    Oh, and they'll have an SE model, a Plus, a Max, a Pro, a Pro Max, an Ultra, an Ultra Pro, and Ultra Pro Max and an Ultra Pro Max Plus. 
    Isn’t that exactly what all carmakers do? You have the GMC Yukon, Yukon XL, Yukon Denali, SLE, SLT, AT4…
    Yes, and that's why they had to get rid of Oldsmobile and Pontiac...too many similar models, too much overlap. They're all exactly the same damn car with different grilles and price tags. Almost went bankrupt, didnt they?

    I was ALWAYS a loyal GM guy since my very first car, no matter how many issues i had. But ever since I tried other models, I realized just how far behind the times they really were. I would never own another American car. They lost their way in the mid-70's. Apple lost their way when they restrained Jony Ives' resources and let him go. It's too bad Tim Cook isn't infatuated with his own companies products like Steve was.

  • iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Plus rumored to get Always-On and ProMotion displays

    Sheesh, its about time for the 120 hz display. Others have only been putting those in their mid range phones for the past 12 years.

    And honestly, after comparing the 14 Pro Max I had to the Samsung S22 Ultra I just bought, I'm not so sure Apple's screens are 120 hz. Maybe 90 at best. 

    I don't understand why Apple takes so long to adopt certain technologies. So long, that I moved on...after 14 years of being a loyal Apple customer. I knew the moment I found out Jony Ive had checked out that Apple wasn't gonna be the same. But i stuck around anyway. In the end, I was right. They've been going down hill since the iPhone 7. I was so close to upgrading to the 15 Pro Max. I'm glad I didn't. So many issues. I'm enjoying my 2 year old refurbished Samsung more than my past 4 new iPhones.
