Apple's latest laptops mostly require dongles now...



Mostly? I would say all. Which is bad obviously.


No, they just require you to have an iPhone or LTE iPad. Then it's one click away without any dongles or wires.

They do expect you to stay within the Apple ecosystem, and it works surprisingly well if you can live with it. It severely limits choice - and won't work for everyone.

Which is the same as an embedded modem. I know the US a third-world country when it comes to mobile networks, but why Apple assumes this is the case in other countries -- I don't get it.
