Apple's iPhone development roadmap runs several years into the future and the company is continually working with suppliers on several successive iPhone models simultaneously, which is why we sometimes get rumored feature leaks so far ahead of launch. The iPhone 17 series is no different – already we have some idea of what to expect from Apple's 2025 smartphone lineup. If you plan to skip...
Macbook pro is so junky and heavy. It’s like the 2013 macbook. Back to future or back to the past? Lol. Would consider buying it when it is as slim as the last intel macbook pro.
Mac Mini at $599 is a steal. Glad, Apple was able to lower the price. This has to be the cheapest Mac.
It's a steal alright... by Apple after you upgrade the memory from 8GB to 16GB at a cost of $200 or an additional $400 if you want to max it out at 24GB
The Mac Studio appears to be a better deal than the M2 Pro Mac Mini when you bump up the RAM to 32GB. Also you get 10Gb/second Ethernet included. The only downsize to the M1 Mac Studio is the older HDMI 2.0 port instead of the newer HDMI 2.1 port on the M2 Pro and higher models, and it only has 10 CPU cores on the M1 Max Mac Studio.
