In brief: Even when adjusting for inflation, the prices of today's high-end iPhones are much higher than they were over a decade ago—by 66%, in the case of the most expensive model. But CEO Tim Cook thinks that's okay because people are willing to pay more to "get the best." Insider notes that when the iPhone 3G and 3GS launched in 2009, the latter model with its maximum storage and no contract cost $699, or $962 when adjusting for inflation. That's a lot less than the top-specced iPhone 14 Pro Max, which, when bought with 1TB of storage, costs $1,600, or 66% more than the iPhone 3GS. The publication writes that prices have been on the rise for years; Apple has often been accused of increasing the cost of its products at a higher rate than inflation. The iPhone X's $1,149 launch price would make it around $1,376 today, though one exception was the iPhone 12 Pro Max, which sold for $1,399—$100 less than the iPhone 11 Pro Max. Paying $1,000 or more for a product is a … [Read more...] about Flagship iPhone prices have jumped 66% since 2009, but Tim Cook says people are happy to pay more for “the best”

OnePlus is finally ready to detail its first mechanical keyboard. No, we didn't need another company to start making mechanical keyboards. But if you're looking for a new Bluetooth keyboard that plays particularly well with Macs, has a compact layout, and a rotary knob that looks stylish and functional, OnePlus will have one more choice for you come April. Announced today, OnePlus is jumping into the mechanical keyboard race with a strange name, the Featuring Keyboard 81 Pro . The "81" refers to the key count, while "Pro" is assumably meant to make workers and power users think the keyboard's a good fit; but the name doesn't quite roll off the tongue. The outlier here is the "Featuring" bit, which refers to the OnePlus Featuring "co-creation" platform that builds products based off user feedback. Community users are said to have contributed to the 81 Pro's design, including its proprietary switches. OnePlus' press release today claimed it will release "many" more Featuring … [Read more...] about OnePlus unveils its first mechanical keyboard: Mac layout, custom switches

What just happened? Someone has made a fully playable version of The Legend of Zelda inside Minecraft without using any mods or resource packs. To get the right look, YouTuber C1OUS3R used a lesser-known technique to load world textures without any extra mods. From there, the user set about reconstructing the entire Zelda overworld and tapped into a feature in world resources that lets you edit the JSON format of blocks to enhance depth. This would normally take ages but the YouTuber utilized a program called Blockbench to expedite the process. Blockbench was also used to create Link. Speaking of the game's protagonist, C1OUS3R had to figure out a way to disable sprinting and jumping as neither was present in the original game. To do this, the modder gave the player permanent blindness (which prevents them from sprinting) and used the world resources shaders in version 1.17 to completely disable the visual effects of blindness. Normally, blindness adds a heavy vignette … [Read more...] about This playable version of Zelda made in Minecraft looks better than the original

Per Bloomberg (opens in new tab) , The Walt Disney Company is reportedly looking into the prospect of licensing Disney Plus films and TV series to raise some much-needed cash. The report comes ahead of Disney's Q1 2023 earnings call on Wednesday, February 8, at which CEO Bob Iger is expected to reveal details about the company's revamped streaming strategy.
