What have we become? $1145 to play with animated emoji. :(
Wow thats cheap. Mine was $1799 after currency conversion. Whenever I see that unicorn saying "You're pretty!"… it was worth every penny. And that magical creature can't stop talking.
 
There are many things that Apple have done to raise the standard of human creativity and interaction. This is not one of them.

The Bohemian Rhapsody video is one of the most creative things I’ve seen someone do with an Apple device. In your eyes, what previous technologies/inventions inspired more creativity than this?

MacPaint (1984), HyperCard, PageMaker, Illustrator, Photoshop, Final Cut Pro...
Ironically, 3D delivers a level of superficiality that is unprecedented indeed.

I didn't think Ebay allowed you to use copyright music like this.
Have they changed their policy ?

Relax. This is a fun perk.

Having fun would be discovering the great outdoors not this materistic s**t!

Relax.

Discovering the outdoors while going to the bathroom in every day life is difficult. Now you can have a bit of extra fun while doing 1&2.

The year 2017, and this is what people use technology for, if anyone wonders.

Some clowns use Twitter from a position of power to ridicule, insult, and bring people down, and they seem to be having fun with it.

So... your point is?

I don’t think you understand the comment I quoted, or my response.

First off, we’re talking about Apple inventions. Only two of the things you listed were initially developed by Apple.

Secondly, we’re talking about inventions that inspire people to exercise creativity. I dare say none of the software you mentioned - especially the latter - inspire anything; they merely facilitate it.

With Animoji, 1 day after the device is released, we have non-creatives making engaging & enjoyable content because the technology has inspired them, and it’s so easy to use they don’t need to spend months learning it unlike the tools you mentioned (again, the latter). That is incredible. Whether or not you personally find it “superficial” is literally of no consequence whatsoever.

The human race is doomed.
Not because of this, surely?

3D modeling enabling tools have been around for a few decades.
But Apple only got interested as it now can facilitate the billions - fow whom an hours' learning curve is too much. Now if that's not superficiality - explain me what is.
 
Nope, I’m actually a fun person. I simply find it inexcusable with the issues in today’s world that the main attraction of an $1,145 phone is Animated Emoji. As a society we should be ashamed of these materialistic desires. These features do nothing but drive us deeper into our devices isolating us from reality. :apple:

Wtf
 
100% these were sponsored and or encouraged by apple prior to the launch. The amount of time for this quality of production and evolution is just too short for it to have started Friday morning.

It’s great really great. But was in the can well before Friday. JMHO
 
Are you kidding me? I don't even send regular texts anymore. Everything I send people is in the form of an animoji.
