- AI Mention: AI was barely mentioned during the event.

- Product Improvements: There were no earth-shattering announcements; instead, we saw useful, incremental improvements over previous models of the iPhone, AirPods, and Apple Watch. This aligns with Apple's strategy of relying on gradual enhancements.

- AirPod Translation: If the translation feature in AirPods works effectively, it could significantly impact user experience, as many previous attempts have failed.

- iPhone Air: The iPhone Air is an intriguing product. Its success will largely depend on battery life compared to the Pro model. If the trade-off is minimal, it may lead to cannibalization of the Pro line. This could be seen as an initial step towards foldable technology.

- Performance Claims: While the performance claims are impressive, the question remains: what practical applications will this performance enable? Apple's stance on AI is still unclear.

- AirPod Health Features: The health features in AirPods could attract more users to Apple Health, even without an Apple Watch. This presents a service opportunity. While hypertension monitoring is a positive step, it does not replace dedicated health devices.

- Satellite Feature on Watch: The satellite feature on the Apple Watch is useful but is unlikely to drive significant demand.

- Apple Modem Expansion: Apple is expanding its use of in-house modem technology.

- N Chip for WiFi/BT: There are claims regarding the introduction of an N chip for improved WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity.

Not true. AI was mentioned n number of times. Real time language translation is an example. Linkedin gyan in most cases is just either copy paste or pure crap.

Apple hasnt been able to develop anything meaningful with AI, over the past few years.

Rather after failing in all attempts, they instead released a paper showing how most of the AI development happening is useless long term. :hehe:
 
Currently using s21fe - Was about to go for 16 plus for around 60k in the bbd sale.

Now new 17 base gets notable upgrades. ( Only battery SOT may be less than 16 plus)

I will be using a phone for 4-5 years.

1)Is it advisable to go for 17 with 20k premium or should I go with 16 plus itself.

2) I always used 128 storage android. I didn't find any issue on storage. If I get 16 plus 128gb, will be enough?
3) Will I get any difference if I go to 60 hz iphone refresh from 120 hz samsung?

So what are the best deals if anyone wants to buy an iPhone 17 Pro series, don’t see any bank offers as well this time

IN-FIN-IA seems to be the only option

Just checked with Imagine - Right now there is no update on card offers. On Apple, Amex has 5000 instant discount on iPhone 17 Pro. Imagine guy will call me in a couple of days with offer details, I will update here.

Best would be to go for the s24 ultra in this price range and it is rumored to be around 65k in bbd or even lesser. My whole family is a user of s ultras of different generation and for years - disclosure for transparency.

Not gonna lie, but genuinely thought the Apple-Google collab would be announced during yesterday's keynote.

So I was checking and it seems Japan is getting it cheapest and with VAT refund 17PM might come around 1.10
Seems my upcoming Japan trip is gonna be fun.

Since VAT refund is eligible only on producing your passport, you would have to declare the purchased item.

about the noise cancellation thing
Am I the only one who loves a bit of outside noise while wearing the bud? It's very environment-specific to me, like in the gym I want full noise cancellation, but on a short flight, travelling, or maybe at the office, I need outside noise.

Yes i can't bear anc! My ears are very sensitive and feel nausea. I have xm5 just for sound quality but never used for anc.
