Apple Boosts AppleCare+ Monthly Prices by 50 Cents in Latest Increase

To be fair, if I spend $1300 on a laptop, it only makes sense to get apple care since repairs will be astronomical otherwise. I just paid $100 after I COMPLETELY destroyed my MBP M3 Pro Display by dropping a monitor on it. Repair would’ve cost $700.

Apple reportedly skipping M6 Pro and M6 Max for M7 chips

This news both gives me hope for a revolution in M6 and takes it away. I really hope that Apple, in M6, thanks to TSMC technologies, will implement something similar to mobile HBM memory. Instead of buying fully packaged LPDDR chips, they would purchase only the bare dies without packaging and stack

M5 Max with inconsistent performance and throttling issues - Apple MacBook Pro 14 Review

I and my employees literally ran multiple 2019 i9 MBPs into failure. Worst MacBook Pro model of all time. After my personal one failed and was repaired by Apple FOR THE SECOND TIME, I gave it to my son for college and told him to abuse it. It unfortunately didn’t fail again and he bought an M3 Pro M

should i get this deal?

If the main goal is AI/ML, model training, or anything that relies heavily on GPU compute, then spending that much money on a machine without an NVIDIA GPU doesn’t make sense. With that kind of budget, I would go for a laptop with 32 GB RAM and a dedicated 16 GB NVIDIA GPU, then install Linux on it.

Insight into the MacOS Tahoe design team...

Yep! To the boys and girls at the shiny doughnut in Cupertino: Thanks for trying to push VisionOS 26 for the Mac, a.k.a Tahoe. I just put a new battery in my iPhone 14 Pro Max (iOS 18.7) and I have my MBP M3 Max (macOS 15.7). I won't be buying anything new from Apple for at least 3 years. Apple need

Any fix for audio quality?

Same problem on a MacBook Pro M3 Pro. Already have a support request for it, but honestly I don't expect much of it.

Anyone know if they’re actually that bad for playing games

Also, the dedicated/integrated graphics is a bit moot with Macs as the SoC GPU cores of silicon are powerful enough to rival most dedicated gaming laptops. I beg to differ, I owned an M3 Pro 16" MBP next to my Zephyrus G14 (RTX 4060, Ryzen 9) and the Zephyrus absolutely blew the MacBook Pro out of t

Sluggish/Laggy UI and general bad optimization on Mac

That mentioned 16" MacBook M3 Pro is a clean install. A reboot or closing my Safari Browser with 1-2 tabs doesn't change anything. Any other ideas, perhaps? Like I said, on the M4 Pro C1 runs noticeably faster, but still not always smooth or without any lag. But I can't believe that a M3 Pro with 12

Did i get scammed?

I brought my nearly $4,000 MacBook M3 Pro in because there was a single line on the screen that turned the whole display black. The laptop was otherwise in perfect condition and I’d only had it for less than a year, so it should’ve been covered under Apple warranty. They charged me $600 for a top as

Is apple gonna drop the ball on M5 Pro for logic?

The issue with M3 Pro (Pro specifically - not Max) is that apple changed core structure from 8p/4e cores to 6p/6e cores. Since logic can’t leverage efficiency cores efficiently, M3 Pro underperforms compared to M1/2 Pro with more performance cores.
