magsafe, lidar and flat edges are cool

fingerprint sensor on the back is like the one design advantage that android has and apple's refusal to copy them makes me lol

edit: claiming environmental gains by not putting a charger in the box is some #courage poo poo and also very lol

so things that are useless on these phones: ultra wideband, lidar, 5g.
things that are good: square sides, magnetic car mounts, cameras.
things that are lol: why the gently caress does it use inductive charging with a magnetically aligned connector? if only there was an example of a magnetic coupling connector that used conductive charging. maybe one that Apple had a patent on and a memorable name, like SafetyMagnet.

My friend is an eloquent speaker.

it sucks living in plague-ridden america because i am very curious if the potential one-handedness of smolphone12 outweighs the extra camera and storage available on the pro, and I am not going to handle a bunch of display models to figure it out. of course since my work se2 takes nicer photos than my x at this point, I think I will just spare myself the extra 300 bucks and taste the rainbow.

the 12 mini reminds me the 5c, which was a good-looking design, fully realized.

yeah i have pretty strong doubts that airpods studio will be competitive on sound quality with existing options given apple's inability to deliver that up to this point. like the rest of the airpods offerings, they will win on convenience and cool. the problem for apple is that the over-ear market cares a lot less about those things, and more about sound quality, and they'll continue to get owned in that department. i'm sure airpods studio will sell well, dont get me wrong, but it wont be a market-upending thing like apple watch.

quote:


At the event, Apple referred to these products as starting at $699 (iPhone 12 mini) and $799 (iPhone 12), but those prices are not actually accurate unless you slap a big asterisk on there. (As Apple does on its marketing pages, because it must.)

Here’s what’s actually happening, at least in the U.S.: Apple has cut deals with AT&T and Verizon that give existing customers of those carriers $30 off their purchases. The actual prices of the two models are $729 and $829, and that’s what you’ll pay if you’re a U.S. subscriber to Sprint, T-Mobile, any smaller pay-as-you-go carriers, or if you want to buy a SIM-free model with no carrier connection at all. (The 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max are the same price on all carriers.)

not sure what you’re all talking about. double tap a word to select it, triple tap to select a paragraph works4me. I also like to use force touch on the keyboard to go into cursor drag, then force touch while cursor dragging to select text while dragging. although that might be gone with non-force touch phones
