I guess this will be our Apple event thread. Anyone got any predictions? Seems like most stuff has leaked already. I am interested in the price point for that Pro watch. It looks super dope. Although I am sure if we wait a year that design will trickle down. I am due for an upgrade. Although not much my series 4 doesn't do that I need.
-
I am curious if this is the year they drop the iPhone numbering system and just call it iPhone.
-
Do you think having a number adds anything to the status of having the newest model, especially among younger people? Or do younger people not even think of their phones as having any status these days?
-
I was a bit surprised they didn't with the 13, since that number is bad luck in some cultures. I feel like they had skipped a number in the past that was considered bad luck in Asia or something.
-
They skipped 9
-
Was that ever explained?
-
-
People will just refer to it by the year it was released. I think it’s fine but it’s a slight branding change.
-
-
-
-
I think I'm gonna "upgrade" from my 12 Pro Max to something smaller. This thing is just too big.
-
The mini is great, I hope they keep making it.
-
My wife has the mini and it is tiny. It looks ridiculous next to the Max. I previously had the X and I think that was just about the perfect size. I'll probably go for whatever pro, non-max version they announce.
-
-
-
I need a new watch, my series 3 will no longer be supported.
-
Didn't take that long before they dropped the M-word.
-
Marklar?
-
-
-
I know it's corpo marketing, but damn those stories are way more moving than they should be.
-
Apple Watch: "Buy us or Die"
-
True, saved me three times already. Just last week my watched battery was super low, so I decided to put it on the charger and forgo my daily run. Good thing I did or I wouldn’t have sat on the couch to watch the first episodes of Rings of Power. Now I know what you are thinking, but let me assure you, had I waited till the kids got home to watch the show, I would murdered someone for being loud and annoying. So technically it saved two lives that day.
-
-
Apple Watch: "TMI is our specialty!"
Neat to be honest though. -
They left out one kind of car accident. Explosion.
-
No Pro watch so far. Hmmmm
-
WTF No Apple Watch SE?!
-
oh wait, there it is
-
Yup, there is my new watch.
-
-
-
-
Capcom
-
-
-
-
The ultra is very ugly.
-
-
I think it looks fantastic. I love the flat screen. The naming choice... dunno about that.
-
I was hoping for the boxy look that was speculated.
-
-
-
Ultra looks like Apple's attempt at incorporating the features pioneered by the various Suunto watches.
-
-
-
Apple Watch: "Diabetes detected. UTI detected. Pregnancy detected."
-
-
Designed for water sports 😏
-
I bet the ultra starts at $999
-
-
Scoble thinks they're gonna launch their own network today.
-
Network of what?
-
He's claiming it'll be a what sounds like a mobile network for iDevices that adds a bunch of new functionality.
https://twitter.com/Scobleizer/status/1567362356954677249?t=TZNS3A7PB3ApiFdwRvnw1g&s=19
-
Like ISP? What type of network?
-
-
But he's still one of favorite tech curmudgeons lol; I admire his enthusiasm, even if he misses the mark fairly often.
-
-
-
-
They have spent so much time on the Watch Ultra for what is essentially a niche product. It's just masturbation at this point.
-
My friends who are divers think it won't be as good as a dedicated dive computer which are purpose built. Ultra is too "jack of all trades".
-
-
It's basically gonna serve as a human black box recorder.
-
-
-
-
The AirPods presenter’s voice sounds like text to speech from 1998.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
All good, I am generally a pretty emotionless speaker so maybe I fall into this category but I haven't met anyone that stood out like this that I can remember. That said, I'll forget this was even a thing at all in a week or two so who knows. It just wasn't what I would expect from an Apple presentation so maybe it stood out more than it otherwise would have
-
-
-
-
Volume control. Now I want to upgrade.
-
Well, I’m buying a regular watch and the new AirPods.
-
“People love iPhone.” No “the” sounds cringeworthy.
-
People love Computer.
