Just like how we got the A10 deep dive, or idk, any reviews that are relevant currently. Galaxy S8, HTC U11, new Macbooks, GTX 1050/1050Ti, RX 480 deepdive etc.
Or y'know, the good old GTX 980/980Ti SLI performance deep dive, or really anything that was said to be "next week" or "soon".
What do people at Anandtech do really? Review mundane stuff that nobody gives a shit about? An ECS mITX motherboard? SSDs from HP? It's all just tech blogs when I scroll down. Not to mention the godawful clickbait ads they have enabled as well.
It depends on the editor. Ian's specialty is CPUs, Billy's is SSDs, Nate's is GPUs, Ganesh is storage, etc. Some things we can't do due to a lack of time; others due to a lack of manpower (things often come at once). But it's never for a lack of a desire to do them, just a means to do them quickly.
Lol I kinda do wonder what they do all day. They don't really post a lot of content comparatively... And they seem to review some obscure products or ones with niche appeal.
That one was the unfortunate victim of Josh leaving at a bad time.
I won't set a hard date on an A11 article, but between myself and a new hand joining us soon to help with mobile articles, it's very much something I intend to dig into. Especially this new Apple GPU.
aTV has supported third party controllers since forever, and has allowed games that ONLY use 3rd party controllers (don't have to work with the Siri remote) for at least a year.
"Requirements: Live streaming uses Apple’s HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) technology. HLS requires an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with Safari on iOS 9.0 or later, a Mac with Safari on macOS v10.11 or later, or a PC with Microsoft Edge on Windows 10. Streaming via Apple TV requires an Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation) with software 6.2 or later or an Apple TV (4th generation)."
lol your fitness band runs at 16 MHz; not 2000 MHz. And it doesn't have a 10 mile transmitter, nor a 2K display; so just quit trolling while you're behind.
You want a wrist computer for the same reason you want a pocket computer. Duh. Look at one thing faster CPU enables on tha aWatch 3 - enough computational power for the watch to speak back to you (starting to flesh out the voice UI) rather than just writing response text
Am I the only one who is surprised that Apple still canj't do better sensors or a better battery life on their Apple Watch? Who cares about phone features in a watch? Sports/tracking/health smartwatch is about sensors and, charging daily for a watch is a major nuisance.
They have the biggest budget and the biggest team of all and this is the best they can do? Same sensors as before, now just with a few arrythmia features (i.e. sw upgrade). Still the same battery life (yes, the cpu is faster).
Hopefully we'll see some more interesting health sensors in 3rd party (or 1st party) watch bands. It's already been pointed out that putting in any kind of sensors needing FDA approval would delay the core watch hardware. We know a blood sugar monitor is being developed at least (since Tim Cook has spoken about it).
Big disappointment is what the Apple Watch has always been. It hasn't redefined the watch like the iPhone did for phones, not even close. All it's been able to do is compete well in a market of fairly useless gadgets that people are struggling to find true uses for.
Until someone finds and creates a killer feature for a smart watch they just will never take off.
A miband with heart rate monitoring for $8-15 ($8 is the current sale price) is all 90% of people need. It does everything well and lasts for 30 days on a single battery charge. It can be worn in the shower and it tracks your sleeps. Why would anyone spend so much money on a device that must be charged daily and doesn't really provide additional benefits for most people?
Yup, and the 8 still has 2 GB of RAM and the 8 Plus has 3 GB. Apple does a great job with improving the performance of the CPU & GPU every year, but the rest of the hardware seems to be stuck with incremental upgrades. Then again, this is Apple we're talking about. Or any other company that has the mindshare of consumers and brand cachet - BMW, Nvidia, Intel, Apple etc., milk, milk, milk!!!
I'll take 3 GB of RAM (never noticed any limitation to 2) over having 6 GB of RAM with a slow CPU/GPU that I'll notice in audio apps and games. I'd rather be "milked" on specs I don't notice than specs I do.
I complained about 1GB on iOS for a while, but 2 on my 7 has almost never been limiting. Days old tabs 12 deep, sure, I'll get a reload, but generally it's super good at memory management. Contrast to Samsung where 8GB still reloads more stuff than iOS.
It does seem the X at least should have gotten 4 just for future proofing though.
Just wow! They added wireless charging! So revolutionary! Good news apple is going to help Qi become more widely known and available because it's so hard to get right now.
