    All iPads Is getting iPad worth it?

    I am looking into buying an iPad, either iPad 9th gen (350€) or second hand Air 4 (420€). I already have MacBook Air M1, that I am 100% happy with, mostly I do Uni work, read PDFs, Excel work and content consumption. But I am thinking that maybe iPad can do PDF annotation better and is more...

    Universal Baseball Golf Scores - Did your team birdie?

    I made this app a while ago but just recently updated it for this season. Essentially, it's an app that breaks 162 games of the MLB season into 18 holes. Which is every 9 games. I decided that in order to make the playoffs, the best shot is a 90-72 win season. As such, you want to go 5-4...

    Other Apple needs to admit they were wrong and go back to Touch ID

    It takes courage to admit a mistake. Face ID was a mistake. The notch is not going away any time soon because of it. Face ID is worse than in screen Finger print reader. You don’t save any time because you still have to swipe the screen up in order to reach your Home Screen. also there is the...

    macOS Big Sur: improving our productivity, or feeding us frills and eye candy?

    I'm currently on macOS Catalina, and have been reviewing the new features that Apple touts for macOS Big Sur. I'm seriously wondering: does Big Sur offer any significant improvements to productivity? Any noteworthy and truly helpful improvements to the user experience? Is the UI really that much...

    Lite WatchOS

    Is it just me or do a lot of you all think a lot of folks could benefit from a lite watchOS option? Not only for older devices but for those who just don’t need/want all the extras. I bought my watch with the intention of using all the time and now I use it to read text without pulling my phone...

    The case for iMessage on other platforms

    Since Facebook has been trying to look like they care about privacy, I feel like it is the best time for Apple to make iMessage with Facetime available on a lot more platforms. Find a way to monetize it. Integrate photo backups and sell iCloud storage for example. Make an in-app Store and allow...

    Books on iOS 12 (Issues with Design)

    Just looking to vent a little bit. Some of you may agree with me, but the majority of you will probably think I'm making mountains out of molehills. That's okay. Does anyone else find it troublesome that the Books app in iOS 12 conflates the Library and Bookstore functions? The last few...

    How big is the difference between the Old and new GPU on MacBook Pro 15’?

    Just like what the title say. I’m really curious as to how big would be the difference between the Radeon Pro 560X versus the Radeon Vega? Because I have a new laptop coming tomorrow, but if the difference between the two is huge, I’m thinking of just returning what I purchased and wait for the...

    Tablets Google Pixel Slate vs iPad Pro? (with keyboard)

    In looking at a portable WORK solution, I'm considering the new Pixel Slate with keyboard, vs an iPad Pro with keyboard. The keyboard experience really matters to me. A lot. But so does multitasking and real productivity. A good browser. Chrome extensions. Speed. I have an iPad Pro 12.9. I...

    Other Everyone Talking about XS/Max Pricing as if the XR Doesn't Exist...

    Since the keynote the internet has basically been in an uproar about how expensive the XS (particularly the XS Max) is, but what did people expect? Apple wasn't going to lower the price of the XS to slot the Max in at last year's X pricing. And the reason for that is because Apple has the XR to...

    HELP. Red,Taupe, or Charcoal Grey?

    I've been going back and forth with these three colors for about three weeks and I can't seem to choose which one I should get. I can get the Red for about $40 and the Charcoal Grey for $42. So I'm more drawn to those two at the moment. However, Im not sure what they will look like after a few...

    Cross-Platform browser recommendation?

    I use a combination of macOS , Windows, and Linux operating systems at work and home. My employer locks down the computers so that you can only use what they allow - Chrome, Firefox ( not Quantum ) , and Microsoft Edge. Out of these I can run only Firefox or Chrome on all platforms. I've...

    A month or so out, whats your thoughts on iOS 11 on iPhone X iOS 11?

    I just updated to iOS 11.2 I like 11 but it does appear to have some bugs, and I'm absolutely not impressed with notification centre. To be honest I'd rather a swipe up from the bottom to take me to to the widget centre, rather than swiping up to go to the home screen and then swipe right (or...

    I have a friend who has the iPhone 7 Plus (black, 128) who is willing to sell it to me for $400. Excellent condition. I currently have the 6 Plus and was just wanting some thoughts/opinions on if you would jump on this or wait it out until the new iPhone8EditionPro Product (red) comes out.
