Let's Be Reality For A Sec:The iPhone Event Will Be A Letdown

[detroitwalt]

Simply because everything has leaked out already. And the stuff that has leaked, none of it has been something others phones don't already have with the exception of the Siri update.

LTE
Turn by turn GPS
Notifications is still ass cheeks, don't know why they haven't bought BiteSMS yet


The biggest surprise/disappointment from last years event was that the tear drop iPhone didn't drop even though everyone was sure that it was going to happen.

I'm hoping Apple has something else up up their sleeve that they've been able to keep under wraps.

With that said, I'll be tuning in on Wednesday to the keynote event and I'll still be copping because I have invested a lot in the iOS ecosystem with apps and I enjoy being being able to from phone to pad and not miss a beat.

I remember back in 2006 me being the only dude around my area with an ipod 32gb video lol. Co-workers was asking to borrow it to workout with (man how times have changed). I was addicted to that freaking thing, mostly, because I was taking public transit at the time and I could zone the fukk out with my earbuds. Now, EVERYONE has apple this and that but I may get an iphone 5 for old times sakes. Just hate they it's supported by usb3.0. I wonder if the male/female inserts are changing to smaller as well.....

i'm just looking forward to a new ipod touch with more RAM. you only get 256MB with the 4g and apps don't want to open when you are low on memory.

the only real difference in experience will be longer () screen and lte

iOS 6 and all apps will still work the same. Only blind consumerism can force people to change almost identical phones every year.

With that being said why even make this thread? If you will accept whatever crap Apple decides to make, just be a good little lemming and show up for your brand new iphone whenever it launches?

Apple isn't even trying anymore. It seems like they just watch what kinda features android is pushing hard and they'll include the same shyt in iOS with an apple touch on it. With that being said I'm still gonna get an iphone 5

I do Apple Tech Support so you know they're training me on this. Not allowed to say anything about iOS6 or the iPhone 5 but I will say that there's some shyt that you don't even see in Sci-Fi movies yet that Android doesn't even have yet. I'm a Samsung nicca and don't own any Apple products. I enjoy my rooted Infuse 4G but yo the iPhone 5 ain't no joke. Ya'll ain't even heard the half.

 

[GulfCoastGhost]

Prove me wrong (seriously, if there is an app as good as the iPhone music player, you have to let me know)

If you haven't followed Apple's strategy over the years then sure you might be "dissapointed", but really Apple is doing what they've been doing for YEARS, which means NOBODY should be expecting any huge surprises for the IPhone 5.


1). One of Apple's main concerns is and has always been BATTERY LIFE alot of the extra features and Scifi gizmos that people clamor for would sacrifice the batter life of the device, why do you think Apple generally waits 2-3 cycles AFTER a new technology is introduced before they consider it for their products? LTE was a MAJOR battery drain on all the first generation 4G Android devices, they've just now introduced LTE Chips that are decent at Power consumption.

2). Apple has the most brand loyal fans on the planet. That means that as long as the iPhone stays competitive with other devices, their customers will continue supporting them. That saves money on Apple's bottom line because their not going "feature for feature" with competitors. They've got the best App Store, the most stable software ecosystem, the best and most convenient Music/Video store, and the most universal accessories.

3). Apple always generally plays it safe. When's the last time an Apple product really took a risk and was first to market a new technology that wasn't invented by them? That's why Blu-Ray, NFC, etc. haven't been introduced because Apple would have to license the technology instead of owning it themselves. Apple's main focuses for innovation are always the same. Making the device thinner ( Steve Jobs was apparently obsessed with this) making sure that the end to end experience is as simple to use and convenient as possible, and making sure the product works as flawlessly as possible.
