    Will I have to talk faster now? Will speed dial take less than the quarter second it does now on my 2020 SE? Will I be able to watch a two hour movie in one hour?

    It's a PHONE, not a supercomputer, or a game console.
    I sorta get the faux-outrage, but for many, their "phone" is their only device. They do indeed use it as a computer and a game console.

    The real question is what will Apple use this additional performance capability for?
    Exactly right. But it's worth remembering that Apple keeps upping the processor horsepower of the iPad with no real use for it other than marketing. 
    I'm not completely sure about this, as it seems reasonable to invest in chip improvements, and when they are available, use them as widely across the entire product line. Why have assembly lines for multiple products when one can make all the necessary components for all products? But as other have commented, I don't see this minor upgrade as a selling point to upgrade from 14 to 15. That said...it *is* a selling point for me, as I will be going to the 15 from my current Xr. I expect a noticeable upgrade in overall performance...even if I am not making movies or photoshopping on it.
    Making movies or Photoshopping on a phone? Seems like an exercise in eye (and thumb) torture!

    Wonder if anyone is researching the long term implications of turning over important decision making to machines. Hope so.

  • Tim Cook may be launching Apple VR headset earlier than engineers want

    All well and good, but so far I've seen nothing in the AR/VR world of hardware that would remotely resemble an Apple design aesthetic. And that includes the artist renderings of Apple's rumored product(s).

    Seems like if you want to use any of them, Apple or not, you're going to look like a total geek. And by that I mean the traditional town drunk who was hired by the traveling circus to squat in a pit and bite the heads off chickens while muttering and screaming unintelligibly, being billed as "The Wild Man of Borneo." Not a computer expert.

  • This could be the first real leak of Apple VR headset components

    These photos come under the category of "phantom ware" or "ghostware."
    Don't put any stock into the implications presented in the article. Just wait for the official Apple press release. Everything else is worthless speculation.
