If they do they become the undisputed king of portability.
It baffles me why Apple didn’t push more proactively sharing cellular over their devices, but it always seemed that it was because of cellular models or cellular companies pressure.
I’m still waiting for the moment you can use cellular as a WiFi backup in a laptop without having to push a button.
This could backfire into something Google don’t want: everyone using adblockers.
Imagine everyone installing adblockers just to skip YouTube’s obnoxious ad rolls, just to also block most Internet ads.
Suddenly, having an adblocker becomes mainstream like wearing socks.
Certainly the price increase involves losing a very small but vocal percent of users, that is covered by the rest of users who swallow the new price.
To me, their pricing wasn’t competitive. The only good plan is Apple Music plus TV+ if you’re st udent.
Well, that’s a bummer, but it will be interesting to see how it stacks up on day-to-day usage.
It’s not that the folks on the base M3 are going to stress out the machine with high computation tasks, but the Pro and Max surely will have enough people talking about synthetic benchmarks vs real benchmarks to see what optimizations Apple made that and are not paying off.
Here is still business as usual, and the next version of the constitution is still not even out to reject it. Nothing has changed, for better or worse, in the political mechanisms.
Seems like a NOPE for anyone who only has an iPhone, but if you’re deep into Apple ecosystem with a Mac or an iPad, it seems reasonable if it becomes available in all of your devices and your save data is synced across devices, but if not, then it’s a bad deal no matter how you put it. Imagine running it on the AppleTV.
Honestly I don’t think you’re gonna drive users with a console to buy it again if it looks the same or worse.
I think this kind of first releases is a wait-and-see. If it’s performance is on par with consoles, and there is sync saves, it may be an excellent deal.
It’s not that you can buy RE4 on Xbox and play it on PC too with a single purchase, can you?
My only explanation is that the ProMotion, hence the GPU, decided to consume more. It’s evident on how YouTube and the games depleted 30% of the battery while the iPhone 15 Plus was just chill.
And that seems like a problem on both Pro Max. Videos and Games on 120Hz means low battery life. I wonder how it would have lasted ProMotion was disabled and keep the brightened at the same nits.
I wonder how it would have lasted.
That dangerous part was up to the FTC to prove and they couldn’t.
It will go nuclear once we get into 1nm territory and we see the first attempts to use light rather than electricity.
Lol. It’s highly probable that adds still exists but not on the explorer. May be if you ask AI to tell you which games are the most played, it will shove an Game Pass subscription or an Xbox.
It will be interesting to know how much AI integration it gets. To me, I think Microsoft will use it as an excuse for telemetry and personal data. They already explored ads on the OS, so I can imagine selling you stuff while trying to use AI tools while trying to do your work. May be a subscription to copilot.
They know that they capitalize can capitalize on AI faster than any major OS developer, but how much value will be given by the user?
Of course, otherwise would mean investing in huge data centers for running LLM models, or worse, buying hardware from NVIDIA.
Optimization is the key. Privacy is just an added bonus.
