  • Apple plans offering more advertising to users via apps

    Second richest company in the world with unbelievable margins of around 40%+ and they want to nickel and dime their users like this. 

    Does Tim Cook’s greed know no bounds?

    Shit like this is what will start to kill the golden goose.

  • What to expect from Apple's iPhone 14 event on September 7

    “ a pill-and-hole cutout, significantly reducing how much of the display is wasted by the onboard TrueDepth camera array”

    Based on the renders it’s still all
     basically dead space, personally I’d prefer they stick to a notch and try and downsize it a bit again.

    My iPhone XS Max has developed the dreaded green line of death on the display, so I’ll be upgrading. Hopefully the camera updates this year are as good as the rumour mill is expecting.

    Price increases will make them a tough sell for the rest of the world.

    The USD is massively inflated at the moment, so the two combined could be as much as a 30% price gouge for people outside of the US.
    Or it could mean people hold onto their phones much longer after paying them off.
    Same result either way, less iPhones sold.

  • Rumored Apple Watch Pro could cost $900

    I love my Series 6 Apple Watch. I frequently find myself leaving my iPhone at home when I’m out and about. The Apple Watch paired with some AirPods Pro really do make the phone redundant for a lot of my day.

    I do find myself wishing that the battery life was better and that it wasn’t as tethered to the iPhone as it is. When doing a 6 hour hike I find I have to take my iPhone with me because using the GPS for routes and Bluetooth on my Apple Watch just kills the battery too fast.

    If they released a bigger Apple Watch with a much better battery I’d seriously consider upgrading. Not sure I’d go the £900 route though. I mean the current Series 7 45MM with Cellular is £499, I’m not sure how they could justify £400 more, a £100 more, sure, but £400…… I just don’t see it.
