That's a good thing, folks! How you gonna operate an iPhone with that thing covering your eyes?

You wouldn't be operating the phone. The phone would be used by the goggles for processing power. But it looks like they can put all of the processing power they need right in the goggles themselves. When the Oculus Rift first came out, it had to be connected to a very powerful computer in order for it to work. Things have progressed a long way since then.

The iPhone 14 was also rumored to be thicker with a smaller camera bump, so I wouldn’t count on it.

I feel more excited about the rounded edges than the USB-C port. I don’t really care for the straight edge look.

I’m hoping the next gen Beats Fit Pro will match some of the new feature set of the latest AirPods Pro. In particular I’d love to see the news transparency mode on there. I went for the first gen ones over the AirPods because they stay in my ear better during runs and other physical activity.

That’s exactly what I was thinking. I’ll be very disappointed if it’s only adding new colors without the H2 chip.

Make sense.  It’ll be odd just to just have a single Pro model without different performance.

I don't think it would be odd at all. The only difference between the iPhone 14 Pro and the iPhone 14 Pro Max is the screen size and obviously the bigger battery due to the larger size. That's a good thing in my view. I feel like if you want a smaller phone then get the Pro and if you want a bigger phone then get the Pro Max. I hate being penalized just because I prefer a smaller phone.

What "penalty" are you suffering? I prefer a smaller phone, too. It has to fit sideways in my bicycling jersey pocket so it doesn't fall out. The 2020 SE works just fine, and there's nothing I feel like I'm missing with the smaller screen.

The penalty was with the 12 Pro. The Pro Max had a 47% larger camera sensor and had 2.5X zoom instead of 2X zoom. I felt like I was missing out because I wanted the smaller size. I would be fine with the SE size as long as it has the same specs, but it doesn’t. The main thing for me is that the phone can fit in my front pocket, which the Pro Max does not. I usually go with the Pro because it fits in my front pocket. I was worried about the 6 when it first came out but I waited for the user experience accounts and then confidently purchased the 6S knowing that it would be fine in my front pocket. I see a large number of people with their phone in the back pocket, but I don’t want to do that.
