The last shot of the AirPods Pro 3 commercial shows them changing color to black… Does this mean we will get black Airpods pro in the future? Or is it just supposed to be a shadow?

I was expecting them to make the case smaller so we can carry them on our pockets easier. They did them bigger. I cant believe. Who runs this company????
 
Why was everyone presenting at the keynote wearing an Apple Watch series 11 instead of the new Apple Watch Ultra do they not believe in that product anymore

I have an Apple Watch Ultra 1 and will downgrade to the standard Series 11 in November or December for my birthday/ Christmas. The ultra is a good watch but since I don't do extra sports ( hiking, gym time) is the most extreme physical activities I do, it just seemed like a waste to spend the extra money for the ultra three when I won't really use it to it's full potential. The ultra was marketed towards people who do extreme sports or a lot of outdoor activities and was kinda niche. To this day, I rarely see people with Apple Watch ultras, I see more people with the standard Apple Watches or the SE versions.
 
Yeah but still after all these years Filipino is still not supported. My wife has dementia and be a Filipina she is gradually losing her ability to clearly communicate in English as it is her second language. I found an app that does translate but it slow and clunky. It is kind of disappointing as the Philippines has 110,000,000 persons living there and no support natively
Try chat gpt. Record the statement and have it transcribe it.

The overall problem is that their are many dialects within the Filipino language and they are taught English at young age so they fall through the cracks because they know English. For instance I heard Google translate is not good for Tagalog.
 
probably majority of the people speak english and iPhone is not a major player in the smartphone market. We are always at the bottom.
I agree but to not support the language when other languages are supported kind of makes it hard to understand. Yes English is widely spoken in the Philippines but to use Chatgp is still a slow clunky way as I have used it before and some Tagalog words are totally messed up

Yep. Can’t wait to get rid of mine. Bought it for specs. Specs kinda caught up on reg line and those watches look much better.
 
I think the added passive noise cancellation from the foam earpod tips makes this one of the standout products from the keynote. Heartbeat tracking is interesting. I’m very curious to see its accuracy put to the test by reviewers.

I did preorder mine because even though there are no new sound changes, that added passive noise cancellation is a big plus for me.
 
Any update to the internal mic on iphone pro? So Siri can hear us better? That was supposed to happen 2 years ago.
Any increase in charging speed?

Wear an apple watch so don't see point of the heartbeat tracking. Plus don't wear airpods long enough to matter much. Though these are water proof or sweat proof for first time i thought i read. Might be good for gym but rather use crappy ones for that.

Siri could hear me perfectly and it still sucks. But i mean no problems on current ones hearing me so not sure what the benefit is here.

Yeah that’s a good call out. The heart beat sensor on Apple Watch is going to be way more accurate, especially since it combines motion sensing data in its calculations when calculating. And yeah I’m skeptical of the waterproof rating on the new AirPod Pros. Apple doesn’t even mention if the AirPods try to shake the water out like the Phone speakers do.

The waterproof is handy once you decide to wash your AirPods with laundry. I tried it once — oh boy, they came out sparkling clean. 😅

No problems back then and still none today. That was about 1.5 years ago.
