Apple Event on March 4: Here's What to Expect

How about a demo of More Personal Siri? Been almost two years, project has been restarted twice, leadership has left the development, and we have yet to see one demo of the feature. Prove its existence, even if it is rough and not ready for users.

As long as we’re making wishes that are as likely to be fulfilled as winning the lottery…

5k 120Hz Studio Display v.2 with built-in FaceID usable by connected Macs

An all-new APM with new “H” chip, lighter weight, attractive styling, and a real carrying case

Return of Split View + Slide Over to iPadOS

Rechargeable Airtrags that utilize an aWatch charger

The logo rarely represents the actual product and is abstract. Look at historical Apple events. Did the WWDC 2023 logo have "glasses" anything to represent Vision Pro?

Below is the September 2019 event invite. Did Apple launch a translucent plastic iPhone 11?

I don't know, those two round glasses lenses are pretty distinct to include in there. Here are some other invite teasers that pointed to the product:

I hope Apple releases something interesting ASAP. Things have been pretty stagnant lately as their tunnel vision has been pointed towards getting AI working correctly for a while now.

Personally I"m starting to look at Windows/ Android products again as I get tired of waiting for all these rumoured products.

What products are you "starting to look at Windows/ Android products again as I get tired of waiting for all these rumoured products" ?

Personally I have the opposite view. IMO Apple should only release new products when they are solid. I do not want cutesy new products just for the sake of having cutesy new products. Instead IMO Apple needs to debug the OS, apps and AVP software [AVP hardware is excellent, held back by software].

As long as we are speculating, perhaps, just perhaps, the 26.4 beta 2 will be out then and it will include stuff for the announced products (e.g. AI related stuff with HomePod or the like)? And it wasn't included in yesterday's beta so it didn't spill the beans. Who knows though, but another few weeks will answer it. 🙂

An iPad Air M4 with a Promotion display (to match the iphone 17) would be great for the masses. My eye is on the entry level Macbook, hopefully Apple don't gimp it into oblivion, then i can finally replace my 2015 MBP.

With Apple, they either gimp a product in to oblivion or they charge a price way too high to be considered entry level…. So I wouldn’t get my hopes up.

My guess is some new home hub type product, with a demo version of more personalized Siri ready to be shown off in a controlled environment. I can’t see them doing an experience event for MacBooks honestly, has to be something more interactive and new……. Then again if it was something completely new, they would most likely be having an event for it….. I guess I have no idea lol.
 
If anyone thinks this will be the time for the release of the new Apple TV, they might be deluding themselves.
 
Possibly an A. I. Revamped Siri. Demonstrating its capabilities with different users
An A.I . Siri wouldn’t be as intuitive in 26.4 without Demos in different parts of the World

Linux is a great alternative. No money for the snake bill gates or greedy Tim Cook. I’m with you one hundred percent. Apple just keeps kicking the can down the road for less than interesting product releases that are just too far spread out anymore. They should just admit they’re out of fresh ideas and quit trying to stretch their product line to buy themselves more time to come up with the next great idea. Tech created this “faster and sooner” culture…everything now now now. And it’s coming back to bite them. They’ve given themselves less time to create new great products. They’ve done it to themselves and zero sympathy out of me.
 
Just release the new AppleTV, please. A fancier Siri is not going to make or break that. The Homepod stuff? Sure. Makes sense holding off. But if its just the same old appletv with teh same vbox and new gears.

Cue lots of angry people on here, come March 4, complaining that Apple didn't release what they want.

100% this. "no innovation" "I am going to Android" "Fire Tim Cook"

Many on this board, the people who complain about anything and everything Apple does, don't realize that Apple isn't creating products for fanatical fringe customer like them. Apple is creating simple, easy to use/learn products for the masses, who don't care about technical specks or some perceived "gate" that is made up every year (wonder what happened to all those cosmic orange phones turning pink 😉).
