The made up word "wanderlust" is a play on the German term "wanderlust" that means "a strong desire to wander or travel and explore the world."


Also, "wandern" means "hiking".

What Apple product is most closely associated with hiking and "outdoorsiness" , Apple Watch Ultra!?

Could this be an indication that we're getting an iPhone Ultra, or that there's an emphasis on AW Ultra 2 or both Watches, and how their new (presumably) better battery life and maybe GPS improvements allow for more accurate outdoor activities, like running, walking, hiking, biking?

Since this will be the first titanium iPhone ever, and being that AW Ultra is titanium, this would add up to an iPhone Ultra in my mind.

My money is on Apple dropping the first iPhone Ultra (with a complimentary price hike compared to 14 Pro Max😅).

From here on out, iPhone Ultra will be the flagship of flagship iPhones!

Will probably also mean Apple will get increasingly stingy on upgrades for the 6.1 Pros. 🤷‍♂️
I 100% agree, see my comments from earlier.

I think the interpretation of all the rumors should be viewed a little differently.

Wonderlust is hinting at the desire to explore the outdoors. The titanium dust is for a new iPhone Ultra that will match the Apple Watch Ultra. It will be the only phone with titanium and an action button, maybe additional satellite connectivity, improved water proofing, extra screen brightness and bigger battery. This is the phone that will be delayed at launch, per the rumors. This is also the phone that’s getting a price bump and base storage bump.

The remaining iPhone lineup will be similar to last year, with pro models still being stainless steel, but with Thunderbolt 4 USB-C, A17, and big camera improvements. Regular iPhone 15 will get 3.1 USB-C, A16 processor, and new aluminum colors.

I despise pre-recorded presentations and keynotes. They seem so fake, and they remove the magic of the apparent spontaneity of the crowd.
Your choice is between fake/overproduced pre-recorded or awkward silences/obnoxious applause breaks for live. I choose pre-recorded because they can fit more info into a 1 hour video than a 2 hour live presentation.

Its possible the cut-out in the apple is hinting at watch bands. This would jive with rumors of a new Apple Watch X with all new band attachment.

Well we all know that Apple always hides clues in the event name or artwork so….. Wonderlust………
I bet there’ll be a Paul McCartney signature edition, preloaded with the Give my Regards to Broad Street album 😜

I had the song in my head as soon as I read the headline, still there now. Light out Wanderlust, head us out to sea… . I’d have bought a Macca themed iPod & digital box set in a heartbeat back in the day, in the way a U2 Uber-fan friend bought the U2 edition iPod.

Looking forward on the event. On iUP here, so will see what this year has to offer. Loved the 14 Pro & Dynamic Island for the past year.

Given all the new features the ‌iPhone 15 Pro‌ and Pro Max are getting

Do you write this with a straight face?

It’s been over five years since the iPhone received a notable new feature.

I have an 8+. It’s basically identical to the 6+ it replaced. There’s nothing appealing about replacing it with anything Apple is offering.
