    Can't imagine anything more boring that an Apple event that says "here's three new iphones like we always do. look at these new features and how great they are and that we will now talk about for 2 hours." Yuck. 
    Here’s where you’re confused - their continual improvement to their tools isn’t designed to entertain you like Saturday morning cartoons. These tools get better every year, and that’s a good thing. They aren’t going to introduce random BS just to make the event more interesting to you. 

    I have a hard time imagining power tool customers complaining on forums about Dewalt or Bosch gear.

    “OMG their cordless impact driver looks just like last year’s!”

    “Same old tools. Where is the innovation? Give us something new!”

    ...lol. And yet, bored techies do this very thing.
    And I'm down with that. "Here's the new iPhones, kiddos. They are new and better in the following ways: <insert a 10m description>" It doesn't need to drone on for 2 hours. Yes, I know people like certain cartoons, like the VR gaming stuff, and I don't object to those filling up the time until the next thing that is new, improved, or announced comes on. I just preferred the stooges clips with Curly, and not Shemp. Just don't run 2 hours of Shemp.

    After every Apple Event there'll be a dozen YouTubers who create a "What happened at the Apple Event in 5 minutes" video.  I suggest you watch one of those.

    that camera notch looks horrific, i can't believe that is staying this year. 

    i do like FaceID - but would I rather the note 10 camera cut out? yes. 
    You do understand that the camera/infrared array in the iPhone does a *lot* more (and a lot more securely) than the simple selfie camera in the Note 10, right?
