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

Again no numbers on battery life. Just “all day”.

 

[winxmac]

Decades-old plastic. Another "courage" moment.

 

[turbineseaplane]

Well many times local physical sim cards give much better data for the price rather than Esim.

Exactly what their "partners" don't like

Again, this guy (talking about more details of the Air) seems to be the only one in this presentation who actually cares about what he worked on.

Only Apple person with any enthusiasm.

So Simcard in for 17 but out for the Air. Which way will the Pro's go....

 

[lugworm]

And the notch is still there.

 

[JPack]

LOL

"All day battery life."

That climax was really disappointing.

 

[Cod3rror]

Don't try to sell me on eSIM, Apple. eSIM is good, but only for travel SIMs.

 

[840quadra]

omg -- record yourself and the concert at the same time?

We've become so sad ...

So self obsessed

Well we can now record both sides of a Karen encounter now.

Honestly I use Doubletake (Filmic Pro) as a Dashcam app on an older iPhone. It is handy in some situations.

 

[LionTeeth]

I'm gonna throw my 15 pro in the garbage. It's so thick compared to the air now it makes me wanna throw up 🤮

 

[crawfish963]

The air battery life is so bad they had to software nerf it to make it through the day. But boy did they spin it.

But wait! There is an option battery (not included) that completely negates the whole thin concept of the phone. What a joke!

 

[F27]

Dead against eSIM especially for travellers, many places on earth don't do anything other than physical SIM's. Apple says its easier? What is easier than buying a SIM and popping it into the phone?!

 

[klasma]

Wow so many haters here, why are you even watching?

Gotta fill that bingo card.

 

[tonie walker]

define all day?

 

[Joseph C]

Yayyyyy MagSafe battery is back!

 

[ssl0408]

Case is ugly

 

[macrumors3000]

ext battery LOL

 

[H. Flower]

"watch even more Apple TV with this battery life"

 

[DocNo]

These presentations just feel so empty and, arrogant...like, they just don't care and assume you WILL go buy an Apple product.

The only thing more boring than their presentation is your criticism. It's the 17th year of the same base technology. What exactly do you expect them to be able to do? I see a lot of complaining - how about some suggestions?

Oh wait, it turns out it's actually a lot hard to create something than crap on it

 

[macduke]

"All day battery life" is a very non-specific and Apple thing to say.

 

[turbineseaplane]

All new accessories!

Tim loves this stuff..

These are the truly high margin con jobs

 

[CloudChief]

With a battery so bad, we designed an external one that will make it thicker than iPhone Pro

 

[applepie2100]

That was a very clever way of saying we've really struggled to give it decent battery life so we're going to bluff our way through and pretend it's still decent.

 

[MayaUser]

mage safe battery...mark was right, kuo just copy pasted

 

[trekkie604]

drop protection case with a back less than 1mm thin plastic... lol k
