Ep. 11 - The AppleTV is Just Better

from Professor of Genius Hosted by Scott Baker

In this episode, we're diving into the Apple ecosystem — from Apple TV vs Roku and Fire Stick performance, to the rumored next-gen Apple TV 4K with the A17 chip. We talk about the evolution of Apple remotes (touchpad vs click wheel), the shift from iOS 7's flat design to iOS 26's Liquid Glass look, and what skeuomorphism actually means in modern Apple design. We also break down hidden Safari gestures you probably didn't know about, Apple Mail categories and search limitations, Apple Intelligence and the future of AI inside Apple's ecosystem, AirTags 2 range upgrades, and whether the nano-texture iPad display is actually worth it. If you care about Apple design, UI decisions, performance, and where Apple is headed next — this one's for you.
