  • iPhone 14 will get 48MP camera sensor, folding lens arriving with iPhone 15

    As for the comment regarding the megapixel bump only for marketing.  I will leave this here.  This phone was released in 2013, has a 41 mp camera, and still holds it's own today against 2021 flagships. So, if apple is going to use a 48mp camera,  I am going to go out on a very small limb and say the images from that sensor will be amazing. I will go out on an even shorter limb and state that this will be a turning point for iPhone pictures.

    It is Anti-Apple together group. In USA, people mostly younger fills entitled to have more without working hard over years. USA needs big time longer recession so people gets back to basics and understand that workers union, protest, walk out so don't have to work is not normal in rest of the world. People in countries don't work hard but support socialism and free benefits are bankrupts and living with lower quality of life.
    I am trying to understand what you are saying here.  Are you saying that countries that support socialist practices like free healthcare, education and things like that are going bankrupt, and the citizens are living a lower quality of life?  If so, you are 100 percent incorrect in that assumption.

    Don't like the conditions and your employer isn't breaking the law? Have conviction and quit. Walking off the job is a very different thing than a protest. By all means protest. Walk off the job? See you at the unemployment office.
    Disagree pretty much entirely.  Be the change you want to see in the world, don't just turn your back on it.
    You have to realise what company they are fighting. Most people here are "apple can do no wrong" types.  I am supporting the workers 100 percent. Just as I support the Amazon workers taking a stand.  Terrible working conditions are terrible working conditions no matter what company it is.  Most people here think apple's farts smell like roses and baby powder. They are a megacorporation who do not care about anything other than the almighty dollar. End of story.
    Yeah, I’ve jumped from forum to forum and it’s always the same. Apple Cult is a real thing.
    So are trolls.
    It's not Trolling if it's the truth.  :D

    Apple gear is so easy to set up these days I can see them using vending machines to dispense boxes and a few robots to answer questions in the near future at Apple Stores. I'd far rather insert my Apple card and have a new iPhone of my choice pop out than have to go through the hassle they have in the Apple Stores now. The same goes for most of the stuff they sell now.
    Not just apple products either.  Everything should be like that. I only buy my phones at the carrier. Most times now I will get them sent to us. If the new iPhone 14 is what they are leaking, I will probably buy two direct from apple this time.  Bypass the contract nonsense. But being on both sides of the fence when it comes to the labor force, I will back the the employees EVERYTIME.  I was a business owner of two highly successful construction companies. I always treated my employees with great respect as they were the ones ultimately making my profit for me.  If I had a good year, I made sure they had a good year. I even gave my foreman for my steel crew a new travel trailer. That's how you keep a work force happy. I took over the business from my father and that foreman was with us since 1982. We sold the business when the landscape of the industry changed here. Compound in my son was born with autism and I wanted to stay home close to him.

    My advice to these employees is, go learn a skilled trade. You can make all the money you’ll ever need and don’t even need to take out a school loan. Get out of retail, it’s a dead end, just like restaurants. Yeah, you might need to get dirty, work outside, in the cold or blazing heat, but in the end it’s an honest living, and skilled trades of all types are in desperate need of younger workers. 
    Union Fire Sprinkler Pipe fitters hard work great pay benefits
    Yes, Union.  First thing, if something like this happend to union workers, they would be doing the EXACT same thing these apple workers are doing.
