With tvOS 17, Apple added the ability to make FaceTime calls with the Apple TV 4K. Since the Apple TV 4K doesn’t have a camera, Apple implemented Continuity Camera, which allows the Apple TV 4K to connect to an iPhone and use its camera. That, however, introduced a new problem: what do you do with the iPhone when making a FaceTime call on Apple TV 4K? Prop it up under your TV against a book? Awkwardly hold it in your hand while looking at your TV? Use some two-sided tape and stick your iPhone on the wall above the TV? Читать дальше...

Apple has been fined an astonishing 1.8 billion euros (roughly $1.95 billion) by EU regulators. The news was reported Monday by The New York Times and follows a five-year investigation into alleged anticompetitive behavior.

Along with the launch of the new M3 MacBook Air, Apple shifted around its laptop range to make room for a new budget model. Gone is the M1 MacBook Air that had been in the lineup since 2020 and in its place is a new $999 model: the 13-inch M2 MacBook Air.

While the price is the same, the newest budget laptop is a huge upgrade in value. The M1 model had Apple’s old design, chip, and screen, while the M2 model is an upgrade in every way. It has a newer design with slimmer bezels... Читать дальше...

With numerous new products on the way this spring, we’ve been anxiously waiting for Apple to send out invitations for its spring event sometime in early March. However, with the new M3 MacBook Air arriving Monday morning, it appears as though there won’t be one after all. 

Apple has a hot-and-cold relationship with spring events. We got one in 2022 when Apple unveiled the Mac Studio and iPhone SE 3, and in 2021 with the M1 iMac and AirTags. But in 2023, Apple launched the M2 MacBook Pro and Mac mini... Читать дальше...

After launching the M3 chip in the 14-inch MacBook Pro last October, Apple has updated the 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Air with the faster chips in the same thin and light design.

Along with the M3 chip—8-Core CPU/8-Core GPU in the base 13-inch model; 8-Core CPU/10-Core GPU in all other configurations—Apple has also upgraded the Wi-Fi from 6 to 6E and added support for up to two external displays when the lid is closed. Previous MacBook Air models only supported a single display, as does the M3 MacBook Pro. Читать дальше...
