Watch: All the details about the iPhone X that you may have missed
Things not mentioned:
- Beyond Gorilla Glass 5. Apple got first access to the next generation of Gorilla glass as a result of their $200 million investment in Corning. Apple claims the glass is reinforced with metal.
- First ever support for QZSS and Galileo satellite positioning in a consumer device that's I'm aware of. Provides for military grade GPS tracking.
- new generation haptic Engine
- Advanced AR technology built in with both rear cameras individually calibrated for AR. The front facing camera amd sensors have also been designed specifically for AR applications.
- 3D tracking using the front facing TrueDepth camera and sensors for a range of new applications.
- Should have put more emphasis on the Hardware Noise Reduction feature. Biggest breakthrough in mobile camera tech in years
- should have emphasised the 2436x1125 resolution - the best resolution in the business. I know Samsung claims the Note has a resolution of 2960x1440 but that's not exactly the case. Samsung by default turns down the resolution to 2220x1080 (which means the iPhone has a better resolution in real life use).
- Should have put more emphasis on the Dolby Vision and HDR10 certified screen (which means true color reproduction and better visual richness and detail than both Galaxy and Note even with technically less PPI)
- True tone display (adapts display to ambient lighting conditions to retain color reproduction accuracy)
- Real time motion and scene analysis for optimal video recording
- This was shown but not discussed. Visual battery status indicator for all connected devices via iPhone screen on the Airpower accessory. This is also the first time anyone has figured out multi device charging on a single Qi charging mat.

Delta CEO criticizes Microsoft's fragility, praises Apple's stability
My mum works for Air New Zealand and that entire company runs on macOS, so there is some kind of existing infrastructure in place for Delta to make that move if he is serious. The day of the Crowdstrike update they were mostly business as usual as everything and everyone around them was crumbling.

Apple's 'Mother Nature' sketch was a complete dud, and didn't belong in the iPhone 15 even...
Oh good. One of these guys (insert rolling eyes emoji here).Aladick said:Thank you for saying this out loud, William. Good grief that was brutal. As I mentioned in another post "saving the planet" isn't a selling point for me when it comes to purchasing an iPhone. And is it just me or are my white colleagues being excluded from every photo shot and from being presenter? Blacks and Asians must represents the majority of the populace here in the states. Apple thinks they're being clever. Nice try. Just more virtue signaling like what was done with "Mother Nature".
I think you did more to bring down the article than everyone else combined. I assure you William will be absolutely despondent at the fact that his one supporter in the comments section was you. Good job.

This may be the best look yet at the iPhone 15 color assortment
Even the pink is an off-white. Why is the company that made colours in tech famous so allergic to colour?darkvader said:Three off-whites and a pink.Black it is. No other options.

Users have to confirm screen recording permission every week in macOS Sequoia
I moved from Vista to macOS all those years ago specifically to get away from this BS. Apple needs to cut it out.

Probably should have just googled the Do Not Disturb button before going all in on a $2000 downgrade.

You might be ready for side loading on iPhone, but your parents aren't
Idea: During set up process, iPhone will ask you if you want to allow third party app stores with a warning of the risks. If you choose to proceed, iPhone will “jailbreak” your device via a baked in process to allow third party access. If not then your iPhone stays safe exactly the same as what it always has been. This can also be enabled/disabled through iPhone settings.

Apple Vision Pro will get a polish, not an overhaul at WWDC
Am I the only one that thinks that AVP has the most to gain from a a new AI Siri with ChatGPT 4o integration? A conversational UI is the holy grail for a device like the AVP. It would be fundamentally transformative for the AVP form factor and would make it infinitely easier to use and navigate the system and to get things done.For example, “open the Mount Hood environment, start my podcast, set my windows up around the house the way I had them yesterday and then search for that .pdf file I was working off on Friday about new product strategies. Make a spreadsheet and line chart from the projections in it and then email that to Tim. Then set up a FaceTime meeting at 11am and send the call link to my work team. Once that’s done open up a word document and begin taking dictation”.

Compared: AirPods 4 vs AirPods Pro 2 -- ANC without ear tips could tip the scales
ANC without needing ear tips, which I hate because they’re extremely uncomfortable and always fall
out no matter how many shapes and sizes I try, has been my dream feature for forever. Call me vanilla but I just don’t like sticking things in my orifices lol. Glad ANC on regular old earphones is finally possible.

Siri chatbot may be coming in 2026 as part of iOS 19
They should just buy Anthropic. Great reasoning. Actually decent at coding. Achieved both with way less money pumped into it than OpenAI did with ChatGPT and would be way cheaper to acquire. Apple is several years behind on this and acquiring Anthropic would bring them right back to the front of the pack.
