  • Tim Cook sees AirPods Pro as a complement to AirPods, not a replacement

    cy_starkmancy_starkman
    Way overpriced considering they only last about 2 years or so before the batteries fail to recharge and become disposable trash....and the mediocre sound quality does not justify the price.  But they are really working that 'Pro' word into their advertising...diminishing it with every new product release.
    Apple won’t replace the batteries? I never thought about that with my Beats X... have i really purchased land fill?

    edit: below info

    sounded like fud and it is fud

  • EU regulators query retailers over Apple Pay antitrust concerns

    cy_starkmancy_starkman
    such angry comments, as if people were being personally damaged by this.

    my only question is what is all this about retailer agreements. apple pay can be used on any tap to pay system anywhere, in any shop.

    my local privately owned corner store does not have an agreement with apple.

    I wonder how expensive these tiles will be; I bet it'll be a subscription of sorts.
    @gutengel ;

    i doubt from apple’s viewpoint they need to sub you in to make the monies. this is simply leveraging the existing find my service and will make users even more integrated with Apple, ensuring recurring purchases.

    simply said, does apple need to make you sub to a tile when it is making you sub to recurring iphones and macs. we will lose the tiles over time, that will be sub enough.

    sounds like an internal facebook api for advanced targeted advertising.

    that was lame.

    i came expecting a technical article about processor design, maybe a detail on the incredible power management abilities, differences in neural architecture and other factors like sensors, security, encryption, codecs in hardware.,,
    I see from your forum posts count that you are not new here. Yet you saw the article is marked as EDITORIAL, was written by DED and still you were expecting a factual comparison on tech specs...?
    he has from time to time gone into mind numbing detail about more technical or historical aspects of a product or system.

    not often i grant you.
