Apple Event Live Blog: iPhone 17, iPhone Air, New Apple Watches, and AirPods Pro 3

3x better scratch resistance is a GOOD thing!

Harder meaning potentially more likely to crack.

 

[MistrSynistr]

"yeah, anyhoo, here's the 17." what a vibe.

 

[yngrshr]

These voice overs are awful

It's like if you asked Siri to do the entire f***ing presentation.

 

[svish]

Waiting to see the improvements the new chip brings.

 

[vladid]

The product specialists presenting all seem robotic and overly polished. They have the same stance and use the same hand gestures.

 

[tonie walker]

wow 120hz on non pro! can’t milk that much anymore

 

[McWetty]

AWU3 in my future. Retiring my AWU1 finally. That hypertension sensing may be enough to get me to my old rear end more active.

 

[Kylo83]

3000 nits outdoors on the base 17 is nice

with auto brightness off which most people have means it will stay the same as before unlike pixel thats much brighter

 

[!!!]

Still 4e/2p? Lol. Still 8GB RAM I'm guessing?

 

[techfreak23]

That lavender color for the 17 is not it. Bring back the Deep Purple for the Pro lineup!

 

[Fortimir]

I’m not going to complain about minor updates like almost everyone else, but I have to admit the overall energy of the entire presentation has been very low.

 

[DMG35]

To those MR members who I told Apple would never bring ProMotion to non Pro models I owe you an apology. My sincerely apologies. When you're wrong you're wrong.

 

[Slash787]

I am going to wait for the iPhone 18

 

[MrGimper]

42 hours on the Ultra probably means 80 or so on low power mode. I’ll take it. The satellite feature was already the selling point for me.

My AWU2 already does over 60 hours without low power mode.

 

[jz0309]

So iPhone 17 as rumored thus far

 

[deckard666]

Same see no reason to upgrade. Might get a new band.

I will be replacing my U2 - sat connectivity sells it for me.

 

[trip1ex]

airpods pro 3 translation: your old phone is ****. Buy the new one now at all costs.

 

[crawfish963]

I don't understand how they can give the ultra a 42 hour battery life, but then only manage up to 24 hours with the standard...

If you'd simply upgrade to the ultra you too can have that sweet battery life! Please spend!

 

[DJM1740]

Ummm there’s clearly something wrong with me. I am struggling to get excited about anything I’ve heard so far.

I liked the hypertension monitoring. I may upgrade from my Series 8. This may override my desire to keep blood O2 monitoring available on the watch.

 

[rafark]

iPhone 17 running iOS 26? How does that os number change make ANY sense? it’s more confusing now

 

[yngrshr]

The product specialists presenting all seem robotic and overly polished. They have the same stance and use the same hand gestures.

Even the people all sound alike.

 

[Slash787]

They should have named it iOS 25 instead of 26

 

[tonie walker]

proud to show that screenshot thing!

 

[MistrSynistr]

I’m not going to complain about minor updates like almost everyone else, but I have to admit the overall energy of the entire presentation has been very low.

Yes. It feels like they just want to blaze thru this thing and get it over with.

 

[Rogifan]

They didn’t give a battery number. Just said “all day”.