-
I love lamp.
-
-
-
Fuck, they didn’t get rid of the notch.
-
-
No more mini I guess?
-
-
This is the 14... 14 Pro will likely be the change if there is one.
-
lol they are doubling down on the notch!
-
-
LOL the pill rumors.......were all wrong.
-
It's reserved for the Pro model.
-
What pill?
-
That’s the pro version dear, do keep up.
-
oh right. forgot they segmented the presentations.
-
-
Just show the Pro version already! D:
-
-
-
-
-
-
i thought it might be cool to have like, a "permanent" carrier in the esim, with the ability to easily swap out the physical sim as secondary service
but yeah shit was such a hassle, it was like half provisioned and I couldn't use esim or sim and in the end vertizon couldn't get the esim to work at all. just using a sim
-
-
-
Okay, this satellite SOS thing is pretty dope.
-
I hope it can replace the Garmin models completely.
-
Seems like something that will get shuttered. How many people each year find themselves in this type of situation? Then divide that number by half for your android user split.
Is apple paying the staff of the relay center that may or may not even be needed.
Seems like a money pit with little to no return. Unless the tech gets advanced to create apples network somehow.
-
-
Satellite SOS is cool but boo to charging for it after 2 years
-
The first hit is free.
-
i mean if you're upgrading every year or on carrier contract, arent most carrier contracts 2 years too,
then its pretty much a free no?-
I don’t do that
-
-
-
Was hoping for a “metric fuckton” to slip in
-
-
yeah
-
-
I bought my wife an SE watch just for the fitness.
-
-
-
-
Echos of the macbook touch bar, lol
-
There we go, better notch.
-
-
The name is kind of... whatever, but the usage of the space is pretty neat.
-
-
-
-
I think the screen is already a bit wider than 16:9 so it can sit off to the side via pillarbox.
-
-
-
48MP dayum!
-
I had no idea some Android phones had 108.
-
-
Yeah apple seems to have chosen to go with lower res but better image enhancement. Probably the right choice to balance cost per device with profit.
-
-
-
-
“Dynamic Island” is garbage it should be “Force Hole”
-
Did this really need to be an hour and a half long?
-
iPhone 14 Pro can now capture images from the multiverse.
-
Did I miss an announcement for iOS 16 release? I assume it'll ship on the new devices, so Sept 16th?
-
When is iOS 16 coming out?
-
I didn’t see it in the video either but it releases 9/12
https://www.apple.com/ios/ios-16/
-
Will an always on OLED get burn in?
-
Ha, Severance teaser at the end.
-
-
-
-
Great, no Apple Watch SE price drop in Europe.
Fuckers. -
As a back again "photographer" I'm interested in the camera. Though my bias would mean my use of the camera will not change... I always see people claiming or thinking these can replace full frame cameras but I haven't been able to do that. I"ve been taking photos with my A7IV recently just because I wasn't really liking how pictures turned out with the IPhone 13 Pro camera or other peoples cameras and phones.
It's like night and day difference in terms of actual detail and actual resolution. But I will admit I'm a bit of a pixel peeper so again another bias on my part.
-
-
-
-
Oh that’s a bummer . I missed that information. So how the heck do I transfer my service when I get a new phone?
-
You can transfer an esim: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT210655
-
Hmmm, I don't have an option to convert to eSim. I wonder if my SIM is too old.
-
-
-
Yeah, iPhone updates were somewhat iterative.
Watch is their most innovative product these days.
-
-
-
-
Query: My friends are offering me to group up and get a Apple One Family plan and I just renewed Apple Arcade two weeks ago for $50. What happens to that sub and the balance that covers until next year? Apple just says the service gets canceled when switching to Apple One.
-
-
Awesome thanks!
-
-
-
i mean i’d rather have no notch and no pill.
but i guess this is a step in the right direction. LOVE that they are finally integrating the pill into the UX as they should have with the notch.
