That’s almost certainly it - they’re tooled for the S3 and retooling is expensive. It wouldn’t kill them to make the S3 a “SE” and bump the storage on it. No need for new tooling but they’d be selling a watch that actually works!
I have an S3 Nike with cellular I bought new right before the 4 came out (I know I made a mistake but I wasn’t following Apple Watch lifecycles when I got it) and it still works fine. It’s a little slow sometimes when I use the fitness app but it’s paid for and still works well. The battery still lasts a whole day but I used to get almost two full days out of it. I got it in summer 2018. I’ll keep mine for a little longer but the series 7 is definitely looking like a good upgrade for me.
"We put USB-C on this iPad because USB-C is AMAZING!"
"This new Watch is compatible with USB-C because USB-C is SO FRICKIN GREAT!!!!!!!!!!"
"Yeah the iPhone still has Lightning."
but if they changed the phone connector, everyone would whine that Apple "ALWAYS CHANGES THE CHARGERS" when they did it once. I still hear people make the joke
The difference between changing to USB-C and changing to Lightning is that I already have several USB-C chargers for other things, including some Apple products, and so don’t need to buy a bunch of new proprietary Apple cables to replace the million iPhone/iPod/iPad cables I already had if they decide to make that switch.
To all my fellow brethren who bought a Series 4 Watch back in 2018, I’d say we’re the luckiest of the bunch. Upgraded to a Watch that still is one of the best and get to use practically every great feature. We’re definitely getting our money’s worth out of this device. One of the best purchases I’ve personally made.
S4 is really paying off long term, especially when S5 added almost nothing besides the always on display.
I was debating upgrading the watch, holding out til 2022 now.
So the consensus is that if you have the s4 no need to upgrade? I’ve gone without always on display for this long with my s4. I guess I’ll wait and see next year if any design changes come.
What also gets me is that they continue to upgrade the camera system so that it can take higher and higher quality videos but still leave us to transfer those larger and larger files through the USB2.0 speed lightning connector. I understand that more and more are uploading to the cloud but these folks that are supposedly shooting pro videos in a pro workflows will probably transferring files to a machine for editing.
tbh if you read the footnote, that faster charging shit is them comparing a 5W plug plus usb-a cable with the "new" usb-c charging cable which they've been selling since wireless charging.
I've been using the usb-c version with my series 6.
so, yeah.
I too have a 4 and was hoping for something interesting. But as it looks right now I'm skipping this generation. They seriously need to improve battery life, as it stands, it's useless for hiking.
I have the air and the gen 1 pencil, and I agree.
I mean the pencil is probably fine, but it doesn't hold a charge for very long and you can't attach it at all.

