Live Coverage of Apple's March 2015 'Spring Forward' Event

Which model of Apple watch, exactly, is she wearing?

 

[leenak]

SO YES, IT WILL LAST AN ENTIRE MARATHON.

There. Had to get that in.

I thought he said half marathon...

For serious typing I use Matias mechanical keyboards, but I have found the MBP keyboards to be the best I have ever used when it comes to laptops. Hopefully the retina Macbook keyboard is nice too.

Same. Always gone mechanical for real typing at the desktop, and love the MBP keyboard out of all laptop's I've owned/used. I hope the new keyboard is as good as the scissor design, as I can see them integrating them into the next generation MBP's.

Yet that is NO excuse for them not increasing the battery life and putting this 'force touch' trackpad into the 15" model the same as the 13" one.

that means you have to redesign the whole laptop, which you might as well wait for a new CPU

Half-marathon actually...

So pending the fitness level. That is roughly 2-3 hours (if you are in decent fitness)

 

[ThunderSkunk]

When will it stop?

At some point between now and zero.

 

[apolloa]

That watch looks out of place and ugly on a women wrist???

 

[Motawa]

posing with her fancy apple stuff next to starving africans. what a bitch xD

 

[MacGekko]

Apple had six months and this is what they present, God awful and boring, good luck selling this trinket.

 

[td2243]

Don't show me pictures of poor people in Africa and then ask me to spend money. Somethings doesn't feel right.

Clearly Apple have spent some of their cash on streaming servers - flawless HD stream for the first Apple event to date.

As I said earlier, it's not an iPhone event so it's just a lack of interest which is why the feed hasn't cut out this time.

 

[arggg14]

I can't keep thinking to myself.... The phone bouncing on her arm is tracking the same data as the watch...

 

[pickaxe]

Add 3 more of that port + a processor that can actually do something more than browsing and I'll buy this right now.

As of now this is a beautiful machine that improves on some things that are very important to me but sacrifices the very basics of what I expect a laptop to do. In other words, it's nearly useless.

 

[Neepman]

These focus-grouped presetation videos are like being stuck at a sales convention. I guess the disaster victim/motivational speaker is up next.

 

[zhenya]

Best keynote I've seen them do in quite some time. Pretty great MacBook.

But geesh.... 8gb ram...

None of the ultralight laptops from any manufacturer come with more than that. Even the much larger Dell xps13 or Lenovo x1 carbon start with 4gb and max out at 8gb.

Have you seen other sports watches? Sports watches generally aren't nice looking things.

Seriously? Probably also your first one, right? Else, cmon.....

 

[anthorumor]

MacBook needs 2 USB-C ports, not one.
I thought touch ID would come based on Phil Schiller's comment regarding their combined efforts in creating the new MacBook with their iPad in mind. That, or Apple's version of Surface. WWDC 2016, perhaps?

I think Apple ignored the fact that the Surface 3 even exists.

 

[RickInHouston]

So she's a serious half marathoner that brought her phone with her because she has an apple watch?

 

[KdParker]

I just got fatter watching that

 

[apolloa]

that means you have to redesign the whole laptop, which you might as well wait for a new CPU

And the excuse for the 13" MacBook Pro update is what then...................

 

[budselectjr]

by the time finished a marathon my watch would be dead. so this feature doesn't benefit me

Are you using apps for 5 hours at the same time as you run?

 

[MH01]

Well battery life is good for a 1/2 marathon.....

ya 1.3 is blah.

So Christy a super wealthy former super model has so much time on her hands.....

Screw this worthiness, where's Bono?
