Aww dropping that Liquid Glass.
Shake that illegible booty Apple

I’ll watch it even though I’m not interested in the iPhone 17. I enjoy watching the keynotes. I believe I’ve been watching them since 2005.
Na, we have to deal with the awful crowd cheering on everything at stuff that’s been on Android for years
Awe dropping, you say, Apple. Based on every leak, there is nothing awe dropping being released. I look forward to seeing something worthy of that phrase, but I have a feeling I will leave with a frown of disappointment like nearly every recent year.
I hope not. If Apple introduces an iPhone w/ a thermal imager it'll be a bigger gimmick than the MacBook Pro Touch Bar. Thermal imagers are a niche market - anyone who needs one has one. Anyone who "might use one one some projects" can buy any number of devices from several different brands that are already compatible with the iPhone.
FWIW, FLIR is a brand name that is often (and incorrectly) used as a generic term for a thermal imaging device. They're in a league of legends along with Band-Aid, Scotch tape, and Kleenex.
I am waiting for the iPod pro 3 , I have the 16 pro max , I am not upgrading till 2027 20 yrs phone.
thanks Max

I’m pretty sure those of us waiting for a new iPod are going on be disappointed.
Bought a 5.5gen last week to refurbish. Should be a fun project.
That looks like a thermal image. A heat map. Maybe excellent thermal management with the vapor chamber?
MR stated "new, more durable build with an aluminum frame." I am curious about that claim, because I do not [yet] see how a new iPhone with an aluminum alloy frame can be more durable than the 16 Pro's titanium alloy frame. Unless of course the reference is to other than the alloy frame; certainly the glass components could be made more durable.
In any event, the 16 Pro iPhones are superb, so improving them was a challenge for Apple's engineers.

Ya, my first thought was heat and Apple devices are not a good combo, so why use a heat-map style logo for the event? Cuz it's cool, and hot? Oh, the contradictions...
One way that successful $T companies stay that way is by managing expectations [via "leaks and rumours"] to help maintain stable growth.
Not so much a facade as an exterior frame made of titanium alloy. Aluminum alloys are generally much easier to work with, and it sounds like Apple engineers found an aluminum alloy that works for the exterior frame.
