Apple on Monday held a keynote event that saw the introduction of iOS 16, iPadOS 16, macOS 13 Ventura, watchOS 9, and the new M2 Apple silicon chip, which is soon-to-be available in the MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro.


It was a crazy event where Apple introduced feature after feature for almost two hours straight.

Only 4 new Watch faces...is this a joke?

I was hoping for some new cool picture editing features. Getting the "object" in a picture by long-touching it is cool.

I didn't notice any talk about AR/VR or using Lidar to scan objects.
 
No Mac Pro, sadly. I've got a guys that there's another level of chipset above the M class. But I guess we'll just have to wait.
 
Ridiculous and more than disappointing update for the Air.

No I/O, zero ports, not even an SD card (which is possible with this form factor); battery down from 20 h to 18 h; only 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB SSD in 2022?

Overall just overpriced and disappointing. On top: configuring the Air up to 16/512 GB will cost $1,599.00; the proper equipped 14'' Pro costs $1999 which is only $300 more. Why should I buy the Air? For the Magsafe2?

then don't buy it? unrealistic expectations will lead to disappointment. Obviously a MBP is more aligned with what you want and if the Pro is 'only' $300 more, why not get that one? people will complain about everything

It’s not at all unrealistic to expect better performance and more features at the same or lower price.

It’s $400 more actually

There were a couple of cool things, but overall, it was underwhelming. When a weather app is a featured highlight of iPad OS, you know it was more about quantity, not quality.

I see why they had to announce the MBA to spice things up, but that turned out to be an even bigger disappointment. It’s essentially a slight tech upgrade with a BIG price upgrade. Design-wise, it’s “safe”; a thinner MBP, yet the wedge-shaped M1 Air remains in the lineup along with the oddly positioned 13” MBP… yeah, that won’t confuse buyers one bit. /s
