NO professional photographer is going to use an iPhone to capture work shots with an iPhone.
I could see doing test shots for color or something, but Apple is deluding itself if it thinks any of that is happening.
It is a good on the go camera. I admit I used it for the FIRST time downtown Philly back in April. Not bad, all RAW images, 4K video...ran the battery down to 10% in 4, 4 1/2 hours.

BUT...I just have to go with my old, but trusty Canon 5D, tripod 99.9999% of the time

He's not wrong. Brighter displays, Titanium, Ray Tracing and Spatial Photography truly make this a Pro phone. It's just not for me.
 
Was pretty disappointing but will grab one for spatial videos since I’ll be getting a vision pro.
 
Wow... that was the most boring and disappointing announcement video Apple has ever done.
Tell me there wasn't a third product originally planned that had to be pushed back, so they threw together that cringe Mother Nature segment at the last minute with one of their on-contract talents to fill in the time.
 
How has Apple not released a gaming counsel? Seems like a natural market given their hardware capabilities.

Instead they built a specific watch for like the 1800 hardcore scuba divers out there?

Because they make more money from games already then Microsoft and Sony do combined! Every single game sold or n app purchase made in a game in ANY iOS device nets Apple 15 to 30% of the purchase price. Add that up and it's literally billions. They do not need to make a games console.
 
Because it would be $800+ and go the way of the 3-DO and Jaguar.
Honestly, the Apple TV 4K makes a pretty good console, and/or you can just AirPlay from your iDevice to it or compatible TVs.

Arcade / App Store has become one of the biggest game platforms without a dedicated game device, because all their devices can now play the same games, more or less.

An Apple TV 4K upgrade to A17 Pro would be sweet, though. I expect those ray-tracing features will filter into the Vision Pro as well.
 
Not quite getting excited.
The only 15PM feature that might get me to upgrade would be true optical zoom with the periscope lens, everything else rumored is meh…

And for AW, if there is no new health sensor, the same meh…

3D video capture is good
 
I miss the old days of true reveals of exciting new features, mostly size and speed but now its reached a stabilization that different colors, different materials and improvement to camera is just not enough to upgrade from a 1 or 2 year old phone. However, USB-C... oh wait... I wireless charge at home, work and in my car so never mind...lol
