They are actually getting better and more consistent with hardware. Even though they are a software-first company, you'll need to give credit where it is due

Data exchange in network traffic is usually encrypted. If they really tried, it could also be obfuscated in other ways, so there's no real way to know if they're really spying or not.

You can only fully trust it if the OS and its relevant application components are open source. so that you exactly know what it does.

Unconfirmed, but the differences would only be the battery and screen sizes

The chances of this chip breaking is as low as the SoC itself breaking

Their code is all closed-source, so it's not confirmed if they're really spying on you or not. You're just trusting their marketing.

I don't trust Facebook either, but it's hard to believe until you have hard evidence.

Also, with the way encryption in applications is implemented, it's kind of hard for Meta to know what the plaintext contents of your messages are. The UK wouldn't even ask for this in the first place if WhatsApp used some shoddy implementation that allows them to read all of your personal messages.

That's literally the same thing as what Apple is doing... it's not a bonus, it's breaking compatibility maliciously.

No, it's because makers like OnePlus force users to buy only their proprietary chargers and cables to have access to their advanced fast charging features

Some Android phones also do this by the way

Many Androids already use proprietary USB C cables for fast charging

Even MS executives would be embarrassed to release this piece of trash

It actually stores FaceID components too

Probably memory leaks

Don't you check for prigram compatibility before buying a Mac?

It's actually really good value for the performance you get out of these things. They are also built really well with nice display panels compared to most similarly specced PC laptop counterparts.

Probably can run Fortnite

It requires an external dongle, which is silly and convoluted

I know. USB-C can accommodate for a wider range of data transfer speeds and protocols, which is one reason why it's better than Lightning.

Then why would this legislation be dumb? Many laptops already support high-watt USB-C charging. USB-C also would allow for higher speed data transfers on the iPhone. You can use the same charger for everything.

You're being edgy because rules by politicians bad and you're tech illiterate

Apple has already confirmed that they will go USB-C. Moreover, wireless connections are not reliable for diagnostics.

Sure, enjoy your year 2000 transfer speeds with USB2.0 on Lightning. True innovation.

Most Samsungs are compatible with USB PD lol

Won't happen. Wireless is unreliable for low-level diagnostics

nm is now a marketing name, like a "version" with different associated features

Supercomputers aren't really meant to be impressive tech demos, at the end of the day they're meant for actual real-world applications
