you might be surprised by this but look here in the Kingdom of the gaming PC a
quiet Stillness emerges during any Apple event like today's Apple watch and
iPhone announcement and that's because my colleagues will stop what they're
doing and watch so if they're all watching the event
anyways why am I the only one sharing my thoughts on it you know what I'm going
to ask them what they think because this year they're going to be especially
interested in one major change that Apple's brought
today was the big day today was the big day and what they brought us is USBC yes
the iPhone and airpods pro have ditched lightning since starting this job I
can't tell you how many people have told me they'd switched to the iPhone if it
supported the universal plug is it enough for you to actually upgrade from
a knife your 13 mini I think so personally USBC on the iPhone is a big
deal it enables DisplayPort so you should be able to use the same hubs that
you have with your laptop but there are caveats vanilla 15s only support the USB
2 spec while the pros support USB 3 and
it's faster 10 gigabytes per second you have a 14 pro have you had to take
photos or videos off it through lightning or do you just do the cloud
not Cloud you just do the cloud yep would you get a new iPhone for USBC no
okay they've got a nice little pastel line going on but I still like who picks
a colored iPhone seriously I do
what color would you go for green Green's a good color they're very baby
colors yeah there's a new 48 megapixel camera in the 15 which is great what's
notable this time around is that it and the larger sensored Pro offer an
improved pixel mini mode for less than ideal lighting conditions instead of
Simply processing 4 pixels into one and outputting a 12 megapixel image like the
14 pro did these use the photonic engine pipeline to Output 24 megapixel images
if I'm picking a phone I'm not using it
for the camera specifically it's like I'd rather just use a camera at that
point oh the camera is better but I'm still never impressed by by iPhone
cameras with the USBC Port inclusion of the dynamic Island update to an a16 chip
and 48 megapixel camera the iPhone 15 looks really compelling but I can't
shake the gross feeling that the reason it does is because last year's iPhone 14
was so lackluster but the pro wasn't so
how does this new one top it all the Titan
on the iPhone 15 Pro on the iPhone 15
Pro that was interesting I mean it's a whole new material change but no new
design so it's a stronger like lighter material the ring silent switch is gone
it's there's an action button with haptic feedback that you can use for a
ring in silent but also for other things okay there's a new a17 Pro three
nanometer chip with a pro class GPU that
supports Ray tracing and will enable Resident Evil Village in four and
Assassin's Creed to be released on the iPhone 15. Pro makes no sense but right
I really don't game on that phone like I know me neither I'm sure my Orange
channel colleagues will have more to say about the a17 pro chip but this further
makes my point about the pros pushing ahead well a basic iPhone get an a17
non-pro chip next year and will it support Ray tracing like the pros do now
Pro Max it's a special camera bump apart
from the pro which is a 5x Zoom no
that's cool do you care about a big Zoom no what I'm most upset about is that the
iPhone Mini has been completely dropped from the lineup I was hoping that a 500
13 mini would make for an affordable option between the Aged SC and midsize
13. but alas doesn't the only reasonable
explanation I will accept is the SE is
going to get the mini form factor in the near future I'm not a huge fan of the
larger phones the mini is completely gone I would just have to buy a 15 and
deal with it like a 15 normal okay so let me tell you about this

what did you think about the whole environmental thing I think I think it's
good I like the fact that they are not using leather as well I love leather
cases no but we need happy cows no leather watch bands no leather iPhone
cases and then obviously packaging is going to be completely paper as well
where does manufacturing stand in all of
that did you like that scene with Mother Nature at the beginning was kind of
weird and funny and then it was like okay like ah it's good yeah okay the
Apple watch receives the smallest incremental updates of the company's
entire lineup but after three generations of sips systems in a package
running the same CPU we finally got a
major upgrade with the new S9 it's much faster and gets a neural engine that
enables on-device Siri processing and hand gestures so this double tap gesture
so if you do this you can answer and end
a phone call didn't they already have something like that that's what I thought gestures on the Apple watch
aren't new Sarah tried them out when she unboxed each Series 7 two years ago so
it's weird they're making a big deal about this today I think however the
neural processing on the S9 has helped make them reliable enough to put on by
default would you use a gesture like that I think so really I feel like it's
handy well if it works do I think that's interesting no I don't think that's I
don't use the gestures that already exist on the phone uh I like the gesture
thing but I don't think it's like super worth it just buy it just because of
that brighter screens are also the story of this event the series 9 and even
iPhone 15 now can punch up to 2 000 nits
outdoor brightness which is impressive however they are both totally outdone by
the 3000 it's the Apple watch Ultra 2 can admit that's always nice how will
that affect battery life I wasn't expecting the ultra to get
upgrades but for the 800 asking price it's probably for the best because the
people who own them really like them my husband loves it your husband really he
says he's the best Apple product what really yeah sorry I'm just a little
shook here yeah I'm an Apple Watch Ultra fan actually I'm wearing it right now I
mean it feels like mine just a tiny bit
better I just like the fact that it has a big screen there you go well it's even
brighter now big and bright this year's September event ran almost
an hour and a half and I don't think it needed to be that long I'm personally
getting a little tired of these infomercials and would like the return
to the good old days of the live stage event so how would you rate this Apple
event out of 10 10 or something
um I haven't finished the entire thing yet oh okay but like from the things you
mentioned and what yeah did I watch
let's say like a seven six okay do you
miss the live stage events yes
you prefer them over these infomercials yes me too they've built the Steve Jobs
theater for a reason right maybe they'll use it for the iPhone 16
event thanks for holding back last year's Mac Address to make this one seem
even better if you're excited about the new iPhone 15 and 15 Pro give this video
a like and if you're a big Apple watch user then you might as well subscribe
I'm curious below what features or
devices or things that were announced in Apple's event that I didn't quite touch on you're most excited about
