Another notched year.

How disappointing that you need to buy the Pro Max to get the best camera. I simply can't have a screen that large.

But, really, you get better aperture in the Pro- the extra .5 of zoom is not a big deal on the Max..

 

[jjack50]

They didn't mention it. Looks like the smart connector on an iPad Pro. Guessing something wasn't ready.

Another post described it as the mmWave antenna cutout. It's not present on the non-US iPhone 12s.

 

[jjack50]

makes no sense to not include a charging brick when they include a new cable that if you have an iphone won't plug into your existing charging bricks

I never use the charger that comes with the phone anyway. If I need another for another location I go buy one. I get that that may bother some other people though.

 

[unQuestionable]

Anyone know if the DJI Osmo Mobile 4 is MagSafe standard; kind of coincidence it came out with a very similar connection Apple is using.

Will there be a Mac event this year?

 

[Donnation]

For me, its a sad day for the iPhone when the only reason I’m tempted to switch is because of the cool charger and accessories. NOTHING about the 12 is remotely appealing to me.

some time in nov I think

I 100% agree. Really disappointed. When the phone won't fit in my pocket I just can't see buying it, but I now do almost all my photography on my iPhone (if in Central Virginia visit In Vino Veritas wine shop for my photo show this month). Really bummed out. Will still upgrade to the Pro.

I picked up my iPhone 11 Pro and said, nope this one is just fine.

 

[uneeko1ne]

Still waiting on the info on when ipad air will be released, an was hoping for Big Sur release date

 

[Manatee]

Now that we got that out of the way, they must be preparing for the headphone event. That’s what I’m waiting for!

 

[Metrosey]

Hope it won’t be too long until we find out if the Pros have 6GB of RAM

 

[jayducharme]

Did anyone else notice this disclaimer on the iPhone 12 pricing page? It might explain why the mini won't go on sale until November:

iPhone 12 mini has not been authorized as required by the rules of the Federal Communications Commission. iPhone 12 mini is not, and may not be, offered for sale or lease, or sold or leased, until authorization is obtained.

Hope someone will explain the optical zoom on 12 Pro Max. On one slide it said 2.5x, on Apple Store says 5. The math agrees with 2.5x (65mm telephoto divided by 13mm super-wide).

 

[scarrab666]

I suspect you mean "Megabit per second" in your commentary (unless its 8 times faster than I thought!)...

 

[Joniz]

Actually, at this point, it’s been a couple of month plus 7 minutes.

What’s next?

why dont you share what else they could have done to the phone? lucky you don't have to buy it lol so I'm not sure why you are sad.

Touch ID. Smaller Notch (or no notch). Better Battery Life. Promotion. USB-C. Is that enough for you?

 

[Veinticinco]

No Touch ID in the power button was a missed opportunity, especially when the new iPad Air (still not accepting preorders ) has it.

Other than that disappointment, the 12 Pro will finally allow my X a happy retirement.

 

[Chloros]

Faster processor, better camera, and more storage for same price.

This is how you train your minions. As a stockholder....you get a scooby snack.

 

[SteelMacMac]

No plug
No ear buds
smaller packaging
cheaper shipping
less pieces to manufacturer = Apple saving money but not the consumer. Shame on them.

Greed knows no bounds. Their trickery is that they market it so you don't even question anything, impulse purchasing....

 

[SteelMacMac]

the new home pod mini will sell like hot cakes

This comment is so informative, thx...

12 Mini is same price as previous 11 price (but without charger or EarPods, is actually higher price)
12 is higher price than previous 11 price (and also without charger or EarPods, so even higher price)
12 Pro is lower price than previous 11 Pro price (even without charger or EarPods)
12 Pro Max is lower price than previous 11 Pro Max price (even without charger or EarPods)
2020 SE has come down in price (but without charger or EarPods, is actually similar price)
11 has come down in price. (even without charger or EarPods)
XR still for sale (not sure on price change?)
11 Pro/Max no longer for sale?

I presume they struggled to sell 11 Pro/Max models and have shifted prices accordingly.

The price of the 12 Mini is almost double the 2020 SE, and more than the gap between what was previously between the SE and the 11, so I would say the SE will continue to sell well.

This Apple event was good.

Depending of your definition of "good".
