I'm looking to get my parents a pair of iPad Pro 9.7, so the sooner they release these the sooner the price drops for em!
 
Terrific news for the SE.
It's still the best iPhone Apple have ever made, and I remember some on here were hoping for a 128gb model.

Looking forward to seeing what they do with the iPads too.. it's been a while since an iPad event, and a small scattering of rumours on here.. but we know they need to do sonething cool to push sales again..

I was disappointed when buying my daughters last iPhone that the SE had so little memory. A great phone but limited with a small amount of expensive ram.

But... Apple will just like always GOUGE an exorbitant amount of cash for memory that is cheaply available elsewhere.

The SE had the same amount of ram as the iPhone 7. Why would you expect more?
 
Seriously you are going to announce a new iPad and won't ship until 60 days later.

I don't quite understand how Apple lost its supply chain mojo.
 
Really not the worst idea to add colors in March mid iPhone cycle versus at launch. Probably would be a nice shot in the arm for iPhone sales as new models loom.
Yeah, but what about the rumored jet white?
Or are they going to keep that one for the 7s?
And a new ipad mini, my girlfriend is going to love that!
 
I have a VERY hard time believing they'll add a third SE config.
MUCH more likely: same two prices, but added value of 32 or 128, instead of 16 or 64.... that could give a sales boost to that line until it's updated next year.

Apl may realise its finally time to drop the abusive pricing of ASP almost $700, offer one extremely high end and offer a lower price tier to try to attract more refreshers mainly.... the SE could become for the masses, the 8 for those who have the resources or need to have the best apl product. They buy the SE then aspire to the 8s next cycle as their friends show off new glass phone.
 
I can't wait. Ready to update my Ipad 3. Gonna add a keyboard and Apple pencil to the 12" Ipad and see if I can create an Apple Surface knock off. :)
 
Agree!

Our household is in need of a new iMac to replace our current one.

Such a long wait.
I hope there will be new macs at wwdc then.
It is about time. Spec bumped macbook pro and a new imac, and perhaps a macpro with the same design, but new specs.
 
We all know if Apple updates the entire mac line, then the mac will give apple the most profit after the iphone ! The ipad,Apple should realise that is a 3d profit category

Yes, don't fall victim to the belief that more RAM is better. It's about balance. The iPhone SE's 2GB RAM is likely an ideal amount to match the overall system specs, and how iOS optimizes memory usage. Of course, it's up to developers to be responsible with RAM usage in their own apps, as well. Throwing more RAM at a poorly-designed application is not the right solution. Don't be thinking that Android phones with 4GB of RAM are better than an iPhone with 2GB. It's about how that RAM is utilized that really matters, and it's been proven that iOS is far more efficient.

I've been touting an SE for several months, and it is an awesome little device! Zero performance issues. Handles everything I've thrown its way. Of course, I'm well aware that applications will continue gaining new features, and eventually things might hit the ceiling like they did with my former iPhone 4s, where sluggishness becomes an issue. But I don't see that happening for at least 2 more years (in my usage case).
 
4 different iPad screen sizes? Completely unnecessary. Why is there a market for a tablet device that is 0.8in bigger? Go one step further and create a tablet out of stretchy material so that it can be resized accordingly.
