I really don't need another phone, but the SE is sounding really good .... I don't use 3D Touch on my 6S+ as it is ....

If only the 64gb was €450 and not €599 here, I'd let my impulsiveness rule my wallet. As it stands I don't need - but desire.

I was going to purchase the new iPad and now it comes out that it only has 2GB of RAM? Are you kidding me?? The same as iPhone SE or even my old iPad Air 2. Why the hack do you call it PRO? This is insane.. Now I'm really considering getting the big iPad Pro..

Yeah, **** you Apple, I am buying your more expensive product now. That will teach you!

The SE sounds like a solid release and I predict it'll do very well. The 9.7 iPad "Pro" with the same amount of RAM as my Air 2, means I probably won't be upgrading right now.

Almost no app developer will target the very tiny 4GB memory iDevice market. No matter how you put it, early adopters have been screwed unless they really really wanted a bigger screen.

That is probably true except for programs like Procreate, where I assume more RAM = more Layers. Which is a big deal.

Wouldn't going from a 6S+ to SE be a downgrade for battery life though?

iPhone SE just gone up in my book! Shame it's only 5-6 month before iPhone 7 renders it about $250.

iPad Pro 9.7 feels more like the iPad Pretender - with only 2GB ram; look at the screenshot it's already used 77% RAM. Gee.

At Pro 9.7's price level between the camera bump, the 2GB RAM, USB 2 - it's a upgrade to be skipped - bring OLED next time please!

So, about the iPad pro, that is really cheap. They pulled the same sh.t last year with the mini 4.
" it has the same hw as the air2"
" it has the same a9x chip as the bigger iPad Pro "

Rather have they put in a 8mp camera without a hump and put in 4gb.

Really disappointing!

laughable the iPhone 6+ shipped with 1GB RAM, makes the phone all but useless. Can't even quit Safari and go back without forcing a page reload.
