Apple Event Sept 2021: iPhone 13, Apple Watch Series 7, and More Announced

[anshuvorty]

Wait...what??!??!? I was sooooo ready to purchase those new AirPods....what happened??!?!??! Is it because of the chip shortage??!?!? Must be...right??!??

 

[Ansath]

So no new AirPods either

Maybe just a press release, or at the event later in the fall, with the macs.

 

[Wags]

why does Apple insist show us using the iPhone in a ridiculous scenario like a movie set.


People use iPhone videos for the following;
News documenting
Personal videos(family...friends...etc)
TikTok
Youtube
Onlyfans...etc

just show something practical like using an iPhone as your main camera for your Youtube channel. Thats actually something you might be able to use it for.

Ya. For the millions of film makers.

 

[Realityck]

Those new cameras are insane!

Apple is running into a how can they top these phones next year problem. It's getting to the point they are too perfect.

 

[Makkoo]

So iPads instead of AirPods today

Airpads coming next month.

 

[FreedomPenguin]

sorry I didnt see the iPhone 13 mini stream, changes, and price? is it 699, and is it 128gb and same form factor? did they comment on longer battery life? that was main complaint people from 12 mini

same chip or stronger chip?

 

[ElectricPotato]

I miss "...one more thing."

A happier era that no longer exists.

 

[thadoggfather]

No AirPods 3!

:O

They always show „Pro“ use cases for their Pro lineup. If you do just TikTok and YouTube you can stay with the regular lineup. They are lighter, too!

 

[Kobayagi]

No, but many amateurs that want to update their quality of their vlogs, videos, content in general, will. Yours comment is ignorant.

If they're into making those kinds of videos, isn't it much better to just buy an interchangeable lens camera?
Sony has many affordable APS-C options, which will do a much better job and have the versatility of adding lenses for different uses.

 

[SactoGuy18]

Hmmm I was expecting astrophotography mode, but no sign of it. 😕

That may be part of the new improved Night Mode features. We'll find out when the first reviewers get their hands on one.

 

[Nysprtsfn]

Did he say what time pre orders start? Are we still doing the 8am est?

 

[Neodym]

This is absolutely the worst Apple Event that I can think of. Could have just put these products on Apple.com with no event.

Actually it was a fantastic event! Autumn suddenly got far less expensive than expected ... ;-)

So disappointed right now. AirPods was the one thing I was guaranteed to buy.

 

[antiprotest]

I miss "...one more thing."

One more thing...CSAM for everyone!

 

[Flow39]

I thought it was a good event. The 13 Pro Max may not be a massive upgrade over the 11 Pro Max or newer, but I think the 120hz refresh rate is a nice touch as well as the battery life and camera improvements. I wasn't expecting anything life-changing, and I was pleasantly surprised by the announcements. Now I just have to convince the wife to let me upgrade

 

[applepie2100]

Unless I'm missing something the Pro and Pro Max are now identical save for screen size. I could see me going back down to the 13 Pro.

 

[Ansath]

They forgot to announce the new MacBook Pros!

Nope, as reported yesterday or so, separate Mac event, later in the fall. Most the time macs are in a separate event to the iPhones.

 

[CEmajr]

Awesome camera improvements, 1TB model. YESSS!!

 

[tonie walker]

Still no USB-C.

So you can enjoy adapters & waiting longer to copy off any video or photos you take onto or off these devices.

Waiting to copy 4K video off my 11 Pro Max is painful enough, now with the new formats on this unveiled device, I sure would get more downtime waiting to copy if I take the plunge. View attachment 1831043

..no usb-c because so many lightning cables lying around at apple contract manufacturers

 

[echeck]

Were we just punked? Was that really the product update announcements?

I'm confused.

 

[PhotodudeCA]

No AirPods 3, that is a HUGE disappointment.

 

[JustinRP37]

If this is innovation then their work from home policies aren’t working. This was garbage in, garbage out.

 

[fathergll]

Funny you say that, I'm not impressed with this year's updates EXCEPT for the fact I shoot tons of models for OF content, and being able to use the Pro for most video and photo might have me upgrade.

Ugh.

and really thats who Apple should be catering to instead of showing stupid things like an iPhone being used on a movie set. The iPhone is geared for content creators like Onlyfans, Youtube, TikTok or a news agency....thats what they should be showing it off in those scenarios.

 

[anshuvorty]

i hate that they PURPOSELY hold back updates they could implement that push the envelope, but they won't anymore... because they are worried about that ever present XX% growth sales since last year.

Actually release something that will make our jaw drop okay.

They made our jaw drop last Nov when they released those M1 Macs....I'm sure the same will happen next month when the M1X/M2 Macs are released...
