So I went by the apple sstore today expecting the iPhone 6 XL to feel like a sheet of paper, but it felt very solid, much more so than my galaxy s3. I think the bending fears are massively overblown and affects the 10% of idiots that wear a 700 dollar phone without a protective case.

Don't see the fascination with keeping up to date with phones any more like anything I'd want to actually use and then some has been covered years ago

At this point it's like

"BRAND NEW KEYBOARD TOUCHSCREEN FUNCTION"

"SEE MESSAGES LIKE NEVER BEFORE WITH A DOUBLE NOTIFICATION"

"NEW ULTRA GLASS SCREEN 5% CLEARER THAN NORMAL GLASS"

"VOICE CONTROLS NOW LET YOU CONTROL YOUR PHONE... BY WHISPERING."

pretty much only thing worth updating for is better battery life at this point and for the sake of the phone staying quick enough to handle new software updates

The iPad Air 2 is the world's thinnest tablet

Spoiler:

he iPad Air 2 is an even thinner version of the company's full-sized iOS tablet—6.1mm thick, to be exact. Boasted as the "world's thinnest tablet," the Air 2 is 18-percent thinner than last year's model. The tablet now features a laminated screen and is 56-percent less reflective for easier use outdoors. Apple also claims that the device will have a 10-hour battery life.

As expected, the A8X chip, the same found in the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, will be in the new iPad Air. An 8-megapixel iSight camera capable of 1080p and slow-motion video, burst photos, and Timelapse, will be found on back. Up front will be an updated FaceTime HD camera with improved face detection as well as HDR photos and video capabilities. Apple's Touch ID sensor and software is also making its way from the company's phones to its tablet. 802.11AC Wi-Fi has been added to the new iPad Air.

I didn't watch the presentation, but I wouldn't be surprised if Apple advertised the low battery reminder as one of it's many energy-consuming features, that adds to it's already hilariously short battery life Laughing

Yea... Apple the champion of personal privacy. Just ignore their eagerness to share personal data collected through use with god-only-knows how many 3rd party companies and sources. No major tech (or any) company is in your corner on privacy, as soon as it's worth a few bucks to them to share.
