9to5 Mac said:It appears that last month, Apple quietly dropped the price of the 1m USB-C to Lighting Cable by $6, going from $25 to $19. This change comes amid rumors that new iPhones will drop the USB-A-equipped Lightning to USB Cables in favor of USB-C cables that are able to facilitate faster charging.
...
This isn't the first time that we've seen the USB-C to Lightning Cable sell for $19.00. Back during the so-called #donglegate, Apple dropped the prices of all of its USB-C accessories, including the USB-C to Lightning Cable.
...
Keep in mind that the USB-C to Lightning Cable is just one piece of the fast-charging puzzle. Users will also need a corresponding USB-C charger, such as Apple's 29W USB-C Power Adapter. While the 29W adapter is capable of fast-charging newer iPhones, that adapter is geared more towards the iPad Pro, and it ships with the 12-inch MacBook.
With this in mind, rumors are suggesting that Apple will introduce a new 18W USB-C Power Adapter with a new design. Not only would such an adapter be more in line with the iPhone's charging capabilities, it would also likely be smaller than the current 29W adapter, allowing it to fit in areas where a larger adapter may not.
A new 18W Power Adapter might also supplant the 12W adapter currently included with all iPads, providing a single default power adapter for all new iOS devices.
Even as die hard a fan I am, I'm still running an iPhone 5 and El Capitan.
I feel out of the loop with the products these days.
I mean you can be all but assured that they aren't going to go backwards to the old keyboard design.Still on MacBook Pro from 2010 also.
If they announce new 15" model with old keyboard mechanism, 8th gen intel cpu, higher than 60hz screen, preferably a 1070 but 1060 min etc etc then I'll buy. Otherwise hello Dell, MSI, Gigabyte, Razer, Huawei etc.

But the one thing I'm a little surprised didn't start taking over the Apple lineup was their 120hz display from the iPad Pro. It was universally hailed as the next big thing for mobile devices and just kind of stopped at that one device. I'd have to guess that including that feature is expensive and maybe takes a bit more real-estate to include in other devices?
Either way, I'd love the shit out of a 120hz iPhone or Macbook.
You're totally right that they'd have to say SOMETHING about it at the keynote if they updated the hardware and kept the keyboard. Some new implementation or design of it to prevent the issues...they'd have to say SOMETHING.Well fuck Apple if they want to keep on with the fairly well documented broken keyboard they have designed.
Cheaper laptops are coming out with 144hz screens these days, albeit at around HD res. Apple charge a premium price so you should get premium features. If they don't even bother updating the 15" model next week then... Apple doesn't care about pro users.
Most tech is like this these days. Phones have gotten really good at their core purpose, now everything is gravy. Web page design is really good at resembling apps as well so app excitement is super low at least for me. Now you can get by pretty well with just safari and baseline apps
Gotta make room for that camera ... are we going to see macbooks with notches?
Considering that Apple put TouchID on their macbook line, I'd fully assume that if they are as truly committed to FaceID being the future, that we will indeed get the same sensors to enable it on Macbooks in the near future.Gotta make room for that camera ... are we going to see macbooks with notches?

Fortunately (or unfortunately) the bezels on Macbooks are still pretty big, so we wouldn't need a notch that cuts into the display. At least not yet.

Apple said:Non-subscription apps may offer a free time-based trial period before presenting a full unlock option by setting up a Non-Consumable IAP item at Price Tier 0 that follows the naming convention: "14-day Trial." Prior to the start of the trial, your app must clearly identify its duration, the content or services that will no longer be accessible when the trial ends, and any downstream charges the user would need to pay for full functionality.

The new keyboard has the same dimensions and look as its two predecessors, but the keys feel just a little bit different. They're quieter, for one thing. They have a softer, less click-y feel that is a little closer to the pre-2016 models' chiclet keys. We found the new keyboard to be a little nicer to type on, but it's not a radical difference. It's unlikely to convert the detractors, but it's a welcome iteration for those who liked or didn't mind the previous butterfly keyboards.
Not seen yet.Has anybody seen the Huawei Matebook X Pro yet? I get a future glimpse of how nice a Macbook Pro could look with slim bezels
