io_burn posted:Do you have any more details on this? Could a charger and headphone port dongle just not exist at all? Or would it need to be a real weird set of headphones that you end up plugging your power cord into? It could still work. All of the hardware needed to convert the lightning signal to analog would be at the base and you just have another jack there like the lightning HDMI or VGA dongles.

Garbage phone for idiots. Removing the headphone jack is stupid as fuuuuuuck. I don't use mine often (bluetooth headphones/car) but one of the best perks of an iPhone (or any smart phone) is that if I'm renting a car, staying in a hotel, anywhere I go I can plug an aux cable into a stereo and blast my jams. What the gently caress's with Apple and making their devices thinner. Don't remove a main feature, idiots. I want to punch TIm Cook in his goddamn rear end. Henrik Zetterberg posted:3.5mm is stupid anyway. Just lol if you don't use bluetooth headphones exclusively already. I can see how if you exclusively spend your time in your own house then yeah, sure, fair point. smoobles fucked around with this message at 01:25 on Sep 8, 2016 |

I mean it has to be Bluetooth right? They said it can pair to your Mac and iPad which don't have radios for some brand new standard.

A little late on Spotify/Apple Music chat, but whoever wins is probably going to be dictated by whatever dumb decisions the music industry at large make next, and very little to do with which company has the most cash on hand.

It seems to me that every single iPhone iteration, a lot of people come out of the woodwork saying "there's no new innovation in this" and "it's barely any upgrade at all" and other things of that ilk. This one is no different.

Does the second camera do anything than provide a 2x optical zoom? I assume there are some processing tricks it also uses it for

This one is no different. Yea, but a lot of that is Android models rushing to provide hastily put together and poor quality functionality just to be first and iPhone actually meeting expectations later on. I had a Samsung phone as a work phone briefly not too long ago, dropped it in a few inches of water for maybe a few seconds and it was malfunctioning instantly. What good is claiming you've done something first when it's garbage?

Something I read afterwards is that they're dropping the price of a screen replacement with AppleCare+ to just $29 for all models. Wonder if that finally makes it worth it.

T-Mobile is going to be giving 32gb 7s for free to anyone trading in an iPhone 6 or higher. You can pay extra to go with a higher model. With 2 year payment plan which they will credit every month. 5, 5c, se, and 5s also quality but will require $250. If you cancel before two years you give the phone back or pay the remaining balance.

Its eligible for anyone whether or not they are a tmobile customer (but you have to become a tmobile customer for 2 years to fully take advantage of the deal.) https://newsroom.t-mobile.com/news-...als+LLC&irgwc=1 I know it says "up to $650" but i think thats because if you cancel before the 2 years you dont get the full amount. Its been confirmed you will basically get a $27 credit every month for 2 years for your trade in which will cancel out the $27 charge for a 32gb iphone 7.

The camera three iterations ago was more than I could ever need from a phone. I don't get this weird obsession with imperceptible camera improvements every generation. If I wanted a better camera than my phone (I don't) I'd go out and buy a real camera. It's been more than enough for dumb vacation selfies and pictures of food for years.

Or would it need to be a real weird set of headphones that you end up plugging your power cord into? Daisy chain protocol means that you can add another cable and achieve throughput if the device has a supported female input. In order for a dongle to have multiple female pieces, it would have to be engineered such that it would have to take data and feed it back up and through the original device and into the main port on the iPhone because the dongle itself cannot aggregate it (hub protocol). There most likely thing we'll see is a headphone with a female lightning input on both sides and which comes with a male to male cable so you can rearrange it as you please and also plug in a charging cable into the unused port.

So it sounds like the iOS 10 GM is actually 10.0.1 and the version of 10.0.1 that was released today is actually a beta and therefore you can't load it on your phone unless you have a Dev account or XCode8 or some poo poo like that. I always like updating early, but if I have to do crazy poo poo to do so I guess I'll just wait for the actual release.

Is that really a big enough part of the iPhone market to merit half the keynote time for every iPhone in the last several years? I doubt there's that many people who would be able to recognize the difference between a photo shot with the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6s. I'm not particularly bent out of shape over it or anything, it just seems weird they push that feature so hard every year.
