smoobles posted:I'm trying to see the selling point of force touch but no real world applications come to mind... What are you force touch enthusiasts looking forward to? It's just really quite cool. Have you felt it on the newest MacBook yet? It's an eerie and unique feeling to feel a button when there is no button.

Froist posted:The "force touch" on the phones will just be varying levels of pressure resulting in different actions, not haptic feedback from the display. NYT posted:So, theoretically on an iPhone, you’ll be able to get to different software features depending on how hard you press down on the screen. Then with haptic feedback you will “feel” a physical response to touching those virtual buttons. The NYT is suggesting that haptic feedback will be there "theoretically." We will see in a half hour. http://www.nytimes.com/live/apple-event/

Happy Noodle Boy posted:Nothing about this is making me go "I need to upgrade" Same here, nothing compelling so far and I don't see much forthcoming. Disappointing. Not happy about my investment in AAPL either. It's down about 1.5% today so far.

Sounds like the "Hey Siri" always-on is 6S-only and is not included in iOS9.

milkaxor posted:edit: my questions have been answered - http://www.apple.com/shop/iphone/iphone-upgrade-program "You’re even free to choose the carrier and rate plan that work for you." typo, first one i've seen on apple.com RUSHED To someone that asked what happens if you decide you don't want a new phone after a year, this plan requires a 2-year agreement. And it starts at just over $32 a month. So it's really a deal that starts at a minimum of $777.84 for 2 years, plus tax. Michael Scott fucked around with this message at 21:40 on Sep 9, 2015 |

Mattavist posted:No, work is correct. The carrier and rate plan work for you. It sound super incorrect. Can we get a confirmation on this? Choose a carrier and rate plan that work for you? Choose a carrier and rate plan that works for you?

EL BROMANCE posted:I did a phone lease before and hated it, mainly because they lost my phone when I returned it and gave me grief for months (carrier, not apple). Again, technical nitpick, but the carrier plans are not a lease, but instead a 0% APR purchase plan, and you own the phone, and you do eventually owe the entire amount on the device unless you take advantage of their switching options. Apple's is more nebulous, but I am guessing you still own the device in that case. You'll pay the entire amount on it over 2 years, and can get a new phone after 1 year for no extra fee. Kinda rad.

What happens after the end of the 24th month, with your 2nd iphone? Do you owe any more money?

Aphrodite posted:If all you're doing is changing your plan with the same carrier, you keep the same number. It's a federal requirement in many cases to be able to keep your number: https://www.fcc.gov/guides/portability-keeping-your-phone-number-when-changing-service-providers

I bought a Windows ultrabook (ASUS UX303) and I've been very happy with it. I think it was $900. There are definitely most-recent-MacBook competitors at a deep discount over Apple's offerings.