-
The Ultra watch is funny. Buncha folks who use their Series 7 for nothing but steps and notifications are gonna drop $800 on this thing that's been designed for mountain climbing and elite extreme sports.
It does look really nice though!-
dude I buy a new Hermes apple watch every year. those paying 800 have to get in line for looking ridiculous to my 1500 https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-watch/apple-watch-hermes/45mm-cellular-space-black-stainless-steel-bleu-de-france-h-diagonal-single-tour-onesize :)
-
This will match my Range Rover, that I take to the mall.
-
To be fair, the extra-rugged build will be super useful to the clumsy and careless among us, regardless of adventuring prowess.
Also, I think it looks a lot cooler than the regular Apple Watch. If only it was about 10-12% smaller - 49mm case is just too damn big. Something in the realm of 43-45 would be perfect. -
It has almost everything I want in a Garmin alternative for hiking and backpacking. The dual speakers are perfect for notifications when you venture off trail. The app I use tells you when that happens, but the speaker on my Series 6 watch is too quiet. The recessed sapphire face won’t take a beating as easily as my Series 6 either. The larger face will be great with the app I use for offline topo maps (WorkOutDoors).
The only things it’s missing are super duper long battery life, built in topo maps, and the body battery. But having Apple Pay and being in the apple ecosystem make it worth it for me. It was an instant buy for my use case.

Interesting - AppleCare+ now covers “unlimited repairs” instead of two per year or whatever
https://www.macrumors.com/2022/09/07/applecare-updated-to-cover-unlimited-repairs/
Appears to be retroactive to anyone who currently has AppleCare+ -
Lol just watched. Nothing really new, every year is now a "S" year iteration... boring.
-
WTF the A15 is in the 14? That is so lame.
-
The dynamic island is new and pretty cool.
-
-
It's only on the 14 Pro/Max because they redesigned all the stuff inside the notch for it.
-
-
Yea its an interesting take on the notch. I probably would never get the Pro though, so i'll never see it until they put it on the iphone 17
-
The telephoto lens is really nice to have. There's a reason they lock it away on the pricier phone.
-
-
Is it cooler than just having 3mm of bezel at the top and an un-obscured rectangular screen? Because i would pay extra for that.
-
-
The watches all got big boosts. The new notch thing is slick as snot. AirPods let you change volume by sliding which is a huge improvement.
-
Not sure what anyone's expecting at this point? All this stuff was already leaked so it shouldn't be surprising. We've pretty much stagnated on any groundbreaking phone tech for 5 years or so. Wearables hasn't had any massive leaps since the Apple Watch was introduced originally.
I don't know why this is a "lol" moment. It's just what people should be expecting at this point.-
yeah everyone is just sitting around waiting for AR/VR to finally breakthrough. Everything else is on the boring part of the S curves.
-
-
Excuse me maybe you missed the Dynamic Island
-
-
-
Honestly, if I wasn't going from 13 Pro to 14 Pro Max, I could easily wait a year. But I instantly regretted not getting the larger phone this last time and the trade in value is half the purchase price.
-
-
I feel very happy I got a 13 mini. Hopefully I can get a battery replacement in a few years and use it until no longer supported.
-
I find this stuff so interesting about cellular devices.
Model A2650*

holy fuck. I mean everyone like OMNOVA (total noob btw) focuses on power cord connectors, but that shit is vastly more important. I'm always curious how carriers will improve their throughput as more and more data goes over the airwaves.-
All I see is more Covid being created from all those 5G bands. Shame on you Tim Apple.

Yea they are slowly separating the regular from the pro more each year. This year it has the A15 (iPhone 13 chip) instead of the pro’s A16. That’s ridiculous imo.
-
-
-
-
-
-
Not of like... weed... man.
-
-
-
-
-
-
downgrade to a 13 Mini then.
-
-
I just went for a blue Apple Watch 7 from last year. Found it for not much more than this year’s SE.
