People say Apple isn't innovating anymore, but this is true innovation. Putting chips like this into mainstream devices that most consumers use and most other companies in our daily lives can actually have a stab at implementing to make our lives better. Sure, Android had NFC first, but nobody cared or could realistically find it supported locally outside of big cities until Apple Pay and the likes were launched. Hope this is the same for indoor navigation (e.g. at airports you've never been to before, to find the gate quickly)..
I'm sure someone has already said this, but do you think the 'R' in R1 probably stands for Reality? A reality coprocessor sounds pretty exciting.
The current iPhones come with a set of EarPods. They connect to the lightning port and sound ok. So, no need to buy wireless. What’s the issue?
The opposite of saying it’s not innovation and keep repeating and people believe? Everyone has their personal definition of innovation.
You apparently are not aware of the fact that iPhone’s have had an always on motion coprocessor for years since the iPhone 5s and that having this coprocessor saves power and increases battery life. No amount of bolding can hide your ignorance.
So, might these tiles, in addition to having tracking functions, act like NFC tags and allow you to set ‘modes’ when you are near?
Get in your car and you have the option of shifting into driver mode (Maps app, Podcast app). In work mode, you’re asked if you want to only be interrupted when you have openings in your schedule, etc.

Why stop there? Have robots replace the workers. Automation will be one of the ways there will be less “workers” in society, so I don’t think you’re thinking this all the way through
I would imagine Apple did their research and recognized that many of their users no longer used wired headphones so the adapter was a waste of money. Sounds like they made a business decision. Sure, not everyone wants to use wireless headphones, but there is no doubt that wireless is the future. Other companies are moving on too. I suppose if someone really really needs it, there are plenty of options out there, just seems like a silly sticking point.
Seriously: Why can't Apple make an edge-to-edge display for its phones?!?!?!
Is it because their design team is too lazy?

I'm not saying the new features on the new phones just announced lack innovation...but my sense is overall it's an incremental improvement...don't get me wrong I'm still gonna get the 11 pro max...it may have been better to change the strategy and announce a less incremental new model every two years..
Yes they support existing standards. Where's the part where Apple combines multiple new sensors together to allow new functionality?
You can accept where this is going and prepare for it, or stick head in the sand and be surprised by it.
