... the colours reminds me the flag of the Czech republic... definitely

I'm really interested to see what the Steve Jobs Theater looks like. In fact I'm interested in everything except the iPhone ironically. I'm not yet sold on the new design and my 7 has been so good I just don't see a reason to upgrade.

I'm ready for a new Watch and Apple TV though. Plus all the software goodness And hopefully the HomePod gets some time as well...

 

[Shoju]

Taking bets.

What do you bet they have the iPhone 7S / 7S+ and the new phone is...

PHONE

While I'm sure they'll come up with something more original than "iPhone 8", I doubt that this new design will not be called "iPhone". It's just too big of a brand to change this now. Or ever. Imho.

 

[EdT]

Super excited! Time to upgrade from my 5s, hopefully.
Any body else thinks Apple has some surprises this year?

I think that they meant to have a number of surprises, but firmware leaks gave most of them hem away.

Shortly? I has usually been 1 -2 hours.

Were you expecting it to be immediately posted? Apple has to format it first. One hour isn't long of a waiting period considering from the time the Keynote starts and ends.

 

[BornAgainMac]

In August, I always feel like the iPhone isn't worth it. As soon as the keynote ends, I want to purchase the iPhone at 3:00am. Apple always gets me to buy all their stuff.

Being invited to Apple's place, I feel like that is code word for "sex".

Red, white, and blue. Tim Cook announces his candidacy for 2020.

Funny, however he seems way too liberal for the apparently surging GOP electorate, but pendulums do swing so I'm not dismissing anything.

Bring it on very excited, The event will be held at Steve Jobs theater. Steve would be very proud.

Proud of the place that he can only dreamed seeing it in real life. But what we heard in the rumor so far would be a big discussion for SJ. Knowing that their failed attempt to work on in-display TouchID leading to just a face recognition only. I hope the rumor is wrong and Apple will surprise us with this.

 

[Lepton]

So i wonder if the hands on area will be placed at the oval entering after the keynote will start?!

Or maybe the spaceship giant lobby, or in the ring near that giant fountain that needs to be turned on about now..

 

[now i see it]

I figured the logo colors out —

Made in America .. (not)

 

[EdT]

Quick, everyone tell me what the invite picture means!

It means they mean to win Wimbledon.

 

[PaulRustad007]

Thanks to this place, im bored of the iPhone 8 already. Heres hoping they slip in a few goodies for us Mac users too

Naw...apple does not care for the Mac anymore.....
[doublepost=1504202773][/doublepost]

Mac Mini will most assuredly be updated.

No, I am afraid that the mini will no longer be supported....it is gone...gone....sigh....gone....
[doublepost=1504202875][/doublepost]

I can die in peace when Apple announces the new MacMini. I really want to get one

I have a sinking feeling that the mini will no longer be made, just another piece of aluminum to be recycled when the processor dies....

 

[TheDreaded26]

Yes! Super excited!

Maybe the colours on the Logo are new handset colours,

Pink, Blue, Blush Gold (copper).. who knows!

Beat me to it!

I think that they meant to have a number of surprises, but firmware leaks gave most of them hem away.

It's kind of annoying how many hidden items people found though the firmware leaks. It would have been nice to receive a few surprises.

If you look carefully, it is the closeup of a finger next to the iPhone - basically a closeup angle of a hand holding a device. Looks like a very interesting finish, kind of like the sharp edge of an iMac. I would love an iPhone form factor that mirrors the comfort of the iPhone 3 (rounded back) but made with aluminum instead of plastic. It's also the only form factor that Apple has not recycled and updated.

The blue represents the blue part of the light spectrum that comes from TV's and screens. So iPhones and Apple TV's it is. Still hoping for a Mac Mini update.

Gadget festival!

Something to look forward to. The new campus is awesome (and weird, at present).

Very exciting

How’s your 5S doing these days? I’m on 6S but wondering if I could make it another two years. Is it bearable?

You mean performance, battery health?

iPhone 6s Plus (1y 11m old): 84% battery health (the battery has been glitchy from day 1), performance wise never breaks a sweat. Totally bearable (except for the battery glitches).

iPhone 5s (3y 9m old): 84% battery health. Performance a bit sluggish at times, but I only use it for audio streaming and as Apple TV Remote anyway. It was retired from phone duties 2 years ago. iOS 11 is the last version this one will ever see. 5s is next in line for dropped support.

iPhone 4 (6y 4m old): 78% battery health (weird). It's been sitting in a dock on a Sony clock radio for almost 4 years serving as a weather display, with the backlight always on. I'm kind of surprised that it hasn't disintegrated, or at least lost every trace of battery capacity...

That's not to say that developers or analysts have found everything there is to be known about the new iPhone with the HomePod code. Not to mention, we don't know the accuracy behind all of those leaks either.

The logo is clearly the silhouette of two phones, slightly overlapping.

 

[sully54]

What if this is just an invite for the press to see the new Steve jobs theatre?

 

[tridley68]

can't wait to upgrade from my 7plus .

 

[redheeler]

The logo is clearly the silhouette of two phones, slightly overlapping.

You're right, this would seem to hint at an announcement of both iPhone 7s and iPhone 8, the first time Apple announced two new iPhone variants since 2013 (iPhone 5s and 5c).

 

[expiredyogurt]

well looks like i better get ready to sell my kidney for the iphone 8 or start looking for a job and hope they will pay me in advance for it then

anyone know anyone hiring?
