Comment: Apple's Spring Loaded Event – The Good the Bad... And Almost No Ugly

Two Mac series are still waiting for the changeover from Intel to Apple processors. According to the latest rumors, the iMac will be ready in spring 2022, which leaves only the Mac Pro. We have compiled all recent reports about the Mac Pro 2022 in this article.

The first figures for the graphics performance of the M1 Max in Geekbench are available - and the chip scores of course much better than the M1 or the graphics cards of the Intel-based Apple notebooks in the "Metal Score".

Currently, only two desktop Macs rely on M-chips. The Mac mini and The 24" iMac. The 27" model still relies on Intel and is no longer an exciting alternative compared to the latest MacBook Pro. However, this could change soon.

The end to the long wait finally arrived during Apple's "Unleashed" event when Cupertino revealed the AirPods 3. Along with offering an entire new row of features and lasting longer, the latest AirPods differ considerably in terms of appearance. As well as showing off the new AirPods, Apple also presented the "Apple Music Voice Plan".

Apple released the second generation of its Silicon Macs – along with some impressive specifications. Just now, the first Geekbench benchmark results are available – and they more than 100% confirm Apple's claims.

Now, even more hardware details concerning the new MacBook Pro have become known... and Apple's decision upon solely HDMI 2.0 has led to some disappointment. In contrast, the improvement of the entire Pro notebook's audio system comes well met.

Apple has finally named a date for the official release of macOS Monterey. However, there were already a few clues beforehand, and the announcement comes as no surprise. Monterey will be released Monday of next week, according to Apple.

Apple just presented the long-awaited, brand new MacBook Pro, which has received a great deal of innovation. The exterior and interior have undergone considerable change in the product's most major redesign in recent years. The device's performance is also spectacular – exceeding even the prognoses.

In a recent interview, Intel's newest CEO (and newly anointed Apple critic) recently admitted that Apple's done an excellent job with its latest M1 chip. However, Intel's marketing department has viewed the chip in a less favourable light over the past months. A new Twitter thread from the company's "Go PC" marketing campaign subtly takes aim at Apple all over again.

Since iOS 15, Apple has granted users another means of accessing their data should they somehow forget the password to their own device or Apple ID. In this article, we'll detail how to take the appropriate measures to do so on your own iPhone.

Although Apple has always equipped several iPad models with USB-C ports, the iPhone relies solely upon Cupertino's in-house "lightning" interface. A well-versed tech student has, however, just demonstrated on YouTube how a smartphone from Cupertino can be switched to USB-C.

With the recently released beta versions, Apple has once again implemented several changes. We summarize what has changed on the bugfix front as well as in Safari and Universal Control.

There is still one big Apple event this year and now the date has finally been announced. Cupertino invites the streaming receivers again on October 18 and will probably announce the future of the Pro Mac at the "Unleashed" event.

Numerous reports are predicting the release of a new iPhone SE generation come springtime of next year. A Japanese magazine has offered up more information concerning the potential device's specifications, according to which – Apple should remain faithful to the current design.

Siri is seamlessly integrated into iOS. However, Apple's voice assistant does not have the best reputation among many users. Amazon's Alexa is considered more powerful and can also be used on an iPhone. Until now, you always had to start the app, but now there is a widget for the home screen.

Just recently, Apple published a touching video about the work of co-founder Steve Jobs, in which numerous important stages and statements were reproduced. Now the work is finally also available on YouTube - and embedded in this article.

Not all users report an unproblematic update to iPadOS 15.0.2: For some users, the update fails. What particularly annoys those affected: The previous version is already accompanied by this error.

Officially, only macOS runs on M1 Macs; Apple does not plan to support other systems natively. A group of dedicated Linux developers has nevertheless set about adapting the open-source OS for Apple's notebooks and desktops with ARM chips. The first ready-to-use version is now available.

Apple has already greatly softened the strict regulations for processing payments in the App Store. Now, another court defeat followed - and with the Dutch ruling, the business model could thus also fall in Europe. However, Apple has probably gambled it away itself, because Cupertino has presented a rather strange performance in recent months.

With the exception of the "clones" in the mid-90s, Apple's OS only ran on Apple computers. It could have turned out quite differently, because Jobs wanted to bring Mac OS to Dell PCs after his return. Dell waved it off - only to take up the idea again later.

Numerous major banks are increasingly concerned about the fees they have to pay to Apple for Apple Pay. Visa has now presented a system to leave Apple at least partially empty-handed - but Apple could have much stronger leverage.
