I could have spent an hour coming up with the perfect solitaire joke just for it to be topped by this banger.

It’s not a waste at all. The extra computing power allows them to get much better performance than previous model OR the same performance with half the power use. That’s pretty important in a mobile device.

MacBook Pros are 100Wh as well. Battery life is incredible.

Not sure how accurate this would be as charging is not 100% efficient. Also the amount of power the phone uses while charging would have to be taken into account as well.

Also, if they had booked flights, hotels, and made other commitments to travel to the concert that money might not be easy to get back.
- Comment on Commercials Are Streaming’s New Norm, and Creators Aren’t Happy: “It’s Almost Worse Than Broadcast” 4 months ago:
Honestly, a preview for another show on the same service doesn’t bother me AS LONG AS it is skippable. I’ve never used paramount so I’m not sure if that’s the case.
If I’m being honest when I was a kid part of the fun of going to the movies was the previews before, finding out about upcoming movies and what not.
I do agree that you shouldn’t see the same preview every episode cause that’s super annoying. But I’d be totally fine with one per session or something. Again, as long as it’s skippable right from the start.

- Comment on Apple Vision Pro review: magic, until it’s not 4 months ago:
The thing you have to factor in is they can’t make very many of them due to technical limitations. I agree $2k would be a good price but if they will sell as many as they could possibly make at $3.5k they aren’t going to sell for less. Gotta recoup all that R&D cost somehow.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see a better, more refined headset from Apple for under $2k in the next few years. I’m sure they know $3500 is out of reach for the vast majority of consumers.
- Comment on Apple Vision Pro review: magic, until it’s not 4 months ago:
To me, no I would never pay $3500 for a headset. But I can also appreciate the insane amount of tech that’s included in it. Historically the 3rd or 4th gen of a new apple product is where they really hit their stride. And hopefully in this case come down in price.
As for the battery I personally don’t think that would be much of an issue since when I think about my main use case for it I’d be sitting on the couch and it would just be plugged into the wall. I couldn’t find the length of included usb-c cable online but I have a few 2 meter ones already that I would use.
On flights I can see it being frustrating for sure.

If you genuinely think it’s worth less than $200 then I don’t know what to tell you.

He just wants to hate Apple and really has no clue about this headset. I find it futile to reply to these types of people.

Highly recommend Apple TV. My only issue is the insane amount of YouTube ads. Feels like more ads than content some days.

The technology is years ahead of anything else.
Why are you comparing bleeding edge technology to a motorbike? Literally the stupidest comparison I’ve seen.
You clearly just want to shit on the product and have no intention to having an honest discussion.
- Comment on YouTube and Spotify Won’t Launch Apple Vision Pro Apps, Joining Netflix 5 months ago:
I’m not confused at all. The reason people get headaches it’s a tech issue. Not a VR issue. Low resolution screen, low refresh rate, and heavy headsets are the cause of those issues. Technology has not advanced enough to solve those issues. Apple has created the best option so far, but there’s still a lot of room to improve.
Due to the better tech in Vision Pro I wouldn’t be surprised if the amount of people getting headaches compared to other headsets is lower, but not zero unfortunately.
I’m not sure how you can say in good conscience that people don’t dislike the price. Go into any thread regarding Vision Pro and price will by far be the most discussed topic.
- Comment on YouTube and Spotify Won’t Launch Apple Vision Pro Apps, Joining Netflix 5 months ago:
I get what you’re saying, and regarding people walking around in public wearing a headset, I completely agree. It’ll be a very long time before that happens, if ever.
I disagree that AR won’t become more ubiquitous in people’s lives. Right now, the biggest gripe I see when people talk about Vision Pro is the price. Which was also the case with all the other Apple products I mentioned. The price will come down, it’ll get more features, and it will become more attractive to consumers.
Only time will tell which of us will be right.
- Comment on YouTube and Spotify Won’t Launch Apple Vision Pro Apps, Joining Netflix 5 months ago:
I mean, yeah, you can find people who believed in them. But the general consensus around all those products was they are too expensive, don’t offer any meaningful upgrades over current tech, or are just useless and no one will want them.
I’ve been reading MacRumours forums since before the iPhone launch and it’s always the same thing regarding new products. Without using them, people can have an hard time seeing the positives. I think that issue is even bigger now with the Vision Pro.
- Comment on YouTube and Spotify Won’t Launch Apple Vision Pro Apps, Joining Netflix 5 months ago:
They were wondering that for the iPod, the iPhone, the iPad, the Apple Watch, and AirPods. I’d bet that in 10 years a decent portion of the population will have some sort of headset, Apple or otherwise.

Go into any technology thread that mentions Apple in the title and you’ll see that’s not the case. It’s rare to find a comment that uses actual facts, mostly just opinions of people who have never used an Apple product complaining that they suck.

I don’t think you’re supposed to post reasonable, level-headed opinions regarding Apple on here. Against the rules or something
