Your next iPhone could be the iPad mini - iPhone 15 vs iPad mini showdown
Yes iPad Mini with Apple Watch cellular would work for me. Having a phone on my wrist when I’m out would be great… and bring out the iPad mini if I want a screen, sharing the watch’s data??
none of which is currently possible.(Even my current iPhone + watch combo would be better if the watch did the cellular work, instead of the phone).

Apple reveals first states to use Apple Wallet for ID, driver's licence
I find a digital drivers license excellent. On most days I don’t carry a wallet at all. Just pay from phone and watch, and drivers license on phone.ravnorodom said:It would be a good backup in case I left my wallet at home. It happens.Not needing a wallet is excellent.I wonder if they’ll switch to apple’s implementation now.It did get me in trouble a few times. I have had to withdraw cash for a couple of shops (luckily a cardless-cash atm was nearby). And I went to a hospital and the parking wouldn’t accept tap-to-pay, so I had to write an iou and come back the next day with cash. Also some cards in your wallet have no alternative yet.

Compared: iPhone 12 mini versus iPhone 11 versus iPhone SE
Nice comparison.Note: the table showing the rear cameras is backwards for iPhone 11 and 12mini.

Apple wants your iPhone to replace your passport and driver's license
We have this for drivers license in NSW Australia currently.

It's great having the License on the phone, and since 99.9% of shops accept tap-and-go (Apple Pay) I now leave home without my wallet half the time, and it's reducing.Knowing I can call it up (& other licenses) is useful. I pay for almost everything with my Apple Watch, but there is still one great Sushi shop near work that doesn't take cards. -

Is the Apple API ready to go? I thought it was getting released sometime this month.
