I was just thinking today that Apple needs a cheaper phone with the internals and screen of the X but without all the fucking glass. The phone is beautiful, all the Iphones are, but no one fucking sees it or uses it without a case most of the time unless they're rich fuckers that don't care.

Even with apple care insurance i still put a case on my phones. It's pretty stupid because i'm sure 90% of users use these phones with a case.

I'll take the degraded look on my X in a clear case rather than risk scratches or shatters without one. But I do sometimes take it out of the case and fondle it. :shaq

I’ve gotten so used to using my phones with a case that they feel overly skinny and hard to use without one.

Also, Jobs is a mega asshole, like a truly horrible person apparently up until the day he died. I do like how the daughter is trying to spin all of it into “he was giving me life lessons” and is frustrated this story is about him when it’s her memoir.

Like, the only reason people give a shit about your memoir is because of your famous dad.

That's not shocking though. Most of the great CEOs are complete psychos. You kinda have to be.

Also, he never wanted her, or the mother. He probably resented her a lot but eventually came around.

3 days until the apple event.

the big reveal for me won't be the Xs but the rumored cheaper 6.1 inch model https://appleinsider.com/articles/18/09/09/purported-61-inch-lcd-iphone-xc-shown-off-on-social-media

I don't want the whole glass back and 'look at how luxurious my phone is' I just want an affordable Iphone with good specs and a nice screen.

I don't really get the 6.1 ratio though... why would they do that? Why not just make an Iphone X but without the glass? This leaves me a bit confused especially since there's apparently going to be an Xs+ model as well.

Because it's a cheaper screen both tech and size.  They don't necessarily make OLED panels the same size / shape as LCD ones.
I guess. $750 price point. I"m down with that but then the fucking release date is mid to late Oct? WTF.

Another shitty Apple event. Just new phones and a new watch. No Macbook air, or any new product. Awful.

I just had purify off for a few days and was kind of surprised how bad the hijacked web pages and malicious redirects have gotten on an iphone. I was getting redirects even when trying to click through to pretty vanilla ass web pages like eBay and huffingtonpost straight from google.

I'm not even really sure how it occurs or the method of infection .

I think the point is that the SE could easily get a refresh and be a popular model.

I think it is finally time to upgrade my iPhone 5s. When my air conditioning died for a week, the extreme heat in my apartment seems to have overheated the battery causing it to expand and push the screen out. The protective case I have it in seems to be holding everything in place for now, but I'm thinking it's only a matter of time before it dies.

Walk into a store and try the new phones then test how your phone feels.

Also, wow $270 for applecare on all X phones. Unbelievable.  They're really going nuts aren't they.


BUt that dual slim slot with both being active is pretty darn cool and useful for me. I think the Xr it is.

You need to replace that shit fast and take that battery to a tech recycle center pronto. That shit will explode soon.

(Though since a lot of dumpster fires happen at a Tech recycle center... maybe you should look for a "safe"  :doge :doge :doge :doge :doge way of exploding it yourself. :doge :doge :doge :doge :doge :doge :doge :doge)

Especially now that battery replacement has gotten cheap.

I’ve moved onto the leasing train. As long as my carrier keeps giving me deals every 18 months to trump, I’ll probably keep doing it. I think I’m paying $15 a month for a 7 or something like that.

AppleCare+ has been a rip-off for a long time. All phone insurance is unless you break your phone screen on the regular.

Replacing the XR screen is expensive... but you only save like $200 once you factor in the cost of AppleCare and you’re out $270 no matter what

I wonder if AppleCare will be cheaper on the non-oled phones.

Why would that be a bad thing? I’ll just save a bunch of my nudies in your camera.

$1249 I think. I’ll be honest. I didn’t really look so that I wouldn’t doubt myself before I purchased.

