Another 4K TV with A12!

Yes, rehash those iPhone X chips!

Ironically I’ll probably buy it, I have a 4th gen Apple TV I need to update.

Yeah, that looks like a much better remote.

But it's only $20 more... seems like a no-brainer to simply double it up "just in case". I could see if it were $40 or $50 or more.

I think that’s exactly why apple priced it that way. I was gonna get the 32gb, but yeah, it has me thinking why not.

There is no A1 Mac Air.

This is taking the same SOC for the MBA, mini, and new iMac and putting it in an iPad Pro.

Ok, gotcha, I think I was mixing up my letters thanks.

Kinda want both the iPad and the iMac but gonna have to settle for just one.

(Or buy both like the giant idiot I am)

My Mac is a 2012 air, iPad is a 2016 pro, so I’m in the boat of wanting both, but yeah, I’ll have to just pick one.

Man, 12.9” iPad cellular is $1,300. That’s def both not surprising and also not cheap.

Maybe I’ll just find someone selling their 2020 iPad 12.9 cellular.

So Apple that the AirTag doesn’t have any form of attachment built in so you need to buy an accessory to attach to your keys.

I am kind of surprised that they are selling the $13 Belkin key ring on the Apple Store which is undercutting their $35 leather version.

(Also surprised Apple is still so heavy into leather everything with their environment focus.)

This, but it’s drat smart. We all say “wow, only $30” and then you pay $10-20 more for the drat hook separate.

Yes I’ll still probably buy them.

So I don’t follow these tracker tiles very closely. If I have one on my keychain and drop my keys while out hiking in a wilderness and don’t realize for a half hour will they help me? Or is it more of a crap they fell off my dresser where in my house are they?

The latter. Works on base level exactly like tile: Bluetooth range. If a nearby iPhone finds it it’ll also work, but some Apple device needs to be nearby to locate it.

But the Tiles don’t have directional locators, right?

Apple’s U1 (or whatever) chip enables that functionality.

Well, yeah Apple is def doing it better, and even within a similar price point. So rip Tile.

So if you were asking with the additional features, I don’t think other companies do because they don’t have access to the hardware like apple can.
