Full Transcript of Apple's 'Time Flies' Event With Apple Watch and iPad Updates

[CmdrPuffin]

I wish they allowed you to choose your bundle. I have no interest in Apple News or Arcade but would like to try out Fitness.

Same, less than 0 interest in Apple news, arcade or TV but the fitness stuff is interesting. Wish I could do a bundle of just that and music.

Sony has been doing it for a while.

Doesn't make it a good idea, exactly as the Kindle's button at the bottom of the device.
App asks you for a password, you want to use touch id, and you risk to power off the device, especially if the sensor doesn't read your fingerprints very well.

 

[Rogifan]

Doesn't seem like it will directly, however if your SmartTV supports AirPlay, you can just do that from your iPhone.

They should make an app for smart TVs. Not sure how many of them support AirPlay.

Does anyone know if the new iPad is incredible? /s

 

[sakurarain]

So...the iPad Air is faster than the iPad Pro or...?

yes, unless apple limits the chip performance on Air. iPad pro with A14 will be on stage end of this year, i guess

 

[MistrSynistr]

Some of you weren't paying attention. Tim introduced the iPads at the beginning and said "ALL" iPad models getting an upgrade this year.

He included the pros.
the air.
the iPad.

 

[thadoggfather]

If Air comes in at $499 / 128GB, its a grand slam. Though 64GB is fine for me, I've *always* been fine with base tablet storage

Okay, if they can put TouchID into the button on the iPad Air, what do you thing the chances are they can put a similar power button - along with FaceID - into the iPhone 12? Would be hugely helpful in this age of masks.

Gotta save something for iPhone 13/14/15.

 

[cajun67]

Comparing iPad to "the best-selling laptop"... lol

Not comparing to the best performing laptop.

 

[yegon]

A14 on iPad before iPhone, that's notable as well.

True, but it’s hardly significant in the scheme of things for the vast majority of it’s customers - not us lot, we don’t count, we’re discussing a marketing event on a forum

Touch ID power button is huge in current mask world.

 

[applepie2100]

Just stick Big Sur on it and be done with it.

 

[Coconut Bean]

So iPad Air is what we can expect the next iPhone to look like, right?

might even drop faceid..

 

[Tonewheel]

Confirming there's no reason to upgrade this cycle. Welcome to meh.

Nah he meant they refreshed the pro in spring

I wish they allowed you to choose your bundle. I have no interest in Apple News or Arcade but would like to try out Fitness.

They knew what they were doing. The Fitness app alone is worth the package when compared to other fitness app services.

 

[Cscottrun]

I like this iPad Air update, but I still see no purpose of using an iPad over a MacBook.

 

[Psychicbob]

Did you see a new iMac in that last shot?

 

[4jasontv]

This new A14B sounds great... how heavy is the ipad air?

 

[QuarterSwede]

The A14 is a beast. I can't wait to see what their plugged in devices (Macs) can do! Unlimited POOOOOOWER!

 

[Bluetoot-]

iPad Air has 5nm process? My iPad Pro 2018 is sweating...

You know, Apple made a big deal how the 18 Pro beat even most laptops, but there’s nothing on the iPad that has ever tested this. Mostly because the software isn’t there.

 

[gregohb]

these comparisons with the previous iPad Air used what chip? Did they skip a few generations?

 

[Flow39]

Did you see a new iMac in that last shot?

I think it's just a Pro Display XDR.

 

[Oohara]

Come on with an iPad Mini with Pro style bezels

 

[AppleMad98004]

Was there a new iMac in that lab?

 

[Kobayagi]

Even Apple doesn't wanna pay for those wheels.
