  • Feds seize $400,000 worth of counterfeit Apple devices

    Even Amazon sells Apple counterfeit products….the good thing is it’s easy to return. Beware, there are even fake rice, now imagine that, unfortunately it came

  • Nomad 130W GaN Power Adapter review: Plenty of USB-C power for 3 devices

    These new GAN chargers all have the same design flaw:  they’re too heavy and easily slip out of the power socket. There should be a small cord between the brick and the outlet to prevent that from happening. 
    Agreed…..Hello extension chords

  • Three iPhone 15 models rumored to get Thunderbolt/USB4 connector

    "This suggests that multiple models within the iPhone 15 series will support Thunderbolt/USB4's high-speed 40Gbps data transmission,"

    What are people doing on their iPhones that would benefit from 40Gbps data transmission bandwidth?
    Other than charging? Haven’t used cable for data transfers for yearssssss

  • USB-C in iPhone 15 is all but certain as more components surface

    "Law changes in the European Union and to a lesser extent now Saudi Arabia too, mean that Apple will be forced to switch to USB-C and the only doubt has been about how soon."

    Geez, this has never been in doubt. Sure, the law doesn't take effect until 2024, but If Apple didn't make the the switch to USB-C this year on the 15, then it wouldn't have been able to offer the 15 in Europe as a cheaper carryover model next year when the iPhone 16 debuts. And these "leaked" photos of what the USB-C port looks like are inane. It looks like the same port we've seen for almost a decade since it debuted in 2014. This USB-C "news" really reeks of desperation for SOMETHING to talk about when it comes to iPhone 15.

    A far more interesting take on Apple and USB-C can be found over on Macworld, with an article that delves into how iPhone's transition to USB-C won't solve Apple's Lightning mess, with so many current products STILL using the 11-year-old connector, thereby guaranteeing that we'lll need to keep Lightning cables around for years to come. 
    Of course, a lot of Apple products w lightning connectivity will be around for a long time. USB-C are now mostly on new Apple products so the Hares cannot hold up any longer.
