Never been a fan of docks that require drivers as they don't always keep up with latest OS updates. I'll stick to OWC or CalDigit for docks.

I hope it performs better than Tesla's implementation of the phone being your car key. My friend has a Tesla 3 and his most hated thing about the car is how unreliable getting in and out of his car has been when using the phone, especially if he is on a current phone call. He often times has to hang up, then the car will unlock, then he can call the person back. The solution to this is to include a keyfob for those who want to use it, but Tesla sells that separately on the Model 3.

Still waiting for the Apple Store to stock the unlocked iPhone X. :-/

I just bought my business partner a full priced, unlocked Verizon model and he popped his ATT SIM card in. Unlike a few weeks ago, you can now buy an iPhone at the Apple Store without connecting a carrier. You still need to choose the Verizon model, but nothing else needs to be done after purchase besides popping in your SIM.

While this monitor is gorgeous, it has been a disaster for the clients I had who bought them. I am no longer recommending them, nor are the Apple Stores I've worked with. Below are the problems I've seen on 4 separate monitors:

- Flickering due to wifi. We sent our first monitor in to be fixed with the extra shielding but the problem still happened after it came back. We ended up returning it.
- Kernel panics when connecting TB3 and/or waking up from sleep (seen this on 4 separate monitors)
- Display brightness arbitrarily turns down to the lowest setting, giving the appearance that it is off
- USB post on the back are not always recognized when hooking back up via TB3, forcing the user to unplug and plug back in the USB cables.

I know not everyone may have these issues, but we'll see countless references of them on Apple's review page, Apple discussion boards, and other places where people discuss these issues. Luckily this monitor has been such a disaster that it has reminded Apple that they need to make monitors again which they've confirmed they are working on for the future.

Our LG had the problem and we sent it back to them to be repaired and just came back the other day. After plugging it in, after about 10 minutes it started flickering again and wouldn't stop. We also had issues with a wired keyboard and mouse not being active after plugging in the TB3 cable to the MBP. You'd have to unplug and plug back in the USB cable.

All in all been real dissapointed in this monitor, already working with Apple to get this returned even though it's well beyond the 14 day return policy.
