NAND card is replaceable in a proprietary socket. So you don’t have to worry. It probably is not upgradable but you can definitely replace it.

Yup, grew up in East Syracuse about 2 miles from the Erie Canal. Rode my bike many hundreds of miles east and west as a kid.

Never mentions Siri at all. Weird. Newest watches it’s all on device. Maybe he doesn’t know that?

It was always a stupid rumor. Can you imagine if Apple required a different USB-C cable for your new iPhone rather than what already works with iPads and MacBooks? They would never…

Notebook check says equivalent to a Core i5-8250U. That is not good in 2023. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-Processor-N200-CPU-Bench...
