That is Apple's target audience these days!
I’m seriously hoping they do power button Touch ID
They need to at the very least acknowledge that Face ID only is useless half the time
My worry is that if they wait until the iPhone 13 to do this then the vaccines will start to come out next year for AIDS and Touch ID won’t be as necessary
Of course I realize that the only limit here is manufacturing time. This can only happen if the power button Touch ID they made for the iPad was developed before a significant number of iPhone 12s were made, AND if this was all done before May (when most people realized AIDS was here to stay for a couple years)

Aww, man. I was proud of you. But now you flip-flopped.
Sorry, I’ll work on going back to being jaded... at least until Apple tells me about a bunch of neat camera features 📱📸🤪
agreed but very unlikely until iPhone 13. No rumors either
I wasn’t planning on buying anything so I’m not worried about the store being done. I’m more excited to see the keynote!
Definitely agreed. I was excited at the announcement, but now I may wait a bit and see what Microsoft has up their sleeve with the Surface Pro line.
I'm a web developer at a large organization with many micro services feeding into a few large public-facing applications. For various reasons, we have a rather fragile infrastructure. We still do CI/CD successfully.
In some cases you do buy somewhere else, especially accessories.
I did notice about two weeks ago that low end and very good value (decent discount for outside of US) refurb Air's were suddenly gone from the refurb listings, with only a couple of expensive high er end models. Maybe they sold, or maybe I dunno, maybe it was to reduce competition within the Apple store against brand new ASi Mac Air's or MacBook Pro or more!?
This is exactly what I think too. They want to lock you out of getting the older stuff until you see the newer and possibly go for that.
After the iPhone 12 was introduced, Apple's website seemed to allow you to buy the best iPhone 11's still.
That’s even funnier your
“Misfortunes” are u want to play Xbox games on your iPhone. Why don’t you buy a Microsoft phone, would make sense that’s who makes Xbox,
Why would apple care about people that want to play Xbox games. Try that surface book thing.
Its funny that you are unaware that Microsoft stopped making phones years ago.
Also Apple should care about the people who want to play Xbox games on their iPhone because they will lose business over this.
Before you hastily reply that they won’t... they will. Not millions of users, maybe just a few hundred. But it will / has happened.
