MUNTINLUPA, PHILIPPINES (Catholic Online) - There is a slight difference between the thickness of the iPhone 6 and 6s which concerned one reader due to phone case fitting. Brian said that although some case manufacturers like Speck stated that their iPhone 6 cases would fit the new iPhone 6s, it is best to look up or ask customer support for compatibility.
Another asked whether the thicker 6s had an improvement on the battery life, Brian responded that it might have. He said that the iPhone 6s is about 70 percent more powerful than the earlier ones. He added that the Apple website stated that the 6s can last for 14 hours talk time on a 3G network while the 6s Plus has as much as 24 hours.
J.D. advised one reader not to cancel his cable subscription yet as the Apple TV is not exactly a replacement, but an enhancement. He noted there are many free apps on the device that users can find as well as added free-of-charge channels "through participating cable and satellite providers."
On the question whether devices like iPad 3 can be mirrored by the Apple TV, Brian said that it could work if it has support for AirPlay.
The new iPad Pro and MacBook Pro are working differently, they say. J.D. explained that the new generation iPad is designed to work on the go and for lighter workload. It is still cellular-equipped and still "runs on an A9X processor and Apple's iOS operating system for mobile gadgets." The lightweight iPad Pro can be turned into a laptop-like with some Apple accessories available like the Smart Keyboard. Yet, it still doesn't have USB ports nor connector, but uses Cloud services.
Only in iPad Pro the Apple Pencil is compatible, he added.
MacBook Pro, J.D. said, are designated to do more heavy-duty computations. It is in comparison heavier and runs on Intel dual or quad-core processor, with USB, HDMI and Thunderbolt Ports. The MacBook Pro can also be upgraded to having a terabyte storage space, but also paying more.
