  • Apple TV set rumors resurface, AirTag 2, TV+ original movies strategy
    Nov 21 2024
    Benjamin and Chance discuss the merits of Apple returning to the long-gestating idea of an Apple television set, in the context of its refocusing on smart home devices. Also, the second-generation AirTag is rumored to arrive in 2025 with some nice enhancements, and Apple’s original film division continues to waver on strategy. And in Happy Hour Plus, Chance bemoans Apple’s abandonment of accessories like the MagSafe Battery Pack, and gives his thoughts on the new Belkin strap for Vision Pro. Subscribe at 9to5mac.com/join.

    Nov 14 2024
    Benjamin and Chance debate the curious report from Bloomberg about what the upcoming Apple smart display will look like, and how it will work.
