    I don't know why a company as large as Apple won't fucking innovate and make some more significant changes as far as design is concerned. I guess they know the followers are going to keep buying no matter what so why spend the money on R&D if they don't need to. 6th fucking generation and it still looking the same as fucking day one.
    The thing with Apple Watch is there is only so much you can expect from it, it’s a tiny display on your wrist with an even tinier battery. Getting cheaper and on more peoples wrists is essentially the only play here.

    SE Asian countries are relying on blood O2 levels for early onset of COVID detection successfully. I wouldn't be surprised if this will be a marketing push by Apple.

    Someone on my team in India detected low O2 levels with no other symptoms. Tested positive, so in some cases, it works.
    maybe apple created Covid to sell more watches!!! haha. The development of the O2 sensor would have been long before Covid started.

    You think Apple developed their own sensor?

    no, no. packaging and miniaturization takes time. They are probably already working on Series 7 and 8. Series 6 was likely planned and started development before Covid appear. That's all I am saying.

    Looking at pricing, I’ll probably end up with Apple One family. I already pay for Apple Music family and 200GB storage so it’s basically a wash depending on CAD pricing.

    No way im paying for that fitness crap though.

    New ipad air is pretty neat. Has closed the gap so much to the pro that it is probably the one to get. Wonder what the A14 looks like vs the A12Z.
    My 10.5 pro is still working great though outside of the screen issue that seems to have been pretty prevalent. (https://www.macrumors.com/2018/12/19...n-bright-spot/)
    Looking forward to trying new ipad os.

    I want new iphone though, gimme gimme. Hopefully they announce that soon.

    Some new stuff is up, looks like normal ipad keeps 32gb base storage.

    I love the Touch ID on the iPad Air. Crossing fingers they bring that to iPhone.

    Also is USB C new for iPads? Haven’t been up to date on that but seems like a good step if it’s new

    It’s new outside of the Pro’s, they have had it for a few years now. Since the redesign.

    That fitness+ app is going to be the final nail in the coffin for a few gyms running in the US I reckon, well moreso if the pandemic continues into this time next year or beyond.
    It would be good if it ties natively into apple tv without having to beam any shit to the tv.

    The phones were never going to be ready in September anyway. Give it 3-4 weeks IMO.

    I bet we see an A14(X Z ///M 4Matic Plus whatever they call it) powered iPad Pro at some point too, pretty tough to justify the prices they charge for them unless they are pretty cutting edge.

    Apple one has a bunch of shit I dont need like apple tv streaming, and the gaming and news. I wish you could pick and choose your subscription options instead. Although $14.95 or whatever it was is not bad. $30 a month is a bit of a tough ask to get the fitness part too.

    Find this hard to believe, I feel like everyone I know has an iPad and that shit aint cheap, unless all the people on stimulus in the US are picking up Ipads.

    nzwasp watches presentation
    Well I guess it is pretty cheap at 329$

    The fact that the new ipad air has a square look reminds me of the original ipad.

    I already pay 15.00 for Apple Music and 4.20 for 200GB iCloud. With Apple One family I basically get Apple TV+ and arcade (I’ll never use this) free. Depending how FX shakes out maybe I’m out a couple bucks a month for AppleTV+ which is probably worth it even just for a once a year watch like Greyhound which was quite good.

    Seeing some unconfirmed reports that the series 6 watch has turfed the sapphire screen entirely. That’s a massive fail.

    Only place you can find sapphire mentioned is “sapphire and ceramic crystal back”

    On their website it has a picture of the back of the series 6 which says "Ion-X glass" https://www.slashgear.com/apple-watc...lass-27380853/

    https://www.apple.com/apple-watch-series-6/

    i dont think its new - it was in the sport edition - my series 3 also has ion-x glass and its also scratched.

    That’s an aluminum watch though which isn’t definitive, it’s always been glass.

    Tried their AR demo, also an aluminum watch based on colours

    My wife has had a couple aluminum watches, and they get scratched to shit like it’s nobodies business. Sapphire is non optional.
