Will be interested if they put the same chips in the iMacs. Presuming these have been optimised for power efficiency but are they good enough to just whack in the desktops.
It definitely seems quicker. Moving around in the Finder is a bit snappier. Dark mode looks alright as well. Not completely down with the buttons and overall design. Some of the icon redesigns are bleurgh. UI redesigns always cause some amount of grating when you're used to the other one, but this seems fine.
iphone 12 pro - upgraded from an XR, so far it's quicker but thats about it. Nothing really revolutionary
He could've just said they came from another planet but seems keen to convince people with his bullshit pseudoscience that he knows stuff. I wouldn't trust him with my lunch. - SG
Wow, I'm an Apple fan, but not sure I like music enough to pay that much! I'm sure they are cheap for audiophiles. Guess it will come down to the reviews as to whether they are worth it.
Mostly for their expertise in customisation and fashion. Apple have always been good at delivering a tightly controlled range of very few products, whereas Beats aced the delivery of hundreds (even thousands) of variants on one single product. Apple wanted that capability for their watches, so they invested. It didn’t hurt their reputation as a music store, either.
Having lived with my 12 pro now for a few weeks I'm astonished at how good the battery is in this thing. A standard day of browsing, email, messages, calls etc and it's rarely below 85% by bed time.
£550 for headphones is pushing it a bit but if i wasn't still happy with my b&w's then I could be tempted to at least have a listen.
I am still rocking an iPhone 8 which is now slow and batter drains quickly. Was thinking of upgrading to iPhone 12 Pro and giving iPhone 8 to the daughter so checked some prices out earlier. Holy fuck. Maybe I’ll stick to a slow shit phone.
Bought me an iPhone 12 mini today. Lovely little thing. Currently drumming my fingers on the desktop while it sets itself up.
Went to The Apple Store to buy it. Guy outside won't let me in.
Sorry Sir, you'll have to make an appointment on the website to get in, because of the pandemic.
I Looked at the website last night and nowhere did it say I have to make an appointment, and there were no appointments to be had there anyway.
Sorry Sir, you'll have to make an appointment on the website to get in.
I just want to buy a new phone mate.
Sorry Sir, you'll have to make an appointment on the website to get in.
So you don't want my money then?
Sorry Sir, you'll have to make an appointment on the website to get in.
Oh fuck off!
So I wandered back up to John Lewis and bought the exact same phone there, because they'll...you know...let you in their store, and happily take your money.
Also, being JL, the wee partner chap that assisted me in buying all the stuff I needed was an absolute champ!
My iPhone turns on wi-fi automatically now and then. I think it mostly/only happens when I get home from being outside. Not sure how to turn it off, it’s annoying.
