    Amazon.co.za's underwhelming launch

    The lacklustre product choices yes is indeed a factor but the difference should be in the service. I have not tried Amazon locally, but have done several returns on Amazon.com with no issues. Good luck trying to return something or get something fixed under warranty from Takealot. It took me a...

    iPhone 14 Pro users complaining about rapidly degrading battery life

    IPhone 14 Pro Max, got it at launch and mine’s at 95%. I exclusively charge overnight via magsafe and my hardly drops below 45% after my workday. I had the 13 Pro Max before this which had 98% when I traded it in. The always on display could be the culprit on the Pros. Hopefully this will be...

    iStore and Digicape launch 15-inch MacBook Air and M2-powered Mac Studio

    Exactly! The comments slating apple hardware are often from people who have never used or owned one. We develop software, and for the last 10 years we only buy Mac and they just last. We pass the older macs to junior devs and even at the current cost premium, we still keep buying them. They last...

    Vodacom's network lie

    Ditto! Non existent reception in load shedding. The worst is dealing with MTN at business level. They are the most arrogant bunch of people, as a supplier, I have ever dealt with. “You are so blessed to be dealing with us” seems to be the prevailing attitude where the Vodacom team I deal with...

    Former Vodashop owner says Vodacom undercut franchisees when customers came in to cancel

    Experienced this first hand this week - been speaking to Chatz and suddenly a very pushy lady from some call centre phones me to say I'm paying too much by upgrading at Chatz and that she can give me a better deal, but for "today only" type of thing. I declined her offer and said I'll upgrade...

    MTN, Vodacom, ad Cell C remote working policies

    Any company forcing staff to go back to the office after successfully operating during the covid period is doomed imho! Collaboration is BS and does not exist - you have productive staff requiring very little management interaction and then the dead wood - that will not change. Companies are...

    For the Samsung fans out there...

    Samsung Galaxy S22 depreciates nearly 3x more than iPhone 13 just two months after launch Amazing that this does not get covered by MYBB. If this had been the other way around it would be on the front page...

    SABC pushes public media levy to replace TV licences

    Here is an idea SABC, provide a platform that delivers value and maybe customers will actually pay you for it....but wait , you would actually need to know how to run a business to do that . Their dilemma is that their viewers are mostly the pensioners and indigent people in SA they are willing...

    Apple is killing iPhone privacy, says EFF

    VERY VERY sneaky MBB - you got us all to click to check the anomaly. Should've known there is no such intelligence in our local EFF organisation. Well positioned clickbait!!

    The 10 best-selling smartphones of all time

    That is exactly the difference today, it’s not just a phone anymore. In fact the phone portion is way down the list. Today, with all the players moving to other revenue streams like subscription based services, the hardware is just a portion of the ecosystem you buy into, and if the ecosystem...

    Adapt IT and Volaris deals under threat following Sbu Shabalala's assault allegations

    Agreed, and I also can’t shake this weird feeling that My Broadband keeps posting these allegations like a cheap tabloid trying to get clicks and views rather than reporting on actual tech news. This is not news, this is sensationalism. Keep your focus MBB and leave the gossip to the tabloids -...

    Questions raised over Adapt IT CEO Sbu Shabalala’s property deal

    The Huge CEO is not a happy camper because there is now a better offer on the table. Maybe he should think about the damage his public attacks are doing and what picture he is painting for his own potential future investors.

    New household tax proposed for funding the SABC

    The problem is not the funding my dear Deputy Minister, but the way these funds are being misappropriated by your colleagues in the cANCerous organisation you represent. As long as you have incompetent people that have no idea how to manage a business, you are doomed. Add to that the fact that...