How are you using the device without looking at the screen of your phone? Why can't the camera see your face to authenticate you if you have an unobstructed view of the screen?
If you don't want to look at the screen while you use the device, then just use the "Hey Siri" activation phrase for the voice interface.
As with all the phones that support wireless charging, you can still plug in a wire and charge that way if you prefer.
It will depend on the camera angles, but right now it's relatively simple to unlock your phone on the table by you while you're in a meeting and discretely skim an incoming email without actually having to pick up your phone.
Sure you can still use the passcode, but depending on your institutional device management settings (mine in minimum 8 characters with a special character just to unlock) that can still way more effort than it needs to be.
It's not a dealbreaker by any means, but I'd still prefer to have fingerprint scanning if it were an option.
Really? It's so easy to steal your fingerprint. Never bothered with the fingerprint reader. Passcode is more secure, and still on option with iPhone X. No need to pick it up if you don't want to. And if you still want the silly reader, get an iPhone 8.
My argument is for convenience versus security. But to counter your argument, face unlock on android has been proven far less secure. It remains to be seen how secure apples implementation is.
Some issues I don't see addressed are things like minimum effective distance and angle. Unlocking this phone seems like it will be awkward at best in places like crowded elevators or subways. TouchID is a more subtle way of unlocking my iPhone and I much prefer that.
Given them showing a training sesson for Face ID that had a user rotate their face to show it from all angles, it seems like they took having the system work from different angles into account.
We'll see.
I have a feeling that if you can see the screen, the camera can see you back.
Something I thought too. But why not an ultrasound fingerprint scanner under the screen? I got hold of a leekco (letv) test device which uses it perfectly. It works even under water! This face recognition is not safe for those who have twin brothers or sisters.
Apple's been working on that tech for a while now, and both the Samsung Note 8 and iPhone X were supposedly going to have it, but it just wasn't working well enough when it came time to ship them, according to the rumor sites.
Here's a story about an Apple patent filed back in 2015.
I code both for Android and iOS, and Android animations flat out suck. That's why they're quick, not much is happening. Any time I want 3D animation of Android views, I need to resort to OpenGL and do it natively; whereas iOS has had CoreAnimation and 4x4 matrix support for 10 years now.
It does not make sense at all to call the top end iphone the iPhone X.. that's just rubbing against the grain of every apple product they've ever made. It should have been called the iPhone 8 Pro.. They are using the X moniker way to early.. they should have waited a 3-4 more until it was time.
That's not an apt comparison. Windows 9 was skipped because of legacy apps that had code for "If Windows version starts with 9" and such. The jump from iPhone 8 to iPhone X (pronounced ten) doesn't make a lot of sense.
There are hundreds of projects on Github showing code looking for that exact shortcut, so the ship has not sailed. It was never confirmed by Microsoft, but it was a reasonable explanation. Many apps used workarounds for Windows 9x because of various bugs, or refused to run at all.
Windows 1.0 and 2.0 were actual products. Windows NT started at 3.1 so that users would understand it was at version parity (and thus experience parity) with Windows 3.1.
Apple pulled X/ten has no explanation so far and looks complete arbitrary.
Note what's missing. - aWatch3 Edition was not mentioned. The Apple Store page shows it exists, but no excitement about new materials. So ceramic is considered a nice compromise, luxurious "enough" but also cheap "enough"?
- iPhone SE was not updated. Neither was iPad mini. Those were two second tier products I figured would be at least updated in the store, even if they didn't get a keynote timeslot.

"LydiaPollard - Wednesday, September 13, 2017 - link I just got paid $6784 working off my laptop this month. And if you think that’s cool, my divorced friend has twin toddlers and made over $9k her first month. It feels so good making so much money when other people have to work for so much less. This is what I do.... http://cutt.us/pc6ir"
Dude, you're off your squirrel. Windows isn't spyware and your posts are incoherent. I've seen plenty of them and I am so sorry Ryan et. al. have to deal with your insanity.
Kirin 970=5.5 billion transistors, A11 only 4.3 billion transistors. NUP is tree times more powerful, 1.92TFLOP vs 0.6TFLOP in A11. Modem cat 18 vs .... does not matter.
As much as I dislike Apple, I really feel sorry for what they have become. This release screams desperation and fear from Samsung, from hardware, to naming.
