Am I wrong or is iPhone 15 usb-c is usb2 just with a different connector. Seems to me like only the pro is getting usb3 even though usb3 was first released in like 2008.
Update: confirmed in iPhone specs page.

#32USB 2.0 on the 15 is kind of a joke considering it came out in April of 2000. 60hz, USB 2.0, getting a bit dated. I know a bunch of people will excuse it but at that price I think it's not ideal.
Oh and RIP 13 Mini, you'll be my phone until I can't use it anymore I suppose.

#33I'll need to buy new AirPods too, unless I want to carry a lightning cable around too. Or just always use wireless charging with them.
I've been using mostly wireless charging with my current phones; and watch (you have to there) mainly because the lightning port would usually be the first thing to die.
I wonder if they'll sell cases alone for existing AirPods.

#34These presentations look like something straight out of some dystopian corporate hellscape fiction.
I could feel my social credit score rising with each nod in agreement, as the UN SDG AAA+ rated company, with WEF endorsement, told me how my consumerist lifestyle will not affect the global boiling.

#35These guys are insane. Every year the bloody product looks great (EDIT: not visually/aesthetically, looks like its got great features) and then the next year it somehow is even better. Satellite connectivity is fantastic. I believe T-mobile is bringing some of that too. If we get satellite backup calling or satellite data in the coming years it will be incredible. I think I'll wait another year before I upgrade my iP…
At the end of everyone is a line "this is the best _____ we've ever made". well, duh. it would be insane to make something worse than the previous version.

#36IMO, this was a pretty weak announcement. They spent so long talking about environmental stuff, like getting rid of leather, that it felt like they were trying to pad the presentation to reach a reasonable length. There were a few new things (more optical zoom, slightly smaller bezels), but these were all leaked in advance. I was also disappointed to hear that the satellite stuff is limited to 2 years. Is it going to…
> They spent so long talking about environmental stuff, like getting rid of leather
which reminds me, i need to buy extra leather cases.
in any case, this is what happens when you've got nothing to present.

#37Do we still care about the health and pay of the laborers in the factories making these things?

If you have AirPods with wireless charging, you can charge them off your iPhone, it sounds like.
But I'll be carrying around a USB-A to Lightning cord when I'm traveling anyway, since hotels/airplanes/airports are still on USB-A.
EDIT: Looks like I was confused by this brief description, and they were just saying that you can plug the peripherals into the iPhone. NBD.

#39Super sad new OS versions were not released

These were peaceful. The Vision Pro announcement earlier this year was basically a black mirror episode.
