I have been hitting the mute button several times a day since Friday. Does that make me dumb? Their focus group must have been 100% potential customers who have never owned an TV. Since they were adding buttons anyway, why not just replace the Siri button with the mute? 

What a bad UI decision. 

I couldn’t agree more. The mute and play/pause should be switched. 

I used it for a party I had for 50 people both non iPhone and Android contacts I have. It was a mixed bag. Some iPhone users got it and accepted or declined right away and others were confused. I guess on their end even though I had the location in it at first glance it just said Downtown xCity. Weird. I don't know why they just didn't further develop out the Calendar app which I use for events all the time, for a small amount of people.  I'd love to see the Calendar app be able to send invites to just a phone number and not have their email address. I also always have to ask for what email they use with Apple so they actually get the notification pushed to their phone. I wish you could just type in a contact and either text or email it and it gives a nice pop up. Just a thought.

In the screenshot, the time "12:15pm" is on the right hand side. Interesting.. Is it because the top middle of the screen will be camera and sensors? Is "Essential phone" from Andy Rubin designed the same way?

I would like if they would put the temperature on the top somewhere or even have the Weather icon "live" and show it there, that would be cool I think.

Why they got rid of an icon for events is beyond me. 

I wonder what those 3 dots are on the back of the Plus model in the picture?

As much as I love Apple I remember as soon as iBooks came out all Kindle books that were $9.99 jumped to $12.99 plus. In favor of this ruling. 

So you are in favor of a company like Amazon selling books below cost to stamp out competition?

Try to look beyond the $3 you save per book and look at the bigger picture.  Look at how many jobs and companies were destroyed because Amazon sells items below cost.

If I remember correctly wasn't it Apple demanding the publishers to tell Amazon they must set the price at $12.99 because Apple threatened if they did not then their books wouldn't be available on the iBook store. I could be wrong but that's what I took away from it awhile ago.