They can make all the profits, but even they know they're not even half what they used to be.
As much of an ass Steve used to be, it's a fact that he knew how to steer that ship. I guess the difference is in ambition. He wanted Apple to be "the best" at all costs, but now they want it to stay a profit machine at all costs. The difference really shows.
In way you could say that- Apple didn't start more or less destroying Android phones in SoC tech until after Jobs- after they released the iPhone 5 and every year following. There are any number of other ways in which iPhones have frequently been ahead of Android in software and hardware. The reverse is also true though. It's almost like there are different companies focusing on different aspects of their devices. Amazing!
Apple never designed an SoC that was "ahead" of anything in the market from Samsung or Qualcomm. I'm not sure about the A11, will have to see, but the previous ones were slower and less efficient in both cpu and gpu. The A5 was interesting at the time in terms of efficiency, but it turned out to be nothing but bad and misinformed benchmarking.
I don't blaim you for not knowing this, I blaim the incompetence of tech reviewers, in which most are nothing but sellouts.
I got tired of talking about this subject. The misinformation out there is flat out ridiculous.
There are a number of sites including this one which have conducted repeatable tests using scientific methods. All show that an A series SoC is better overall in most performance metrics to the equivalent generation from any number of vendors in the Android space. They put their results out their.
What do you, an anonymous Apple-hating nobody on the internet, offer to back up your assertions with? You write like a religious zealot - "my God is better than yours". So when it comes to credibility, they have it and you, ... well....
So he they shipped a 64-but ARM implementation a year ahead of anyone else while the others were still saying 64-bit wasn’t needed for mobile because they didn’t have it, that was...?
Apple has always been about vertical integration, which often works better than superior hardware. Innovation has stopped there with the 4S. Since then, it was larger screens, fingerprints (barely any VI there), and then a plus model. All of which are to compete with Samsung (their only competitor).
Their last few processors sucked outside their intended use (not a bad thing) and their "fusion" interconnect attempt was broken, a-la Exynos 5410. They're only reaping the benefits of the well executed software, the special treatment from carriers and their closed ecosystem, which enables them to make features available to a vast audience, opening up a compelling platform for developers. This isn't a small feat by any means, but it has been set in motion and executed well under the leadership of Jobs. THAT was the real innovation IMO. The rest is catchup, BS hype, and a slew of intended misinformation by the tech community and the media. Siri, which came afterwards has utterly FAILED as a platform. Apple pay doesn't holds a candle to Samsung pay for a very minor feature (MST). And now what? FaceID? Seriously?
History is sad. Samsung, their nemesis, understood Jobs much more than his crew at Apple, and their doing something about it even with Google's massive sabotage attempts.
Stop trolling, darklight69 is right. And you don't even know elementary things like benchmarks Anandtech have done for many years. Plus Samsung had huge leverage because knew everything about Apple being its hardware supplier. If the company next door Intel would be Apple's supplier things would be much different
-- As much of an ass Steve used to be, it's a fact that he knew how to steer that ship. I guess the difference is in ambition.
no. the difference is that Apple/Steve was on the early slope of the asymptote of progress. Apple/Tim, alas, is on the ending verrrrrrrry slow glide to stasis. see my battery comment above. and the plain fact that neither Apple nor anyone else has come up with a new *function* (like the Three Steve boasted about in the beginning) for a phone or a watch. just evermore bits of lipstick for these pigs. the rest of the industry is in the same boat, of course.
you can only "innovate" when there are known unknowns. science/tech has explained 99.9% of the macro world. these days, science/tech is exploring cosmology and artificial sub-atomic particles. neither will make any difference to the macro world.
No. Innovation is in platforms and ecosystems. You need the right dedication and balls to expand and/or create a new one. That, now, is dead at Apple, IMO.
Yes. Codes still exist both as a fallback and as a double authentication mechanism (e.g. when you're changing the FaceID settings and Apple wants to be VERY sure it's you).
Apple GPU means Imagination is basically dead. I hope they can find a way, but...
Also, Apple will probably start creating their own proprietary GPU instructions, so I wouldn't be surprised if they will further lock out all hackintosh or vm macs down the line. Lock out everything that they didn't manufacture 100%, and planned obsolescence more and more. Your two year old mac doesn't support these new instructions? No updates for you, only a security patch, that will mostly slow down and make your current machine a pain to use.
