WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.820
We're getting a new Apple Watch, we're getting a new iPhone, and we're getting new AirPods.

00:00:04.820 --> 00:00:08.620
It's all the products announced at this year's Apple September event.

00:00:08.620 --> 00:00:12.380
And instead of telling you what I think about all these announcements, I decided to go step

00:00:12.380 --> 00:00:15.500
further and ask you out on the street.

00:00:15.500 --> 00:00:20.500
So here goes. Hopefully people will answer my questions. Do you have any Apple products?

00:00:20.500 --> 00:00:23.500
I do, yeah, I have an M1. Oh, you have an M1?

00:00:23.500 --> 00:00:26.500
Okay. Did you watch the event? I did, yes.

00:00:27.500 --> 00:00:33.500
So did I, and by all intents and purposes, these are some solid updates to devices touched

00:00:33.500 --> 00:00:37.500
on during the event. But I don't know, that start felt a bit weird.

00:00:37.500 --> 00:00:41.500
One thing that stood out to me is that Apple's having a bit of a savior complex.

00:00:41.500 --> 00:00:46.500
They opened the video up with a bunch of letters to Tim Cook from people explaining how the

00:00:46.500 --> 00:00:53.500
Apple Watch saved their life. Now, of course, there are benefits to having a mobile device like an Apple Watch strapped

00:00:53.500 --> 00:00:57.500
to your person, but Apple is going a step further adding these safety features, not

00:00:57.500 --> 00:01:01.500
only to the Apple Watch, but some to the iPhone as well.

00:01:01.500 --> 00:01:06.500
The addition of emergency SOS via satellite and crash detection to the base iPhone 14

00:01:06.500 --> 00:01:10.500
does credibly show that you don't just need an Apple Watch to take advantage of the

00:01:10.500 --> 00:01:13.500
safety features Apple is offering now.

00:01:13.500 --> 00:01:17.500
Emergency SOS is neat because it connects the iPhone to a satellite service, allowing

00:01:17.500 --> 00:01:21.500
you to get help when you're in an emergency and out of cell service.

00:01:21.500 --> 00:01:25.500
Because there's no bulky antenna, you will have to help the iPhone maintain a signal.

00:01:25.500 --> 00:01:29.500
And if you don't have an emergency, you can share your location casually through the

00:01:29.500 --> 00:01:33.500
Find My app. And every iPhone comes with two years of the service.

00:01:33.500 --> 00:01:37.500
Now, if you are one of those people who does spend a lot of time out of cell service, then

00:01:37.500 --> 00:01:41.500
you might also be interested in the brand new Apple Watch Ultra.

00:01:52.500 --> 00:01:55.500
Okay, so there's a new Apple Watch and it's like super rugged.

00:01:55.500 --> 00:01:59.500
It can go under water 100 meters. You can use it scuba diving.

00:01:59.500 --> 00:02:05.500
It's also $800 US. I don't even have the regular one because I always thought I would bring it because I

00:02:05.500 --> 00:02:11.500
do those stuff. It looks cool, but I mean, unless you're like into like a pro scuba diver or something like

00:02:11.500 --> 00:02:14.500
that, I don't know why you'd want to spend $1,200 on a watch.

00:02:14.500 --> 00:02:17.500
I'm a little interested, but I don't know if I'll drop a K.

00:02:17.500 --> 00:02:20.500
Same as iPhone 14 price.

00:02:20.500 --> 00:02:23.500
So you could just get another phone, but you know, like...

00:02:23.500 --> 00:02:26.500
So the last guy said... I get it.

00:02:26.500 --> 00:02:29.500
I get it for the lifestyle. It does make sense.

00:02:29.500 --> 00:02:33.500
After watching all the Apple Watch Ultra stuff, it just made me feel bad for not having an

00:02:33.500 --> 00:02:40.500
action packed lifestyle. I'm not climbing up to the tops of mountains, diving under the ocean or running long, long

00:02:40.500 --> 00:02:44.500
distances. Am I going to have to do extreme sports to test the watch out?

