    iPhone 13 mini Do the iPhone & Case Magnets Attract Everyday Magnetic Items?

    I'm trying to decide if I should get a Magsafe case or not. I'm wondering if iPhone 13's magnets are specialized enough to not attract everyday magnetic items, or if it can stick to the fridge, stainless steel, various metals in the garage, attract paper clips, etc. What about the Magsafe...

    iPad Pro Magnetically Hanging on Wall (New 12.9" Photo)

    FYI, the new iPad Pro has so many strong magnets that you can hang it on a vertical metal surface. It feels like a moderately strong hold, too. I imagine this would also work on a fridge.

    Trivia: When did Apple move the screen magnets from the side to the top of Macbook Air/Pro models?

    I'm doing some research and am putting this question out to all the Mac trivia/history buffs on the forum. You may know that at some point in Macbook history, Apple moved the "sleep-inducing" magnets from the side to the top of the screen. Here's proof the side magnets existed...

    Magnet strength of the Smart Keyboard vs Smart Cover

    I own both the Smart Cover and Smart Keyboard for my 12.9" iPad Pro. I notice the side magnet attachment on the Smart Cover is much stronger that my Smart Keyboard is. Has anyone else who has both noticed this, or do I possibly have defective magnets on the Smart Keyboard? Thanks
