says, Apple expects about 10% per year. You're doing slightly better than the average of what Apple expects and plans for.

    There are loads of variables as it pertains to battery charging and life, and most of them are outside of the user's control. Some of them are even outside of Apple's control.
    10% per year seems quite a lot to me as my four-and-a-half year old XS Max is at 79%.
