But Iphone is powerful enough to work as a laptop - but you don't have a desktop mode like android because it means there will be no need for you to buy a mac or a ipad (unless you need some specific feature like drawing on a tablet). I'll probably go with something like minisforum v3 and run arch.

It had the camera adapter in there, for phones with big camera bumps, like mine, and also the $25 PSN code hadn’t been redeemed. So I essentially got it for $20. Sure it might be outdated kinda soon, but it’s just $20, and the biggest Lightning iPhone, a 12/13/14 pro max, should still work decently

    Apple is not allowing JIT probably because it’s keeping that card for their exclusive gaming move. Hideo Kojima’s game got ported on the iPhone. A PS4 game, on your smartphone. Let that sink for a second. It’s exciting but also disappointing because we have no idea if Apple will step up the game on gaming or just hoard the processing power and not use it to its fullest to release or “re-release” some solid games.
    I get both sides. I get the frustrated developers side who don’t want gate keeping and I get the revenue focused side, because that’s what every company in the world is created to accomplish.
    Your video was very informative. Thank you

    Wow I remember when I was a kid having to jump through hoops jailbreaking my iPod touch or iPhone 6 to get these apps. Now they’re just available on the App Store 😭 next generation has it so easy
