I can’t remember but wasn’t it a scooter in the add? They said that’s ok it’s more high power speed bikes that were the issue than your UberEats delivery guy.
I'm usually the one that says "oh people say that every year..." And while these are great devices, I find myself to be underwhelmed in terms of excitement. I know there can't be ground breaking innovation every year, and maybe we just got spoiled with the technology boom/slingshot from 2005-2015... maybe we are being too critical. But as someone who is in the market for a watch upgrade, I think I'm going to hold off another year. Was hoping for additional health sensors such as temperature.
I have used my ultra wide on my far more often than I ever did the telephoto on my 8.
I got the Z Flip 3 this year still loving it. Battery eh, but I was coming from a 12 mini and its about the same as that
I still might go for the 13, seems like a significant enough upgrade. I’ll be waiting until sometime next year anyway as I intend to go Apple refurb.
Someone needs to teach Apple how to edit. Far too long considering how few announcements there were.
Pretty good update over my XR in processor and camera. This is one of the "S" years. In January they might show up in the refurb store for $100 off. I like the colors.
You're not being too critical. Apple doesn't make major changes to their phones because they don't need to. People just buy them because it's new. Most smartphones have a hole punch notch for the front camera, fingerprint reader under the screen (or power button), on and on. It's not that Apple can't make these features, they're making a conscious effort NOT to. Every year we hear the same thing about all these wild features Apple will have for the "next" iPhone, and every year people are let down and complain when these supposed "inside leaks" turn out to be B.S.
I have an iPhone XS and even after today's event, see absolutely nothing that makes me even feel tempted to upgrade to a new model. I'm fine with that because it saves me money, but Apple is going to keep incremental increases until their sales fall, and people need to accept that reality.
I need more information about macro mode!
Apple today announced the iPhone 13 mini and iPhone 13, both featuring a smaller notch, repositioned rear-cameras, improved performance, and more while maintaining the same 6.1-inch and 5.4-inch sizes of their respective iPhone 12 predecessors.
The new iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 mini, as rumored, includes a smaller notch allowing for more display area. In specific, Apple said that the notch is 20% smaller. Staying on the front, the new Super Retina XDR display is 28% brighter with 1200 nits peak brightness.
Inside, the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 mini are powered with the brand new A15 Bionic chip. Built on the 5nm process, the A15 Bionic chip features a 6-core CPU with two high-performance and four high-efficiency cores. Embedded into the A15 Bionic chip is a new 16-core Neural Engine, capable of 15.8 trillion operations per second.
On the back, the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 mini include a new and more advanced dual-camera system. The wide 12MP sensor allows for 47% more light, a 26mm focal length, and on the Ultra Wide camera, the new iPhones include sensor-shift technology from the "Pro" iPhones.
With video, Apple is introducing "Cinematic mode," which uses the power of A15 to automatically blur the background during a video, allowing the subject to stay in focus. During filming, users can tap on different subjects to shift focus.
Carrying over from the iPhone 12, the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 mini features Ceramic Shield, IP68 water resistance, and five new colors, including pink, blue, midnight, starlight, and red.

This will be my very first iPhone(I have a samsung galaxy s6 which barely works anymore) and Im planning on getting the 256GB version..just not sure between the iPhone 13 or the iPhone 13 pro..is there really much difference besides the price which is a 200 buck difference between the two?
An important thing to note about Cinematic mode, is that while yes focus can be choosen during recording as noted in this article, they also mentioned in they Keynote that subject focus can be edited later during editing as well like how portrait mode can be. That's pretty big/cool.
because they're not going to put it all behind the display next year.
Nothing too compelling. My X lives for another year. Need to replace my cracked S3 watch though, so not escaping completely unscathed.
I'll be switching from 12 Pro to 13 mini personally, ProMotion is cool and all but the price difference for that and camera functions I won't be using.. I was hoping an orange Pro would come out but colors don't matter enough still.
Is Starlight just white/silver basically? I wish we had real photos, not just promo photos.
