iPad Need to Update... but Apple doesn't make it easy
Hello All, I am hoping that this post for help is not so "personal" that it does not help others. I have a 2018 iPad Pro (model A2013) with 512GB of storage - wifi/cellular with Verizon. I love it, and use it all the time. In my life, I have a very specific use case for all of my devices... -

iPhone 15 Pro Upgrading to iPhone 15 Pro or wait for 16 Pro?
What would you do? Wait for the 16 Pro or buy the 15 Pro now? I get it partially subsidised from work every 2 years, but need to pay a premium to get over the base models. Currently on iPhone 13, 11 Pro before that. I do miss the zoom from 11 Pro. Regular pictures did improve over the 11 Pro -... -

iPhone 12 Upgrading iPhone 12
Hi, is there any noticeable difference between iPhone 12 and 15? I know that it is pointless to buy model 13/14 if I have iPhone 12, but is the newest iPhone 15 really that better? Different notch, better camera, battery etc, everything is fine but is it really noticeable in terms of daily... -

Can an old rMBP talk to a brand new Macbook?
Hello. I am still using a 2013 rMBP. It works pretty well, except its original battery is dying. Time for an upgrade. I'll get a MBA15 or MBP M3 or something. Doesn't really matter...they'll be stupidly fast and more capable than what I have now. Say the new laptop arrives. Can I create a...- davagorn

iPhone 15 Pro What phone did you upgrade from and have you noticed a difference?
Personally I had an iPhone 13 128gb and have chose the iPhone 15 Pro. The camera is night and day and I do really notice the smooth scrolling from the 120hz display. AOD is pointless imo, but I like the dynamic island. Also my eyes don’t feel as jaded reading in dark mode at night. Battery is... -

Was on Reddit last week getting excited for my upgrade to the 15 pro max (coming from the 12 pro). Idk, but it seems like this year’s release got the societal bandwagon broadcast when compared to the last few years (maybe it was just me, but it reminded me of 2008-2013 era).
