After a week hiatus, Zac returns to the show with some eyes-on experience with the Apple Studio Display. Plus, Benjamin and Zac discuss the latest Apple news including rumors of an Apple hardware subscription service, so you can effectively lease an iPhone, and the ‘dream machine’ 15-inch MacBook Air. And, Apple TV+ wins big at the Oscars.