One quick question: Will itunes 4k titles work through the desktop that is connected to a 4k tv? Or do we have to necessarily purchase apple 4k tv in order to view 4k content?
Just like any other movie in the Itunes store, you can download it to itunes and watch it on your computer (or strip the DRM from it, etc), or you can play it on any apple device.
jordanclock says..... "Dude, you're off your squirrel. Windows isn't spyware and your posts are incoherent. I've seen plenty of them and I am so sorry Ryan et. al. have to deal with your insanity." -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey Ryan, Why won't you delete these personal attacks from Jordanclock who is CLEARLY an insane piece of crap?
Calling my "Windows is Spyware" posts incoherent or referring to them as insanity without ANY evidence should NOT be tolerated at this website
I have CLEARLY shown evidence for Windows being a Spyware/Extortionware platform on several occasions and NO-ONE at this site has offered ANY evidence to disprove those factual... evidence backed claims
It's a shame that Ryan has turned this into a political issue and pulled my posts for offering clear evidence and yet allows these nuttcases like jordanclock to post hate speech without a shred of evidence
Am I alone with the feelings that the public thought "Where the hell are innovations? We have seem most of them and much more in numerous cheapy Asian phones"
It's Amazing that we're in 2017, and Apple STILL releases iPhones with 720p resolutions. Whether one called them Retina Displays, or Divine Displays, the facts seem very disappointing.
The QHD Display in a lot of Smartphones is like Exactly FOUR TIMES the resolution of 720p.
I am guessing, that a huge amount of the supposed processing power advantage of iPhones is the disappointing displays.
Also, I believe that the iPhone X tops out at 625 Nits of brightness, whereas as other Flagships, including the Note 8 (1200 Nits) are brighter.
To be Honest I wish this came out last year before this current slew of snapdragon 835 flagships came out. Basically for the same reason I wish for all phone innovation... As it seems to push technology expectations in other products or even drive the state of the art. Which is why a part of my soul dies every time a new line of important phones is released ( like the newest iPhone obviously ) and there is no 4k display. Or a 4k display is included but comment sections dismiss the need for as much and apparently must have no desire for ubiquitously adopted ( thus cheaper ) screen display fidelity with extremely tight dot pitches which would be a boon to what may be possible sooner in VR/AR experience fidelity and the current sad state with a screen door effected display experience and FOV compromise. With AMOLED ubiquity in mobile... That most peoples QHD mobile experience is easily their superior display experience out of any device the average consumer enjoys... Then self emitting diode contrast ratio concern awareness and hopefully yield research an adoption only stands to benefit from the army of iPhone zealots out there sure to now tout that OLED is finally done right ( LOL. whether as much is actually true or true because it's now the Apple flagship experience? I could care less! If it light's a fire for Samsung to develop a self emitting QLED variant quicker that competes with current OLED TV set pricing? Guaranteeing better contrast ratio and sharp rich blacks in my lacking computer monitor gui experience? Then what's good fer me is hopefully delivered by Apple ) Kind of vague on the AR tech? Did Apple have a headset example ( or 3rd party headset vendor inference? ) Was sort of hoping for some FOV optics pushing boundaries that other manufacturers would then look bad in comparison too? ( which admittedly would not be hard to achieve ). After the reaction the Unreal star wars demo got earlier was sorta expecting a bit more AR love pushed by Apple?
Speaking of Apple innovation pushing the industry... Seems like slow motion has been stuck across the mobile camera space at 720p for most. And even in the professional camera market... It seems 4K has been a rock stuck at 30p ( unless one spends starting at up to $7k on a cinema solution ) So 60p 4K on a device as popular as iPhone should be a huge Boone! Light a fire under the ass for other manufacturers to at least match the same 4K and 1080p slo-mo capture? 60p being a nice workable number for 24p projects where 6 frames stolen from each 30 frames equals half a sec more at 12 frames equaling a 2.5x slow down at 24p! Which isn't the best but at least provides room to do some ramps up or down and is plenty slow to add a bit of style to a simple walk or run cycle. Either way... more frames allows for more tracking fidelity to smooth motion in post processing as well! And has been a long time coming. Hopefully wont have to wait another 3 years till competition achieves 120fps in a consumer 4K camera? Sort reaching a windows capable qualcomm era where the next couple of die shrinks might add 4 relevant competitors to hopefully effect what is the state of the CPU/GPU art in desktop computing?
