What to Expect at WWDC 2018: iOS 12, macOS 10.14, tvOS 12 and watchOS 5 But No Hardware

It would be nice for them to speed up MAC OS like when they released Mavericks which was a really nice performance jump compared to the previous versions. I could care less about emojis.
I expect Macrumors (and Bloomberg) to be wrong about hardware. Can't believe this site can't see through their own news. There will be some Mac internal refreshes. Supply is already depleted for some MacBook Pros.
That’s what happens when technology matures. Trying to get anyone excited about a desktop, for example, in 2018 is pretty tough. Apple tried this with the current Mac Pro (to “wow” people with something different) and look how that turned out. The same is true for pretty much all tech, especially hardware. The iPhone X was the most radical hardware change to the iPhone and while it garnered attention, it had none of the wow factor of the original iPhone. And let’s jot blame Apple and the supposed lack of innovation they have. Many of these products are simply at a point where they don’t require much refinement beyond minor upgrades.

The camera is abysmal and the storage could use more options though. I would buy one immediately if it weren’t for these trade offs.
Agree. Amid all the hardware rumors, I really don’t think we will see anything for WWDC this year. All the major pieces of hardware like the MacBook, iPhone, Apple Watch, are all slated for the fall and perhaps could have two separate key notes in the fall like Apple has in the past. But I think it will be very minor if anything at all with hardware during WWDC.
Sorry but this image bugs me, did someone from macrumors just throw this together?
Because the 12 would never be that big and/or that close to the border.
Here's a quick shop if you wanted to use it:

Interesting idea, but letting your customers decide your next move doesn’t make you customer focused.
One thing Apple used to be good at, was giving people features and functionality they didn’t realise they needed - until they had it.
You’d never get that kind of innovation from a customer driven list as customers are often short sighted.
Apple just needs to find that place again themselves, somehow. Then they’ll be back.
Honestly, I would be happy if all they announce is that the **** they already have actually works now. That would be the best update. "It really just works now."

As I mentioned before apple has abandoned its core user base in terms of computer hardware, glad I switched to windows enjoying top notch CPU AND GPU...
I agree, they've become the 'iPhone company'...they make too much money on these things, computers are not a priority for them any longer....I switched to windows have not regretted it, super fast

Apple has become a monopoly, they don't need to announce any new products because they know you will continue to buy from them whatever and whenever they decide to upgrade...There is nothing a windows machine can't do at 1/4 of the price, I've switched and haven't regretted it

Thats what we really can expect from apple nowadays..
Should you really introduce bug fixes?

Don’t agree
The Apple I knew anticipated what customers would want even before they sensed that wish
This is what made the iPhone such a success , to name just one example
I guess now more than ever they need to make an exception and release hardware at a WWDC, especially on the Macbook side. The farce that is the touchbar MBP is costing them the most vocal and dedicated customers.
Developers don't learn at conferences but at home and at work. Trust me, I'm a developer.
Precisely this is the problem. Your average user is not someone who will stick with you for years and shell out thousands to early-adopt your new stuff and to upgrade every couple of years. The pro user is what made Apple what it is. That is before the introduction of the iPod and the iPhone.

Then you either have a very narrow definition of learning, or you’re going to the wrong conferences.
I have FINALLY cobbled together enough scratch to replace my mid-2009 iMac (which still updates to the current OS, thank you) but I’m not buying anything that’s already a year old. I’d like Monday hardware updates, and a new mini would be wonderful, but if not then I’ll continue to limp along.
No hardware
