  • Review: Button Remote for Apple TV makes entertainment simple again

    webweaselwebweasel
    Users who want to watch TV are easily overwhelmed by the device, especially if they have cognitive skills

    I'm not sure this means what you think it means AI. I think you mean if they have cognitive impairment! Or perhaps are old, or young.

    It beating an old issue but I rely on the headphone jack and the lightning port to run some pro audio apps. As long as the 6s still has the performance to run the apps well, which it still does, I’ll stay with it.
    Sounds like you need something like the Korg plugKEY MIDI adapter

    This iteration disappoints a lot of people including me. But it became clear that it wouldn't be an SE with updated tech, but an 8 with updated tech.

    Apple could have made that phone that many of us wanted, but not at $399 to open. That was never going to happen. Apple isn't really in the loss leader business. Bigger than I want, but it is a pretty good deal. Apple is making it clear that this is more about price than tech.

    It's dead, Jim. I very much doubt we'll ever see the likes of the original SE in size and form factor. I did get my hopes up with the new iPads going 'SE style'. Maybe in the fall we'll see a premium version that's smaller then this phone but overflowing with hi-test tech. But I'm not going to consider that. If it happens, it happens, which it won't.  

    This new SE isn't what I wanted. But it's still a lot of phone for the money, and there're not many Apple products where that's so obvious. The SE is dead. Long live the SE.
    I think the phone you are looking for is a few years away yet. The new SE isn’t going to be around more than 3 years. Then what? In October the iPhone 11 will replace the XR. The following year the iPhone 12 will be where XR is now. The year after that they’ll probably retire the SE and bring in a new all screen 5G budget phone when economies of scale make it sufficiently cost effective. Maybe a rehashed 12? The SE (2023)

    This is a perfect $399 phone. For those wanting a small footprint, full-screen iPhone the 5.4 inch iPhone 12 is for you. It will only be a bit larger than the original SE and smaller than the SE 2020. Apple will have something for everyone.
    In a nutshell. Though I can’t decide whether to get this or wait for the 5.4” 12. I will keep my wallet in my pocket until October I guess. We might have more idea where the economy is going by then too.