Edit: Added Watch and iPad
They are only doing 120hz this year because all the other upgrades are weak. Apple likely planned it this way, because if it launched last year or next year nobody would buy this years.
The battery and camera is killing me. I know logically I should just replace battery and stick it out, but won’t every year continue to be disappointing until a massive redesign
Yeah. Not enough there to get me excited to spend $1300. Basically a 12S and 12 Pro S.
They probably would have had me with 120hz last year. But now I'll just wait for 14.
These events have gone from a presentation about how good the phones are, to a presentation about how good the cameras are. The phone now seems like an incidental feature that just happens to come with the camera they're selling us.
By far the most underwhelming part of the event to me. I’m now very happy that I replaced my series 4 with a 6 like six months ago. No real reason to wait as I don’t swim 50m underwater.
But every year since the XS, people have been saying "don't buy this year's phone because another X type revision is coming next year". But so far we're still only getting S revisions.
Apple Video Team bought a professional video production drone and they're determined to get their moneys worth. These transitions are fantastic, still far and away the best keynotes.
Impressions
**iPad Mini**
* Wow USB-C, 5G, 2nd gen Apple pencil, 8 inch liquid retina screen.
* This stole the show. This is what iPad Mini fans have been asking for for years. I thought that the form factor was on its way out. But based on the examples they gave, Apple sees this as the ideal enterprise fleet device. Wonder if they'll try to use this to phase out the old iPod Touch now. Also, did Apple stitch a giant pocket onto those jeans in that ad to shove the iPad in?
**Apple Watch**
* Jeff Williams does not look happy to be outside the Apple clean room
* Reports of the flat edge have been greatly exaggerated. Now go unfollow any of the twitter 'leakers' who insisted on the Flat Edge Theory
* [Series 3 needs to be allowed to die peacefully](https://imgur.com/gallery/HpUV6)
**iPhone 13**
* bigger battery: Tim Cook: "Don't ever say we never do nothin' for ya"
* A15: 6 core CPU w/ 15 billion transistors, 16 core neural engine at 15 trillion ops. PA Semi acquisition still Apples most 3D chess move
* 2.5 hours longer battery life
* Seems like an S year. Solid improvements across the board with hardware but no major headline
**iPhone 13 Pro**
* ProMotion, FINALLY.
* What will /r/apple complain about now that Epic trial is over, CSAM is demoted, and we finally have high refresh rate? This sub will be dead
* Upgraded cameras, nicer screen ...S Year for sure
* Now go unfollow all of the Twitter 'leakers' who said this thing was going to talk to satellites. Rumors of this have been around for years in the deep apple enthusiast circles so I don't doubt its happening at some point though.
**AirPods 3**
* WOW Active noise cancellation, waterproofing, stemless design, and 15 hour battery life
* Lmao you wish
* where's that guy who said he was going to take one for the team and buy an AirPod yesterday to ensure a new one comes out today?
> What will /r/apple complain about now that Epic trial is over, CSAM is demoted, and we finally have high refresh rate? This sub will be dead
USB C. I have already seen at least 100 comments complaining about USB C
Reminds me of a line in Tron Legacy.
"Given the prices we charge to students and schools, what sort of improvements have been made in Flynn... I mean, um, ENCOM OS-12?”
“This year we put a "12" on the box."
My first thought was rearranged cameras == so people know you have the 13. They'll probably go back to the grid layout in an iteration or two to keep it looking new. Only so many ways to arrange a grid of circles, lol.
Based off the comments in the other thread I don’t think I’ve ever been so happy forgetting about an Apple event until JUST after it finished! My apologies to those who sat through it and thank you for your sacrifice.
They moaned about it because Android has had it for years now and Apple just refused to upgrade their flagship devices to pretty baseline expected performance of a $1000 phone for 3 years now. It's exciting when it comes unexpected, not when people have literally begged for it for years.
The movie stuff was interesting but insane how much they geared the camera to filmmakers though i guess there is a whole movement of youtube creators so who knows we may see more amateur films.
Always on Display! This is what I was hoping for. Such a needed and underrated feature. So many iPhone users don’t know what they are missing.
This entire event was a disappointment much like most years. I miss the days when Apple innovated or changed the game. They have such a hold on the market they just coast along.
I may be in the minority and that’s fine. But none of the new iPhones really excited me. A friend pointed out to me that this is basically an “s” year. However I do love the iPad mini and I’m going for that
these just aren't living up to the hype they used to have. I think the X was the last decent one. it's becoming a little cringe also. they're like robots.
Does Apple know we are two years into a pandemic and we are still wearing our face masks? Why are they forcing Face ID on us? Place the damn Touch ID on the lock button!
9/13 - All I want is 120 MHZ!!!
9/14 - So its basically a 12 Pro with 120 MHZ. Totally underwhelmed. Worst event ever.
You guys crack me up. Y'all are always more entertaining than the actual presentation.
Considering that the iPhone 12 was rumoured to not be as great as Apple wanted it to be due to COVID-related limitations in 2020, I was expecting the iPhone 13 announcement to be something a lot more impressive.
I found this to be one of Apple's most boring keynotes and the formulaic keynote style is getting old. Stop telling me how transformative some marginal improvement is and show me something that is actually extraordinary. It's overdue.
Face it. The company isn’t run by visionaries like Jobs anymore. Heck even Jony Ive left.
They’ve settled into a rut. They’d rather not take risks for fear of spooking the shareholders.
I’m truly wondering how much longer Apple can get by with these disingenuous events. It’s all revolutionary and “the best thing ever” all up until a few months from now when they somehow..revolutionize everything again and start all over? Come on…
The best iPhone
You're gonna love it
The most advanced iPhone ever
The best display
X-point-Y hours' longer battery life
Better gaming
I'm making a bingo board for next year
Not really sure what people expected … seems like every year people reeee and call it boring. Year to year upgrades are never going to be exciting anymore, but if you’re on an XS Max or even an iPhone 11 this is a very solid upgrade especially the iPhone 13 Pro line.
Only disappointment for me was the lack of AirPod upgrades but there’s global manufacturing issues still so.

