15:15On Apple TV+ this week: ‘The Crowded Room’ and season 3 of ‘The Snoopy ...
Macworld Apple has planted its own flag in the streaming wars with Apple TV+, its in-house streaming service that focuses almost entirely on original programming rather than an extensive library of existing TV shows or movies. This guide will list all the Apple TV+ content you can watch today, divided into episodic shows or series and movies. ...   Mac Central
10:15Even Apple hates the 13-inch MacBook Pro
Macworld At WWDC 2023, Apple introduced another new laptop to its lineup: the 15-inch MacBook Air. It joins the 13-inch MacBook Air, 13-inch MacBook Pro, and 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro as the newest laptops sporting the newest chips. There’s just one problem: Apple appears to have forgotten the 13-inch MacBook Pro exists. ...   Mac Central
09:30Apple needs to sell a VR headset to people who hate VR headsets
Macworld Apple’s announcement of the Vision Pro mixed-reality headset at WWDC 2023 on Monday was an impressive affair in many ways, from the slick design and obvious tech chops of the device itself to the high production values of the video showing them off. ...   Mac Central
09:26iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro: Where to get the best deals
Macworld It’s been a long time since you could only buy an iPhone directly from Apple or from AT&T.

12:53Apple Vision Pro doesn’t have a ProMotion display
Macworld Apple’s Vision Pro website is filled with incredible photos and fancy phrases to describe how revolutionary the headset is, but you won’t find Apple’s usual tech specs page.

Macworld At a glance Our VerdictThe 15-inch MacBook Air is the perfect laptop for those who want a laptop with a large display, compact build and enough power for general day-to-day computing.

10:15A bunch of great iOS 17 features didn’t make the WWDC keynote
Macworld Apple had plenty of great things to show off when it unveiled iOS 17 at WWDC.

But sometimes it’s the little things that have the biggest impact. ...   Mac Central
09:30Why the Mac, not Apple Vision Pro, was the real hero of WWDC

When you first connect to an AirPlay destination, you may be prompted to enter a security code. This security code is not designed to protect you from hacking attempts. ...   Mac Central
07:00The Global Drone 4K Platinum, on sale for $80, makes a great Father’s...

The Starlight color, which was previously the only colorway to sell for this price, is $50 more. ...   Mac Central

09:30Apple’s Vision Pro experience is so thrilling, I didn’t want to leave
Macworld At Apple’s WWDC23, I think I saw the future. [Pausing to ponder.] Yeah, I’m pretty sure I saw the future–or at least Apple’s vision of the future of computing. On Tuesday morning, I got to try the Apple Vision Pro, the new $3,499 mixed-reality headset that was announced this week and ships next year. ...   Mac Central
08:45Apple Vision Pro has a two user-account limit: Yours and a guest
Macworld With a $3,499 price tag (and that’s before any lenses you might need), you want to get the most out of your Apple Vision Pro investment.

12:33The new Apple silicon Mac Pro is both cheaper and more expensive
Macworld Apple introduced the new Mac Pro Monday, but much like the Mac Studio, it’s hard to tell what’s changed. Like the Mac mini, the outside of the Mac Pro is identical to its predecessor, and you need to open it up to see what’s changed. The most obvious difference is the lack of a graphics card. ...   Mac Central
10:15Apple needs the M2 Ultra Mac Pro more than we do
Macworld Apple’s transition to Apple silicon is complete, now that the Mac Pro has finally been unveiled.

09:30The buzzword Apple didn’t utter during the WWDC keynote speaks volumes
Macworld Did you see the Keynote?! Tim Cook said the thing! The “one more thing” thing! Congratulations, Apple Keynote bingo players around the world. Now, we could talk about Vision Pro for hours but let’s not. We have the whole rest of the year to do that. ...   Mac Central
