  • iPhone 16 Pro users face random freezes and repeated restarts

    Well, I’d love to comment, though I’ve been waiting for my Pro Max since September 15. Estimated delivery was October 4.

  • Flagship smartphone showdown - Apple iPhone 15 Pro vs Google Pixel 9 Pro

    We’ve reached the point where the specs are close enough that they don’t matter.  You can’t have a gear to head and then say you’re evaluating it in a platform independent way. The platform is everything.  Apple’s image processing, and “ the whole is greater than the sum of its parts” approach literally affects everything one does with a smart phone.  It ends up coming down to design, preferences , and OS preference.  Personally, I use both iOS and android almost every day. Android absolutely sucks next to iOS in my opinion. So there’s no way I would even consider an android phone unless I had to.   

    As an aside, i’m not really sure for whom these articles are written. This isn’t a technology blog or consumer report site. It’s called AppleInsider. Is anyone consulting AppleInsider to see if they should buy an iPhone or a Google pixel? I really doubt it. It seems to me articles like this or nothing but revenue drivers.

    Why are we going backwards on weight? The light weight of the 15 Pro for me is its best feature.  
    Because it’s insignificant especially compared to the features they are prioritizing, like a bigger battery, screen, etc.  The difference  is 4 grams.  You wouldn’t feel 10 times that difference

  • New Music & audio enhancements plus a mysterious 'Passthrough' feature are coming at WWDC

    I’ll tell you what, I’ll forego every single one of those features if Apple can figure out how not to have the music app automatically start playing when I connect to my car’s Bluetooth. It doesn’t even matter if I quit the app first. It’s absolutely infuriating.

  • Jon Stewart became a problem for Apple TV+

    I watched one episode.  The show was unwatchable.  They couldn’t decide if it was funny or serious, so it was neither. It was straight up leftist propaganda.  Filled with inaccuracies and half truths.  And I’m the kind of person who can watch and enjoy content that has the opposite POV I have. I couldn’t stomach this.
