    12" MacBook V1 Gold vs. V2 Gold vs. 13" M1 Gold (is the V2 gold different than the M1 Gold?)

    Hi hope all are well! As you can see here the 12" MacBook had two "Golds", the V1 Gold and the V2 gold, which was very short in production. Very interesting to me as it's a lesser known fact. Then, we saw gold on the airs and M1s forward. So the main question here is, is the V2 gold or 'warm...

    iPad Pro iPad Pro M4 sharpens picture during peak brightness?

    I was using my 11in iPad Pro M4 in direct sunlight today and noticed that the picture looked oddly sharpened. This was especially apparent when viewing photos in the photos app but other UI elements appeared to have overly crisp edges like most HDTVs as well. What’s more is I noticed that if you...

    12" 2017 MacBook - base vs max performance

    I love the 12" MacBook. I know the keyboard sucks. But I really love the rest (and don't actually mind the keyboard all that much). I have a 2017 base model that I got used, but was thinking of upgrading to the max spec model (i7, 16gb ram). My question is - how much faster would this max...

    There is not a problem with modern Macs and "4K scaling"

    I have posted this information so many times now in forums and on video comments that I put together some wise words from a Mac video hardware expert (not myself) and accounts of my own, personal experience with my somewhat odd, 4K-like display (~140dpi) that needs to be scaled like a 4K...

    Upgrading non-retina iMac with a Retina display?

    My 21.5" 2013 iMac has a decidedly non-Retina (1080p) display. It works great on unsupported Big Sur, but clearly Apple is no longer optimizing visual elements (like Control Center) for non-Retina displays. By using a 21.5" 2015 or even 2017 panel, I am thinking it may be possible to upgrade the...

    Optimal wallpaper dimensions for scaled displays?

    If I have a 4K display scaled to 2560x1440, what should the dimensions of my wallpapers be if I want the crispest background possible? Will 2560x1440 wallpapers look as crisp as the scaled UI on a 4K monitor with native dimensions of 3840x2160? Or should I strive to download 3840x2160 wallpapers?

    Apple has had Retina display Macs since... 2013??... and they STILL haven't fixed the Preview app's failure to show 100%-scaled images as 1 pixel per one pixel. It shows them blown up somewhat. Yes, I have checked the setting in Preview's preferences, and NO, it has no effect. It defeats the...
