so when i turn the atv on and off, it'll send commands through hdmi that a good tv will understand, turning itself on and off too????

and for volume too????

please tell me this is how it works. i wil buy one for that feature alone because im lazy as gently caress

if it works like my blu-ray player when I press a button on the blu ray remote my tv and receiver turn on and go to the correct input and I can control volume with any remote and it's great if I want to play a game I just press the home button on my ps4 and it switches to that

why do people get mad that apple is copying someone and usually making it better

like why do you have an allegiance to microsoft or google for coming up with a thing first? theyre all insanely wealthy tech companies

just use whatever product is best

thats why they are mad because apple does the stuff the best but they have this illusion that it also costs the most despite that it doesnt for the tier its on.

they just dont sell a poors-model entry tier at all like the others do (you cant buy a mac laptop for $250 at best buy), and they cant afford a grand for a laptop, so this makes them hate apple

people get mad that apple sees an idea working badly elsewhere and makes it good, even if it means slightly going back on something they said earlier

these people own phones and devices that are essentially clones of apple products bar that one feature.

its weird because i'm about 2 months out from 2 years with my iPhone 5s and usually by now my anriod phones are falling apart and the battery's dying and the software is a piece of poo poo (lmao) requiring me to restart it like twice a day to get it to answer calls

the 5s is just fine and it works like the day I bought it (just prettier thanks to ios8) so i'm really lacking any desire to go after the 6s at this point,

is this what life is like when you don't buy horrid trash?

ya same. from a technical standpoint being able to upgrade devices so seamlessly is absolutely phenomenal but on the other hand i kind of miss that period of getting used to the new device.

i'm gonna upgrade though because my employer pays my phone bill so gently caress it why not

welcome.

what was it like when you go from one android to another? I can't imagine it being smooth but maybe they've sorted it out? I'm guessing going from one venders model to another isn't as bad as say Samsung so HTC or whatever?

even before iCloud, having a mobile me account was worthwhile from the day I walked into an Apple Store with my dead phone, got a replacement and it had enough charge to last the evening and jumping on wifi meant I got all my contacts and other necessities as well as some podcasts to listen to. it's even better now.

it's pretty nice when you have stuff that you use every day that works fairly well and holds its value. i sold my '06 white macbook in 2012 for $300. i intend to keep my 2012 macbook pro until at least 2018. both low end models with cheap upgrades I took care of after a few years of use. sold my iphone 3GS and 4 for close to the next model's upgrade price with contract.
