Episode notes
iPhone 13 Naming
- Apple likely won't skip the iPhone 13 due to existing products like iOS 13 and the 13-inch MacBook Pro.
- They also skipped the iPhone 9, going straight to iPhone X, so the number 13 isn't a major concern for them.
12S Naming Convention
- The next iPhone should be called the 12S because it's a minor upgrade from the 12, much like previous "S" models.
- A simpler naming scheme also avoids confusing consumers with "S" and "SE" models, aligning with Apple's history of clear naming.
HP Chrome OS Desktop vs. iMac
- HP's Chrome OS desktop may be more suited for family use than Apple's new iMac, due to touchscreen, rotation, and lower price.
- It also has a better form factor and offers smart home integration with Android apps, making it potentially better for the family room or kitchen.
