Now that the hardware team is done doing watchbands and phone covers, can we get back to the Mac Pro?

Hyper Grape is not grapey enough. Steve Jobs would have insisted on more grape.
It's the Nike version though... Maybe Nike wanted less Grape and this was the compromise.

I think the Papaya is way too much Papaya for the name.

So that one needs a new name.
 
I guess when you wear a lifeless looking slab on your wrist you need a lot of options to make it look less like a lifeless slab.
 
I really like the AW band color updates; even if these aren’t quite my taste. It’s an easy way of giving your Apple Watch and your apparence a new look!

But I will probably buy the green one anyways :)
 
I know XR is "already" a phone color itself, but would be nice if they released a few color cases for it too. I like using the official Apple cases, just getting a little bored with clear one.
 
Unlike some here, I always enjoy the seasonal refresh. As to these, I'm slightly less sold than usual, not because I don't like the colors (I do), but because this seasonal color palette strikes me as slightly less cohesive than in some seasons. That's not a problem from a consumer perspective, though, since people can still pick their favorite and just go with that.

One thing that continues to surprise me is how Apple has ignored the iPhone Xr from a case perspective. I'd expect at least a few silicone or leather cases for that model and, if I were in the market for a new phone, the absence of Apple leather cases (my personal favorite) would impact my purchase decision.

I'm disappointed that this is not innovative! Also I'm not smart enough to realize that hardware engineers are not involved whatsoever in this product! But anyway, bleh!
 
Many people like to change bands to give the watch a bit of new life - Nobody said it would solve world hunger or was an important topic.

Exactly! Unless I'm just hanging around the house (where I wear my Nike Sport Band because it's comfortable and lets my wrist breathe), I change my band almost every time I go out. I have a whole mess of bands that I got from Amazon, Etsy, eBay etc. Some of them are sturdy; others are barely worth the $5 I paid for them. It's just fashion, and I love having options!

Yes... Development of computers with multiple 40 Gb/sec Thunderbolt 3 ports, 10gig ethernet, super fast SSD rates, fast memory up to 256 GBytes, BlueTooth 5.0, HDMI 2.0, 3D TrueDepth cameras, Apple Watch, HomePod, AR R&D, etc.
Not saying Apple doesn't innovate anymore, but dude half of the **** you just listed Apple has nothing to do with

Same here! I bought XR near launch day, and am confused why Apple is basically ignoring it. The clear case they made is excellent quality- a few colors and silicone/leather options would be great.


(And yes, I know there's 3rd party options. IMO they just don't feel like same quality as Apple "fit & finish")

Why is very Apple product realised under Tim Cook some insipid pastel colour?
Even black has become a pastel - "space grey."

Remember the good old days:

[doublepost=1553102417][/doublepost]What happens if you've got a GOLD Apple Watch? The modern buckles and Hermes bands all have SILVER attachments.

Also... please bring back the classic buckle and the original nylon bands.
 
When can I get an iPad cover thats not white, gray or boring-blue? Can we get 1 color that isn't boring?

Someone's sarcasm meter is broken.
 
I’ve always had the Apple leather case for all my iPhones since they released it with the 5S.

Now, I got an iPhone X last week and couldn’t find the leather case color I was looking for, so decided to try a Silicone case on sale.

Can I just say IT’S AWESOME! Feels so smooth!

Never thought I’d say so, but I actually prefer it over leather.
