The camera lens gets hot?

Would you pay $100 to rent the new iPhone for a month? Do you need 256 GB storage? Is this a business tool and having the new model sooner enable you to earn that extra cost and more? Does your budget allow the splurge and it's worth it to you to get the iPhone right now?

I think the answer is "Yes". It has analog passthrough for analog outputs. But it will provide digital output for digital devices that have their own DAC.

I'm probably not upgrading early. The Verizon $650 promotion seems to stop the rebate payments if you pay off the new phone early. That's not a bad deal, but it's not a great deal. I hope to get confirmation this weekend. Ultimately, I want to upgrade next year. If I can get a nearly free...

https://www.verizonwireless.com/landingpages/iphone/#trade-in My iPhone 6s was $750 I think; I bought the middle model, 64GB. I financed $550. I'm 11 months in; 1 more payment to be eligible for an upgrade, my account says. So I'm thinking maybe I should upgrade my iPhone a year earlier than...

10.0.1 is already out, so I upgraded yesterday. No problems.

In about 12 months, after iOS 11 is released. :D I kid, I kid. Seriously the safe money is to wait until after the first 10.0.x update is out. There's always little hiccups and glitches that get fixed in the first month or two. And even a major snafu, as with the first-hour update crashes...

I still need a desktop -- but not a laptop. And I do fine with a seven year old desktop, since so much use is off-loaded to the iPad or iPhone. But my niece who's going to college with an iPad Pro and no other PC is another sign of how some users might no longer need a "normal" computer.

That's what a PS4 is for... And for playing at 50" to 120" :D

That's because it's the most advanced handheld computer to date. That happens to have a phone app. Talking with my BIL, I told him I need to buy a new desktop computer. He asked me why, when I've got an iPhone and an iPad, would I waste money on a desktop? And he's basically right, with the...

It's less confusing now than it was just two years ago with the new-every-two plans. If it's more confusing, it's because we're still expecting the contractual contortions we were conditioned to the previous decade. Today: Step 1) buy a smartphone Step 2) buy a monthly service plan Step 3)...

Ok. Monthly payments, no AppleCare, no annual upgrade. That's the plan I took from Verizon last year for my 6s. That's simply buying a phone, paying monthly at 0% financing rather than paying up front.

I take from that, Apple gives you the option to buy AppleCare up front rather than adding it to your monthly payments. But you must buy it, or your iPhone is ineligible for the annual upgrade.

I think I bought it for my 2007 MBP. I buy warranties when it's a brand new or uncertain product type for me. But as a rule I don't buy them.

From the article: No. The smart money is to never buy an extended warranty (or service plan) ever. They're overpriced insurance plans. On the whole, what you save will pay for rare product failure. Consider: On three iPads and six iPhones I've saved $1161 not paying for AppleCare. That makes...

That's 2010 thinking. That's when you paid $300 out of pocket and the other $350 of the $650 phone was buried in your monthly phone bill but you still paid full fare...or more. Now, you just buy the phone outright at retail price. And you own it. You can keep it for one year or forever. Or...
