      If you would fallow GSMArena for some time you would noticed that Prasad is not really good at his job and lots of time LOTS of people didn't like his articles because of his bias and lack of proper facts regarding devices.

      Often he forgot to mention big and small issues related to Apple devices and features and information's about other brand devices. Especially such basic thing as balance of price and features/quality that Apple often lack.

                    Well written article, and humorous too.

                    Have to disagree with you about the iMacs. When I first saw them, I was shocked. Too much color. White bezels. The chin is still there.

                    However, I’ve evolved on them and think they look kinda fun and very eye-catching. These will be noticeable immediately when they start appearing in offices, receptions etc.

                    It’s easy to think they look like toys and forget that they are in fact incredibly powerful machines. I think this is Apple’s way of saying forget about the specs and enjoy the experience.

                            Anonymous, 25 Apr 2021Apple copied airtags from Sony which launched nfc tags in 2012. nfc tags are a different thing dude (and i really wish they came back)

                            basically you use your phones nfc to tap a tag and it'll do stuff like turn on ur alarm, muting your phone and turn off wifi
                            an example would be putting one near your bed
                            MKBHD did a video on it with the galaxy S3 back in 2012 i think lol

                            they're not used for location tracking

                              I think the iPad Pro (13 inch) and the iMac look wonderful. The base iPad Pro and iPhone 12 are nothing special.

                                    Ok here is my Hot take:
                                    The chin is ugly, yes and the design is not incredible on the iMac. But Overall it's a decent package. I don't get the hate. It is rather ok-is regarding specs and it has a nice display and delivers a compact package with decent speakers and webcam.
                                    The one thing i dislike is missing windows support. will it come to m1?

                                      rishabhpc1997, 25 Apr 2021dammn!! sony introduced nfc tags in 2012True that, a neat idea indeed!
                                      but they weren't a tracker of sorts iirc.
                                      They were just a NFC tag that could trigger a set of functions on a phone
