  • New Apple Watch pops up in Bluetooth database

    Who needs a faster watch? Who really? Speak up and let me know what a faster watch will do to improve your timekeeping or anything else for that matter?
    I have a Series 7 and it is painfully slow to add funds to my transit card. I know it's on me but sometimes I will forget to add funds until I get to the train station and sometimes it's a matter of missing the train or not.

  • A17 specifications leaked ahead of iPhone 15 Pro release

    Those are pretty easily guessed specs based on what has been discussed and speculated. How come they don't know anything about the camera or anything else?

    I prefer this format. It’s clean and more information is actually packed in than before because of faster transitions and lack of hiccups that happen seemingly every live event. 
    Will we ever get an event as amazing as 2007's iPhone announcement by Steve Jobs in the new format? Probably not, but I doubt anything from Apple will ever compare to that in my lifetime anyway. The purely live format had issues over the years. From machines that failed to a Face ID lock out (IIRC), to the iPad demo 3 years after the iPhone which I felt was a very boring presentation which included a lot of non-working Adobe Flash images on the NYTimes.

    Precisely. Steve Jobs was a showman but that doesn't mean there were never hiccups. This new format tells a better narrative of the products they are selling to us.

  • iPhone 15 launch will keep prerecorded video format

    I, like others prefer the current format, with the demo areas setup after for media. It’s more concise, zero chance of seeing any failures of any kind and the production value is fun. I expect this to be part of the new Apple going forward.

    As we used to say in NYC back in the day, this and a token will get you on the subway…
    On the other hand we already know what the reaction here in these forums will be.

    Underwhelming

    DOA

    Overpriced

    Not ready for prime time

    Should never have been released

    I’m not buying one

    I’ll pass

    Stupid 

    Android already has this

    ...

    ...

    ...

    Tell me I’m wrong.
    And then by the next generation we will all be clamoring to have one and asking ourselves how could we live without said device when we finally get the third generation and keep on upgrading, year after year.
