Compared: Microsoft's Surface Pro 8 vs 12.9-inch iPad Pro
What a silly article.The Surface is a computer. Not a great computer, but an actual computer that you can install any software you want on it.The iPad is a toy, stuck in a walled garden app store.

'iPhone 15' will get in-screen Touch ID, 'iPhone Fold' arrives in 2024 says Ming-Chi Kuo
lwio said:Still sporting a Touch ID phone. How easy it to use Face ID at payment terminals etc?
It doesn't work with masks. I strongly recommend continuing to avoid it.

loopless said:What a waste of effort adding touch ID back in - I haven't missed it one little bit since I 'upgraded' to Face ID.
I haven't missed it either - because I never downgraded to the useless Face ID. And I never intend to.

Developer disputes Apple's take on 'FlickType' removal
A few things:Swipe keyboards suck. If I touch a keyboard in the wrong place and then move to the right place, I want the right letter to appear, not the wrong one followed by the right one. Having to tap delete twice for what wouldn't have even been a typo on a sane keyboard is awful. Keep that garbage off my phone and any other phone I ever have to touch.Keyboard apps should be internet sandboxed by default. NO internet access whatsoever. You're just asking to be hit with a keylogger. If a keyboard app wants internet access, the OS should put up at least three full screen, bright red, flashing, bold DANGER text confirmation dialogs before it's allowed to get it. And the dialog should have the option to delete the app, because any keyboard app asking for internet access is almost certainly malware and should be deleted.Apple's app store monopoly MUST be broken. I should be able to install software from any source of my choosing on MY iPhone. That's NOT incompatible with properly handled security in any way.
