  • Apple releases iOS 13.1.2, iPadOS 13.1.2, watchOS 6.0.1 updates

    If you are in the negative camp, then just don't update.


    I'm that guy. I just don't update my iPhone. They fix bugs and we get new bugs. Seems rather pointless.

  • Camera quality comparison: iPhone 11 versus iPhone XR

    I'd rather see a comparison between the X and the 11, since most people upgrade every 2 years, not yearly. Also, please put all photos of the XR on the left and all photos of the 11 on the right, Mixing that up confuses things...

    lol what a two completely opposite comments.
    I'll give you a 3rd one to laugh about: I don't update. Because with every update that fixes bugs new bugs get released as well. I mean, what's the bloody point? Sure, features get added as well. But that's mostly stuff I turn off after having tried them for a few days and I just don't use them. Handoff, 3D Touch, battery saver, Screen Time, Dark Mode, et cetera.

  • Review: The Apple Watch Series 5 leaves the competition in the dust

    The potential for increasing Watch sales on one end and then getting Android device users to convert to the iPhone after experiencing the Watch are revenue streams worth considering.
    Fully agree. They just supported Chromecast in the music app for Android, so anything is possible.

  • Demand for iPhone 11 outpacing supply chain expectations

    The doubling of the lead time "implies to us increased interest in the 'lower end' model that initially anticipated by Apple (...)
    Isn't that bad for stock holders, more people buying the cheaper version? Ah, AAPL dropped ,50 No biggie, but it also didn't go through the roof either.

    ALL Apple news is bad news.

    When the 5s was outselling the 5c, articles read "iPhone 5c is a failure" even though it outsold all knockoffs and the only phones outselling the 5c were made by....wait for it... APPLE.

    If iPhone 11 outsells iPhone 11 Pro, after years of these donkeys claiming "Apple is too expensiveee.." they'll type up new articles claiming "people no longer willing to pay a premium for Apple products."
    Good point! Yeah, I forgot about the 5/5s/5c. Was indeed the same, stupid view on the rise and fall of sales numbers. Oh well, one thing's for sure: I don't think Apple has any 'income worries'; their products sell. They make tons of money.
