Here comes the iPhone 16 lineup, and also probably the Apple Watch Series 10 and Apple Watch Ultra 3. More here:

We’re watching for watches fir the two of us, we’re using a 5 & 6, both are slightly battery deficient, and my 5 is just aging out, need the new abilities… Our iPhones are 15’s so unless there is a major change, likely ride these out for a bit…

On my watch, I’ve gone through a couple of the leather, magnetic bands, the ‘leather’ just doesn’t hold up, splits, exposing the magnets, so the latest is a rubbery one, seems OK, but if I rest my hand/wrist on the car door frame as I get in, it has stuck to the car, nearly came off! there are some other bands in a ziplock, mesh, others, but not so handy to put on, so I’ll have to see what’s available when the time comes…

Interesting times…

I have an Apple Watch 6, and I recently had its battery replaced ($99, no Applecare). So, the battery life is now as long as it was when new.

Unfortunately, the blood oxygen sensor function was turned off.

Didn’t think it was an option, to turn off, maybe reload the app? Oxy and other updates are why my 5 will be replaced, hopefully… Watching for the new watch, me.

I think he’s referring to the fact of Apple being ordered to disable it pending resolution of the patent dispute process?

Well, that’s the pits, I hadn’t paid attention, (thanks for the article) so was looking forward to having the oxygen level in whatever new one comes up next… Just pay the price, make it work, Apple!

I agree. Sometimes Apple should just play nice for the benefit of their customers. “A good customer experience is our highest priority” is supposed to be their motto, not “pinch every single penny”!

I heard no mention of the oxy sensors, I wanted that, but so far haven’t seen anything…

Maybe still tied up in court??

Well, that sux, so I’ll have to adjust my hopes a bit… I haven’t had a problem, but it was a nice handy thing. I have one of the Oxy Clips, just not as handy…

Per TidBits: _ **Apple announced via its website that we can expect macOS 15 Sequoia, iOS 18, iPadOS 18, watchOS 11, visionOS 2, tvOS 18, and HomePod Software 18 on 16 September 16, 2024.** _

I didn’t find the event that exciting. No new hardware “must have” features, except perhaps the A18 chips to enable even faster (20-30%) “Apple Intelligence™️”.

A bunch of current devices (\*) will also support AI™️ at launch, including the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max and all M1 or greater iPads and Macs.

And I’ll wait to see how much it improves things like Siri, but I dearly hope it doesn’t just end up becoming an intrusive annoyance that I wished I could disable, but can’t (this is still Apple after all).

(\*) See [This is every device that supports Apple Intelligence - 9to5Mac](https://9to5mac.com/2024/07/30/every-device-that-supports-apple-intelligence/)
