  • New HomePod, 'AirPods 2,' death of 3D Touch all expected in 2019

    I like 3D Touch, but struggle sometimes not to activate it. If trying to follow a link or copy an image, I repeatedly touch it more and more gently to avoid invoking 3D. I haven't found a way to adjust sensitivity in Settings. When I struggle with an Apple product, I tend to accept blame, knowing there must be a simple solution I'm too obtuse to discover.

    Ready for my first Apple Watch.

    Hope it looks like render, includes improved battery and health/wellness capability. 👏
     My only complaint is that the data it produces is largely a black hole:  it goes into the Health app on the phone and gets displayed as tiny, worthless little graphs that look pretty but don't tell you much.
    There are apps that do a better job with your data. I use HeartWatch and Cardiogram.

    I am looking forward to the front facing camera, face recognition, and FaceTime communications. Probably not this year, but could be a year or two out.
    Well, a camera on my watch is not anywhere on my wish-list. YMMV, but that's what my phone is for.
    Oddly, this is the one feature that would lead me to consider upgrading my AW. I take snapshots mostly, not pictures. A point and shoot on my wrist would be useful. "Wish I had a picture of that" happens way faster than I can reach for my phone. Point and shoot blind is fine. 
    I can't see that happening. That would make people in public stop saying, "Ooo, an Apple Watch!" and start saying, "Ew, an Apple Watch."

    If they don’t add a SCSI port this time round then that is IT!  I SWEAR TO GOD I’m just about very nearly almost had enough of their lack of effort for pros. 
    Testify! I want Series 4 to be more like a Mattel Power Glove. Only with more power.

    I'll have had my Series 0 for two years in November. Very much looking forward to an upgrade, be it Series 4 if features compelling enough, or Series 3 to enjoy discounts. Series 0 is slow enough to be bothersome despite having nothing to compare it to, and the battery struggles to last much longer than a golf workout. (And, yes, to naysayers, golf is a workout despite using cart. I still walk 3-4 miles, deal with substantial elevation changes, and get geeked up enough for heart rate to be elevated albeit not to aerobic standards.)
