How many apple devices do you own, what's your apple environment set up like?

[janeauburn]

1 phone. Any more than that, and my life starts to feel weighed down. Possessions are anchors.

Macbook Pro 2015

iPhone 6S that's not being used at the moment. Currently using an S8.

Apple TV 4

I like these posts too. But unfortunately like Facebook people may rob you of your belongings knowing you have acquired these products.

Seems like a boasting exercise but I will indulge...

Quite possibly it is.

That's enough to make me think how much money folks like us have spent on this.

Ah see, that's the beauty of my 2003-2006 era computers

I paid $189 for my 17" PowerBook, $100 for my Quad PowerMac G5. My 2.3DC and 2.7 DP PowerMac G5s were free. My 2006 17" MBP was $169, my iPhone 4s was $20. My Thinkpad was $119.

I only paid full price for my iPhone 5, 6s+ and iPad Air 2.

iPhone 7 Plus 256GB, Ipad 10.5" 256GB, ATV 4, AW2 SS, 2011 MacBook, 2011 iMac, 2TB Time Capsule, iTunes Match plus Apple CarPlay in my BMW.

I love the Apple ecosystem but I refuse to pay £9.99 a month for Apple Music. If they reduce the price by 50% I will consider it.

This was one reason when I was on Facebook that I controlled who could see my personal information.

Facebook never had my address. None of the friends I had were people I didn't know and of the few I didn't know well they lived in different states or countries.

All anyone ever knew was the city I lived in. Those who knew me well already had my address.

My FB account was set to be unsearchable from the net and friends of friends could not post on my wall, let alone see it.

People get in trouble on Facebook not so much for oversharing, but for being dumb about their account settings.

All that aside, I left Facebook and deleted my account about six months ago. But not before running a script that deleted every photo I had ever posted.

It’s also very helpful that Apple supports the older tech for so long.

I think that depends on your viewpoint…

No support for my PowerBook G4s and PowerMac G5's any more. Not even for my 2006 MBP. Apple dropped me like a hot rock in 2012 when they made syncing with lightning devices a Intel Mac only option.

Not so much of an environment yet; i plan to relegate my Win 10 PC for the 2017 MBP at some point

I keep a spreadsheet. It's a lot. That said, I plan for big tech purchases. It tends to be the random little things that end up using a bigger chunk of the budget.

 

[KUKitch]

Let's see, I've got:

2017 15" MBP
iPhone 6s+ 64 GB
iPad Pro 12.9 first gen 128
Apple Watch Series 2
Apple TV gen 4
AirPods

My wife has:

2013 13" rMBP
iPhone 6s+ 16 GB
iPad Air 2 16 GB
Apple Watch Series 0
AirPods

Both of us go through the upgrade process... I can't remember all the devices we've had

- iPhone 7 Plus 256gb -wife's

-iPhone 6s- wife's old one, spare

-iPhone 6 Plus 128 gb, mine, I switch between LG G6 and this

-iPhone 6s plus 128 gb - stepdaughter

-iPhone 5, son uses as like an iPod touch

-iMac 27 inch computer- family PC

- 3 iPads can't even tell which generation. My kids.

-iPod touch, also my kid's

Guess that's it for now. Don't have Apple TV or Apple Watch.

 

[Helmsley]

The only Apple device I own is an iPhone 6s. I use it for pretty much everything.

[Fried_Gold]

I've had a crap load of stuff in the past but the only Apple products I currently use are iPhone 7, MacBook Pro 2015, Airport Extreme and AirPods. Got rid of iPad's, Apple Watch and Apple TVs etc a couple of years ago.

 

[Fred_Eric]

iPhone 6 in silver
Apple Watch Series 1 in spacegrey
iPad Pro 10.5 in spacegrey
MacBook Pro Late 2013
Apple TV 3. Generation,

I see no need in upgrading the Macbook, iPad does all I need
Maybe a new iPhone next year…

 

[bufffilm]

6s from 2015, iPad 2 from 2011, and a iPod Nano 5th gen from 2010.

I'm not tied down to any particular eco-system. And that's the way I like it.

I recently picked up a Nano (7th gen) shortly after Apple axed it. I'm not sure why I did...my 5th gen is still used daily, esp. at night (listen to music as I drift to sleep), battery seems ok.

No way would my 6s be a worthy substitute for that use case - too big, having to charge it back up the next morning, etc. Guess I wanted a backup Nano...just in case.

Some stored iOS devices that I never had the patience to sell:

- iPad 4, space grey 32 GB
- iPad 3, white 32 GB
- iPod classic 2006, 30 GB
- iPod classic 2012 (the very last one), 160 GB

I'll be adding the iPhone 8 or iPhone 7s Plus to the active devices (still undecided)

I'm all in in Apple's ecosystem with the notable exception of my email account. I use an Outlook email address as my personal account and an Office 365 as my university address.
I do not plan on changing this anytime soon. Apple ecosystem works wonders for me.

My current set up comprises of the following:

MacBook Pro Retina 2012

iPad Pro 12.9 128GB 2015

iPhone 7 Plus 256GB

Apple TV 4 64GB


However, I’ve been toying around with non Apple products this year.

Currently, I’ve got Google Homes, Chromecasts and Chromecast audio’s around the house (I tried Amazon Echo’s before then but returned all but one Echo dot to keep for testing). I also just sold on this years Nvidia Shield to make way for the 4K Apple TV (I just sold my 600+ strong Blu-Ray collection and went 100% in on iTunes because of iTunes Extras and the ease of access).


As far as Home Automation, I tried Samsung SmartThings and it sucked. I’m now waiting for Apple HomeKit to mature in the UK as I’ve more belief in Apple’s quality control over Samsungs. I’ve got hue lighting throughout the house but want to add door and window sensors, provided I can just ask if all doors and windows are shut and get a call back from my assistant of choice, be it Siri, Alexa or Google Assistant to tell which, if any, need shutting.


I’m interested in AirPlay 2 but I’ve heard nothing about whether video and audio will still be dependant on your iOS/ MacOS device... Even if it is the case that it can be independent, I’m thinking with regard to Google Home and Chromecast, if it works, it works, however, I’m open to the idea of the HomePod provided there’s a way of connecting external sources somehow or I’ll stick to my denon avr and speakers (although I’d like to downsize without compromising on quality).

By far my purchase of 2017 has been Google WiFi. It does what I need and blows away any Wifi I’ve had before.


The end to the year will be an interesting one. I’ll be sure to purchase an iPhone Edition, HomePod (or two) and maybe given the Apple Watch another try, however, I just enjoy learning about consumer tech through usage and luckily that helps with my profession.

God knows if this is helpful to anyone but those are my proverbial 2 cents haha
