In a small device like the watch, the attachment mechanism and all the structure needed for it takes substantial space where every millimeter is at a premium

May I highly recommend Sponsorblock to go with Adblock
I hope the band connector redesign and possible skipping of a year before much bigger updates in the Apple watch X/Ultra 3 lead to big increases in battery life
The metal shell is also said to be part of a better thermal system in the 16, and it's actually the battery and the OLED that are the temperature limiting components in a smartphone rather than the SoC.
I'm going to say this rando twitter account likely doesn't know what they're talking about
What stands out about these tests to me, apart from Apple Silicon remaining highly impressive, is that AMD in both and Intel at least in multicore are beating the Snapdragon on performance per watt. Many people boil Apple's efficiency down to an ARM vs x86 thing, but that's a tiny part of the chip by now, it's more in Apple's bespoke architecture around it.
Here we see AMD even on x86 beating an ARM chip on Perf/watt, Intel on multicore, and Meteor Lake launching within a month will drop power use by 50%. It's not just or even mostly the ISA, it's everything else around it that matters more.
I think they'd do it once they have something else to upsell the Pro displays on, like microLED
Yeah the uptime was almost legendary back then, that was the "functional high ground" of largely just working.
Snow Leopard definitely had the intro movie, and it was awesome
I wonder why no one in PC land seems to use an ambient light sensor like Apple to control the backlight, even removed the keyboard button recently because they think that should be enough, which would avoid anyone ever not finding it

Man they gotta fix deep linking in iOS one day, even in Apple's own mail app from Apple's own email it just opens a shitty browser view for this instead of straight to the music app
