    iPhone Folio/Wallet Case with Removable Shell for 16 Pro Max

    For many years now I've been using the BookBook line of cases from Twelve South. They offered the best of both worlds in that you have both a folio/wallet, and the iPhone is in a removable shell so that even without being in the folio case it's still protected. I just found out that Twelve South...

    Upgraded from M1 to M3 Max - any recommendations on best settings and apps?

    Long live the Touch Bar… Afterward, I had a good wine with some cheese regarding the pitfall of Apple’s creativity in the design of laptops. It looks like every other professional laptop now :( But the screen is absolutely gorgeous. It makes the monitor I have next to it look so bad… I just...

    Macbook Air M1: Monitor Recommendations

    Hello Everybody, I recently bought a Macbook Air M1 and I'm looking for a monitor, as I connected it to the monitor I have on my desktop (LG 28UM59-P) and I was disappointed with the resolution. My budget is at most 500€. I'm located in Greece, so I can purchase it from local stores or Amazon...

    Thunderbolt/USB C hub recommendations for the new iMacs (2021)

    The new iMacs only have USB C ports, and my purposes include some legacy USB 3 hardware and an SD card slot. Many existing hubs/docks seem to cater to MacBooks with redundant features like: VGA/DVI output… gross, don't need that; Ethernet input, which the iMac already has built into the power...

    Keyboard Mouse Alternatives to Logitch

    I took the plunge and got Logi K860 Ergo keyboard and a MX Master 3 mouse to use with Mac mini and a PC. Love the build quality and ergo design of both. Much better than Apple Keyboard and Magic Mouse. But neither device can work with Mac over Bluetooth after reboot. Obscure Logitech support...

    I know I’m a little (a lot) late to the party, but I have a question about AirPods

    I first got AirPods when the 2nd generation first came out. I was so excited when I got them, they were everything I ever wished for. Perfect for soccer game warmups, for a quick listen, or when I’m on the train on the way to work. Now the problem was that they would be loose in my ear, more...

    "Loved" Tracks vs. Listening Habits

    Curious if anyone has noticed Apple Music recommendations improve as a result of "loving" tracks. Up until recently, I never "loved" tracks, but Apple's recommendations haven't seemed to improve either. Does anyone use this functionality and if so, does it seem to make a difference?

    2012 iMac external ssd boot drive

    I’ve been reading up on the advantages of booting from a ssd. I’m not comfortable cracking my 2012 iMac open, so external seems the best route for me. There have been several threads like this, but not for a few months. I just wanted to see if anyone had updated recommendations for equipment...

    Photo app with magnetic/lasso

    I’m looking for a photo editing app that can do lasso and/or magnetic selection. I hear good things about Affinity Photo but that's only on iPad. I have Camera+ and ProCam but neither has this functionality. Pixelmator is close but it's magnetic tool isn't very accurate. Any recommendations?
