WTF, my XS is not even a year old, about €1150 10 months ago, shiver and shake looking at the screenshot below...

€390...WHAT

A total joke Apple
 
Why do you think that? The iPhone 7 never got an S - we went straight to the X new design next year will follow same 3 year pattern.

That's because it was the 10th anniversary of the iPhone. Outside of that they've always stuck with the S model. And the 8 really was just a 7S with wireless charging.
 
well thats a bunch of cool stuff and all but nothing ground breaking. Soccer moms don't need 3 cameras on a phone. Even 2 is overkill to take pictures of their kids running around. At least the battery life has been improved thats the main thing imo. I was really hoping for something mac related though as I just don't get excited about new phones and watches anymore
 
Bercow is the single reason why I follow the House of Commons (I live in the US). Even last night's session was very intriguing and some of Bercow's remarks were outstanding (not talking about the politics).
The Apple event was just depressing.
While a lot of the HoC is nonsense, the way John speaks off the cuff, recognizes the many MP’s (name and constituency), makes polite but cutting put downs, and utilizes the language is impressive. He could hold his own with the old masters like Churchill etc.

No new colors for the XS? Lame. And only offering Aubergine of the folio cases, not the regular. Wow. That whole presentation today was a major let down for me
 
Man, I've been rockin' my 7 for years now. It might be time to upgrade, even though it sounds like next year's will be much more interesting. But, I can't keep a charge and it might just be too long in the tooth to try and push another year!
same here, you go with the 11 or the pro? 11 would be the obvious choice but I would like the smallest screen size possible and then it would be the 11 pro -.-
 
I’m impressed
New Apple Watch is incredible
These new iPhones are clearly the best Apple has made
The TV+ service offering of free when you buy a device, perfect for me
Apple Arcade bringing blockbuster games for one low monthly fee, awesome!
To be fair tho mate, you would be impressed no matter what pile of steaming horse dung they presented. Oh well.. .
Plus, do you really expect this year's iPhone not somehow to be the best one they have made? You talk like you are reading the autocue on stage....
 
The only surprise for me was the always on display on the new Apple Watch. I was not expecting that this year.


Apple TV+ free for a year with a new purchase is pretty dam cool.


I don’t think there has ever been such a minor iPhone release other than the iPhone 7 from the 6s. Even that introduced stereo speakers, water resistance and dual cameras.


I was really expecting them to announce the Apple Tags. I would have ordered a couple of those immediately.


No AirPod upgrades either?


Perhaps they are saving those for an event later this year?


What are your thoughts?

Loved everything i saw... and new services pricing are insanely good.. no brainer for me !

BUT

What about the iPad Pros...
Given that they introduced the new 10.2 in this event.. does that mean there is no more special event for iPad Pro? And no new iPAD Pro for this year..

Kind of confusing.. leaving those of us interested in limbo!
 
midnight green. also known as the colour that we got a sample in and thought it was black when we okayed it but turns out it was just a dark room making it look black and we were stuck with a bunch of ugly green phones to sell
