    Camera, finally something important and at least there’s upgrades. That new main sensor better sort out the awful portrait mode the 11 has.

    Same on my end. It's three years now since I purchased the X so would usually upgrade now or would have done so already.

    I'm definitely seriously tempted but I'm not feeling that 'must have' wow factor that I had many times before.

    Exactly my feelings, I know I'd get the benefits of 3 generations of upgrades, but I wouldn't be exited like I have been with previous iPhones.

    If they haven't mentioned USB-C yet there is zero chance this iPhone won't have lightening is there? :(

    Never had an iPhone before, and was seriously considering moving from android - have an iPad pro and macbook pro and they are all USB-C as has basically everything else I own - am I being ridiculous to be this put off by having to deal with lightening? :/

    Mark Gurman was talking about the removal of the charging port on Twitter earlier. Don't know if he was talking about today or next-gen though.

    They need to bump the max charging speed on the iPhone. 15W still ins't great. Better than 7.5W I suppose.

    Until they crack ultra fast wireless charging that would be a pain

    On the roof haha. Apple really pushed the quality of this.

    Climate talk = no more charger and EarPods confirmed.

    Did he say 15W wireless charging? Is that not slow compared to the competition?

    I liked the way the cases can be held on with the magnets though.

    Lisa forgot to remind us that removing these items also reduces costs :-P

    I'll be honest and say I don't even take the accessories out of the box anymore. But I can see people kicking up a big fuss over this for months.

    Currently the max is 7.5W. I’m dubious about this. Are they adding the watch portion of the foldable thing to this figure?

    People are going to criticise Apple for the charger & headphones but I think it's a good call and it will be followed by other phone companies who will escape criticism like when the headphone port was removed.

    The 11 will probably be discontinued.

    Are the 12 and 12 mini 60Hz? I don’t recall them mention anything other than the resolution.

    Thought that iPhone mini was going to be some "one more thing" type announcement.

    Max on iPhone is 7.5W but Samsung, One Plus and a good few others are quicker I think.

    I just pop my P30 Pro down at night when I'm going to bed so speed isn't that necessary but it would be very handy to get a quick boost during the day from time to time.