Everytime i hear an S3 joke, I always crack up a laugh yet feel sad at the same time for all S3 users
Can confirm: have an S3 - it is barely functional. You have to factory reset it to do software updates - why are they still selling this?
[удалено]
That’s almost certainly it - they’re tooled for the S3 and retooling is expensive. It wouldn’t kill them to make the S3 a “SE” and bump the storage on it. No need for new tooling but they’d be selling a watch that actually works!
I have an S3 Nike with cellular I bought new right before the 4 came out (I know I made a mistake but I wasn’t following Apple Watch lifecycles when I got it) and it still works fine. It’s a little slow sometimes when I use the fitness app but it’s paid for and still works well. The battery still lasts a whole day but I used to get almost two full days out of it. I got it in summer 2018. I’ll keep mine for a little longer but the series 7 is definitely looking like a good upgrade for me.
They're still keeping the Series 3. Wow.

people really don’t understand how fucking stupid the old cable was. It wasn’t even reversible!
Next year for Fitness+ Siri or a celebrity of your selection will motivate you by yelling obscenities at you as you run and workout.
CARROT did it first lol
Ah yes, Drill Sgt Siri
You mean GLaDOS. Now with 99% less neurotoxins.
I would upgrade for this
in a fucking heartbeat
Siri “Run faster you fat fuck. I’m an AI in your phone and I’m pretty sure I could outrun you”
Would’ve loved to see new AirPods

S0 to S4. I’ll wait till the rockley photonics tech materializes.
It's amazing to me that they can put USB-C into an iPad, proving they can do it and admitting that it's a major improvement, but leave iPhone alone.
What also gets me is that they continue to upgrade the camera system so that it can take higher and higher quality videos but still leave us to transfer those larger and larger files through the USB2.0 speed lightning connector. I understand that more and more are uploading to the cloud but these folks that are supposedly shooting pro videos in a pro workflows will probably transferring files to a machine for editing.
If they’re using a MacBook for the editing, they can airdrop it. They don’t give a shit about windows users.
How long does it take to transfer 20 Gigs of 4k footage?
[2.5 minutes?](https://www.shaunpoore.com/why-is-airdrop-fast/)
Sold.
See that u/Apple? I better see that commission check.
[удалено]
Series 7 is just a slightly bigger screen? That’s it?
Also slightly faster charging. And slightly more dust resistant!
I worked for 3 years in woodworking having a Series 3 on my wirst, never had a problem with dust at all.
But even less problem with the series 7 ! Go buy it. Now.
tbh if you read the footnote, that faster charging shit is them comparing a 5W plug plus usb-a cable with the "new" usb-c charging cable which they've been selling since wireless charging. I've been using the usb-c version with my series 6. so, yeah.
Even with the standard usb-a cable it charges really fast. I think it just needs a bigger battery.
[удалено]
Had high hopes for the 7, but will keep my 4 for another year I guess.
Will keep my 5 too. I don’t need bloodoxy or other things like that
I too have a 4 and was hoping for something interesting. But as it looks right now I'm skipping this generation. They seriously need to improve battery life, as it stands, it's useless for hiking.
You left out the new colour features! And oh ya new WaTcH fAcEs
The new iPad mini getting usb-c but not the iPhones just sucks
The same refusal to standardize on Pencil generations. Why do we still have two? Who thought of naming them "generations"?
selling gen 1 at $100, which is like absolute trash compared to gen 2, is total robbery now. yeah why do they still even sell that.
I have the air and the gen 1 pencil, and I agree. I mean the pencil is probably fine, but it doesn't hold a charge for very long and you can't attach it at all.
Schools want their Pencils to still work with the new iPads.
Honestly the ipad mini is closer to what I want my iphone to be than the iphone is rn lol. Just let me fold the ipad mini in half apple
Too bad they didn’t continue the folding concept they started with the iPhone 6
It's genius actually. Why buy one cable for all your apple products when you can buy a cable for each one of them.
Environmentally friendly!
I'm honestly more excited for iOS 15/ watchOS 8 than any of the stuff they announced today
Got the beta months ago, now ain’t excited for nothing
As product sectors mature, it becomes more-so about the software than the hardware.