Do they really require signatures for delivery? It said it did but I won’t be home on Friday when delivery bros come.

someone help me out. i want to make sure my photos can go to the cloud, but i don't want a potential nude popping up every time i open my goddamn photo app or log into a device and have pics start downloading to that fucking device.

anyone? and i can't stand how apple has a bullshit "hidden" photos folder which is not actually hidden. seriously, they're fucking distinguished mentally-challenged. that whole cloud computing team needs to be wiped out and handed pink slips.

(maybe i should use my prime photos to store stuff there. i share it with my brother. if we have two different profiles he can't see them right?)

it's more than just that. it's the fact that if you delete off your phone the fotos are gone completely. it's so unintuitive and you have to drop through hoops. i've decided on going with amazon drive since i get unlimited photo storage with prime.

I dunno about the CEO claim. But yeah: It's been known for a long while that Jobs treated Lisa and her mom like shit.

For as much as he was an asshole (and it's a huge notable thing) as a person: Jobs could market shit like it wasn't shit and people would buy it. Apple post-him hasn't had the same "magic" as it had under him.

Right, since there is no super asshole maniac guiding the ship everyone seems content taking home nice paychecks and sitting on their asses.

- iphoto still sucks
- itunes still sucks

Steve deserves all the praise and criticism he's given, is the way I see it. One thing doesn't cancel the other out imo. He was the driving force of the company's spirit for the longest time during their most innovative periods.

(That said I still think the Newton had innovative features)

The Newton was an interesting piece of kit, to be sure. Unfortunately the support for early adopters was atrocious.

Apple faltered when they ousted Jobs in the 80s...not surprising that without him they've lost direction again.  But for all the bitching and complaining that people do, tons of them still continue to purchase Apple products.

I still have an iPhone and iPad but I recently bought a refurbished Kindle Fire tablet for like $30 and that thing is surprisingly decent as a comic reader/web browser/simple apps.

Biggest drawback is you have to side load all of the google services because the amazon App Store is not great.

I’ve had Android phones in the past, and while there are certain things I preferred with them, In my experience, “forced obsolescence” was actually worse on the ones I’ve owned.

I think both of the ones I had, eventually the carrier pushed out an update that upgraded to a new version of Android that basically made them super slow and shitty. This happens on iPhone too... but more slowly.

$1000 you say :leon

Again, at the end of the day the fact that my Iphone 6 is now 5 years old and with Ios12 running as good as when i bought it, there's no fucking reason to switch to an Android that starts to suck within 1.5 years.

I've decided to skip this gen again. A family member bought the Xmax and i will be grabbing that 7+ they just sold me for $350 with new battery replacement. Considering i can sell my 6 here for $190, i just spent $160 for practically a brand new 7+.

I'll upgrade next year.   :)

Tomorrow is the day we may actually see a new MacBook Air.

I'm hoping it's borderless with facial recognition. That'd be really fucking sweet.  The notch is annoying on the phone but I think with the laptops it'd be pretty nice.

New MacBook Air $1199

Same design as the last but with less bezel retina display +Touch ID, 17% less volume in size. 100% recycled aluminum. 3 colors.

I was hoping for a $999 price point. A little bit underwhelming but it is such a perfect laptop already there's not much they could do .

100% recycled aluminum is just “these are all the reconditioned MacBook Air shells from the last time we offered this laptop (not really, obviously)”

So the new iPad Pro has usb C. That seems like a big change. Although $800 for a freaking iPad is some dumb bullshit that will keep me from upgrading to it.

All I do on them is watch videos, read comic books, and play phone games.

I’d like a bigger screen but not for those prices.

It's funny because you couldn't backup your 128gb iphone to it.

shitty keyboard, low memory, $1199 price tag.

Get over Apple and buy a Windows PC or a Chromebook.  If you hate Windows so much...put Linux on it?

When you actually look at the options that are out there though the price for the Air isn't that unreasonable. The only thing apple does that pisses me off is the memory thing, they price gouge you on that. It's the Apple "tax" bump that is annoying.
