Part of our environmental impact considerations you can trade in your lightning cables for Type-C at any Apple Store for free.

Right Apple? It's not about the money its for the environment.

"We suggest you donate your old Lightning cables to another family that didn't need to update their 11-month old iPhone."

i’ve been keeping it on mute until they get to the pros. this is a snooze fest

 

[antiprotest]

Why aren't they showing USB-C??? Come stop dragging it. It's a big deal.

Maybe they will announce Lightning 2.

Yeah, 2nd Gen UW band... Kind of depends on your provider??
I have TRASH Verizon, I never got 1st Gen 5GUW..and barely get 5G.

Unwatchable and pompous. Where do these events go next? Will Apple be filming an entire one hour made for tv movie highlighting their new releases? I want to see them go back into the trenches, go on stage and be vulnerable again.

Apple: We improved wireless charging so you do not need to plug into USB C cords

For the love of God, someone tell Timbot to stop doing the prayer-hands-knee-bends.

unrealistic video at the farmer's market. should be 80% staring at their phone.

Finding your friend is a nice feature, but I assume both need to have a U2 chip for it to work. If true, the feature will not be useful before a few years

 

[contacos]

did they dub these people? does not even sound like they are the ones talking

Voice isolation should activate automatically when you get a call.

Hey Siri, what time is it? "I have sent a link to your phone to help you with this".

 

[applepie2100]

Why do I need machine learning for better call quality??

But it sounds so much fancier!

Voice isolation looks cool!

 

[PHGamer]

its the same chip as last year for the iphone?

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

Maybe they will announce Lightning 2.

Lightning Pro?

 

[macduke]

Why doesn't the the voice isolation just automatically turn on when it detects it's noisy?

 

[AAPLGeek]

This event feels like they didn’t have much to announce and really as stretching it out. Spending all this time basically re-announcing the 14 Pro from last year.

They could literally remix the last four iPhone events and it won't be any different.

Bring me to the Marimba Ranch!

f1.6? iPhone 14 Pro is f1.78

A lower f-stop number means a bigger aperture, so it captures more light - it's better. This is why the newer iPhones do really well in low light situations. You would use a higher f-stop for bright light like sunny outdoor shots.

Traditional telephoto lenses, by their nature, capture less light, which is why one would usually need a very big / long telephoto lens to get detailed distance photos, as in wildlife and sports photography.

Portrait lenses aka prime lenses are shorter in length and capture more light. So having lower f-stop limits on both is great.

"Optical quality 2x zoom"...so digital zoom.

does it use the 48MP camera to create the 2x zoom?

 

[banovism]

Of course they have apples here!
