  • Apple Watch Series 10 to be thinner and have larger screen size

    twolf2919 said:
    What is the current status of the blood oxygen sensor in Apple Watches?  I have an Apple Watch Ultra, which still has that sensor, but from what I understand, Apple lost a legal battle with another company claiming Apple stole their IP and was forbidden to sell that feature in the US..  If true, from a sensor perspective, all current Apple watches are inferior to prior generations.

    Personally, the only thing that would move me to a new Apple Watch is additional sensors.  Obviously, since I'm wearing an Ultra, I don't care much about thickness or size.  And I don't really use any third-party apps except iPhone apps that have Apple Watch extensions (e.g. Alltrails).  But I do care a whole bunch about more statistics about my body.  The long rumored blood pressure and glucose sensors would have me running to the nearest Apple store and wait in line.
    I would up grade if they resolve the blood oxygen fiasco.

  • iOS 18 dramatically accelerates iPhone 15 Pro Max neural processing

    For the 15 pro max only, what about 15 pro? I keep reading that Apple Intelligence will only be effective on an iPhone 15 Pro or new 16 Pro models.

    Impressive level of integration making the Apple ecosystem even more sticky. There is a before and after today.  A lot of hardware currently and recently sold by Apple are now in the "pre-AI" dumb class. Amazing upgrades to hardware and software ahead.
     Can’t wait to see what third-party app developers come up with to take advantage of Apple intelligence.

    Am I the only one who kind hates this new functionality? I really...don't love the art styles, and it feels like it's just going to create a lot of extra junk in my messages if people use it. I know, it's a bit of a cynical take, just wondering what peoples' response has been to the new feature.
    I felt the same way about memojis in animojis.The tweens and teens will love it. They will be Apple customers for life. This is good for investors.
