Thats it?
Thats it.

 

[gimmmick]

2 hours my ass lol

 

[LyleLanley]

Well that was boring.

 

[flyover]

Did they really need an event for this?

Sure. Why not? Got us to watch, and gets more press.

 

[BlastProcessing]

A tablet could never replace a real PC or laptop.

My wife is disabled and has had to switch to a tablet out of necessity.

It absolutely can replace a real PC.

 

[Zombie James]

That's is it? Well this sucked.

 

[Two Words]

RIP Skylake Macbook Pro.

 

[Dreadnought]

Wait WHAT ITS OVER?!

 

[Jayayess1190]

Macbooks are dead.

 

[Juice]

Ugh. Zero surprises. Zero products that are the top of the line in their category.

Shouldn't have an event unless they're able to raise the bar on something.

 

[Chittagong]

Wasn't really worth inviting people over for these launches to be honest, could have just updated the store

 

[Wiz]

Don't wait too long. You don't want to be a soundbite on a presentation about how youre holding onto outdated technology

I have a 2012 macbook too!! But they all don't feel old to me yet, so that could be either a good thing or bad thing for Apple

 

[jacobs34]

That was by far the least impressive Apple press event I've ever watched.

 

[The Albatross]

Terrible event compared to the hype. not sure if that's Apple's fault, though.

 

[Sesuadra]

well that's it lol.

 

[Netherscourge]

Sticking with the iPad Air 2.

I'll get a Pro in a couple years when they are dirt cheap as Certified Refurbs.

 

[Fuchsdh]

Short and sweet, the last couple of 'casts felt bloated so I'm happier with this.

Sticking with the iPad Air 2.

I'll get a Pro in a couple years when they are dirt cheap as Certified Refurbs.

Yeah the refurbs are a pretty great way to save plenty on Apple gear.

 

[Zantetsuken]

Pack it up, folks. We're done here.

 

[subrock]

SE has live photos but no 3D touch according to Ars??

and yet no one will miss it I'm guessing

 

[Pixels]

Macbook Pro... noooooooo

 

[mcarlie]

So two smaller versions of what they already have and "look at how great we are"

 

[NoblesseOblige]

That was a quick 2 hours.

 

[SteveO409]

FUCK NO MACBOOK ANNOUNCEMENT

 

[FZZ]

Where's the Yung Miitomo tho

 

[Vashetti]

Well that was... yeah.

Here's everything we did last year, but smaller.

 

[HighResTomato]

Well that was shit. Going to have to hold out on a new Macbook even longer

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

Time to monitor the stock.

It was down almost $1 earlier, jumped up to only down 25 cents.

Now down 38 cents

 

[MicH]

Where are the fucking Macbooks

 

[Not]

This is bullshit. Will they ever introduce a new macbook or are they really trying to get me to use an iPad Pro for everything instead?

 

[LordOfChaos]

I wonder if the SE and iPad Pro 9.7" use TouchID 1 or 2, I know the iPad Pro 13" uses TouchID 1 which is kind of annoying after getting used to 2 on the 6S.

 

[BFIB]

Hmmnm, might offload my first gen Air and go for an Air 2 then.

 

[AngryMoth]

Great price for the SE. Bad price for the iPad pro

 

[Anth0ny]

Ugh. Zero surprises. Zero products that are the top of the line in their category.

Shouldn't have an event unless they're able to raise the bar on something.

Are there ever any surprises anymore? I feel like we already know everything they're going to show in September at this point lol

 

[Guess Who]

Ugh. Zero surprises. Zero products that are the top of the line in their category.

It's hard to imagine an argument that the iPhone SE isn't the best 4-inch phone on the market and the iPad Pro isn't the best 10" tablet on the market.

 

[samn]

Ugh. Zero surprises. Zero products that are the top of the line in their category.

Shouldn't have an event unless they're able to raise the bar on something.

The 10" iPad Pro has at least one feature the 12" doesn't (Tru Tone).

 

[Condom]

What no surprise?

 

[Zutroy]

Unusually short conference for them.

 

[infiniteloop]

Exactly what Gurman said it would be weeks ago. surprise.

 

[BAW]

But... my 4K Ipad dream

 

[Zombie James]

Ugh. Zero surprises. Zero products that are the top of the line in their category.

Shouldn't have an event unless they're able to raise the bar on something.

NEW STRAPS.

 

[Dr. Feel Good]

Whoa.. what a weak event.

 

[Futureman]

Did they really need an event for this?

Yea, one of the more boring/predictable Apple events.

iPhone is their biggest money maker though and a new 4" version with top of the line specs @ $400 is something they want everyone to know about.

 

[flyover]

Where are the fucking Macbooks

They'll update in a couple months, most likely. I hope.

 

[Chris R]

That's it? What a letdown.

 

[TheCarrotKiller]

I will enjoy updating my iPad 3, but the price is a bit jarring. And with an even cheaper Air 2 this may be a bit difficult choice. But to go for a 1,5 year old device seems not desirable. What do you other recommend, will choose the 32GB of either model.

Already over, huh?

 

[chocoedd]

They keep saying "personal computing" for Ipad. Are they going to discontinue Macbook someday?

 

[massoluk]

I don't think I have ever been more disinterested by what Apple has to offer in one of their events. Just incremental upgrade all around.

 

[friskykillface]

Where's U2 at?

Wonder if Best Buy will do trade in specials for iPads to upgrade

 

[Ensirius]

This has been by far the weakest keynote Apple has ever done.

 

[Kysen]

looks like this event was for the shareholders, to ease the ipad decline.
