    Of course the iPhone 15 will have USB-C! So will the next AirPods. In fact, the Apple Watch 7 and up chargers already have a USB-C connector. Why wouldn't they save millions of dollars dropping that proprietary lightning connector on just one device?
    Because it is a better connector and they get a fee for certification on every cable sold. 
    Good point on the certification fees, but please provide the empirical metrics proving Lightning is better than USB-C.

  • Leaker jumps on iPhone 15 thin bezel bandwagon with questionable images

    To me it looks exactly like the one AI showed by a "reliable" source yesterday.

  • Apple TV+ unveils trailer for urban horror series, 'The Changeling'

    I'm sure it will be another big moneymaker for Apple TV+. But the biggest moneymaker is going to come in the fall season, as people with only basic cable find there's nothing but reruns on the networks, and start to go with streaming services. They'll all benefit from it, including Apple. It may not be new new, but it will be new to them.

  • Apple Pay launches in Vietnam

    That is weird. I was in Vietnam for 4 days last month and used Apple Pay at my hotel to settle my bill. It all worked flawlessly and that is before this forum post about Apple Pay launching in Vietnam. I also tried to use it at Uniglo in Hanoi, Vietnam, whose card readers supported NFC, but it didn't work. I chalk that one up not to Uniqlgo not supporting AP, but because I used a foreign credit card. Some countries dont accept foreign credit cards regardless of them being Mastercard or Visa.
    LOL! When I was in Vietnam, no one took Apple Pay! Or any credit cards for that matter. They took these, though…
