@manton I'm 99% sure they talked about this during The Talk Show Live that it won't be a hit, and that their PCC servers are all running on 100% renewable energy.

@Gte You'll be able to get all your info pre-set so that the pre-order on 9.13 is basically one click confirmation.

@jarrod Okay, false alarm. There is a 42mm option.

@charliemchapman Wow, they really buried the lede on that, didn't they?

@rsilvernail You've got the Pro Max? My mini is struggling these days.

@jsonbecker Oh no! Hopefully it'll get sorted out for the final release. But I'm not holding my breath.

@jarrod Did we get release dates for all the OSes? It's the only thing I need for a double Bingo!

@jarrod No mention of FineWoven. And no stats on that "faster" MagSafe.

@jarrod The Weeknd must really like working with Apple. A photoshoot, video shoot, and upcoming Immersive Video project.

@jarrod Joz got some new glasses! They're cool, but not as cool as The Weeknd's pair. 😎

@jarrod That multi-layer feature for Voice Memos sounds like it would have been perfect for Music Memos, which I still don't understand why they killed.

@manton I'm drawn to Natural or the White color in lieu of anything actually fun.

@jarrod I recognize this set...but wasn't it filled with more artistic stuff last time?

A person speaks to the camera in a studio filled with computer workstations and lighting equipment, surrounded by wooden walls and large prints on display.

@jarrod BINGO!

Bright pink bingo card for an Apple event, titled "‘It’s Glowtime’ Apple Event Bingo, HeyDingus Edition," features cells with a vertical Bingo win.

@jarrod Oh shit, I think I'm about to get a Bingo on my own board!

Bingo card (object) displays various predictions (action) for an Apple event, with a bright pink and orange color scheme (context). The title reads “‘It’s Glowtime’ Apple Event Bingo, HeyDingus Edition.”

@jarrod I'll be honest, I kinda zone out during the Apple silicon segments like I do during the game segments. I trust they've made a killer chip, but the "speeds and feeds" goes over my head.

@jarrod 6.3" screen on the smaller Pro. I already know it's going to feel huge, but hopefully I can get used to it. I think my last iPhone Pro had a 6.1" screen.

@jarrod Woohoo! I'm unreasonably excited that the titanium frame isn't super shiny. That'd be too gaudy for 2024.

@jarrod That's a pretty good upgrade for the non-Pro iPhones. Let's see what they're gonna do for Pro, though. I actually thought the Camera Control was gonna be a Pro-only feature.

@jarrod I've said it before, but the satellite messaging features are a huge part of my pull toward upgrading my phone this year. It might let me ditch my $25/month Garmin satellite messaging plan. That's a notable portion of a new phone's cost over two years!

@jarrod Always nice to hear "a big boost in battery life".

@matthewcassinelli I've had to do a rewatch on most of the last few years' events. They go so fast.

@jamesthomson And does a great job at it.

@jarrod Wow, there's a lot going on with those two lenses in the iPhone 16.
