Also there are some really entertaining comments on the Ipad video if you dig a little for them. --- Quote from: RABicle on November 19, 2018, 08:44:06 PM ---Vicious and cruel video. And it's just your bluetooth headset that sucks Pokepal. Wireless audio is fine and has been fine for years and doesn't involve tanged cords. Airpods are like magic. they always pair to my iMac, MBA and iPhone and they always seem to know which one I'm listening to. --- End quote --- The headset I'm using is a Bose soundlink headset. it's stupidly high end, costed an arm and a leg to get at the time, is also capable of connecting through a 3.5mm connection through an adapter for Nintendo stuff, and I can guarantee you that it isn't the problem here. |

Bloody hell, you troll up an Apple thread and then turn around and confess to fully swallowing Bose's premium sound for boomers nonsense. My Bose Soundlink Mini broke exactly 2 months out of warranty. The support lady blamed me for not charging it properly and wanted $129 for a repair. It's absolutely your headphones. |

I've used multiple other headsets with the exact same problems though. If airpods work well than that's great, but based on my experience they're the outlier and not the norm. And to be clear they were a gift, they've also lasted around 4 years now and they're still going strong. Probably wouldn't do bose again because of the price but still. |

Pretty aggressive pricing for both Apple Arcade and AppleTV: $4.99 per month for each. And if you buy a new Mac, iPhone, or iPad, you get one year of AppleTV included. Not a bad deal. Granted, I still don’t particularly care because I just signed up for three years of Disney+ for even less, and it already has content I want. However, I am admittedly impressed with the pricing because most analysts had AppleTV at $9.99 per month. The other announcements weren’t especially interesting to me. This year’s iPhone was hella leaked months ago. For the first time, I’m going to hang onto my current iPhone for an extra year because next year is expected to be a major refresh year. I’ll probably have the battery replaced on my iPhone 8. I’m also holding off on the Apple Watch Series 5 since I want to get one at the same time as a new iPhone so I guess I’m stuck with this custom title for another year. I was hoping for a MacBook Pro refresh. It got a spec update in June, but there are rumors that Apple plans to refresh the line again in late 2019, returning to scissor-switch keyboards but with reinforced keys. I’m not fucking with that butterfly keyboard nonsense Apple has been trying to make happen for like four years now. My last MacBook Pro still turns on and works (just hella slow now), and I want that kind of durability. |

I'm probably holding out for next year's iPhone as well. I've still got the X, which I've been extremely happy with. As for AppleTV+, I'm not that interested in another streaming service even at that price, but they're making a series based on Isaac Asimov's Foundation series, which are my favorite sci-fi novels ever, so I'm sure I'll cave and get it for that. |
