Susie bought a new iPhone 6s in an Apple Store , but could n’t get the subsidized price she wanted since she was n’t buying from AT&T , who would only ship it to her house , where she was n’t going to be . Glenn bought his iPhone sextuplet at an Apple Store as well , after stalking the reservations system for days since you’re able to only get the unexampled iPhone Upgrade Plan if you buy in individual , not online ( yet , anyway ) .
What the heck is going on ? !
To help us sort out through this madness — not to note all the deal carriers are drop in an effort to get you to switch — we talk to Dan Frakes , senior editor at The Wirecutter , and of course still - beloved former Macworld staff member . Dan helped pen a really utilitarian , amazingly comprehensive article about how to corrupt an iPhone , because these sidereal day it just is n’t as well-off as it used to be .
Then , get the popcorn ready because it ’s Macworld at the Movies . Caitlin McGarry and Oscar Raymundo each control early cover of Steve Jobs , the unexampled dramatization of the Apple cofounder ’s biography , written by Aaron Sorkin and directed by Danny Boyle . They join Susie for a conversation about the movie and the reaction it ’s getting from Apple fans .
