Ian Cutress of AnandTech joins me to talk MacBook Air thermals! The new MacBook Air, an update the the 2018 redesign, got pretty good reviews when it came out a month ago. People liked the new keyboard, the new chipsets, and the lower price. But, there were a few criticisms as well. Basically, the still low-res webcam, some concerns about thermal throttling on the faster CPUs, and the battery life. Since then, I’ve had time to pound on the Magic keys, compare the web cam to pretty much everything else I have, really dig into the thermals, and there’s even been a macOS Catalina supplemental update. So, what if any difference does a month make? SPONSOR: Brilliant Go to brilliant.org/reneritchie and sign up for free.

Yesterday, I talked about an iPhone 12 diagram supposedly ripped from a leaked internal iOS 14 build. Well, there were also a couple other diagrams leaked as well, one of which shows a new iPhone Home screen. Or, at least that’s how many people ran with it. What it really showed was a Rorschach test for whatever it is you secretly wish the iPhone Home screen, or Springboard, would look like.

Over the last week or so, a diagram has been making its way across the pillars of the social cross — twitter, Insta, blogs, YouTube. It’s purportedly from that internal December iOS 14 build, the one that everyone and their Animal Crossing pals now seemingly have access to. And it shows the new iPad Pro LiDAR Scanner — that’s LIght Detection and Ranging — but in fully Digivolved iPhone 12 Pro form. That’s lead to a ton of people telling all of us, over and over again, just exactly what it is. But… I’m way more interested in WHY it is.

Last Thursday, Zack Hall from 9to5Mac reported that the long-rumored and widely anticipated next-generation entry-level iPhone would be called the iPhone SE, would come in red, white, and black, with up to 256 GB of storage, and most importantly, the launch was imminent, as soon as last Friday. Jon Prosser of Front Page Tech, meanwhile, previously reported that the iPhone 9 would tentatively be announced on or around April 15 and ship on April 22. (His use of the iPhone 9 name there was just a placeholder.) So, what’s going on… and why? SPONSOR: Brilliant Go to brilliant.org/reneritchie and sign up for free.

The iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro were really well-reviewed when they first came out, especially the cameras, battery life, and the lower price on the base model 11. There were some criticisms though. Namely, the lack of faster charging options and accessories, USB-C, and just how buggy iOS 13 was at launch. But, times change. Hardware gets put through its paces. Software gets updated. New competition comes out. Expectations change. And so do circumstances, especially right now when many of us are stuck at home and depending on our phones in very different ways than we’d planned to. It makes the whole question of what to buy and when to buy it just alternate reality different than it was at launch. So, I’m going to deep dive into all of that, right now. This… is the iPhone 11: 6 Months Later.

Yeah, new channel. Let me explain: I’m fascinated by Apple. I’ve been covering the company since the launch of the original iPhone, and they’ve come to touch just so many aspects of our culture, our relationships, our lives. They’ve become the lens through which many of us experience the rest of consumer tech as well, from Google to Facebook, Amazon, Microsoft, Twitter, and more. I also love the news. I have a Sorkin-esque romantic ideal about how facts righteously presented can inform and empower us. I spent the first 10 years of my career in product marketing, learning how tech companies position their products and problems from the inside. I spent the last 10 in tech media, learning how those products and problems affect all of us. Now I want to spend the next 10 years right here with you. Talking not just about Apple, glorified or vilified, but about all the tech that affects all of our lives. And not just about the news, about what’s happening and when, but diving deep into the analysis behind it, the how and the why. Most importantly, I want to start a new conversation with you about what’s real and what’s not, what’s fact and what’s not, what’s serious and meant to help and educate us and what’s just sensationalism, desperate to manipulate and exploit us. It starts here with this brand new channel and a brand new… mostly daily analysis show, because that’s just what I do. But I have a few other, really exciting projects coming up that I can’t wait to tell you about as well. And here’s where you come in. I’m starting fresh. Starting over. Building everything all back up. And I need your help to do it. So, hit subscribe and set that bell gizmo to always, it’s the only way YouTube will actually tell you when each and every new episode goes live, share this new channel with everyone you know so we can get this all going again fast, and then drop a comment below letting me know just exactly what YOU want to see next as we take this all live.
