Live Coverage of Apple's WWDC 2017 Keynote: iOS 11, macOS 10.13, Notebooks, iPad Pros, and More

[nviz22]

We are getting it with iPad OS, where it means more.

Well, iOS on iPhone needs iPad features like split screen multitasking. iPhone Plus models don't maximize real estate.

 

[jdillings]

Damn, now an IOS 11 video. Come on Tim, you're killing us, making us wait for the final announcement.

 

[wovel]

Stop it. This crap about the suggesting if "you're bitching about the price of the iMac Pro, it's not for you", is BS. I've been using a Mac Pro since 2009. A pro machine should have at least TWO internal storage bays, er, sockets that are upgradeable by the user. Not ALL pro users need Xeon gear, yet we want more than a 4 core processor found in the 'consumer iMac'.

Holy crap, look at across the aisle at the pro PC/Windows users who are building their own custom made machines for less than 50% of this offering. ...and with Intel's new i9 chips being released at the end of this month, for pro users no less, or even with Ryzen chips, the machines are silly powerful - and not just for 'gaming'. ...did I mention you can build a machine that will run circles around these for less than half -$2,500) the price of the base iMac Pro?

Pro User does NOT = someone who can 'afford' a $7,000 machine. LOL

The picture looked like the ram was changeable. We don't know about storage yet.

 

[JamieLannister]

Wait, can I use external storage using files? Can I attach USB thumb drive to the usb 3 dongle and the iPad Files app will read and write to USB drive? If not, this is still crippled OS!

 

[jamesrick80]

No one goes around with their iPad without a case...keep it real APPLE

 

[Rogifan]

Still disappointing there's no way to attach the pencil to the iPad. Say what you want about Samsung, but I like being able to put it inside the device and easily keep them together.. Maybe a new, thinner pencil alternative for that, or buy the full, thicker one that doesn't attach if you need it?

There's a new iPad sleeve accessory that has a place to store the pencil.

 

[BeefCake 15]

What's the compatibility going to be like? How old are the supported iPads

 

[happygodavid]

Toby Patterson was a good presenter. He'll be back.

 

[gigapocket1]

I will say that Apple is marketing geniuses

 

[stoopkidblues]

So iOS 11 is still trying to refine iOS 9.....so iOS 12 is the "big update"???

*rolls eyes*

 

[yanki01]

no IVEE!???!!! no ALUMINUM!!!!??!

 

[Olz]

Surely the 6th will be the Siri speaker?

 

[mclld]

Very nice about file management in ios on ipad, that alone makes the ipad a more viable computer replacement for a lot of people

 

[Saturnine]

It's a pity that some of those features, like Files and a better dock, aren't apparently being brought to the iPhone.

 

[fel10]

Cool commercial too.

 

[HiRez]

Does anyone else think Tim sounds a little rough today? Possibly sick? Not that he's got an illness, just a cold or something.

He's suffering from chronic vacant personality disorder and has been for some time.

 

[scoobs69]

Don't forget to add on your 5k screen!

I don't need a 5K screen. I can get a perfectly good NEC MultiSync for photo editing. ...in fact, I'm using one right now.

 

[Beelzbub]

Well yeah.. trouble is Microsoft have them as they have a 2 in one device. Apple sells separate devices.

More like a 3 in 1. My Surface Pro is the i7 version with 16 GB of ram. Gets used as a tablet, laptop, and a desktop as I have a docking station with duel 21 inch monitors.

 

[KPOM]

Anyone that's been on these forums knew the iMacs were expected as well as the iMac pro. Is this your first day here?

These iMacs have had the same (front) chassis since what, 2009?

MacRumors had just said updated MacBooks. Apple announced a "pro" device was coming in 2018 but didn't elaborate.

 

[itsmilo]

wonder how much of this will be coming to my iPad Air 2

 

[Altis]

MAYBE....just MAYBE the Plus / Pro iPhones in Sept will have drag drop ability, larger dock option in landscape mode.
Just speculation. But it would be nice on an iOS11 Phone with UI that seems pretty bad at first glance.

Now the trouble might be two very different iOS experiences...

 

[yaxomoxay]

I never installed an iOS beta... I wonder if it's the case this time on my iPad Pro as the functionalities are pretty cool. Can one go back to the previous version ?

"One Last Thing" Music.

Here, have the new Justin Bieber album!

Have a great day!

 

[TitanicManDC]

Music?

 

[1Zach1]

Now Siri can not understand you, in freestanding form!