So I have my fingers crossed for that A11 investigation as well... I do not understand the purchase confirmation bias myself? Personally I would rather hear that the new A11 already makes my new Snapdragon flagship phone purchase feel archaic ( it could happen? :) )
Kind of expected the X to be a targeted Phablet large screen device and like the newer iPad Pro strategy... Now include pressure sensitive pen enabled display screens? Could care less if they did not include as much to save the battery space unlike Samsung? But not make issue out of it in case not having a recess for storage caused controversy? Never had an iPhone... Have any of them been pen enabled? Got started in computing with Apple because of the Avid when Apple was considered for the computer with Creatives in mind. Seems odd that for a sketch pad device that would fit in my front shirt pocket ( Steve Jobs Floppy style )... That I have to rely on the Samsung Note. Obviously many people who use Apples today must no longer have any draftsmanship? ( which just seems odd? )
The i Phone X is going to be very successful,it`s a beautiful phone.
However i find it odd that it`s impossible for the phone to display an image at its native resolution. Also disappointed that the maximum display size for a 16:9 ratio video will be less than 5" diagonal .
I really like IPHONE X (iPhone 10) with a slim 5″8 inch OLED screen, FaceID 3D recognition, chip Bionic A11, the camera supports Portrait mode both before and after, the frame around the body of Iphone X is made of polished metal, wireless charging QI. There is no TouchID and Home button, so every operation will be a swipe on the screen. Its amazing features will change the phone industry in the world.

How happy I am knowing that such a wonderful product as Apple was created by a person who was able to become a leader around the world, while not losing his sanity! I've been using iPhones for the last 10 years, and now, I can write articles about leaders with incredible comfort. All thanks to macbook m1. if you are interested in learning about the results of my work, you can read on https://artscolumbia.org/free-essays/leadership/ there is an article about Steve Jobs. she needs to be looked for. I am very interested in what Apple leaders will come up with without Steve Jobs. can they surprise you?

So is iPhone 8 STILL using 750p display ?ZipSpeed - Tuesday, September 12, 2017 - link
Yup, and the 8 still has 2 GB of RAM and the 8 Plus has 3 GB. Apple does a great job with improving the performance of the CPU & GPU every year, but the rest of the hardware seems to be stuck with incremental upgrades. Then again, this is Apple we're talking about. Or any other company that has the mindshare of consumers and brand cachet - BMW, Nvidia, Intel, Apple etc., milk, milk, milk!!!blackcrayon - Tuesday, September 12, 2017 - link
I'll take 3 GB of RAM (never noticed any limitation to 2) over having 6 GB of RAM with a slow CPU/GPU that I'll notice in audio apps and games. I'd rather be "milked" on specs I don't notice than specs I do.tipoo - Wednesday, September 20, 2017 - link
I complained about 1GB on iOS for a while, but 2 on my 7 has almost never been limiting. Days old tabs 12 deep, sure, I'll get a reload, but generally it's super good at memory management. Contrast to Samsung where 8GB still reloads more stuff than iOS.It does seem the X at least should have gotten 4 just for future proofing though.

Yeah. I’m kinda missing the convenience aspect of this. Phone on your desk? Passcode or pick it up. Then you’ll stop charging.BillBear - Tuesday, September 12, 2017 - link
How are you using the device without looking at the screen of your phone? Why can't the camera see your face to authenticate you if you have an unobstructed view of the screen?If you don't want to look at the screen while you use the device, then just use the "Hey Siri" activation phrase for the voice interface.
As with all the phones that support wireless charging, you can still plug in a wire and charge that way if you prefer.
MrTeal - Tuesday, September 12, 2017 - link
It will depend on the camera angles, but right now it's relatively simple to unlock your phone on the table by you while you're in a meeting and discretely skim an incoming email without actually having to pick up your phone.Sure you can still use the passcode, but depending on your institutional device management settings (mine in minimum 8 characters with a special character just to unlock) that can still way more effort than it needs to be.
It's not a dealbreaker by any means, but I'd still prefer to have fingerprint scanning if it were an option.
Eidigean - Tuesday, September 12, 2017 - link
Really? It's so easy to steal your fingerprint. Never bothered with the fingerprint reader. Passcode is more secure, and still on option with iPhone X. No need to pick it up if you don't want to. And if you still want the silly reader, get an iPhone 8.Charlie22911 - Tuesday, September 12, 2017 - link

Given them showing a training sesson for Face ID that had a user rotate their face to show it from all angles, it seems like they took having the system work from different angles into account.We'll see.
