    iPad Air Can’t have crap in the desert, I guess.

    Brand new iPad Air 2022, not even a month old and already have microscopic hairline scratches about as wide/deep as the thin hairs on my arm. Worst part is, they occurred whilst cleaning my screen to install a screen protector using the wipes that they gave me. I’m upset. I have heard that it’s...

    MacBook Pro 2016 15 Inch Fan Noise

    Is there anyway I can open the macbook and clean the fans myself or should I get it serviced? I noticed that even when idling that it makes more noise as opposed to when it had a year for example. I suspect it may be due to dust. Thank you in advance.

    Just noticed this today when I took some quick photos of an Osprey plane flying over - 2, 3 specs in every shot, same spot with the overcast sky. Anyone else have (or had) this issue? Main question, does Apple Care take care of this? Thanks! ** It's minimal, I realize that...but it...

    Dust

    Let’s say that after 6 months I want to clean my MBP(2019) from dust. Will I void any warranty when I open up de back to clean it? I read this was okay with older Macbooks, but I’m not sure with the new ones. It would suck if it voids warranty.

    iPhone X IPhone X camera dust

    I've notice a small speck of dust spear on my bottem camera. It wasn’t there to begin with so I’m slightly worried there’s something wrong with the seal around my camera. Is this normal on the X?
