retrogusto

Anyone upgrading from an 11 Pro or older model shouldn’t expect it to feel especially light—it’s only 1 gram lighter than the 11 Pro, and heavier than every older non-Max iPhone. But I do hope they continue to reverse the trend of ever-heavier phones.

My two big hopes for the next iPad Pro, neither of which seems unreasonable: front camera positioned for landscape orientation, as seen on the most recent new iPad model, and rounded edges, as seen on the most recent iPhones.

I’m surprised there isn’t more mention of the fact that R&D is up by $3.66 billion (14%). It’s a big increase that shows they are working on things that they think merit an even bigger investment than usual, and generally bodes well for the future.

I’m waiting to stream it.

Apple is saying “maybe February” for a streaming release. 

Huh? Why so long?

Oscar nominations are announced on Jan 23rd and final voiding happens Feb 22. So Feb is great timing if it is nominated. 

They may also be thinking that they should wait to see if it’s likely to win some Oscars, in which case they could re-release in theaters after the Oscars, and stream after the re-release. Scorsese is among the many filmmakers who feel strongly that their films should be seen in a theater on the big screen whenever possible, so I’m sure he would want them to hold off as long as they can, and he may have some contractual commitments from the studios along those lines. 

Kind of weird that Apple could think that you would never want to use the Action button without taking the phone out of your pocket. For some things, sure, but for silencing your phone, the mute switch was already better but now even more so.