I have a feeling that if you can see the screen, the camera can see you back.

Apple's been working on that tech for a while now, and both the Samsung Note 8 and iPhone X were supposedly going to have it, but it just wasn't working well enough when it came time to ship them, according to the rumor sites.Here's a story about an Apple patent filed back in 2015.

That's not an apt comparison. Windows 9 was skipped because of legacy apps that had code for "If Windows version starts with 9" and such. The jump from iPhone 8 to iPhone X (pronounced ten) doesn't make a lot of sense.BillBear - Tuesday, September 12, 2017 - link
That was a rumor, never confirmed by Microsoft.However, Microsoft also skipped shipping Windows NT versions one and two and started out at 3.1.
Then there were Windows 95, 98, XP, Vista...
The "version number is illogical" ship sailed loooong ago.
jordanclock - Tuesday, September 12, 2017 - link
There are hundreds of projects on Github showing code looking for that exact shortcut, so the ship has not sailed. It was never confirmed by Microsoft, but it was a reasonable explanation. Many apps used workarounds for Windows 9x because of various bugs, or refused to run at all.Windows 1.0 and 2.0 were actual products. Windows NT started at 3.1 so that users would understand it was at version parity (and thus experience parity) with Windows 3.1.
Apple pulled X/ten has no explanation so far and looks complete arbitrary.

As much as I dislike Apple, I really feel sorry for what they have become. This release screams desperation and fear from Samsung, from hardware, to naming.They can make all the profits, but even they know they're not even half what they used to be.
As much of an ass Steve used to be, it's a fact that he knew how to steer that ship. I guess the difference is in ambition. He wanted Apple to be "the best" at all costs, but now they want it to stay a profit machine at all costs. The difference really shows.

Even when Jobs was still running the show the Android phones were cleaning the iPhone's clock in terms of advancing tech.At this point the phone market is all commoditized though so there's not much more to do but rely on the brand name.
blackcrayon - Tuesday, September 12, 2017 - link
In way you could say that- Apple didn't start more or less destroying Android phones in SoC tech until after Jobs- after they released the iPhone 5 and every year following. There are any number of other ways in which iPhones have frequently been ahead of Android in software and hardware. The reverse is also true though. It's almost like there are different companies focusing on different aspects of their devices. Amazing!lilmoe - Tuesday, September 12, 2017 - link
Apple never designed an SoC that was "ahead" of anything in the market from Samsung or Qualcomm. I'm not sure about the A11, will have to see, but the previous ones were slower and less efficient in both cpu and gpu. The A5 was interesting at the time in terms of efficiency, but it turned out to be nothing but bad and misinformed benchmarking.I don't blaim you for not knowing this, I blaim the incompetence of tech reviewers, in which most are nothing but sellouts.
I got tired of talking about this subject. The misinformation out there is flat out ridiculous.

Apple has always been about vertical integration, which often works better than superior hardware. Innovation has stopped there with the 4S. Since then, it was larger screens, fingerprints (barely any VI there), and then a plus model. All of which are to compete with Samsung (their only competitor).Their last few processors sucked outside their intended use (not a bad thing) and their "fusion" interconnect attempt was broken, a-la Exynos 5410. They're only reaping the benefits of the well executed software, the special treatment from carriers and their closed ecosystem, which enables them to make features available to a vast audience, opening up a compelling platform for developers. This isn't a small feat by any means, but it has been set in motion and executed well under the leadership of Jobs. THAT was the real innovation IMO. The rest is catchup, BS hype, and a slew of intended misinformation by the tech community and the media. Siri, which came afterwards has utterly FAILED as a platform. Apple pay doesn't holds a candle to Samsung pay for a very minor feature (MST). And now what? FaceID? Seriously?
History is sad. Samsung, their nemesis, understood Jobs much more than his crew at Apple, and their doing something about it even with Google's massive sabotage attempts.

Apple GPU means Imagination is basically dead. I hope they can find a way, but...Also, Apple will probably start creating their own proprietary GPU instructions, so I wouldn't be surprised if they will further lock out all hackintosh or vm macs down the line. Lock out everything that they didn't manufacture 100%, and planned obsolescence more and more. Your two year old mac doesn't support these new instructions? No updates for you, only a security patch, that will mostly slow down and make your current machine a pain to use.

