On the plus side I'm glad I didn't wait to buy a MBP

No leather cases lol smh

Get a Cuadabe. Better than Apple leather anyway.

The highlights for me were the comments in this thread

The best thing was the Mother Nature skit.

I kept the stream going just in case Cook came back two minutes later and said "Oh s***, I almost forgot, one more thing..."

Good time to load up, then!

This is it. Final thoughts and remarks?

THANKS TIM APPLE

iCloud+ has been around for a long time. They're just adding more storage options.

right, apparently I actually have it as part of Apple One. Just did not know it was called Plus. Thought it was just called iCloud.

I remember when there was one more thing and iPhone X. It was thrilling. This 💩 is not.

This confuses me a lot. If we are going to kill animals for food, I would want as much as possible to be used so that their death wasn't in vain. dropping leather isn't going to stop animals being killed.

Good news is that there will be 3rd party leather cases.

So iOS 17 will be released...... ???
September 18th?

I'm guessing the day the new iPhones are available.

For action button, says default is still mute by holding. But can press to access one of the other options. So that means assuming one leaves their phone in mute 24/7, we can set press to camera and hold to bring up shortcuts (aka numerous then one click options including presumably mute? If so that's amazing.

People seem to be underwhelmed but I love the new titanium design and I want to capture spatial videos. I won’t be getting a Vision Pro anytime soon but I want my memories to be “upgradeable” some day when I do…

Biggest disappointment for me is the new iCloud+ tiers (btw, when did they start calling it iCloud+?). I don’t need 6TB, Tim, I just need something between 50GB and 2TB. But I’m sure they know that most people would go for 500GB or 1TB so they purposely don’t offer those.

No iPod Socks? Event this fun deserves iPod Socks!

RIP iPhone mini.

 

[Four oF NINE]

No leather cases lol smh

Get one from TwelveSouth. They're superior

 

[aue123]

no increase in battery life, hopefully the pro max doesn’t take a hit

 

[redbeard331]

They did show the tele lens is now a periscope, it’s just that it’s only 120mm, or 5x. Other phones like the Galaxy has had 10x for years now so Apple once again is years late to the party and arrived with no pants on.

Also, no mention of battery or screen improvements? They always improve the screens yearly, hard to believe they just recycled the 14 pro’s screen!!!😳

 

[xxray]

I’m confused. 3nm chip - only 10% performance improvement and no battery life improvements at all? Did Apple reduce the physical battery size and rely on processor improvements to cover for the difference?

 

[LeeW]

Not complaining too much. I am happy with the 14 Pro, S8 watch and have the new MBA. It's not been a bad year overall.

 

[zach-coleman]

I wonder how much 12TB of iCloud storage is gonna run you

 

[Orange Bat]

If I can get a $1000 trade-in from my carrier then I may just upgrade. It would be around $3 a month, which is nothing.

 

[PJM83]

Yes only about 1 dollar price increase in Sweden! 15 Pro Max here I come!

 

[DJM1740]

I was surprised that there was no mention of iOS 17 release date. Yes I get that it was announced at WWDC but you would think that it would have gotten at least a mention since it's going to be powering these new devices.

 

[DanneP]

RIP iPhone Mini.

I know a lot of you guys here will just tell me "It didn't sell!! Can't justify it!!" but I don't care.
