At the start of 2023 I made some predictions about what Apple would do with basically every product in their lineup, so halfway through the year seemed like a good time to check in on things. iPhone 15 A relatively minor upgrade once again, but USB-C will make it's triumphant
Apple unleashed visionOS on developers yesterday, and people are having tons of fun running visionOS in the simulator on their Macs (big iPadOS in 2010 energy, and I'm here for it!), but designers like me also get in on the action and there are some great resources available. The big
Apple just announced a game mode for macOS Sonoma, as well as developer tools that would make porting Windows games to Metal easier than ever before. You can watch the developer sessions here if you want to see more details, but one surprising thing that came out of these sessions
The biggest criticism I’ve gotten about my reactions to the Apple Vision Pro have been around my suggestion that wearing a visor all day, including during your kid’s birthday party, is weird and no one is going to find that normal. Of note, several times in the article
There’s no doubt that text and image generators have been the tech category of 2023 so far. Love them or hate them, they’ve captured the industry’s and the public’s imagination over the last 6 months. One company completely absent from that trend: Apple, and there was
Did you know that the top 2 games on Steam are available for the Mac? That's right, Counter Strike: Global Offensive and DOTA 2, which at any moment in time have about 2 million concurrent players on Steam alone, are sitting right there for Mac users to download and play.
I've been using the iPhone 13 mini and it's the first time I've ever used a mini in my life. In fact, I'm more of a Max phone guy, but people love the mini lineup and I had to know what was up. So I've set my iPhone 14 Pro
WWDC is just over a month away, and before the leaks really start coming, I wanted to write down a few of my wild and wacky predictions for the event. Random 1. A presenter in the keynote makes a “mistake” 2. A presenter is wearing a headband 3. The phrase
Editor's note: I will be referring to "VR" headsets, and I'm sure some will correct me that Apple is making an "MR" (mixed reality) headset. In my opinion, if you're not looking at the actual real world, it's a VR headset (and current VR headsets let you see the real
Yesterday my wife told me that she'd been using the Apple Podcasts app recently, and while she didn't love it, it was enabling her to pay for a few premium podcasts that she loved. The specific shows don't really matter for this story, but I will say that the ones
I know this isn't true for everyone, but I've recently noticed that while I tend to prefer native apps built with care for iOS on my iPhone and iPad, I have basically none of that feeling on my Mac. For Example… For example, I have been experimenting using Cron for
I recently started giving Apple News another shot. I'm an Apple One subscriber, so I figured why the hell not, I'm paying for it, after all. My issue is that my reading habits are based around RSS and a read later service (Readwise). Personally, I want to find things to
I think Apple should add touch to Macs, and I think that this will allow them to not only make current form factors better, but it will allow them to create Macs that are more flexible, more powerful, and more accessible than any Macs before them. That said, there are
Apple announced two new Macs today; huzzah! MacBook Pro My prediction for this lineup was: Those 2021 models are due for processor upgrades, but don't expect any form factor changes, this is a pure spec bump. And this is just what happened, which I think is more than fine. The
Last week I posted by review of the Apple Watch Ultra, andI found it was a good pick for more people than just those who climb mountains or go diving. But I personally didn't prefer it to the Series 7, largely due to a few things: * I greatly prefer the
