Live Coverage of Apple's October 2018 iPad and Mac Event

[Dorje Sylas]

Getting a little worried. Does the new iPad Pro support HDR? It seems to be conspicuously missing from the presentation.

Apple has always skimped on the camera's in the iPad.

 

[RedCloud2017]

So... iPad Pro 11" 256 GB + Pencil = £1,038

Wow. That got out of hand quickly lol

LOVE LANA DEL REY. BEST PART OF THE PRESENTATION!!!

 

[Speechless]

LANA!!!

 

[Icaras]

I actually like Lana del Rey. Nice. A non cringy performance.

 

[DrJohnnyN]

Oh, look it's Lana Del Rey... lol

Unless you're giving this to a kid or grandma that only checks email twice a week, how is 128GB on a boot drive enough these days without being utterly reliant on external storage? Its a ridiculous cost cutting measure on a device that's not cheap.

So don't buy the base model if it doesn't meet your needs? Bump to 512GB internal, and use external for additional storage.

 

[ThisBougieLife]

Called it. Musical performance coming up.

You so did lol.

Man, "one more thing" is now synonymous with "musical performance". We should just stop pretending it could be otherwise anymore.

 

[L-Viz]

You see the specs? More powerful than your computer.

Yes it definitely is against my Late 2009 Macbook pro.



But still a toy.

 

[macdisciple]

Apple Store back up. Buy buy buy!

 

[oldmacs]

OMG NEW LANA SONGS THIS IS A DREAM!!

I'm not talking about the cameras. Of course those will have HDR (been a feature for 4+ years) I'm talking about the screens.

 

[HoosBruce]

Yes it definitely is against my Late 2009 Macbook pro.



But still a toy.

No, it's not.

 

[Tozovac]

NOBODY CARES about:
-Musical performances

Yup. What's next, a cooking segment?

 

[leman]

Uhm Apple, what about the iMac? Coffe Lake has been out for a year...

 

[mchoffa]

No new iMac again?? I was ready to buy today... *sigh*... my 2012 will have to chug on a little longer.

 

[laurieballard]

Assuming the UK pricing mirrors the US like the current ones, £799 is a lot of money for an iPad.

 

[cs02rm0]

What. The. ****.

 

[Doomtomb]

the ONLY thing I wanted from this event was an iMac refresh

 

[ThisBougieLife]

Yup. What's next, a cooking segment?

How to fry an egg on the 15" MBP

 

[grad]

The iPad Pro. Makes the MacBook Air update look pathetic , and show how much Apple neglects macs

Also, would anybody be surprised if Apple tells us that iPad/MacBook is the new Mac Pro and iOS 13 is the new MacOS ?

 

[AlumaMac]

You are underestimating the importance of a mouse to some people.

And a fully functioning operating system...

 

[mindquest]

Ohh already closing? I was hoping for new AirPods.

Totally hoping new Airpods were in the mix! Does that mean we won't see new ones till 2019?

 

[bad03xtreme]

Not a fan of her.

 

[Dorje Sylas]

$800 for an i3 in the base Mac Mini... I just threw up a little in my mouth. That's insulting. (just looked that Apple Store page now that its back up)

 

[4jasontv]

No they didn't. The Xbox One S. The base-line console.

The S isn't the base model. It's the mid tier that bought microsoft some time to release the X.
