As always, I am already disappointed in what hasn't yet been announced, Ternus must go, Apple stock drops 400%, worst event ever, Apple has lost its way etc etc etc

 

[Palliser]

I’m already getting ads on social media for cases for the not even yet released phones.

Back home from work, enjoying afternoon cup of coffee and waiting for the show.

Because the show must go on!

Pity no new MacBook Pros...

I'm only here for the new iPhone Mini.

I long ago joked that people who tormented those who liked the mini would buy the then rumored foldable iPhone, rarely unfold it, and do everything on the small screen.

I just want the stupid orange phone still available as last years model. I’m not ready to buy it yet though…. But Orange! Lol

The rest? Doing nothing for me this year. Still rocking the 12pro max I got when my daughter upgraded to the 14.

 

[Lioness~]

I'm only here for the new iPhone Mini.

Ha ha, I would love it - but I gave my 13 mini a new battery recently, so I wouldn't buy it now regargless how awesome it would be 😂

Actually nothing I need from 🍏 now - unless ???

Comments insulting the weight, overall appearance, and public speaking ability of Apple presenters in 3...2...1....

Light snacks on the site?

GM candidate immediately following the event, public release on Monday before launch day.

I'll even go so far as to say 27.0.1 ON launch day. Possibly new devices only. 27.0.2 for all device to follow 1-2 weeks later.

 

[Kylo83]

Even the os rls date?

[sjsharksfan12]

Please announce an Apple TV. I've learned to expect so little, but maybe something in this event will make me excited.
