Live Coverage of Apple's iPhone XS, iPhone XR, and Apple Watch Event

[thadoggfather]

Liquid Retina?

Super Retina?

This naming is getting silly

What’s the R for?

The blue looks sweet


WATTTTT 120hz.

WATTTTTTTTT


PRO MOTION?

ON THE NON FLAGSHIP?

WATTT


Edit- may just be 120hz ‘touch’ for sensitivity of touch. Dang

So what does the R stand for?

Liquid Retina.

 

[BigSky20]

Zzzzzzzzzzzz

The marketing and videos are amazing though!

 

[RickInHouston]

These events have run it's course. In a couple of years they are going to be relegated to the back suite with six reporters and a stenographer.

So what does the R stand for?

It's that sporty, cool letter. Ya know, the same one that VW uses.

 

[slcpunk]

So the home button is gone forever finally

 

[cmwade77]

You know what would allow us to keep our phones even longer? user replaceable batteries!

 

[Icaras]

Did I just hear 120hz display???

 

[arkitect]

She had more enthusiasm than Jeff though!

Oh definitely! She made the most of her material.
Props to her!

You know who this thing isn't going to make happy? People who like to be able to fit a regular iPhone in their pocket and use it one handed. They really need a 4.7" SE version of this that is about the same size as the current SE. Hopefully this Spring.

What is more annoying these keynote speakers or constant cheering.

"The new iPhone has a new purple color" Nails on the chalkboard fake cheering.

 

[silversin]

Not even a Full HD screen is just wow...

 

[scottish]

So what does the R stand for?

Reach?

 

[tkermit]

No 5S/SE sized model. Don't care.

Apparently Apple doesn't want my money.

 

[JPack]

Same TrueDepth system as Xs and Xs Max.

Just waiting for the price.

 

[arggg14]

I'd prefer haptic touch.

 

[Superhappytree]

326 PPI on a 6.1” phone is ridiculously pathetic in 2018.

 

[AngerDanger]

Didn't it already have Haptic Touch?

 

[apolloa]

Hahahahahaha no 3D Touch for that XR haha.. I hope it costs less then the iPhone 8 then.

 

[arkitect]

LOL

Liquid Retina

The marketing speak is off the top this time.

I wonder if we'll be back at some users getting seasick while using it?

 

[Rogifan]

So with no 3D Touch does it still support the same things 3D Touch does?

 

[nol2001]

Did they not give the Xr ProMotion 120hz because they don't want it to be better in any way than the Xs?

 

[redheeler]

Did I just hear 120hz display???

120 Hz "touch layer". Doesn't seem to be referring to the display refresh rate.

 

[Ries]

Pricing is going to hurt.

 

[ssl0408]

So is it 720p?

 

[thadoggfather]

I think XR will cannabalize XS/XS Max

ProMotion, color customization, lower price, A12 as well.

There, I said it.

EDIT; no promotion. Just 120hz touch i guess?
