  • Apple Studio Display update may arrive a year later than expected

    I wonder if they'd bump the size up to a 30" display? I would be nice to see 120Hz ProMotion. Or, perhaps they'll offer the same 27" Studio Display for a cheaper price ($1199 or something like that) and then offer a more expensive 30" Studio Display and then obviously the XDR display for a lot more. I would really like to have (2) 27" Studio Displays but I also don't wanna spend $3500 on displays lol. They'd be a lot better than the cheaper LG 27" 2k displays I have now. 
    A couple of 4K displays (they're a dime a dozen nowadays) would be a lot better than your 2K displays. 
    I already have an ASD, next to a much cheaper 4K Lenovo 28".  I really would like a 2nd one but even at refurb prices find it expensive in 2025 for what it is.

    120Hz is just not important to many of us. I don's spend my time trying to read the fine print while scrolling and I am not a gamer.  
    I want Apple displays not some cheap looking POS 4k display on my desk. That was the point. I want Apple Displays. I'd rather have what I have than a panel that is 4K just to have 4K. Not all panels are creatred equal and yeah they're a dime a dozen because most are very poor panels.

     Highly unlikely to be a 30” display since Apple maintains a 218 ppi with a 5k display being 27” while the 6k is 32”.  A 30” would mean a 5.5k display (weird) or Apple would need to drop the ppi to 196 and neither seems plausible.  
    But is it really all that weird? The iMac is a 4.5K display. Apple could release a larger XDR display at a higher resolution, leaving room for a 30" display.

  • Tim Cook teases Feb. 19 launch of what is probably the new iPhone SE

    From the way he said it, it makes it sound like it's a new product, not just a refresh of an existing product. Unless they're renaming the iPhone SE to something else and he's just calling it a new product to the Apple family.

  • Why Apple won't buy TikTok, even to attract younger users

    I don't see where buying TikTok would be in Apple's best interest anyways. They already have young buyer's interests when it comes to Apple products. There's not a lot of good for Apple that would come from purchasing TikTok. The negatives far outweigh any possible positives.
