ÌÇÐÄVlog

The first reviews of the New Mac mini, iMac, and MacBook Pro, are in — and surprisingly range from delight to strange cynicism. Plus there are yet more rumors of the next Apple Vision Pro, but you need not hold your breath.

Typical. You wait ages for a new Mac and three of them turn up — to mixed reviews. That's not mixed as in some reviews are critical while others are not, it's that some are fulsome while others are begrudging.

Find out which of the new Macs is an instant hit, and which one has got at least some people grumbling that it's merely the best Mac you can buy.

Plus there are — as always — more rumors about the future of the Apple Vision Pro. Some of them might even be worth listening to. Maybe.