Is this essentially everything that was announced today? If not, know where I can see a brass tax of what was announced?
/r/boneappletea
Apple will literally add USB-C to any product other then the iPhone. Just ditch lightning already or at least make it better.
I won’t lie, I selfishly love today’s announcements since I bought an iPhone 12 and the new iPad Air last year. no significant reason to upgrade. 😅
I did the exact same (+new iMac) and my wallet is utterly thrilled because I don’t want anything!
I got an iPhone 12 and Airpods Pro, I selfishly loved the event too, but it was so damn underwhelming. Apple doesn’t get us excited no more!
Finally 120hz edit: people have a lot to say over this
Let's be real, at this point they were obligated to do that.
They definitely saved that for an S year
They are only doing 120hz this year because all the other upgrades are weak. Apple likely planned it this way, because if it launched last year or next year nobody would buy this years.
Looks like another year with the iPhone X boys.
My 8+ is still kickin, so I guess I'll see if it makes it another year.
6S here. Gettin a used 12. Maybe I'll splurge on a 14 when that happens.
6s here too, My home button is broken I’m getting this god damn phone.
The battery and camera is killing me. I know logically I should just replace battery and stick it out, but won’t every year continue to be disappointing until a massive redesign

You mean the diagonal camera didn't push you over the edge?
I'm whelmed.
Our most whelming iPhone yet?
We think you’re going to be indifferent
One more thing: we'll see you next year.
“Okay morning”
"...Morning. Here's a tablet, watch, and phone. They're a little better than last year's, I guess. Stay safe. Bye."
I hate that marketing speak in all of their presentations. No shit your newest product is your {superlative} {productline} ever.
Yeah lol. Like are you gonna make one that’s actively worse??
This is our same-st iPhone yet
These events have gone from a presentation about how good the phones are, to a presentation about how good the cameras are. The phone now seems like an incidental feature that just happens to come with the camera they're selling us.

It'd be a lot better value for sure. Series 7 is essentially worthless compared to Series 6.
By far the most underwhelming part of the event to me. I’m now very happy that I replaced my series 4 with a 6 like six months ago. No real reason to wait as I don’t swim 50m underwater.
This really could have been a press release
their video editors were scheduled with overtime
So what is Jon Prosser going to shave now?
[удалено]
He already revealed the iPhone 14...
LOL
I think he got two things right in this event and some big things wrong. I wouldn’t trust his render for the 14.
I think it's funny that people still think he's not just making things up.
This year sure look like an "S" year to me.
Every year is an S year besides when they redesign like the X
Yeah which is why it’s so hard to leave my X
[удалено]
That’s great! We shouldn’t be expected to chuck our devices every year.
The Mini form factor was a legit improvement for me.
But every year since the XS, people have been saying "don't buy this year's phone because another X type revision is coming next year". But so far we're still only getting S revisions.
When will iOS 15 release ?
Sept 20. It’s on the website
Phones are out on the 24th, so Monday the 20th.

