There’s been no shortage of pessimism where 2018 iPhone X sales are concerned. Reports in January and February claimed that Apple was halving its production targets for the current quarter, and a recent survey focused on the reasons some iPhone owners haven’t upgraded.

A few days after having received my AirPods order, I’ve quickly come to realize how the lack of accessible audio playback controls can hinder the overall experience. In my previous reviews of true wireless earbuds, I’ve consistently brought up on-device controls as a positive or a negative. When you remove the wire and the controls so many of us have gotten used to, offering a new means of control is necessary....

A new study from OpenSignal published today looks into the cellular performance of the most popular iPhones going back to 2013.

Throughout its almost seventy-year existence, numerous events rocked the foundation of the union, sometimes having profound effects on the rest of the world. HBO’s recent miniseries, Chernobyl, explored the 1986 disaster in depth. However, many other historical events from the region also deserve a closer look....
Apple CEO Tim Cook has said that he doesn’t think it likely that the Chinese government will target the iPhone maker in retaliation for Trump administration policies. The US has imposed 25% tariffs on many products imported from China, and Trump has threatened to extend this to all Chinese imports … Some Apple accessories are already taxed at 25%, and Trump’s threat would see all Apple products made in China and sold in the US hit by the tariff – resulting in either steep price increases or reduced profitability for the company....

DRAMs, which are used in most modern operating systems today, can lose their content gradually over a period of time. Keeping DRAMs a at lower room temperature, say -50 degrees C, the content of DRAM can last from about several minutes to even hours....
The Church of Night is a massive influence on the plot of The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. While completely absent from the Sabrina show of the ’90s, the new version couldn’t be done without it.

Such an important part of the show needs to be solid enough to add to the story and not throw people out of it....
