    So it got USB-C and replaced the vibrate switch with an “action” button.

    Most iterative generation ever?

      Just wait for the replacable battery in the iPhone 16. They’ll sell it as an innovation.

      I suspect if their goal was maybe to make it unattractive to current iPhone owners so they don’t switch over to USB-C and maybe the next gen will truly be fully wireless? Would definitely be interesting.

      That’s what everybody has been saying every year since like 2017. New iPhones have always been very iterative apart from a few exceptions.

      More like thrown into my hand, buy 2nd hand phones folks and tell your friends to too. It’s more economical and ecological.

          What do you mean obsolete? People who buy new phone every year will buy new one regardless of is it iPhone or Android.

          iPhones actually last longer, especially flagship models. My iPhone 5s (2013) was with me for 7 years and still in use by my relatives. It got around 6 years of iOS updates. Even my low-end iPhone SE (2 gen) from 2020 runs perfectly and still gets latest iOS.

            Everyone knows iPhones last longer than regular Androids. I mean obsolete because Apple decides, conveniently, when they need to appear as obsolete, or when you start using an unsupported device, even if it’s perfectly useful and performant. To those people buying one phone each year I don’t know what to tell you, I don’t imagine they have a clue about what planet they live on.

    The biggest surprise to come out of the event was that the Watch didn’t already have UWB.

    New Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max? Are they taking a page out of Nintendo’s naming manual?

    I’m okay with a weak year. Maybe they’ll refine the software more instead of playing catch up to new hardware.

      I mean, I wouldn’t upgrade from my 12 Pro Max, but the battery life alone makes it superior to all previous iterations. I wonder when we will hit a wall on transistor size. It’s gotta be close! Cross talk is already an issue.
