    Gotta get a few new cords anyway so that’s part of the reason I was asking. Monoprice seems to have just about any cord you would ever need.

    Anyone get custom ear tips for the Pro's? None of them fit in my right ear hole very well.

    thanks, I lost one of my AirPods a while back, buy I’ve had them for over 2 years & the remaining one doesn’t last too long on a full charge anyway so I was gonna order the Pros....the silicone ear tips were the only thing worrying me about them

    What new features should we expect from the series 6 Apple Watch next week? Should I wait for that or pull the trigger on a 5 when the price drops?

    The funny thing is, I hurt my thumb and index finger on my left hand pretty bad about a month ago and have had bandages on the both of them.

    1. I've grown to like swipe texting quite a bit.
    2. only having 1 finger to unlock my phone with has been a pain

    I'm just TMB through and through; I don't like change

    They should mention their 5g phones. It would be more useful if you've got newer antennas/towers for 5g coverage where you live

    I need to upgrade my older iPad Air. Typically use a laptop for work, but would like the pen option as well as faster/more responsive processor. Is it worth the $ to go to a pro from the Air? Would be the smaller size pro if so as the bigger one is the same as a laptop and not very stashable for travel, etc.

    Also, wait on new ones to come out? Any intel on changes?

    Wore them working out 5x a week for that entire time and I'm a heavy sweater.

    The battery life just got to the point I couldn't use them for more than an hour or two without needing a charge.

    Rumor is they're increasing the screen size on the new Airs. I'm not sure on the pencil use yet. Should get all the details in next week's conference, but I'm betting upgrading to the Pro won't be necessary for what you want.

    If you do a workout initiated on the Apple Watch, shouldn't that move your exercise ring?

    It did when I had the 4 but it won't on the 5 I have now.

    Bases it on your heart rate, I think. Has to be a workout that pushes your heart rate to cardio levels. Like a 30-minute walk that you initiate on your watch won't fill the ring.

    Just cracked my screen on my X. Dope. I have to get this fixed in order to trade in for any value right? And are they strict on third party repair?

    Verizon took a pretty badly cracked 7 Plus as trade for promo purposes when I switched to XS. I didn’t get cash off, just a general save whatever when you trade up.

    Are they going to have a separate event for the phones closer to October? I would think it would make sense to have a single event which would be larger and gather more attention than two separate events. But what do I know.

    Separate. iPhone can easily be a standalone event plus being virtual makes that logistically easy.

    I agree it’s easy logistically, but for people like me, I am primarily interested in the phone details. The watch and other products don’t interest me much. So why not include the phone discussion so I watch the entire thing rather than skipping this session to wait for the phone announcement. I just think they would get more views combining them and leveraging the interest in the phone.
