new apple screen protectors

kudos to belkin on worming their way into the apple store

To actually set the date back that far manually is quite laborious, requiring lots of scrolling, saving the time and then re-entering the time and date settings to scroll some more. Users are not likely to do it by accident, although pranksters have taken to bricking Apple Store demo units.

But there is a possibility that a malicious attacker could trick an iOS device connected to a network set to automatically adjusting its time settings into setting the date to 1 January 1970 by pretending to be a time server. A hacker could brick every 64-bit iPhone connected to a public Wi-Fi network, for instance.

Users curious about the bug have reportedly bricked their devices trying to disprove the reports on Reddit, ending up having to have the iOS devices replaced by Apple. The Guardian suggests that you do not try it.

how much for the protector and application?

hey y'all, can someone legit explain the point of making phones thinner and thinner to me? Bcz it seems to be what Apple is hellbent on doing but they've already got a product that is so thin that it's become difficult to use. What is the appeal of thinner and thinner? do people truly want this?

eventually it will be bendable/foldable i think is the end goal

We had the same thin-obsessed execs at Amazon. Not sure what it's all about. The latest Kindle (Voyage) is basically sharp on the edges, which is uncomfortably thin. The iPhone 6/6s have that stupid camera lens bump, which could have meant like 50% more battery life if they had just made the phone as thick as the camera module.

that is so crazy to me, like how much thicker is the bump than the rest of it??? it seems like making it microns thinner and having a bump is SO much more of a nuisance than making it a hair thicker and having everything be flush

With more battery!

I think thinness still signifies cutting-edge in consumers' minds (no pun intended). As the market matures there are fewer of those signifiers left.

I kind of like the rumors about a 4" iphone, the SE or whatever

hoping it will be advertised with a callback to

OTM. I lost my paperwhite and figured I'd step up to the latest and greatest, but it feels like a step back.

thinner the better yo

Definitely feels like thinness = number of blades on the razor so far as empty consumer status signifiers go. The prospect of folding screens is all very well but we'll need new tech for that, they can't just keep hammering it thinner until it bends.

the iphone ALREADY bent

I'm cool with thinner. Make it so you can't see the phone outline in my pocket.

plumbing new depths in keynote openings here

dropping a bunch of recycling and data science on ppl, hah hah take that gadget nerds

for some reason I thought Tim Cook was british. first time I've watched one of these with himzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

ppl going "woo!" at watch bands but no enthusiasm for ncaa tournament

thrilled at small iPhone

heck yeah get one in gold

btw night shift is pretty good, been using it in beta on ipad

these guys suck as presenters

they should hire ballmer strictly as a presenter

they can't even read off the teleprompter without awkward pauses.

I'm probably gonna get one of these new iPads, thanks to Finnair for canceling a long-haul flight in january so that by EU law they had to give me 600 euros

rly into this ambient light sensor idea

why don't they just make these updates to the regular iPad, f a pro imo

taking pictures with a tablet should be illegal

im guessing that they're gonna pull a switcheroo and say that it's actually just the updated mainline ipad

camera bump on the fucking ipad? so much for drawing on the damn thing

happy about the small phone but the names is indicative of their current lack of imagination. also fk 16gb that's disrespectful.

a 64gb model will be available too, but yeah please stop pretending that 48gb is worth $100, Apple

yeah - such bullshit that they went with baseline 16gb again

why are they so mean

i'm glad they brought back the Small iPhone With 3.5mm Headphone Jack right before they get rid of the 3.5mm Headphone Jack for Big iPhone

https://i.ytimg.com/vi/iVaxA_kVN8M/maxresdefault.jpg

Can we talk about that ugly rumour about the iPhone 7 ditching the headphone jack? Will there be some sort of adapter to convert the digital audio from the lightning port? Please tell me Apple isn't crazy enough to expect all of us to buy new iPhone-only headphones

oh they'll sell the hell out of some $20 adapter. thats the whole point.

i may not upgrade if they go this route. also won't upgrade if they keep the base 16g

I have nerve damage in one hand and can't hold the 6 or 6S - I bought a six last year and had to return and refund it. Too hard to hold. This new phone might be creatively bankrupt but I'm excited to get something I can actually use. One person's boring is another's accessible.

ok I bought the new mini iphone. the 6s (and obvs the 6s+) has been way too awkward for me.

is it... good?

i will tell you in 1 week. from what i can tell after 5 mins of research, it is essentially the same phone as the 6s* but in the 5/5s 4-inch body.

*except for 3D-touch and maybe a lesser front-facing camera, 2 features that I'm not particularly swayed by.

do any of youse have any positive feelings about the 5c?

I thought it was a nice phone, kind of underpowered but a good shape

would you have gone for an update of that (vs. the metal paradigm)?

i'm not sure what i'm into these days
