iPad Air w/ Mini-LED is NO MORE at Apple Event! Plus, iPad mini & iPhone updates 

It would be cool to see them go all in on the Mini with 120Hz, mini-led, Face ID, M-series chip. Just because it’s small doesn’t mean they have to make it less capable

An iPad mini Pro would be a dream device for many.

iPhones are so good nowadays, I’m still rocking my iPhone 13 Pro Max, looks and works like new. Battery capacity 84%

No gonna lie all I want in an update mini upgrade is an upgraded display with 120hz and maybe smaller bezels. I didn't need more power or better cameras or new colors so anything else would not entice me to upgrade

Hi Brian , great video as usual. I would like to see a big improvement with Siri. Also, how is that Vision Pro working out for you? You liking it

I need to get a selfie with you one day I love your channel, been watching for like a decade now. Keep up the good stuff man!

Really curious how the lineup shakes up, I want one but worth waiting. I’m not spending a lot and not get a 90-120hz, mainly for Digital Art so I don’t care too much for local dimming. it would be a nice gesture to bless the Air as well with a OLED instead of miniLED, even at 60hz the persistence blur would be improved.

Love your work

I know they'll probably never do these but I need an option for a back button, split-screen multitasking, and an entry-level phone with a large screen.

IPad Air with Mini LED would be sick. 75% of what I used an iPad for was just watching content lol

WE NEED AN IPAD MINI ! I PAD MINI ! IPAD MINI !

I still use my iPad Pro from 2019? It works great!

I didn’t see or hear you talk about the camera location or Face ID on the new iPad Air.

iPad mini with mini led and 120hz. That’s all we want!!!

any news on the iPad Pro 11”? It hasn’t change since 2018. at least the iPad Pro 12.9 got a mini led screen, but the 11” only gets chip upgrades.

I want a Brian tong bong!!! I’m going to make it😂

I’m holding off until they release a new mini. A better display, Face ID and of course better performance. Current battery life is great still and MagSafe would be fantastic but I doubt it

Dynamic Island, always on, and USBC were selling points for me to get the 15. What would make me personally upgrade from here is Apple Pencil support

Wait they had mini LED on 14th and 16 inch macbook so why was it difficult to get that on iPad.

Been thinking about getting a mini 6 but if the 7 comes out soon then the price of the 6 will drop and that’s when I’ll probably get one.

More customization! Make each iPhone look unique!

I still have my 12 pro max and runs like it’s new there’s no new feature I need on the iPhones and people don’t want to keep there bill high from a new phone every year with no new features. This year I hope they give us a bigger screen and oled screen

If you enjoy mini LED, just get a refurbished 12.9 M2 iPad Pro a month from now. There will be a price drop once the new iPad Pros come out and you get a functional 128GB model unlike Airs that start with a paltry 64GB storage. (Edit: but mini LED is just not worth it... it's a stop gap measure to allow Apple enough time to fine tune the dual stack OLED)

iPad Production has fully moved to Vietnam from China. Apple isn’t just launching a new iPad here, they had to engineer an entire new production line and tooling processes for it.

I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max and it still works great! The only things tempting me to upgrade is the refresh rate and usbc. Also I believe Apple needs to finally put at least a 90hz screen on the lower models to close the gap between their models. Maybe that’ll help sales in China who knows. Or maybe launch the SE models alongside the other models. Just so people have a bigger selection of iPhones when buying a phone.

Can we get an Apple power Beats Pro update?

For the new iPhone, some kind of non-intrusive biometric reader. Not sure what that is just yet but it must go beyond an in-screen fingerprint reader (although that would be nice too). Like maybe some sort of non-contact bio reader that can see your DNA or something like that. IOW, turn biometric security into a 'lean back' experience rather than a 'lean forward' experience like face ID is. BTW. I got the Laifen Wave tooth brush and love it. Hopefully it will result in less cleaning time at the dentist.

the jelly scroll issue with the iPad mini 6 was such a petty complaint. I agree they can improve things. but no way it's getting 120 refresh rate or an OLED panel. thats only going to the Pro models. a Mini LED on the 12.9 Air makes a ton of sense though

I only update iPhones when they upgrade properly cameras - their processors are great already - I wish they pay more attention to cameras - apple could easily add pro version to camera app with settings like colour custom setups …making it like fuji x100. LiDar is also great feature but they don’t support it enough with their own app. Imagine if you could scan your rooms, spaces, things on phone ( no need to send that data anywhere to be processed) and then share it and view it in 3d - that would be cool.

Electric toothbrushes need round brushheads. Rectangular ones are not good for cleaning thoroughly.

