Even though "Android had it X years ago" is mostly a meme by now, I can't resist: The Nexus 5 had magnets that automatically aligned it on a Qi charging dock 7 years ago.
Oh! Oh! Oh! I want to play. The Palm Pre had a magnets to align wireless charging 11 years ago.
I had a Palm Pre .. didn't have the wireless charger though:

#363These transitions are insane. The production quality is honestly fantastic. Apple has perfected the art of virtual keynotes.
Do we know what program they use for their presentations?

#364Zero photos where you can actually see how thick the bezels are on the 12 Pro's product page. Guess it's safe to assume it'll be pretty disappointing considering how much they talked about thinner bezels.
…isn't there one the moment you scroll down?
Conveniently the image on the display has a black background so you can't make out the bezels. Or maybe, we're being served different pages.

#365just the way they present stuff like the ceramics or chips is very nice, it makes it feel futuristic even when the actual in development tech has already advanced years past this point

At a certain point, does the bezel thickness matter anymore? Surely not to me.
It matters to me, in the sense that I prefer to have some bezel left so I can actually hold onto the phone without accidentally pressing things on the screen.

Here's an iPhone 5 advertisement about that exact feature. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Af0gtsjfy7E
I think I'm the only person who likes iOS's reachability gesture. The only annoying thing about it is sometimes it will trigger touchUpInside for buttons along the bottom of the screen, navigating me away from the screen I was on.
IMO the reachability gesture improves about 20% of situations where one more tap is required, and for all the other situations I find I need more than one tap.

#368Very impressive technology: With those 4GB per second download speeds I can use up my entire month of data in 250 milliseconds. On a more serious note: what technology advancements will there be in the next 10-20 years that actually make 5G technology useful?
Wirth's Law, applied to networks? Ad-filled javascript bundles will expand to take up as much bandwidth as you give them
Just looking at "mobile-optimized" web pages from now compared to a few years ago proves this in spades.

#369I wonder what the environmental impact of all the new adaptors that customers will need to buy is.
A lot less than buying a new phone in the first place. That's where you take the environmental hit. If you're going to fix the environment, implement the fixes that give the biggest bang for the buck. If you don't buy a new phone, you don't need to worry about buying new adapters.