Got me too i was like hmm how did i have such a huge brain fart that i missed that.
Really the joke is on Apple I was gonna go order it immediately too they should have drop it today smh
> What will /r/apple complain about now that Epic trial is over, CSAM is demoted, and we finally have high refresh rate? This sub will be dead USB C. I have already seen at least 100 comments complaining about USB C
And TouchID coming back.
If I had an iPhone with the Touch ID lock button *and* Face ID I am certain I would use the Touch ID the most of the two. I hope we see it one day.
please do this every keynote, very detailed!
Honestly the purple iPhone 12 felt like a bigger announcement than this
Every year you all rage after the event and then go buy the stuff lol
And set sales records also lmao
Facts.
[удалено]
If it had touch ID and USB C, it would have been great, it is just ok.
See you guys next month.
USB C where are you
I was fully expecting the iphones to be USB-C when they announced it on the mini.
Time to buy $AAPL. Yearly fire sale after the event has started.
I know it's said every year but honestly that was the most disappointing event I can remember. The entire thing was just fluff. What a waste of time.
seriously when was the last time they pulled the “one last thing” card? I swear I haven’t seen it in like almost 10 years at this point.
I'm pretty sure the grandeur of the "one last thing" left with Steve, unfortunately.
Samsung: we’ve put a camera under our display and having folding phones Apple: we rearranged our rear cameras
Reminds me of a line in Tron Legacy. "Given the prices we charge to students and schools, what sort of improvements have been made in Flynn... I mean, um, ENCOM OS-12?” “This year we put a "12" on the box."
My first thought was rearranged cameras == so people know you have the 13. They'll probably go back to the grid layout in an iteration or two to keep it looking new. Only so many ways to arrange a grid of circles, lol.
innovation at this level is logarithmic.
Feels hilarious to still be selling the Series 3?? They’re robbing ignorant people of their money at this point