Wireless charging from ipad to iphone+iwatch+airpods. Build a wireless charging pad for apple devices into the rear of the ipad or the magic keyboard case. I would love to plug in one device and charge all my apple gear at once.

I anticipate iPad mini 7 to be more expensive, if not cancelled. So, I recommend buying the current mini 6 soon.

2:49-Not a paid actress!😅👍 Im VERY much looking forward to the new large iPad Pro. Going to upgrade on launch day from my 2018! Which I had also bought on launch day in 2018.

I would love to see 120hz Ipad mini i would buy that.

I think one areas of improvement suggestion is to rethink simplicity, which use to make Apple products and software so distinctive. Perhaps AI will simplify user interface commands. Regardless, I keep hearing complaints from friends on topics like, how do you get the camera flash to stay on? Oh, you go here and then here, and then click this. That’s where I think Apply has gotten too ‘pro friendly’. 😅 Let’s hope they can use AI to ‘flatten’ the command options into more contextual prompts and steps. Great video btw!

I have a 15 Pro Max(my first iphone ever) and also a s24+. I wasn't even planning to get the s24+ but Samsung always has ridiculously good trade in deals. I'm sure more people would upgrade if similar deals would be offered by Apple. Also, Samsung's AI is pretty cool. I read a lot of articles online and I like using the "summary" AI feature that the S24 has. The real time phone translations also help since I have bilingual clients due to the nature of my work. Being a newer iphone user, I almost never use Siri for anything other than setting reminders and alarms.

Apple is slipping it’s no secret . Lets hope they can get there shit together because Siri is an absolute hot mess .

Why have this event at all then ???

Here are my million dollar ideas: 1) iPad shd be able to be used as a monitor when the iPhone camera app is open, and 2) the iPhone shd be able to work as a full screen keyboard for the iPad in landscape orientation (leaving the iPad full screen for work.) Good video, anyone can bitch, but good ideas are hard. Always appreciate your takes on these Apple subjects. I still want an Apple 4K- 8k projector that works with the Apple Home Pod speakers.

I take what ross young and mark gurman say with bags of salt. They keep changing their predictions.

Apple should put that LED logo on the back of the phone like they have on the Mac book give the phones a different look

I would love to see a foldable iPhone as well as a transparent iPhone. In addition, incorporating AI technology into the iPhone would be awesome. Until then, I’ll stick with my iPhone 14 Plus, unless something happens to it.

I think phones have matured a lot. It’s now similar to buying a laptop or an iPad. My iPad Pro 11 which I got in 2019 is still going strong. It looks brand new with battery health around 93% There’s not much innovation left in this industry. We have nearly reached the final form of the smartphone. Heck even the iPhone X doesn’t look a generation apart when compared to the 15 series. I think VR/AR is the industry with the maximum potential for innovation now

As for iPhone, I’d like to see it work flawlessly. No more pocket dials. Also, everyone is fed up with Siri. They are behind the curve in AI. Ecosystem needs to be more cohesive. It is now good but not great. As for new ideas, I do not work for Apple. I think it was Jobs who said they should tell me what I want.

I'm ready to graduate from slow budget Android tablets, but regular iPads are way too big for my needs. I'm holding out for a new mini.

While its not a pro-consumer move, skipping out on mini led for ipad airs is absolutely fine. Yes oleds and mini led does make for better watching experience, which is basically all that people use these devices for. But i honestly dont think enough ppl mind it/notice the difference when binging a series or watching it in a pitch black room but with max brightness. Now apple should honestly make all their products include oled seeing as how every other tablet competitor does but thats not the apple way so we'll get it when we get it. My real question is how far along is micro led to becoming a viable consumer tech in phones/laptops/watches. Cause thats what apple will probably want in pro products so that the mid tier options can fully use oled.

phone camera will never be comparable to a professional camera. They should focus on making phones smaller, lighter, and cheaper again.

I'd like better Zoom for the camera. Now there is "higher" zoom but actually it's not. The iPhone just crops an existing photo then blows it up and calls it Zoom.

Just fking give ipad mini led with 120hz with dual or quad speakers baam

Whatever Apple does in the AI feature space, it has to be accessible to average folks who aren’t tech enthusiasts and aren’t interested in AI for the sake of AI. Fortunately it’s exactly that kind of approach to tech that Apple shines at. Maybe their AI won’t be as powerful but it will almost certainly be more useful to more people than what the first movers have shown us so far.

Mini Discrimination! 😅 I love my mini. Ive tried both iPad Pro sizes, iPad Air. I take my mini everywhere that I can.. it's time for an upgrade.. but it still performs great.. I just want it 🥲

why Brian licking that iPhone ? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

The biggest problem is no SIM card slot people don't like using eSims. I stopped buying new iPhone because of that.

