Podcast 527: 7 Pluses and a few minuses

Glenn and Susie love the iPhone 7 Plus, but still find things to complain about. It's our way.

Both Glenn and Susie have been testing the iPhone 7 Plus, the big one, the fabulous phablet, the one they both thought was too big. But its siren song is steering both your faithful hosts toward the land of really large iPhones and the wonderful cameras they have.

But not all is peaceful in the Mac world—for example, what is up with Photos wanting you to label your people’s Faces on every single device, instead of syncing that metadata via iCloud? Or, at the very least, warning you before you get started doing that work that you might want to save it for the device you use Photos on the most?
