Show notes

Thanks to Grammarly for supporting Apple Bitz XL Podcast. For 20% off a Grammarly premium account, go to grammarly.com/applebitz The dust has settled and cooler heads have prevailed after Apple officially canceled the AirPower. But it's still an unprecedented move and one of their biggest failures ever. Then they had to publicly apologize about the Macbook 'Butterfly' keyboards that we've been screaming about the past 4 years. Apple is still Apple, but it's not looking pretty right now.

Apple surprises with product announcements three days in a row for the iPad Mini & iPad Air, iMac Upgrades and AirPods 2.
