I wouldn’t be surprised if they continued to gate it to the “pro” models and the “regular” iPhones never see these features no matter how new. That’s why the 15 pro has an “A17 Pro” chip so the iPhone 16 will have a non-pro chip that can’t do AI stuff

This post might just push me to get infuse lifetime! Thanks for a great server app :)

I hope we get an auto-update system soon

Ok so I did some testing, from the wall it’s about 7 watts idle. I wonder where that extra 5 is coming from, oh well still pretty good!

Sleeping it’s less than 1 watt, so I might see if I can let it sleep at night somehow

I have a meter I could test with if I wanted, although I’m not sure why iStat would lie

Sure! It’s an M2 MacMini, 16gb ram 512gb ssd. I monitor its power usage with iStat menus 6

Ah makes sense. I’m using a Mac mini, used to use a raspberry pi

True, I’m using a M2 Mac mini. Used to use a raspberry pi

Also the iPad Pro has 4 speakers and the air has 2, if you care about internal speakers the pro is much better

Just curious, why do you turn it off at night? Mine only uses ~2 watts when idling

Edit; more like 7 watts but still pretty good

Oooh Apple TV next please!!

My Apple TV 4K will play PGS without burning in

YouTube as a content deliverer is going to care more about using less bandwidth than the devices battery, so if the phone can play it, you bet your ass YouTube will send it.

Anyone else sick of people posting in “Apple enthusiast” that start with I am not actively using any Apple products and then launches into a negative spiral?

This is not the sub for you. Go complain in a general tech sub, this is for people deep in the ecosystem not people looking in from the outside

Software decoding video of any kind on a phone is a terrible idea, mostly for battery reasons. AV1 should only be available to hardware decode capable chips unless you’re on a desktop or something like that.

Also the ONLY one on the market that doesn’t rainbow with polarized sunglasses

The flolab is the only screen protector I’ve ever used I didn’t rip off within hours. People don’t even believe me I have one installed it looks just like the natural screen!

LMAO you will be next to people way higher on stuff way harder than weed no matter where you go in LV. You’ll be fine 😂

I know I’m a edge use-case, but I really hope this will work with my M3 Max MacBook Pro. It has DP over USB-C without needing an adapter and plays my favorite game (ever space) at high frame rates no problem, and it would be soooo epic in VR.