00:02:44.500 --> 00:02:48.500
Definitely. We are jumping off from the plate.

00:02:48.500 --> 00:02:52.500
No. Also, the altimeter was added in the series five.

00:02:52.500 --> 00:02:55.500
I think. Or four. One of those ones.

00:02:55.500 --> 00:02:58.500
Are you an action packed person? Do you go out of big adventures? No.

00:02:58.500 --> 00:03:01.500
Definitely not something where I need a $1,200 watch. Definitely not.

00:03:01.500 --> 00:03:05.500
That's a bit much. I was like, people do this on a regular basis.

00:03:05.500 --> 00:03:12.500
How many hours do you have in a day? Is this going to be one of those rugged devices people buy but never actually need?

00:03:12.500 --> 00:03:16.500
Now, that increase in water resistance in the Apple Watch Ultra reminds me that this

00:03:16.500 --> 00:03:19.500
video is brought to you by...

00:03:19.500 --> 00:03:24.500
The Ultra in series eight now get a new temperature sensor that's meant to help enhance menstrual

00:03:24.500 --> 00:03:32.500
and ovulation tracking. Females have been dealing with menstrual cycles for centuries before this feature came along.

00:03:32.500 --> 00:03:36.500
For a lot of women, they're already quite in tune with their bodies.

00:03:36.500 --> 00:03:39.500
This isn't a feature that I would personally use.

00:03:39.500 --> 00:03:42.500
Would that be useful? I mean, for me, no.

00:03:42.500 --> 00:03:47.500
Fair enough. Fair enough. I don't plan to have kids for a while, but I can see how that could be helpful for other

00:03:47.500 --> 00:03:51.500
women, right? Or other people that are also trying to be pregnant.

00:03:51.500 --> 00:03:55.500
The updates to the series eight and the SC are a little bit more modest.

00:03:55.500 --> 00:03:58.500
Great if you're looking for an Apple Watch now, you'll get them.

00:03:58.500 --> 00:04:04.500
But with the SE, it has gone down in price to $250, but that also means the price of

00:04:04.500 --> 00:04:09.500
entry for the Apple Watch is up $50 now that the series three is discontinued.

00:04:12.500 --> 00:04:16.500
So you are in the market for a new iPhone.

00:04:16.500 --> 00:04:19.500
I am. The iPhone 14, just the base one.

00:04:19.500 --> 00:04:23.500
There's no more mini. There's now a new plus size. Basically, most of the stuff is the same, same processor.

00:04:23.500 --> 00:04:27.500
They just improved the camera slightly and they talked a lot about improving the night

00:04:27.500 --> 00:04:30.500
time low light situation. Right.

00:04:30.500 --> 00:04:34.500
So is that enough to get you into a 14? What kind of iPhone have you been looking into?

00:04:34.500 --> 00:04:40.500
I've been looking between the 13 and the 14. I'm not 100% sure if I'm completely sold on the 14 because it seems like the 13 is

00:04:40.500 --> 00:04:43.500
very similar to the 14. Yeah.

00:04:43.500 --> 00:04:47.500
I wish they did a mini, but made it ultra.

00:04:47.500 --> 00:04:50.500
A mini pro. That's what you want. A mini pro.

00:04:50.500 --> 00:04:56.500
Maybe it was a little island. It's $1,000 for US for an iPhone pro and then a pro max is another $100.

00:04:56.500 --> 00:05:02.500
I know some people that dropped that money, but not me. Apple talked up the increase in low light performance these new iPhones have thanks

00:05:02.500 --> 00:05:06.500
to their bigger sensors and the new photonic engine.

00:05:06.500 --> 00:05:12.500
They did make the camera better. It's got a 48 megapixel sensor on the main camera and they've been talking a lot about

00:05:12.500 --> 00:05:17.500
low light improvements. Do you take photos in like dark restaurants or at night a lot?

