Quick Takes: iPhone X Clones, 5G Network Race is On, Apple Patents Dual Display Device, and More

[PG(Austin)]

Is it me or has technology gotten boring? I mean, with these companies, EVERYONE copies EVERYONE! Just look at this, and the FitBit watch for instance...good grief! Nothing is NEW anymore...it's pure laziness.

Oh yes please bring us a MacBook with a digital keyboard; to hell with ergonomics.

a digital keyboard on a phone is ok......an iPad tolerable, but a laptop? I need the feedback of the keys....

Who writes the time like that? Are you kidding me, Android phone?

Haha. Like those cryptic expiration dates on food packaging.

Isn't there already a dual display hand held gaming system? Gameboy? NOPE, it's the Nintendo DS. How do they get a patent on this when devices already exist with dual screens in clam shell format?

They're patenting some specific design of that type, not the general idea of two screens in a clamshell.

I've been bored since the iPhone 4S came out. The only somewhat exciting stuff is happening behind the scenes, like with data centers switching away from traditional CPUs.

I miss Apple's colored hardware. Bring back the iMac G3 casing.

when I saw this design I wanted to sell my iphone. I think a better phone as a battery

It’s not for “most areas” but the smart cities. Sorry better pack your bags and move if you’ll want it.

If they do release it earlier, they’ll come out saying it cost us 0.20Cents more so we’ll charge you $200 more. Good luck paying for your $1500 phone.

You must be one of those people who say 4K TVs are not user practical, you don’t need anything more than 720p.

I have a 4K t.v. and watch a lot of programming in 4K. At this point in time, I question whether it would really matter if my accessing and viewing content at 200 + Mbps ) with adopted 5K vs the current carrier rate of 24 - 50 Mbps around the house and around town matter. I know one thing, I am not going to pay extra for 5K streaming on my phone.

Well, you don't. What you need is good speakers, and, more importantly, something good to watch.

Apple, steadfastly committed... to a bad typing experience.

It should courageously explode in a bright, bold, daring fireball.

Please find a new tag line. You're not original and it's not even funny anymore. Unless you're not courageous enough to think of your own content.

I'll try harder to please you with better "content" next time.
Perhaps you could prepare a manual for me, starting with what you think a Tag Line is.
