I compared the size of the new 14-inch MacBook Pro and 13-inch MacBook Pro (2020)

 


13 inch vs 14 inch, fight!


The new 14-inch MacBook Pro arrived at the editorial department, so I took a commemorative photo alongside the 13-inch MacBook Pro (M1 / 2020) also in the editorial department.


Well, it's the same MacBook Pro, but the screen size is different and the chip is different. There are many differences, so I compared the MacBook Air (M1 / 2020) together.


After all 14 inch MacBook Pro is big



First from the footprint . From the left are MacBook Air, 13-inch MacBook Pro, and 14-inch MacBook Pro. The MacBook Air and the 13-inch MacBook Pro are almost the same, but the 14-inch MacBook Pro is slightly larger. By the way, the size of the footprint is as follows.

MacBook Air (M1 / 2020): Width 30.41 x Depth 21.24 cm

13-inch MacBook Pro (M1 / 2020): Width 30.41 x Depth 21.24 cm

14-inch MacBook Pro (M1 Pro / 2021): Width 31.26 x Depth 22.12 cm


Differences between 13-inch and 14-inch


There are many differences between the 13-inch MacBook Pro and the 14-inch MacBook Pro besides the screen size and chip.


The narrowness of the bezel is one of them. After all, the 14-inch MacBook Pro has a narrower bezel. Because of this narrow bezel, even 14 inches wouldn't have been that big.

How to delete location information from photos taken with iPhone


 Every time you take a photo with your iPhone, the location is saved with the photo.


This feature, called geotagging , is useful because you can search for photos by location. However, it is inconvenient when you want to share photos without giving information on the shooting location.


The good news is that most social networks delete the photo location information before uploading.


Before sharing photos with services or methods that do not delete the location information, such as message apps, cloud services, and file sharing services (including AirDrop), it is a good idea to delete the location yourself.


This time, I will show you how to easily delete the location where the photo was taken.


How to delete a photo location before sharing


Open the "Photos" app on your iPhone and select the photo you want to share. Tap the share icon in the lower left corner to open the iPhone share sheet.

At the top of the shared sheet (where you can see how many photos you have selected) , tap Options . On the options screen, turn off the "All photo data" slider under "Include".

If this slider is green, it contains the location information of the shooting location. Not included if the slider is gray. Tap Done to save your changes and share your photo.


How to disable geotagging for all photos on iPhone


It only takes a few seconds to delete your location before sharing your photos, but in less than a few seconds you can even geotag your iPhone photos from the beginning.

If that's a hassle, you can easily not record your location when you take a picture.

However, if you disable geotagging, you will not be able to search iPhone photos by location.

Searching for photos by city or country name gives no results. The advantage is that you don't have to worry about inadvertently exposing your location when you share your photos.

For most people, disabling geotagging for accurate location information is a good choice. I still know the approximate location where the photo was taken, but the range is so wide that I don't know the exact location.

To completely disable geotagging, select " None " in " Settings> Privacy> Location Services> Camera " on your iPhone .

To prevent the iPhone camera from recording the exact location information where the photo was taken , check the same settings page as above (" Settings> Privacy> Location services> Camera ") and check anything other than "None". Then turn off the " Accuracy " slider.

Global semiconductor shortage, Apple is finally serious ...

 



I don't know.


For gadget makers, this year has been a tough one. The global shortage of semiconductors has had a major impact on everything from game consoles to graphic cards. Meanwhile, I had the impression that Apple managed to endure it, but apparently that's it. There will be a delay in product shipment in the future.


According to a report by Bloomberg, the source of the story, Apple's new products announced this fall are expected to be delayed in shipment in the future. iPhone 13 series, iPad mini, iPad, Apple Watch Series 7 and MacBook Pro. In addition, the MacBook Air and iMac announced before the fall will be affected. Well, even if it says that it will be delayed, it is said that shipping will be from mid-November to December.


However, it seems that it depends on the area, for example, in New York City where the US Gizmodo editorial department is located, all iPhone 13 models are almost out of stock at any store . At the US official online store, it will be delivered at the end of November at the earliest, and it is difficult for users whose initial response is delayed to obtain it. In addition, it was reported earlier this month that Apple would lower its iPhone 13 production target by 10 million units this year, so it will take some time for the situation to improve.


For some reason, Apple's special polishing cloth, which should not be related to semiconductors, is now shipped in 10 to 12 weeks. Are you trying to test royalties not only on price but also on delivery time ...? It's highly rated by people who are already using cloth, so it may be more popular than expected.


Anyway, if you're looking for Apple products for Christmas or New Year's gifts this year, it's a good idea to stop early.
