The delightfully messy state of Apple gadgets
The iPhone has more screens! The MacBook has a touchscreen! The HomeView does CarPlay apps!

On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay debate the merits of a touchscreen laptop, Nilay explains why he is absolutely positively going to buy the new MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR Display, and David asks, as always, could this have been an iPad?
