We've been hearing rumors about a foldable iPhone for almost a decade now, but it looks like we might finally see the device come to fruition in 2026. We're going to be waiting many more months for the foldable iPhone, but so far we're hearing good things.

I know I run the risk of rants about my posting, but considering the price and technology of the Macbook Air 13" for $1250 at Best Buy (Student discount only), I figured I would share my recent purchase...a Lenovo Yoga 13":
● Processor: 8th Generation Intel® Core™ i7-8550U Processor (1.80GHz 8MB) ● Operating System: Windows 10 Home 64 ● Display Type: 13.3" UHD IPS AntiGlare Multitouch (3840x2160) with integrated camera ● Memory: 16.0GB DDR4 2133 MHz ● Hard Drive: 1TB PCIe SSD ● Graphics: Intel® UHD Graphics 620 ● Bluetooth: Bluetooth Version 4.1 ● Pen: Lenovo Active Pen included ● Keyboard: Backlit English Keyboard
The above config cost me $1334 plus tax.
The Macbook Air 13" is using a 5th gen i7, 1/2 the RAM, 1/2 the drive, much less resolution at 1440 by 900, etc. and basically $70 cheaper than today's first-rate specs on the Yoga. Oh, and the sale price is only good for Students...so really it's $1549 for the Macbook Air.
The Yoga is also touchscreen and includes a pen. This is truly one bad-*** machine...even if I don't use the pen and touchscreen. Weight is the same as the Air at 2.9 pounds and the keyboard is glorious.
I like the Macs but Apple needs to do a better job at quick refreshes and better specs.
