Not buying apple anymore.

They're going to run out of letters in the alphabet for their chips at this rate.

 

[sjsharksfan12]

They ran out of M numbers so now they go to N. As Captain Picard said in First Contact, There are plenty of letters left in the alphabet.

Well, as I broke my iPhone 11 display a week ago and am having to use reachability to cope with the top part that ha a broken digitiser, I'm really happy that the base 17 looks ideal for me.

I wanted a deceit camera lens or two, and AOD (so I can use the phone as an alarm clock in standby mode), and it looks like I'm getting it. No need for the Pro.

Just waiting to hear the launch price ...

EDIT: And it still has a SIM slot (well, they made a point the Air doesn't, so I'm assuming).

Bluetooth 6 but still only support AAC and SBC?

 

[svish]

A new chip. Waiting to hear all about it!

 

[tonie walker]

… in just 6 months? but you said years of engineering

It just shows an arrogance - laziness? - from Apple. Like, they no longer have to make any effort to sell us on their products. I remember the old iPhone launches from the past (including the OG).

It's wild. Nothing in here is even an attempt to excite the userbase.

The guy doing the iPhone 17 Air thing with the scratch resistance at least seems slightly excited about what he worked on. Unlike everyone else.

Again, you nailed it! In the older days, Apple knew they had stellar products but they still went the extra mile to show you WHY they were stellar. They drove home and proved it, they didn't leave you empty handed. These presentations just feel so empty and, arrogant...like, they just don't care and assume you WILL go buy an Apple product. I've been a long time Apple supporter and enjoyed their products, but this is just too far. It's all just senseless options and software things majority of people will not use but they just want the product to sound groundbreaking. Essentially, it's those people that write a 2 page resume to fluff it up when it could really just be a single paragraph. I'm getting to the point I just want one of those old Nokia brick phones. They just worked and you could also buy an antenna for it that lit up when people call lol

Apple is one clear dominant segment in SoC

 

[anthorumor]

Soon every Apple CPU will take over the entire alphabet.
N1, C1, A1, M1, etc. etc.

 

[JPack]

Gotta give to Kuo who knew more than a year ago Apple would do their own Wi-Fi and BT chip.

 

[jz0309]

C1X - cool, but I guess still lacking mmWave, but better than C1

 

[ink_]

are these recorded on green screen everyone looks pasted on top

 

[svish]

New cellular modem too. Was not expecting it.

UPDATED PHOTONIC ENGINE TIME BOYS

“What appears to be a single camera…”

That’s because it is. Don’t gaslight us.

 

[marmiteturkey]

I predict that fashion junkies will be all over the Air. Here in London it’ll be on cafe tables EVERYWHERE.

 

[mrgraff]

I mean I realize it's not really live, but I wouldn't have included segments, set in the same country, filmed at night when the host is supposed to be in Cupertino in the morning.

 

[MayaUser]

Give it to Mark that knew 2 years ago about wifi and bt and n1

 

[yanki01]

“Fusion” is a word they like to use

 

[Orange Bat]

Imma put the largest Otterbox I can find on the iPhone Air!

 

[yngrshr]

Soon every Apple CPU will take over the entire alphabet.
N1, C1, A1, M1, etc. etc.

Holding out for the Greek alphabet ones in a few years.

 

[Ameer_1]

Let's see if the leaks are true

 

[trip1ex]

we renamed the iPhone 7 camera Fusion to make it Air worthy.

 

[applepie2100]

It's what they're not telling you that I'm interested in and I'm pretty sure that it will be worse battery life and reduced camera level for a higher price.
