Apple denies iPhone X failed in onstage demo, says Face ID feature worked as intended
Well, as for the keynote presenters, I think Phil and Eddy should not return. They read from the TelePrompTer as if they’ve never seen the text before ... it’s been this way for a few Keynotes now. Phil in particular also looked bored when describing the iPhone 8 ... you could tell he just wanted to discuss the iPhone X. I’m not saying they are bad execs ... but neither convey enthusiasm. Clearly Craig, is the man for these events ... you can tell he lives and breathes Apple, and deeply understands what he’s talking about.
As for the Face ID fail ... that note on the screen was obvious at the time (I.e. PassCode required ..), I just assumed the phone had been rebooted (that’s when I usually see that message) ... in any case, people reporting it as a Fail are simply looking for something to criticise. The X is gorgeous! Will be pre-ordering as soon as my carrier lets me! -
Compared: Apple Watch Series 7 vs Apple Watch Series 6 vs Apple Watch SE

There, fixed it for you. Oh, and you forgot heavier.
But you’re both right, it’s both pretty uninspiring and about what we should reasonably expect for every 2 out of 3 years or so. I think we all agree, it’s mostly a matter of whether you’re a glass half empty or half full kinda person.

Apple Vision Pro execs talk about developer headset accessibility
Pretty sure you’ll be able to try it out at the Apple Store, that’s why it’s there. I don’t however think Apple is worried about selling that many to typical consumers. This first Gen is mostly for developers, and sure, a few “money is no object” enthusiasts. The 2nd gen will target broader consumers, once apps are in place, and see a healthy price cut — that will be very compelling. Won’t be much different from the trajectory of the iPhone (remember Jobs saying “we’ll be happy to sell 1 million in the first year” when it was introduced … LoL). The watch also rapidly dropped in price after the first generations.
People talk about how the high price will lead to some epic fail, but just need to trust the process. -
Father of modern VR says that Apple's headset is 'so good'
welshdog said:jbdragon said:This is still a RUMOR. Don't believe anything until Apple announces it. If Apple is going to try and sell it at $3K, it's going to be a failure. Yes, some people will pay for that, but most won't. If you don't have enough people buying it, it's going to fail. You need high enough numbers for developers to make games for it. Few games to no games, bye, bye!!! I think it'll have a hard time selling at $500. First gen product is another wait and see also for many. -
