I just want a SE3 w/ 1TB storage and 8GB ram... (and keep my Home Button)

Sigh
 
I’m not upgrading my Apple Watch until Apple activates the blood oxygen sensor again. I’ll continue to use my Apple Watch Ultra1 for the time being. I have AppleCare+ so I’ll get a replacement once the battery reaches 79%. As for the 16PM, I’m not upgrading unless Apple releases a Rose Gold variant.
The new vitals app equally displays O2 next to the other measurements. I imagine this new hardware will not violate the patent and the feature will return.

Will it display the O2 next to the other measurements, if the sensor is turned off? I am really looking forward to trying out WatchOS 11 next month and the vitals app.

Hmm, is it worth upgrading JUST for Apple Intelligence though. That’s the main thing. Not saying the new CPU won’t be whizzy and the like. Maybe hold off another year or so.
Apple upgrade program, why not! (For anyone apart of it at least)
 
Which means the RC for iOS 18 will be out that day or that week.

Those using the iOS 18 (NOT 18.1) beta think it'll be ready for RC in a couple weeks?
 
What is holding up the SPO2 patent issue? Can't they settle? Find a workaround. This is nuts. They can develop Apple intelligence, etc, etc, and not their own SPO2 algorithm.

I am typing this from my iPhone 13 Pro. Can’t wait to have everything on USB-C. The only 2 devices with a lightning port that I use are this iPhone and the AirPods Pro 2. Everything else is migrated to USB-C.
Why didn’t you get the USB C AirPod case?
 
iPhone upgrades after 2 years aren’t worth it anymore. They don’t even use new designs after a couple of years, so I don’t understand why people are getting excited.

I bought my 1Tb iPhone 14 Pro with AC+T&L for around £1800. No way is it worth selling/handing down and upgrading. I’m gonna get a new battery.

I’ve had my AWS6 SS since release and have no desire to upgrade that either. It does what I need it to and lasts until the next morning when I want to charge it after waking up anyway. I’ll only sell/hand down this if some breakthrough health feature is announced for the next AW, which I doubt will be the case.

I might look into buying a new battery for this too and upgrade when I get a new phone in a couple of years or when it can no longer receive software updates.

Man, we're never seeing the AirPods Max 2, are we? lol. Would be nice to see it at this event, but I suppose it won't happen here.

Things I'd like to see with AirPods Max 2:

- Power button
- Hardware upgrades
- USB-C
- An actual case (otherwise, I'll just buy a third party one)

Might be a tough sell for me this year. I update yearly but tbh, I am still quite pleased with my 15 Pro Max and Ultra 2 Watch this time. 🤷‍♂️ We shall see….

If the keynote falls on the 10th, I’ll be off this day, and I can watch it in peace while the kids are at school. I don’t have to be rushed to watch it.

I bought them in September 2022 when they were announced at the iPhone 14 series launch. Back then they had only the lightning case. A revision came out last year in September. Since I decided to skip the iPhone 15 Pro I didn’t see the need for a USB-C charging case. This year I either buy the AirPods Pro with the USB-C case or the new AirPods Max 2. I will decide after I watch Apple’s event in September. Until then I can patiently wait. Less than 4 weeks to go. Time will fly by very fast.
 
I will watch it, at least in background, and see what they have been cooking.
But this is not an upgrade year at all for me. I have all Apple stuff I need.

No money from me this year, unless they release something exiting and new 😀
 
I am surprised Apple did not rush to put out a new iPad mini as so many complained about the jelly scroll and Apple even acknowledged it. And yet here we are, no new iPad mini. If one does not come in September or October I’ll abandon Apple forever. Yeah right!
 
Going from a 15PM to 16PM because new toys are fun and I want that capture button. Yearly upgrades with T-Mobile :) I’m going to have a hard time sleeping until the 10th… and the 13th… and the 20th… I’ll just catch up on rest after the UPS truck pulls away 😂 my tracking page refresh thumb is primed and ready to go!
 
I see no reason to upgrade my iPhone 14 pro max or my ultra. I'm more than happy to wait for next year which will be the equivalent of tomorrow because I swear the iPhone 15 event was like yesterday. I don't know what's going with time someone screwed up the universe.
 
Every year less and less excited about iPhone and watch releases. Basically the same as previous year. Huge notch, same Face ID, no Touch ID,
Apple should lower the price for this year devices and just say “15 v2”
 
S10 is s9, which is S8, which is s7, which is S6.zero valuable innovation since S5

You might get an Ultra 1 with disabled BO sensor. It’s an import ban
