Apple W1 Headphone Chip

These are my first wireless earphones and man am i glad i got them. With the Apple W1 chip pairing with my iPhone is seamless. Also since im not an audiophile, the sound quality i would say is just right for the casual listener.

After much research I purchased the BeatsX headphones from many similar products. I like its W1 Bluetooth chip which enables the headphones to stay connected to my iPhone phone through walls. Nice. The BeatsX will also allow fast charging and a long battery life of up to 8 hours. I really like all these convenient features and to my ears they sound great.

If you use the apple headphone adapter, you can also use it with iPhone X

I use it with the Nikon ME-W1 on a D500. Works great.

This Apple iPad was purchased to upgrade an older iPad. The M1 chip performance is wonderful and the screen resolution very sharp. The 128 Gb of memory is ample storage for all my applications and pictures. B&H Photo Video continues to be my go to electronics e-commerce store.

This device can replace most laptops and is lightening fast with its M2 chip, which allows for Apple to use less RAM with greater efficiency. It may be overkill compared to most tablets, but this can replace a laptop for most casual users.

I replaced a very old iMac with this (yellow) M1 chip version just days ago. It's VERY fast and as any Apple device also very easy to use. I upgraded the memory to 16GB (max) and 1TB SSD storage. It is so much ahead of my pre-2010 Intel iMac! It was pricey but worth it.

I recently upgraded my 2017 Mac Desktop with an Apple 24 iMac with M3 Chip (Blue). I am very happy with this model. It runs incredibly smooth and the transfer of all of my data and settings was flawless. I highly recommend this Apple Desktop model.

The physical drive itself is great. I really like the SoftRAID software it comes with but it has two issues: You have to completely disable Apple's T2 chip security feature for SoftRAID to install its driver. I believe if they worked with Apple, Apple could sign the driver and allow it to be installed with the T2 chip setting allowing T2 security turned on with SoftRAID driver. A fix may be on the way for that. Second, the RAID drive does not show up on the About this Mac Storage status. Not a big deal. Otherwise SoftRAID is very easy to use, clear graphical user interface. It is what Apple's RAID setup should be. So far I have had no need to use it to rebuild/recover a RAIDed drive. Therefore I can give no feedback. This is being used on a 2019 Mac Pro.

Affinity Photo is powerful software and does everything I need. It is fully optimized for Apple's new M1 chip which makes Affinity Photo very quick. The one time purchase makes it an incredible value compared to the monthly subscription model of Photo Shop.
