Wearing and interacting with a ring seems much more intuitive than using controllers in a AR/VR environment. Maybe this will be an accessory that works with the forthcoming Apple glasses. 

I imagine the projectors needed to make this happen would need pixels on the microscopic level. That would be mind boggling if that were possible!

One thing that's missing from this review is a battery life comparison to Android phones with 120Hz refresh rates.

For example, comparing the Samsung Galaxy S21+ and iPhone 13 Pro Max which have the same screen size, the iPhone battery lasts 30% longer when playing back videos (18h53m vs. 25h)!

In this context, it's easy to see why Apple chose to delay the release of a 120Hz iPhone until "it was ready". Saying "finally", as most tech reviewers like to do, makes it sound like Apple was twiddling their thumbs while the competition leap frogged them in technology. In this case, it's plain to see that Apple wasn't willing to sacrifice all day battery life just to compete in a spec pissing contest.

This is why I love Apple.

Incredible! Considering that NFC payments were around long before Apple Pay entered the market

Not sure why there is this fascination w/the notch and trying to eliminate it. If no one had talked about it, it wouldn't be a thing.

Now if Apple wants to refine something...get rid of the stupid camera bump so my phone can lay flat w/o a case.

I whole-heartedly agree with you about the tech press's obsession with eliminating the notch. It's a tiny problem with no easy solution.

But I disagree with you about the camera bump. It not only makes more room for better camera components, but also makes the iPhone easier to pick up when lying down.
