Adding AppleCare to Mac Studio & Mac mini is later in the purchase process than before‎

Despite the New Mac mini and Mac Studio apparently not including an option to add AppleCare where it has historically been during the order process, you just have to click through a few pages to get it done.AppleCare options are available for the new Macs.It's not remotely clear why Apple would choose to hide AppleCare for the new Macs since the option is front and center with other Macs. With those, AppleCare is on the order page, right after processor, RAM, and storage options.With the new Mac mini and Mac Studio, there is no such option on that page, but there is later in the process. Apple uses this extra step to promote the Studio Display and the way it's done is simply confusing. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

Why the new Mac Studio can support up to eight screens‎

You have to really need it in order to justify the cost of an M5 Ultra Mac Studio, but there are reasons why you could use up all eight display options, and they may not be obvious.Mac Studio comes with many ports, yet it's still easy to fill them all.Sometimes you wonder if Apple adds something just because it can. So the new M5 Max version of the Mac Studio, for instance, is being promoted as being able to run up to five displays, while the M5 Ultra Mac Studio can handle eight.There's more to it than that, there are specific limits on the types of displays, but it's true that there are five or eight available. And it's true that few Mac users need more than one or at the absolute most two. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

Apple's infamous Polishing Cloth drops to $9‎

Don't buy it.The new, $9 Apple Polishing Cloth | Image credit: AppleIn 2021, Apple announced the Polishing Cloth, a $19 cloth designed specifically to keep any of its Nano-texture displays smudge-free without any damage. And while the internet found the price to be ludicrous, and rightfully so, it was $19 at launch; it still immediately sold out.In fact, not only did it sell out immediately, it sold out three months in advance. Afterward, when it returned in January 2022, it remained regularly available. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

Smart TV analytics look dire for Apple TV F1 viewership, but not whole story‎

Hopes were high for Apple TV and F1 streaming in early 2026, but a recent set of data suggests that things fell off sharply in May and viewership has been down double digits since.Apple TV and F1 partnership may have declining viewership numbersStatistical analysis of viewership numbers is a tricky game on its own, especially when dealing with viewership numbers on Apple platforms. Samba is an analytics company that thrives on data obtained, often without the user's knowledge, thanks to being embedded in smart TV software.Apple, however, is a company that offers the Apple TV set-top box and the Apple TV app, sans Samba. Given that, a report from USA Today on data obtained from Samba is an interesting peek into Apple's deal with F1. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

Apple is taking pre-orders for the new Mac Studio now, but one configuration can't be selected yet. It's certain to push the maximum price well over $20,000, too.If that $18,299 price tag for the Mac Studio seems steep, wait until all of the configuration options are available - image credit: Apple.If you chose to, you could now spend $899 on a base Mac mini and wince at how much more those cost these days. Or you could go the other way and try to max-out a new Mac Studio.You can try. Very unusually, Apple has opened pre-orders for the Mac Studio but excluded one configuration, which it just says is "coming late October." Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

M6 Mac mini arrives with a new record-high starting price‎

In an uncharacteristic August launch, Apple has updated the Mac mini, retaining the same design, adding the M6 and M5 Pro processors, and a new record-high starting price.M4 Mac mini. M5 is identical externallyThe release comes almost two years after the then-redesigned M4 Mac mini was released. There's nothing different externally, with the major change being the M6 processor.And it comes after wait times were as long as two months on the morning of August 25 for the M4 version of the hardware.
