Skeptical--looking at shadows, icebox, pedestrian, etc-- how rigorous a comparison. Not maligning her, but she possibly does have ulterior motivation to go viral. Of course she could just be excited by such a difference. (I've got an X and considering iphone 11 pro, so I hope she's right. But will wait for others to confirm)

From the range of often perceptive critiques, you'd think this was truly a prime time production. That's a compliment. Aarguably the Oscars is filled with just as much or more cliche and platitudes. What I like about Apple show and tell is the awkwardness and mix of "regular people," often fish out of water, but there to make the real stars-- the products and services and video promos-- steal the show. The watch video, the camera app, the app developer from China, were priceless. I could've done without all the "See" full-length trailer, but it burned into viewers skulls that Apple is going big into TV, aspiring to Game of Thrones big.

You'd think Apple was a cigarette-maker from much of the snarky reportage. No idea why. The hope for better rankings in The Supreme Search algorithm?

Okay, I may trade in my X this year instead of waiting for 5G. Amazingly X value has held up, after taking a plunge last year for being discontinued. Still going strong but that battery and camera on 11 Pro is seductive. Then you figure free TV $60 discount and 3% back another $30 and X tradein maybe $510 plus and.... wow, suddenly I'm being economical. Reading a DED has its costs ;-$

Reviewing yesterday's program, what would make an Android devotee finally switch? The fancy multicamera video app for iPhone 11 Pro...the applewatch health benefits (that video surprised me: it's not only older folks benefiting)... the all you can eat Arcade buffet offerrings for $5/month....so many enticements and entry points. iPad/Arcade combo may prove most popular
