    iPad Air Airdrop Problems

    I've had an m4 mini for some but not real familiar with it, just use for music. I have a new ipad air and want to send files in both directions. I'm attaching it to emails right now. I tried using air drop but it says no contacts, or everybody doesn't show anyone. Do I need to make it a new...

    Let's honestly talk about current iOS state (coming from OCD person hah)

    TL;DR I’m a bit of a perfectionist so perhaps I’m being overly sensitive but are others experiencing these micro-stutters and audio pops on iOS 26? I’m using an iPhone 17 Pro Max and for the price the random lag in Safari and social media, along with clicking sounds in the Music app, are really...

    Other Eliminating the Camera Bump: A "Side-Mounted Camera" Proposal for Foldable iPhone

    Hi everyone, As an iPhone 12 user, I feel like the current camera bump has reached its limit. I miss the "smart" precision and flat beauty of the iPhone 5. For a future foldable iPhone, I propose a "Side-Mounted Camera System" located on the side frame (beneath the side buttons). Why this...

    Help me decide: Base vs 36 GB

    Hi guys, I need help choosing a configuration for my new Mac M3 Pro. I'm thinking about getting the M3 Pro 16" base model (18/512), but I'm wondering if that will be enough to support my work and college assignments for the next 5 years or so. Do you think I should upgrade to 36/1TB

    M1 Pro 8/14 core vs M2?

    Okay so this is what I'm really wondering. I'm surprised no one is really discussing this. We obviously know that the 10/16 core m1 pro will be significantly more powerful than the m2, but what about the binned m1 pro? How do y'all think the 8/14 m1 pro will compare to the 8/10 m2...

    M1 Pro and M1 Max slower than Intel

    It seems like the findings for the past several months have been that m1 pro/max have slower raw cpu performance than the latest intel alder lake chips. This interesting because the standard M1 outperformed basically everything in its class, while these new macbooks don't. I have a couple of...

    MagSafe charger is bulky

    I'm using a 16inch m1, I find I still enjoy using a type c 96w charger that comes with an old intel MacBook, type c is more simple, this is really not a downgrade..

    I have a few questions concerning the 16” MBP

    So I purchased one recently and noticed a few things: 1- When I shut it down, any keyboard key press turns it on.. even clicking the trackpad. Is this normal? Note that it is shut down not just put to sleep. 2- Heard that the trackpad doesn’t actually move and that it needs power to give you...

    iPad Pro iPad Pro redesign thoughts

    OK, this is a little long, but hear me out. At WWDC 2017 Apple unveiled the new iPad Pro alongside a revamped version of iOS specifically for iPad. This was one of the biggest changes to the iPad UI since inception. While it is still a far cry from macOS, it made it a lot more useful for...

    iPad Pro What could Apple add to iPad to make it truly "Pro"?

    I thought it would be interesting to start a discussion about what Apple would need to add to the iPad Pro for you to consider it a "Pro" device, or for it to replace your laptop. Currently, if I needed an ultra-portable machine I'd buy a MacBook. I need apps like Toon Boom Studio, Adobe...
