It is like I wanted to watch a movie, but my friend already told you all the plots. All the sudden I lost the excitement of watching that movie. But I will still choose to go watch that movie.

I do get that... But what bugs me are the people that will later complain about how awful it was to watch the movie when they already knew the the whole plot.
 
Very excited! I just hope there's a live stream. I really hope there's a live stream OMG there better be a live stream!!!!
 
For the first time in several years I'm not excited one bit for the Apple event. We pretty much know everything about iOS 7 now and it's a bit of a disappointed for me and I think we all know there isn't going to be a bigger iPhone. So much so I actually just bought an S4.

I think this will be the first time I'm not going to buy a brand new iPhone on release day since the 3G. Sad cause I want to like the iPhone again!

You just said it. You want a bigger iPhone until then you won't move.

iPhone events (especially the years in which I don't upgrade, like this one) aren't as exciting as WWDC because everything gets leaked. It'll be fun to upgrade to the GM, (but not terribly exciting as I'm running b6, and I don't expect any new features) but the Mac/iPad stuff later in October should be better as it'll be more of a surprise.

You should do what quite a few people are doing. If your on iOS 7 beta 6, downgrade to iOS 6 and once the GM of iOS 7 is released you'll appreciate it more.
 
For someone who bought a Android phone, how it works with Apple products ??? Especially the iMac...I have all the Apple products...iMac, Apple TV, iPad, iPhone...

I'm a bit afraid to change my iPhone 5 for HTC One, for example...

If your deeply routed into the Eco System don't bother moving lol. Got a S4 as a birthday present. Thought i'd put my iPhone down for a week. 30 minutes later rushed back home and swapped sims again.

The Eco system is one thing, the other Android is too complicated. Apple has made me to use simplicity.

Android phone works pretty great on Macs. You don't need apps like iTunes to sync music, books, apps... All you need to do is download an app called: Android file transfer. Then you are done.

It is clear that Android does not work well with Apple eco system, meaning that if you swtich to Android, you loss iMessage, you loss iCloud etc.

I have Nexus 4 and I have MacBook Air, iPads, iPhone, Mac Mini and a Hackintosh. I also have Nexus 7, several Windows PC, 2 Linux laptop. Andorid is perfect for me.

Android is too complicated? Really? Clearly you didn't even bother to try this Android.

I mean you have all your app on app draw and your frequent apps on the front with all widgets.How is this even complicated?
 
I use a Nexus 4 for a couple of weeks last winter...back to iPhone 5 for the ecosystem...But feel Android was very slow compare to iOS

The only thing i miss a lot are the widgets!!!!
 
I'm excited. Not because I'm going to buy the new phone but because ios7 will make my iPhone 5 a new phone. I'm not a developer so installing iOS 7 for the first time will completely change my iPhone experience. Looking forward to it. Wouldn't be opposed to a new Apple TV but if not iOS 7 will do.

What incredible new technologies were introduced in last say 2 years? In past 3 years, keynotes were nothing but he confirmation about rumours. All those rumours were pretty much true. Take iPad min rumour, take iOS 7 rumours, take iPad retina display rumour....etc.

Then blame the media, they report on all these rumors lol. I'm still excited regardless of the rumors. Unless it's another iPhone 4s keynote, i'll be picking up a 5s lol and you never know Apple might just have another ONE MORE THING moment, we'll see on tuesday.:apple:

What is it to be excited about? All these damn leaks told us everything we need to know about the two new iPhones. I will pass on upgrading this year, it's just not worth it coming from a 5. The 5 is good for another year for me. I wasted an upgrade last year and paid AT&T $250 early upgrade fee for a 4s that quickly got boring after 2 weeks, coming from an iPhone 4. Apple need to seriously start redesigning every year. For once I will be practical and not jump on the " I have to have the latest and greatest" wagon. I'm more excited of ios 7 and third party apps updating to ios 7 more than anything.

But why should apple redesign every year. some people's upgrade cycle lands on the "S" year and its a great upgrade from them. Alot of you guys seem negative to this keynote just because you know whats coming. If you feel that way, stay off of macrumors, don't keep up with all the rumors. Most of the fault lands with the media and rumor sites, but some of it lies with yourself, no one is holding a gun to your head and forcing you to read anything. Why should apple have to do something no other company does? Do we hold apple to some invisible standard, say the same thing to Samsung lol.

People are pretty harsh towards Galaxy S4 for keeping old design...

I also don't see iPhone 5S is worth upgrade from iPhone 4S as well. Even if I stay away from rumours sites, it is kind hard for me to get excited over S releases.

Its complicated for me. I can probs get my head around it but why do I have to ? With the iPhone I dont have to change myself to use it. With Android It just too many settings this that, i really cant be bothered!
 
I'm not excited at all, as we pretty know everything that will be announced.

I'll still watch it though, as I'm interested to see the implementation of the fingerprint sensor, the pricing, the colours and any exclusive software features. I'm interested, not excited.

WWDC had me truly excited. Mavericks and iOS 7 blew me away - it's much better when it's a software event, as you rarely know what's coming.

Sorry but got to say I have a iPhone and a nexus 4 and the nexus is lightning fast but in iPhone's defence the nexus is very custom with rom and kernel to my specs and. iPhone is not jail broken but I would still put nexus in front for power
 
Never expect too much and you won't be disappointed !!!
Rumors, Leaks, Mock Ups are all worthless until Apple says its real. Even seeing a patent filing doesn't mean it's going to be on the next IPhone
We already know it will look just like the Iphone5 but with some improvements.... Nothing more

iOS is the one really complicated. This is 2013, people have more than 1 computers, but you still can't sync music from more than 1 computers. It is still impossible for me to send one file from one app to other app ( for example, I downloaded a movie from my torrent app and there is no way for me to send this file to my video app.)

All Apple fan think above things aren't useful and trying their best to defends Apple. But the fact is that when it gets into real work flow, iOS is way to complicate than Android
