Nothing annoys/worries me more than rumors that the smaller PRO will be missing features!
This will be the make or break for me, between 5.4” mini or 6.1” pro. If the 6.1” pro doesn’t have ALLL the same features as the Pro Max, I ain’t buyin.

Jesus is that hideous. Why can't we just go back to a single camera? Imagine the camera and the size of a sensor that could fit in that camera bump? The bigger the sensor the better the image. As a professional photographer, I'm never giving up my A7R IV, but if you gave me a smartphone that had a massive single lens camera on the back, I'd be all in.
I wish Apple would stop putting features like LIDAR that maybe only a tiny fraction of the population might care about. They talk about it in their keynotes like its some game changing feature, when 99.9% of the population will never use it. Augmented Reality isn't a thing, and there is no evidence that its going to be a thing. I just don't get their fascination with it and all they do is use it to justify jacking up the price of their phones.
I think alot of us are big fan of Apple.That was rude.
Saying I can't wait for the new device is no different than saying I can't wait for Christmas, or the Superbowl, or to hit the gym. It's an expression of desire not a demand of time-turning. There are appropriate and inappropriate places to do things. It's ok to check yourself out at the gym but not so at the bank, just like it's ok to talk endlessly about the new iPhone at MacRumors but not at bodybuilder.com. You probably think you see it frequently here because this is the place to discuss those things.
LiDAR has been out on iPad Pros for 6 months already.Being able to measure objects in real life, with your phone, would absolutely be a game-changing feature to me. I am often in situations I wish I had a tape measure with me. A lidar sensor isn't really a "feature" it's a tool that then allows people to invent features for it. And there's no way to know whether people will make useful apps around it until you throw it out there and see what happens. AR does not have to be relegated to playing stupid virtual games on a coffee table. And just because something isn't used every day doesn't make it worthless. In the medical community, AR can have a profound impact and save lives. Imagine you are with someone that is having a heart attack, and you hold your phone up and it shows you all the defibrillators that are nearby. In medical training, it could help nurses see the location of veins on a human body. I know it seems stupid now, and maybe it will end up being a flop, but we won't know until it's out in the public and developers start getting creative with it.
Not coming unfortunately120 ghz, then Apple take my money already

Ah yes, the fictitious phobia for people who are tired of not getting enough attention for their "Lactose intolerance".Every year, Apple makes it harder for people with trypophobia to buy an iPhone.

Dunno about that phobia, but it should be noted that lactose intolerance affects 2/3rds of human adult population.Ah yes, the fictitious phobia for people who are tired of not getting enough attention for their "Lactose intolerance".
Does anyone besides real estate agents use the LiDAR scanner on their iPads Pro?
Custom tailored clothing too3D body scan that you can do yourself at home, then when you shop online you can filter all the clothes / accessories that fit you. You could see a 3D model of yourself with the clothes on directly on your iphone

No. LiDAR stands for Light Detection and Ranging. It’s used to accurately measure distances. It will allow AR to be extremely accurate in overlaying things on physical objects. It will also allow the Measure app to be much more accurate than it currently is. Right now if you move around too much it can get a little confused.I think you are confusing Lidar with X-Ray. I don’t know that Lidar does anything but map an area and be able to show how real world items will fill into that area. It can’t locate particular objects for you and maps the area around you for better accuracy. It’s a camera that enhances distance and measurement, it can’t see through the human body to locate veins so I don’t really understand what you are talking about here.

Am I the only one going from pro max to pro this 2020? My small fingers just can not any more