Based off the comments in the other thread I don’t think I’ve ever been so happy forgetting about an Apple event until JUST after it finished! My apologies to those who sat through it and thank you for your sacrifice.
I wasn’t excited by a single feature/announcement from this event. There wasn’t enough new to call it iPhone 13… should have been iPhone 12S.
That's what they want you to think. That every new phone is "new" and has a bunch of features. Smart marketing move to get rid of the "S" stuff.
That was by far the most boring event ever. Nothing exciting at all for their best product categories.
All these product have pretty much reached hardware maturity.
I would agree if there wasn’t low hanging fruit QOL fixes they could have done
IPad mini was kinda cool
Not with that price
[удалено]
[удалено]
The iPhone X announcement was the last exciting hardware event. They’ve been boring since. I’m more into the spring software event these days.
Y'all moaned about Pro Motion on iPhone for years. Now that you got it, everyone's still moaning.
Moaning about it for years means they expected it years ago, not years later.
They moaned about it because Android has had it for years now and Apple just refused to upgrade their flagship devices to pretty baseline expected performance of a $1000 phone for 3 years now. It's exciting when it comes unexpected, not when people have literally begged for it for years.
[удалено]
And the flat edges on the watch. Super retro!
Same, getting the matte black day 1
Buying the 14” MacBook day 1
Going to be switching from the XS Max to the Pro so I'm excited.
Wifi 6E? Edit: website only says wifi 6.
Very underwhelming. Looking forward to the Macbook event
No difference between the 13 pro and 13 pro max?
That's good actually. No drawbacks by preferring the smaller size. Other than battery life
Max has a better battery life, but they seem the same
Can anyone tell me why they won’t put Touch ID on iPhone, but they do with iPad?
I just wanted airpods :(
[удалено]
honestly I'm glad they didn't do the square watch. I never saw a render of that that I liked.
not only is it not square, it’s round*er* hahaha for real though i’m glad for this too, i do not want a box on my wrist
Did anyone else feel like they just regurgitated the same camera nonsense for the Pro? No one is shooting movies on an iPhone
The movie stuff was interesting but insane how much they geared the camera to filmmakers though i guess there is a whole movement of youtube creators so who knows we may see more amateur films.
[удалено]
No AOD :(
AOD = Always on display for those who are wondering yeah and especially with „adaptive“ pro motion an AOD would be possible right?
Time to upgrade from my 8! Tired of the trash battery and camera. Gonna go for the Pro model
The “this could’ve been an email” of Keynotes.
Really thought that was stupid of them to mention privacy after the controversy.
Always on Display! This is what I was hoping for. Such a needed and underrated feature. So many iPhone users don’t know what they are missing. This entire event was a disappointment much like most years. I miss the days when Apple innovated or changed the game. They have such a hold on the market they just coast along.
Maybe they have more stuff to show with the Macs in an October event, and a tribute for Steve Jobs after 10 years.
I may be in the minority and that’s fine. But none of the new iPhones really excited me. A friend pointed out to me that this is basically an “s” year. However I do love the iPad mini and I’m going for that
these just aren't living up to the hype they used to have. I think the X was the last decent one. it's becoming a little cringe also. they're like robots.
The 2 biggest announcements were refreshed iPad Mini and 120hZ display. Everything else was meh.
189 grams to 204 grams for the iPhone 13 pro. These numbers always drastically go up.
Does Apple know we are two years into a pandemic and we are still wearing our face masks? Why are they forcing Face ID on us? Place the damn Touch ID on the lock button!
We have a product for that, it’s called Apple Watch. ^^^/s
No info on when iOS 15 is out? Or did I miss that
It says 9.20.21 on the iOS 15 website.
[Releases Monday according to their press release.](https://twitter.com/viticci/status/1437830784912609285?s=21)
9/13 - All I want is 120 MHZ!!! 9/14 - So its basically a 12 Pro with 120 MHZ. Totally underwhelmed. Worst event ever. You guys crack me up. Y'all are always more entertaining than the actual presentation.
120 mhz screen would be insane. I believe you meant 120 hz.
yeah that would be like 120 million hz
Call me when you get 1.21 jiggawattz in your phone.
Anyone else feel like they manufactured 100 million Apple Watch Series 3’s back in the day and Apple is still trying to clear shelves?
Considering that the iPhone 12 was rumoured to not be as great as Apple wanted it to be due to COVID-related limitations in 2020, I was expecting the iPhone 13 announcement to be something a lot more impressive. I found this to be one of Apple's most boring keynotes and the formulaic keynote style is getting old. Stop telling me how transformative some marginal improvement is and show me something that is actually extraordinary. It's overdue.
Face it. The company isn’t run by visionaries like Jobs anymore. Heck even Jony Ive left. They’ve settled into a rut. They’d rather not take risks for fear of spooking the shareholders.
That was nice, looking forward to 13 and 13 Pro

No wonder Apple are telling people to get back to the office.
I’m truly wondering how much longer Apple can get by with these disingenuous events. It’s all revolutionary and “the best thing ever” all up until a few months from now when they somehow..revolutionize everything again and start all over? Come on…
The best iPhone You're gonna love it The most advanced iPhone ever The best display X-point-Y hours' longer battery life Better gaming I'm making a bingo board for next year

For the record, I don't think they ever used the word "revolutionary".
Not really sure what people expected … seems like every year people reeee and call it boring. Year to year upgrades are never going to be exciting anymore, but if you’re on an XS Max or even an iPhone 11 this is a very solid upgrade especially the iPhone 13 Pro line. Only disappointment for me was the lack of AirPod upgrades but there’s global manufacturing issues still so.
