"The true reason behind the lack of 32 GB or DDR4 is Intel. Skylake does not support LPDDR4 (LP for low power) RAM. Kabylake is set to include support, but only for the U category of chips. So no LPDDR4 support for mobile until 2018 I think.
One example is the Dell XPS 13. On the Dell XPS 13 version, you cannot go for 32 GB of RAM. Meanwhile, the 15 inches does give you that option, but you have to sacrifice battery life for it.
Another example is the surface book, they can’t include 32gb. Only goes up to 16gb.
These computers use LPDDR3 which is supported. Many mite make the argument that apple could have used the LPDDR3 version, but how would they look if they did that for the 15 inch MBP only?"

Just got the iphone7 bc my 5s wouldnt hold a charge anymore. Incredibly, its exactly like my last 3 iphones.
Are they even working over there at apple after steve died? What do they actually do there now? I dun get it.
- pst. you can get a replacement battery off Amazon for like 15$.Peter
- the camera is just v.slightly better but not in anyway noticeable by the average phone cam user :)fadein11
- That's a huge understatement. The camera is far better than the 5s AND it has the ability to shoot RAW.colab
- yep better but not noticeable to the majority selfie Apple user - selfies in RAW? come on. The users are not photograhers by and large.fadein11

If I didnt know anything and someone just told me this was a little bigger version of the 5s, I would believe them. Same exact phone.
- except it has rounded edges and corners instead of the metal surround and hard edgesmonospaced
- ...and a way better camera and the haptic feedback (I've got an "SE" so I have no idea what this is like though).evilpeacock

Just browsing the comments on a promoted tweet from Apple regarding their new Macbook Pros and they are being eviscerated. The price hike being more the target than even the unwanted function/touch bar.

Apple marketing VP Phil Schiller responds to backlash over MacBook Pro design
- They took a bold risk by being lazy and adding shiny baubles instead of worthwhile and productive updates.face_melter

Whoa!!! After a whole week I finally found 2 difference between the iphone7 and 5s. The camera on the 7 does depth of field (sometimes), and my ear is constantly turning on the speaker button. Never happened a single time with my 5s. Happens constantly with the 7. I love this new feature, especially when Im out in public in quiet places on the phone, like on a train.
- do you find some sick pleasure in buying each and every new Apple product the instant it comes out, just to post about how much you fail at using them?monospaced
- monospaced literally takes it personally********
- but I love him
almost as much as he loves apple******** - lolmonospaced
- I dont buy each and every new apple product. I just said my last iphone was the 5s.CygnusZero4
- Im still using an ipad mini 2 which has to be like 3 years old now. The wifi sucks on it though. Wont hold a connection.CygnusZero4
- I has a macbook but it was about 7 years old and died. I have a 1.5 year old imac which is insanely slow to the point where I can barely use a web browser on itCygnusZero4

"The "iPhone 8" could have wireless charging"
https://www.cnet.com/news/iphone…So brave. Much courage.
...meanwhile, back in Android land...
- The future is yesterday!ETM
- so we're complaining about additional features as well?inteliboy
- Complaining about Apple having lost its edge, and now they're even slow at copying.zarkonite
- incorporating after isn't copyingmonospaced
- Meanwhile the pixel looks identical to an iPhone at first glance. Surprise surprise.monospaced
- Meanwhile it also looks like an HTC with some glass on the back.face_melter
- Pixel doesn't look identical to iphone, even at second glance. Similar size and similar colour with glass screen...craigatkinson
- lol apple didn't create the latest iPhone look anyway********
- Others did similar things first. It's a screen with some metal around it, hard to be completely original when they're all basically the same thing.********
- It's the OS that counts. The UX of iOS is atrocious compared with the latest Android. I have an ipad for music and I loathe using it for anything else********
- don't take it so personally ;)monospaced
- "incorporating after isn't copying"
Man that gave me a good chuckle. Thanks mono.Peter - Funny but true. That is why so much stuff is the same. Grids of apps, form factor, etcmonospaced
- Not taking it personally at all haha, just stating my experience with the two...********

BATTLE AT THE BOTTOM:
12in MacBook vs 13in MacBook Pro
vs 12.5in Razer Blade Stealth
vs 12.9in iPad Pro- interesting comparison. They should use the newer razer blade stealth though. It has improved specs.section_014

http://www.macrumors.com/2016/11…- Free dongles for everyone!yuekit
- Absolute wankers********
- Someone over there is having a tough time with decisions! With all those billions, how could they not think people would hate paying for expensive dongles!formed
- Sadly, I feel like saying this would never have happened with Jobs. It's all numbers/profits driven vs. vision.formed
- I give them 1-2 years more, riding the iPhone8 wave (assuming it's a big upgrade), then they need something big or they'll fade.formed
- wanna bet? ;)monospaced
- $1000 on someone's gonna complain about iPhone8pango
- I'll bet that if they don't come out with something beyond a nice iphone 8 they'll start to fade, sure. iPhone is losing market share.formed
- I haven't read one positive review about the new laptops. So they are riding on momentum, which can fade if there isn't something new and shiny.formed
- Yeah. This time for realz. thing is they can probably not release a product for 15 years and be fine considering how much cash they have on hand.monospaced
- Apple have billions sitting banks they can't use for tax reasons. All kinds of shit happening behind closed doors.monoboy
- We'll see. If they showed some new thinking, I'd buy more stock, but it's been a few years now of nothing new. So buying more MS stock, I like their diversityformed
- People complain about every single Apple product launch, every single time. It's an angry nerd echo chamber that goes on for decades.inteliboy
- @formed, not investing in Microsoft would be stupid ... it's good to diversify and I've certainly done the same :)monospaced
