Apple's 2019 iPhone Event....*yawn....sticks with iPhone 7*

@MrFresh Phones are plateauing? Certainly it's easy to get a decent experience on a phone these days!

@33MHz I've been an Apple fanboy since '88, but with the features they are continuing to offer over years make me increasingly a fan of planned obsolescence... #ifaintbroke ....

@33MHz I haven't felt the excitement of Apple Innovation since the first iPhone. Using Apple products in the 90's was sooo exciting, just not really feeling that anymore.

@MrFresh You're echoing some of what @morrick has said.
664534
@morrick posted a great blog post on that topic, one which I told him I am in full agreement with. //@33MHz

@MrFresh yeah probably more of the same but more and faster 😆 And they made a video, do you want to see it 😂?

@33MHz you can actually do bullshit bingo for these events.
“We can’t wait to see what you do with it”
“Install base of latest iOS is xx%, compare that to the other guys”
“It’s the best iPhone we ever made”

@MrFresh using an iPhone 8+ myself. Before that one I had a 6 (no S or +). Might get a new one this year because my wife wants to get my 8+ to upgrade her 6s+. Not sure if I want any X models. Maybe if the new ones have touchID again. Not a fan of faceID

@ludolphus From an article title I glanced at yesterday, TouchID is continuing (which I've never used). I refuse to use FaceID. I went from a 6 (my wife and daughter have the 6S) to a 7 about two years ago - still works fine.

@ludolphus I'm actually one in the minority that likes the size of the iPhone 4S still (the current SE models).
664568
@MrFresh I’m sure @blumenkraft is your friend in this. I also liked the squared design of those better than the current slippery rounded design. Square is probably also more practical for stuff that’s inside
664572
@ludolphus Agreed. I like the smaller form factor, easy to slip into my back pocket of shirt pocket - speaking of the latter, just remembered this funnie, LOL! https://twitter.com/tonybakercomedy/status/1150232084801380353?s=21 // @blumenkraft

@MrFresh @ludolphus @blumenkraft @mandy Yep, I'm there with you. My #Blackberry Q10 is a nice size. ;)
664615
@33MHz I have a Blackberry Curve, same form factor, size. @mandy @blumenkraft @ludolphus
664618
@33MHz I have a Nexus 5 as one of my backups and it’s a great size for me. I just wish companies create smaller phones that work.

@MrFresh I also prefer the smallest phone possible, and sadly I needed a new phone just after the SE became very difficult to acquire. My phone is way too big.
664593
@mandy I say this wholeheartedly (and agree with you), if the Motorola Razr is actually re-released, but with a DECENT price point, I'd hop on it immediately. I really loved everything about it.
664595
@ludolphus Also FaceID is a huge boon for law enforcement so not a fan either.

664621
@joe yeah. TouchID similar. Pin is best in that case.

/@MrFresh
664623
@ludolphus Alphanumeric password is best.

/@MrFresh
664624
@joe yeah I meant anything but touch and Face ID

664626
@joe What Joe said..it's inevitable I'm sure but the less I HAVE to use it the better. @ludolphus
