Apple Announces Digital-Only Event to Be Held on October 13: iPhone 12 Expected

[Metrosey]

Gotta give him credit where it's due!

Too be honest, he didn’t really put his reputation on the line by pledging a safe bet which was already mentioned by a credible leaker. If I said that the announcement was coming today, I wouldn’t be really announcing anything that boosts my credibility

 

[edwrap]

Kinda sad, but the only thing from this event that I'll likely be interested in are the AirTags, assuming a reasonable price. Such is the state of Apple innovation these days...

OH BABY! YES! I like that the speed in the name... that hopefully means faster everything.
I expect an entire line refresh! Anything that wasn’t updated in the last 4 weeks is out. And all new stuff is replacing it.

It just mean 5G speed in a few 5G pockets in major city centres. Most of the world with the exception of China is still mostly 4G LTE.

Ordered a MacBook Air on September 25th and it's still "Processing" ... FWIW.

I'd like a less expensive HomePod for Christmas, I've been good...

I ordered an iMac last week. It's a 4 week lead time. I wonder if they are updating next week?

 

[JPack]

It looks like Airtags to me.

Or reverse wireless charging.

 

[Jbusick7944]

I think it's iPad and watch in September, iPhone, Homepods and headphones in October, then Apple silicon Macs in November. Not an original thought, I'm just deducing from that one leaker "idream" or whatever who posted something like "9, 10, 11" in reference to 3 events.

Despite some early rumors of smaller notches, it doesn't look like the notch is shrinking on most models, but we can expect a proportional notch on the smallest 5.4-inch model.

... why would the notch be smaller(?) on the smaller screened iPhone? It's size is to contain the sensors / dot projector / cameras, which would surely be the exact same parts, and therefore size, regardless of the screen size.

New Apple AR

Or reverse wireless charging.

I'm excited! Can't wait to get a 12 Pro Max. Will be my first iPhone in 7 years. I've been struggling along with this crappy Pixel that won't charge properly.

 

[BeefCake 15]

I'd like a less expensive HomePod for Christmas, I've been good...

Including that incident few weekends ago or are we going to let that slide?

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

why???? We all knew this for ages 😩

He does have his sources running.

 

[Chytin]

The crack marketing team now use speed?

 

[kasei]

Apple Card polished and ready!

 

[Arcontia]

Do you reckon "Hi Speed" refers to 120hz has made it in to at least one of the new phones after all?

 

[MacStreamer]

Blue and orange in the logos. We've heard the Pro is getting the new blue color. Is orange another one?

 

[pbridge354]

Why do people give this guy so much credit? He seems to be wrong as often as he's right, and when he's right, it's usually things that weren't hard to guess. Everyone was expecting an iPhone event around mid-month, it's usually on a Tuesday, and the invitations are usually 1 week before.

He was the first to suggest the 13th. Seems like you just hate him.

 

[WaxedJacket]

I have no need for it right now but the smaller phone is very appealing.

 

[snyp1193]

Blue and orange iPhone confirmed!

 

[leesweet]

Some idiocy around thinking four rings meaning Apple Car. When's the last time we had any 'news' on that?

 

[Quicksilver867]

Well, a week from today is when I'll decide whether or not to flex the credit card. Maybe people will finally stop talking about 120Hz.

 

[C7 POWER]

Do you reckon "Hi Speed" refers to 120hz has made it in to at least one of the new phones after all?

No. 120hz is coming in 2021 iPhones.

 

[roland.g]

Awesome. Can we start ordering iPad Air 4s today then.....

 

[SquealingCustard]

Do you reckon "Hi Speed" refers to 120hz has made it in to at least one of the new phones after all?

I don't think Apple would have 2 Pro models one with 120hz and one without too be honest.

Jon Prosser said that the iPhones would be announced the week of October 12. He said this all the way back on Wednesday, August 12. That was over a month and a half before anyone else pointed it out. So yes, he does deserve credit.
