iOS 16 Speculation Thread

[sorgo †]

Another head scratcher from this morning’s announcements: why give the new iPad a better keyboard than the Pro model (function keys, etc) ? The only thing I can think of is that there is another Magic Keyboard coming at some point in the not too distant future. But if so, seems to be a missed opportunity to not introduce it today.

Magic Keyboard with Touch Bar for M2 iPad Pro—Coming Spring 2023 for only $599 (or $649 for 12.9”)!

So several still saying RC. Wasn't the announcement from Apple that iPadOS 16.1 would be available today? And other speculation was that iOS and iPadOS would drop at same time? I expect the 16.1 release today not RC based on that.

they announced 10.24

I have a strong feeling our phone will start updating in 10-15 min...we'll see

Unfortunately people have been saying that for several years now and it never seems to happen. I get wanting to have 2 separate “systems”. But why load up the iPad Pro with all that processing power and then hobble the OS so that it really can’t take full advantage of it.

Because they want to sell Macbooks... I have to imagine if they did this it would put a serious dent in Mackbook air sales.

but you could sell a Pro that accepts Adobe CC for a higher price tag, more than the Air. just not everyone will like that set up. so its more choice.

But their model is supposed to be that the lower device pushes the higher one. If the iPad challenges the MBA, then the MBA needs to find a way to justify itself.
