Could be fall still, otherwise it would make more sense to refresh it in the spring with the 10". Rumors are also a 10.5" maybe to replace the 9.7" with then an additional smaller pro.

Didn't see it mentioned but iOS 10 GM is out. Download the beta profile here: https://jumpshare.com/v/cH0vzF6CKdtKERwyfrg1

Then go update your software and you'll see iOS 10. 5 min download. You can delete the profile afterwards. Final GM build is v10.0.1.

Anyone tried iOS10 GM yet? Any bugs or issues that we should wait for the official release?

It's the same as beta 7 and that was super stable for me.

Upgrading the GM as I type this.

[rage2]

Key difference this time around with early install of GM is that all my apps seems to work well. Looks like app devs have done their homework this time around and have already released iOS10 compatibility with their apps.

does apple give any deals if you were to buy a bunch of stuff at once? like say for instance, i was to buy 2 ipads, a watch, and a phone, is there any discounts? i could probably get the refurbs for a small discount on the ipads

[benyl]

Nope

[Hero_X]

Ok so I don't know if anyone cares but the iphone SE 64 gb dropped from 709$ to 629$.

Buddy of mine who used to work at Apple market mall once had Dion Phaneuf & Elisha Cuthbert walk in. Dion bought two macbooks and asked "if they could throw in a couple sleeves" for free since he was dropping a bunch of cash. Buddy said "sorry nope"

[killramos]

lol buying 2 macbooks doesn't even count as "dropping cash" at an apple store.

Apple has the highest retail store dollar cash flow per square foot of any store. You know who is their closest competitor? Tiffany. And apple is still double them. That's fucked.

tl: dr Apple doesn't need to put their products on discount.

Personally its not the worst thing, people don't hold off buying an ipod like they do other consumer electronics hoping for a discount in a couple weeks. The price is the price and thats that.

Check out footnote #2 at the bottom:

2.The high-gloss finish of the jet black iPhone 7 is achieved through a precision nine-step anodization and polishing process. Its surface is equally as hard as other anodized Apple products; however, its high shine may show fine micro-abrasions with use. If you are concerned about this, we suggest you use one of the many cases available to protect your iPhone.

It really helps resale value too, which is a plus for phone upgraders.

I stopped buying any other color than silver when they went to anodized aluminium. Go look at any black iphone and you can see the scratches through the anodized layer. Looks trashy. While the silver is still silver underneath so you dont see the scratches.

My favorite moment was from the verge

It's official. They took the headphone jack off. Please tweet your feelings using the hashtag #JackOff.

The courage but is still amusing though.

My lol moment was the whole iWork thing at the beginning. We've been using Google Apps for years now, and they made Keynote look like it's a fucking revolution in collaboration when all this time we have teams editing the same Google Slides simultaneously since it came out.

Disappointed to see no fast charging, unless I missed it. Phones are so boring these days, and that was one of the very few truly useful new features debuted over the last 2-3 years IMO.