00:05:17.500 --> 00:05:21.500
Yes. Actually that, I think that would be one of the things that I would improve on Apple's

00:05:21.500 --> 00:05:26.500
quality. It seems that Apple's focusing their updates on the camera when it comes to the iPhone.

00:05:26.500 --> 00:05:31.500
Other than an emergency SOS, the only major update to the iPhone 14 is with the camera.

00:05:32.500 --> 00:05:38.500
And same thing with the pro as well. So the question is, is that the right direction to go with iPhone updates?

00:05:40.500 --> 00:05:44.500
With that pill shape on the pro, it has that cool notification animation.

00:05:44.500 --> 00:05:48.500
I like how they integrated the animations to fit with the design of the phone.

00:05:48.500 --> 00:05:55.500
Yeah. My thing is, it feels like it's only exclusive to the iPhone pro and it kind of feels a little...

00:05:55.500 --> 00:06:00.500
Yeah. The pro is cool, but like the regular one is terrible, I'd say.

00:06:00.500 --> 00:06:05.500
You talking about the notch? Yeah. Oh yeah, the AirPods Pro get an update too.

00:06:05.500 --> 00:06:08.500
It's supposed to sound better and be easier to find.

00:06:08.500 --> 00:06:11.500
They have a smaller tip design.

00:06:11.500 --> 00:06:16.500
Would that be helpful for you? I don't know, I'm always just like, I just buy it from the box and just put it in.

00:06:16.500 --> 00:06:19.500
If these extra small ones fit, that's a game changer.

00:06:19.500 --> 00:06:24.500
That changes everything. That's pretty amazing. I would imagine that the extra small tips for the second gen are going to fit on the first

00:06:24.500 --> 00:06:27.500
gen, right? I would hope so. That's the case, that.

00:06:27.500 --> 00:06:31.500
You can only get those tips in the second gen, would you buy a new pair of AirPods?

00:06:31.500 --> 00:06:36.500
I would. 249 US, they made the case better, so it's got a speaker if you need to find it.

00:06:36.500 --> 00:06:39.500
Do you ever lose that your AirPods case? Actually, no.

00:06:39.500 --> 00:06:44.500
I actually never lost it because they added a U1 chip so you can use your phone to find

00:06:44.500 --> 00:06:47.500
it. I mean, that's helpful for a lot of my friends, I know that.

00:06:47.500 --> 00:06:52.500
I'm still going to have to look up what the H2 chip does bring to the table, but there

00:06:52.500 --> 00:06:57.500
are a lot of modest improvements that if you're waiting to upgrade or to get a new pair

00:06:57.500 --> 00:07:04.500
of AirPods Pro, now's the time. But if you have a pair that still work really well, I think you're fine.

00:07:04.500 --> 00:07:09.500
It was a nice solid chunk of announcements today, and I think what we've learned talking

00:07:09.500 --> 00:07:14.500
to people on the street is whether these features benefit you depend on where you are in purchasing

00:07:14.500 --> 00:07:19.500
your next Apple device or if you have lots of money to buy that crazy Apple watch.

00:07:19.500 --> 00:07:24.500
Nevertheless, though, it's part of that evolution of Apple products, and I think many people

00:07:24.500 --> 00:07:29.500
will find all the improvements handy when they get them.

00:07:29.500 --> 00:07:32.500
Thanks to those who shared their thoughts for this Mac Address.

00:07:32.500 --> 00:07:36.500
Now, if you like what they had to say, give this video a like, and if you want to see if

00:07:36.500 --> 00:07:39.500
I'm going to become an action athlete, then maybe subscribe.

00:07:39.500 --> 00:07:43.500
Now, I am also curious what you the viewer think, so of course, comment your thoughts

00:07:43.500 --> 00:07:46.500
about Apple's announcements down below.
