I hope the MacBook Pro is today, looks like entry level iPad will be today. Might not be a series 5 watch, just new models with ceramic and titanium. Guess we will see.

Yea, the Apple Watch I could see them calling it Series 5, but nothing that pops out other than the new material choices.

I doubt the MacBook Pro.

All ready to buy one of these - thanks for the reminder. I knew there was a reason I was going to wait until next year.

It's the same battery life rating as the Series 4. In other words if you use the Apple Watch at a rate that allows you to charge once every 36 hours, then you're going to get the same life out of the new one. THey crank down the refresh rate of the display and dim the screen to reduce battery usage. It's like an e-ink OLED display.

I'm going to get the 11 to lower my monthly phone payment. Nothing to get excited about and the camera housing looks so stupid.

These were really boring improvements. I feel like they were just going through the motions this year.

Big meh from me. For those of you on the Upgrade Program, what are you going to do? I'm thinking I'm just going to stick with my XS until next year, but will that screw with the Upgrade Program?

Well they improved the XR in every way and lowered the price by $50. Not bad.

Want to wait on the 5G phone, but I don't think my 6s is going to last much longer.

Nice to see some more accessible pricing for the phones with a bigger range, $699 for the 11 is a great deal. Not sure how the Pro will sell, that will be interesting to see.

Also super competitive pricing for Apple Arcade at 4.99 for the Family Plan, I was kinda of intrigued but at that price it's tough to pass up. And I've been thinking about a new iPad soon anyway so I'll give AppleTV+ a shot for free for a year

Huge bump across the board on my 6S. It's still going strong, if it had a larger hard drive I could probably get another few years out of it. Otherwise there'd be no reason to upgrade. Sadly i can't even update the operating system software since there's not enough space for that, and cruising on last year's software can only go so far...

So it looks like an 11 Pro for me with the largest drive to try to get through 2025.

I only halfway paid attention to the presentation. I thought the 11 had 2x optical zoom, but looking on the website, it says 2x optical zoom out. So do they go about it backwards basically and have it zoomed all the way in to start instead of zoomed out to start like a normal camera? I mean, if I take a picture with my iPhone 6 and a 2x zoomed out on the 11, would it be the same image?

Holding on to my X for another year.

Things to look-out for in the 2020 iPhone.

-5G Connectivity: LTE slow or have connection issues? Yea everyone's on it. 5G should be nice for a few years. I remembered when I was at an Aggie Football game when the first LTE iPhone 5 came out. I was the only few in the Senior section that could send texts and surf Facebook.

-Under Screen TouchID: It's been rumored for years, but a lot of phones have it to where Apple can perfect that technology

-USB-C: One Charger to Rule them All! The MacBook Air, Pro, and iPad Pro got it. Now it's time for the iPhone. Lightning is slow in data transfer. Apple was holding on to lightning for the customers like they did with the 30 pin. Everyone hates the transition but it'll be the best as all of your electronics will be charged by one cable and brick. This idea will push phone companies to stop including chargers in the box in 5 years, saving the planet.

-3D Sensing Rear Camera: The Galaxy S10+ Note is the first to have it, but basically you can scan real world objects into 3D Renders.

-Notchless: Kind of like the Galaxy Note 10 hole punch

They're talking about the Ultra Wide Camera (2nd Camera). 2X wider so 2X zoom-out. There will be no Telephoto 2X Zoom-In camera on the iPhone 11.

Me too...oh wait, my 8 Mb Cricket download speeds probably won't let me take advantage of that.

That's pretty stupid. I would imagine more people have a need to zoom in than zoom out. I was listening to it while driving when they were on the Pro presentation and I thought they said 4x optical zoom, but that's not really true if that one is 2x zoom in and 2x zoom out, unless I heard them wrong.

Sorta, 4X optical zoom if your start from the Ultra Wide.

0.5x......new Ultra Wide Camera
1x.........Wide (Normal Camera)
2x.........Telephoto Camera

I'm on the Apple Upgrade plan but I am going to hold on to my XS Max for another year. Not worth trading in and extending another year of payments for such an incremental upgrade.
