The future of Apple Fitness+ is "under review" amid a reorganization of the service, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.
In the latest edition of his "Power On" newsletter, Gurman said that Apple Fitness+ remains one of the company's "weakest digital offerings." The service apparently suffers from high churn and little revenue.
Nevertheless, Fitness+ has a small, loyal fanbase that...

Since the iPhone Air launched in September, there have been reports of poor sales...

HTX Studio this week shared the results from a six-month battery test that compared how fast charging and slow charging can affect battery life over time.
Using six iPhone 12 models, the channel set up a system to drain the batteries from five percent and charge them to 100 percent over and over again. Three were fast charged, and three were slow charged.
Another set of iPhones underwent...
Good luck with Best Buy. I ordered a Studio Display with VESA mount earlier this week and they bungled it from every angle. It was broken in transit and automatically returned to them. They didn't contact me and just cancelled the order.
The VESA model is sold out now, and when I reached out to them they refused to let me swap the purchase for the regular stand model, which is the exact same price.
Instead, after over two hours with customer support, I get to wait 7-20 days for the refund to process, by which point I'm unlikely to get this deal again.
It’s best to not have expensive stuff like TVs delivered
I'm not sure what kind of point you are trying to make here. Logistics are a gigantic industry and nearly everything purchased is moved using several different modes of transportation. If the majority of shipped items broke the modern economy would break down.
Not that I should feel the need to explain myself to you, but neither Best Buy nor Apple had (or have) the VESA mount version of the Apple Studio Display available for store pick-up. I would have happily gone to collect it myself.
ooo, those $599 256GB iPad Air deals are really nice. Rare to see a 20% discount on brand-new iPads, even on Black Friday. And my wife could really use an upgrade from her iPad Air 3.
The question is, however... how nice of a husband am I? ?
