Its nothing great, Safari is a lot better.

 

The only good things I've found with it are scrubbing through video files and photos.

 

Can't you already scrub thru videos and pics with the trackpad???

 

yes but this is a tad easier.

 

 

Broke down and got an iPad Pro. Mainly to try and switch my day to day use over to as well as my photography work flow.

Got the 10.5" w/ 256gb, pencil, and keyboard cover.

 

So trying not to. Still running Air VR1. This is second one, battery dead in first one, now this one, its replacement is dying. Was getting 12 hours or so when brand new. Now lucky if five hours. It's always in my hand, used often.

 

I did the same. I traded in a mini towards it. Its great, fast, works great with iOS 11 but I miss the mini. I bought a Fire HD tablet for $50 and now Im happier.

 

Is ios11 stable enough to install now?

 

I'm kinda hoping they'd make a refreshed Mini but all the signs are pointing to that it's not likely. My iPad 3 is pretty much only good for Netflix and the Optimum app now since everything is so slow and 9.3.5 is the last update. The Mini is the only size that would fit in the controller for my Mavic Pro since the larger ones are apparently awkward when flying.

 

Pretty much.

 

I still have my 3rd gen iPad As well. But mines running whatever the last version of iOS 8 is.

Thing is running so slow it's pretty much being used as an alarm clock and the occasional web surfing (it's slow for that)

 

Installed ios11

 

I still have my iPad 3 as well. I haven't used it since the iPhone 6plus. And it's so old and slow. My kids play games on it now.

 

New beta out today in case you just missed it.

 

Already got it

 

Question for apple imac users: My wife has been asking me to buy a imac computer for her and the kidos and today my brother in law texted and told me he is planning on getting rid of his imac that he bought at the beginning of the year. He paid like $1300 for it new and is willing to sell it to me for $700. If my memory serves me right it's 21.5", 4k retina screen, 1tb hard drive, i5 processor and 8gb of ram. We currently use iphones and love them but haven't used mac's just regular PC's.

I usually don't like to buy used computers but since it's coming from my BIL and it being an apple I am considering it, what do you all think?

 

Do it.

 

Don't do it. It's a trap.

Let me take it off his hands. It's for your own safety.

 

Sounds like a good trap to me.

 

I have never regretted moving to the Apple ecosystem and the computers that come with it.

A Mac seems to be able to get by on less RAM, so don't be deterred by 8 gb of RAM. If you find you need more RAM, then replacing RAM is probably the only easy thing you can do with an iMac.

If you play games, one thing you might want to think about is that there aren't as many OS X games, and the typical Mac is not designed for games.

Another thing you might want to do is make sure you understand why he is selling it, in case the same circumstance would affect you as well.

I have two 27" iMac, a 13" MacBook Pro, an iPad Air, and an iPhone X and I have never regretted any of that. :-)

 

We have been using iPhones since iPhone 4 and always had get experiences with apple so i'm sure we will like the iMac. I have heard from quite a few people that apple computers seem to outrun PC's by a long shot, my PC's always seems to glitch after about 1.5-2 years and from what I understand that isn't the case with apple or am I wrong?

We don't play games on our computers nor do we use them heavy.

 

That's the joke.gif

 

Macbook Air from 2017 $750 on ebay

https://www.ebay.com/itm/20211746866...887&rmvSB=true

 

Wow that is an awesome price. Long downside is the small screen

 

13.3" isn't THAT small

 

It's not bad for a compact laptop but it's small compared to 21.5 iMac.

 

It's not as easy to upgrade the RAM on a 21.5 inch iMac.

you have to take apart the whole computer and remove the logic board.

 

Actually depends on what 4K iMac you have.

2017 you can using the process I mentioned above.

2015 its soldered to the logic board.

 

I am pretty sure the iMac my BIL is offering to me is a 2015 model but I think i'll be ok with the 8gb of ram, I won't be using it for games or anything crazy like that.

Thank you! I'd never have dreamed of such a difference.

 

That's what she said. She's a whore.

 

I just bought some AirPods

3 minutes of use review: Audio is good, much better than the ones included with the iPhone. Hasn't fallen out yet the other ones probably suck at staying in because of the wires pulling on them.

I'm about to go to the gym we'll see how it goes...

I got a 45 day return period

 

I love them

 

Better deals (value-wise, not price) can usually be had at Whiskersbay.

 

I don't want the AirPods because knowing me I'd lose them or one.

 

They stay in well. Didn’t fall out at the gym

 

Yeah I'm not looking but wanted to share. Does the Whiskersbay have inventory for sale?

 

Not until something I own is replaced by something newer.

 

They stayed in for your entire interpretive dance class?
