Apple is getting ready to drop the next generation of iPad Pro. The most advanced iPad ever, no doubt! So… I decided to go back to where it all began and react to the very first iPad drop, the one from Steve Jobs over a decade ago, to dish a little behind the scenes and… well… to see how much of that original pitch still holds up today…

Yes! I’m still using an Intel Mac. Right now. Right this minute. To edit this very video. For you! No, not because I hate myself or because I need the thermals to stay warm in winter… 

And it’s not because of Intel’s hyper-cringe, hyper self-destructive attack ads, which they immediately, followed up by just the worst I-hate-you-don’t-leave-me straight-up begging for Apple’s foundry business, while admitting their 7-nanometer process is still years away, then wanting to just do away from nanometer measures entirely, while I’m assuming Apple isn’t even wasting any wicked side-eye as they prepare to go 3 nanometers or — who the hank gym knows — sub-atomic with Taiwan Semiconductor.

And not because I don’t love the M1 Macs. I do. I all caps love them. But there are still 4 specific things that are keeping me on the 16-inch Intel MacBook Pro!

Marques Brownlee, MBKHD, joins me to dream up our ultimate iPhone 13 Pro — with refresh rate, brightness, cameras, charging, and features far, far beyond Max. So many Hz, so many nits, so many megapixels, so many watts, so many... all the things, it might as well be Ultra.... even... ultimate!

iPad Pro with M1. Power of M1. Give it to me now. Like now now. Only… if Apple sticks to pattern, it won’t be an M1. Not exactly. It’ll be A14X. And that’s caused… some confusion. But let me explain.

Intel has a new series of Get A Mac-inspired attack ads leveled at Apple's M1 but are they any better than the last set of factually challenged comparisons... could they be worse? Could they, for example, include a fake M2 MacBook with zero bezels?!

(With apologies and respect to Uncle Roger.)

Apple has just discontinued the HomePod. Not the new mini. The Biggie. The OG. And I’m going to tell you why they did it, and why I hope they’ll bring it back in a newer, better, more final form.

From Apple:

"HomePod mini has been a hit since its debut last fall, offering customers amazing sound, an intelligent assistant, and smart home control all for just $99. We are focusing our efforts on HomePod mini. We are discontinuing the original HomePod, it will continue to be available while supplies last through the Apple Online Store, Apple Retail Stores, and Apple Authorized Resellers. Apple will provide HomePod customers with software updates and service and support through Apple Care."