It's Amazing that we're in 2017, and Apple STILL releases iPhones with 720p resolutions. Whether one called them Retina Displays, or Divine Displays, the facts seem very disappointing.The QHD Display in a lot of Smartphones is like Exactly FOUR TIMES the resolution of 720p.
I am guessing, that a huge amount of the supposed processing power advantage of iPhones is the disappointing displays.
Also, I believe that the iPhone X tops out at 625 Nits of brightness, whereas as other Flagships, including the Note 8 (1200 Nits) are brighter.
theuglyman0war - Friday, September 15, 2017 - link
To be Honest I wish this came out last year before this current slew of snapdragon 835 flagships came out. Basically for the same reason I wish for all phone innovation...As it seems to push technology expectations in other products or even drive the state of the art.
Which is why a part of my soul dies every time a new line of important phones is released ( like the newest iPhone obviously ) and there is no 4k display. Or a 4k display is included but comment sections dismiss the need for as much and apparently must have no desire for ubiquitously adopted ( thus cheaper ) screen display fidelity with extremely tight dot pitches which would be a boon to what may be possible sooner in VR/AR experience fidelity and the current sad state with a screen door effected display experience and FOV compromise.
With AMOLED ubiquity in mobile...
That most peoples QHD mobile experience is easily their superior display experience out of any device the average consumer enjoys...
Then self emitting diode contrast ratio concern awareness and hopefully yield research an adoption only stands to benefit from the army of iPhone zealots out there sure to now tout that OLED is finally done right ( LOL. whether as much is actually true or true because it's now the Apple flagship experience? I could care less! If it light's a fire for Samsung to develop a self emitting QLED variant quicker that competes with current OLED TV set pricing? Guaranteeing better contrast ratio and sharp rich blacks in my lacking computer monitor gui experience? Then what's good fer me is hopefully delivered by Apple )
Kind of vague on the AR tech?
Did Apple have a headset example ( or 3rd party headset vendor inference? )
Was sort of hoping for some FOV optics pushing boundaries that other manufacturers would then look bad in comparison too? ( which admittedly would not be hard to achieve ).
After the reaction the Unreal star wars demo got earlier was sorta expecting a bit more AR love pushed by Apple?
Speaking of Apple innovation pushing the industry...
Seems like slow motion has been stuck across the mobile camera space at 720p for most.
And even in the professional camera market...
It seems 4K has been a rock stuck at 30p ( unless one spends starting at up to $7k on a cinema solution )
So 60p 4K on a device as popular as iPhone should be a huge Boone! Light a fire under the ass for other manufacturers to at least match the same 4K and 1080p slo-mo capture?
60p being a nice workable number for 24p projects where 6 frames stolen from each 30 frames equals half a sec more at 12 frames equaling a 2.5x slow down at 24p! Which isn't the best but at least provides room to do some ramps up or down and is plenty slow to add a bit of style to a simple walk or run cycle. Either way... more frames allows for more tracking fidelity to smooth motion in post processing as well! And has been a long time coming. Hopefully wont have to wait another 3 years till competition achieves 120fps in a consumer 4K camera?
Sort reaching a windows capable qualcomm era where the next couple of die shrinks might add 4 relevant competitors to hopefully effect what is the state of the CPU/GPU art in desktop computing?
So I have my fingers crossed for that A11 investigation as well...
I do not understand the purchase confirmation bias myself? Personally I would rather hear that the new A11 already makes my new Snapdragon flagship phone purchase feel archaic ( it could happen? :) )
Kind of expected the X to be a targeted Phablet large screen device and like the newer iPad Pro strategy...
Now include pressure sensitive pen enabled display screens?
Could care less if they did not include as much to save the battery space unlike Samsung? But not make issue out of it in case not having a recess for storage caused controversy?
Never had an iPhone... Have any of them been pen enabled?
Got started in computing with Apple because of the Avid when Apple was considered for the computer with Creatives in mind. Seems odd that for a sketch pad device that would fit in my front shirt pocket ( Steve Jobs Floppy style )...
That I have to rely on the Samsung Note.
Obviously many people who use Apples today must no longer have any draftsmanship?
( which just seems odd? )
