Last year, Apple launched CarPlay Ultra, the long-awaited next-generation version of its CarPlay software system for vehicles. Nearly a year later, CarPlay Ultra is still limited to Aston Martin's latest luxury vehicles, but that should change fairly soon.
In May 2025, Apple said many other vehicle brands planned to offer CarPlay Ultra, including Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis.

Apple's iPhone development roadmap runs several years into the future and the company is continually working with suppliers on several successive iPhone models at the same time, which is why we often get rumored features months ahead of launch. The iPhone 18 series is no different, and we already have a good idea of what to expect for the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max.
One thing worth...

Let me break it down for you since it seems difficult to understand, I was talking mainly about the junk keyboard, it is trash no matter the generation, I was also referring to the faulty screen, which is in fact a defect and it affected the machine I USE, why does it hurt you so much to accept it?
And yes, these machines do not perform the same as others even with a big chip in it, it will just get hot and underclocked as soon as you through serious design tasks, numerical simulations or heavy computing to it. For better performance I have to go to a PC that costs $890 less or to a Linux machine that costs $1000 less than the (already) reduce price they show here. And you can game on them...
You are the same kind of people that did not want a files system on the iPad or that accept the moniker "Pro" on anything. I guess all you do with your devices is consume media.
You don’t have the guts to admit you’re wrong, I get it perfectly. So it’s got a top-end CPU and top-end SSD, but you’re calling it a “mid-grade” laptop because previous year models had issues? Oh, and you can’t run “numerical simulations” all day without thermal throttling, ok. Just keep moving those goalposts. You might try a grammar checker too, wow.
I just bought the i9 version about five days ago from Best Buy.com. Does anyone know if I can get the discount?
5 minute chat and they took care of it. Man Best Buy really is a different company than the one that was going out of business possibly at one point.
On a side note, I do understand some of the gripes, however, PERSONALLY, I love this unit. Albeit it is bran new right now, I am extremely happy with my purchase.