Best part about a new iPad release is that the current ones will probably get cheaper.

Cant wait, apple is bringing new phone colors this year and the ability to move app icons around on the Home Screen. lol 😂

We are so over the standard LCD displays🙄

I don’t thin ai is that high in demand tbh

I like what you said in the last portion of the video. People in the comments can complain all day…but don’t seem to use their brains to come up with anything other than “I need more battery life” 😅

We need a flip iphone or a foldable iphone 🤔

Dude the iPad. Aye!!! 😳 god…

IPAD Mini… I need a new iPad mini. My iPad mini is very old.

Only one I care about is a newer, Pro-like Mini

Yes, iPad mini, NOW...with pro motion plz.

The mini doesn’t need M2 it can have the current iPhone processor. USB-C is a must.

I would like to see Apple Split itself up. They need to focus more on their core business. They could do smaller divisions and focus more on what they do. Eg. Apple Inc. Apple hardware. Apple software. Apple laptops. iPhone. Apple silicone. This would all them to innovate more and grow the business by division and grow more.

Still waiting…….. ❤❤❤

I hope they have a ipad pro ultra !

Anyone that actually think iPad Air with mini led is nuts considering Apple marketing and line of products. Mini led is their premium feature that’s only available for their most expensive iPad for only 1 year/gen. m1 was a 3-4 years old tech to be on iPad Air, and that was already surprising.

Honestly I didn't really care for the mini led because of the glooming issue

The combination of massive inflation of necessity items like motor fuel and groceries here in the USA and the Chinese government banning government officials from using iPhones is killing iPhone sales around the world. We might be able to score some major deals on the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus models very soon just to clear out backing up inventory. I think the somewhat bad experience with mini LED displays explain why Apple decided against using them on the rumore 12.9" iPad Air.

I just think nowadays people don’t have the disposable cash to keep purchasing new phones

SD card for iphone, i think that will make it more appealing

In terms of an iPad mini display: 120 Htz is more a "PRO" feature than a feature for "mini" devices Not to mention 120 Htz would increase the price of the mini

Foldable ! Better productivity! Enhanced AI. Similar to LPU/ LLM Groq / Sora etc capabilities Have Siri to be interactive like Groq

AI isn’t going to entice my mom to upgrade though. I don’t think folks are ever going to cycle through phones as fast. A combo phone iPad mini would get lots to upgrade. But overall phones have reached peak market. Apples growing services could be a saving grace to transition to the future.

What if the next iPad mini was foldable? It could allow Apple to explore foldable with a “niche” but well established device. Allowing Apple to obtain results of wear and tear on foldable equipment without worrying about hurting the Apple brand nor the bottom line.

I want a mini with an oled! Ugh

I want ability to schedule text and emails. If you running small business or a manager you want to respect your workers but don’t want to loose some important task that should be taken care first thing Monday.

Hear me out. I'm not a fan of the foldable phones but love the form factor when they are unfolded. How about an ipad mini pro that includes cellular service. Phone calls and text to other platforms like the iPhone. I'd drop samsung in a heart beat.

APPLE needs to make a BEZEL-LESS phone with out a NOTCH or DYNAMIC ISLAND and make the new phone in the IPHONE 7/Pro design.

I love the iPhone 15, the best phone on the market.

Funny everybody wants something new! I still use a airport express from 2011. Why? because it uses airplay1 which acutally streams from my iphone 13 mini apple music in full CD quality, 16/44. Airplay2 on new apple products streams in 256 bit. So, just because something is old, doesn't mean its obsolete. I wish Apple would get into networking again. Yup old boomer here, but back in the the day you used a apple Airport to hookup your printer( back then no wirless printers) and make it wireless. And yes you could use it with windows back then.

7:14 I don’t think people care just a quantum as much about ai as companies talk about. People want better cameras, better batteries and better prizes

Since Apple has nothing left to innovate I have few ideas: -let’s try to make the pro max’s lighter so it feels like ur holding a paper and not paperweight -adding solar charging capabilities I am sure it will save many lives -aesthetically the bezels shouldn’t exist in 2024 , front part should be only one piece of glass I am sure it will happen by 3031

Rumors on top of other measurebators rumors.

Maybe I’m old but I don’t need any other features. I like the camera getting better but otherwise don’t really care 😂

If these are Retina displays does it really matter? Thing is normals jut want something that works so why purchase a new Apple iPhone. The ones we have no just work. At one point I was on the upgrade program. Thing was every year I was hit with full Washington State sales tax for full value of the iPhone. Not just tax on the payment each month. So why am I going to pay 24 months full price of the iPhone every year? So stopped doing that.

If Apple is in fact, launching an AI feature, I’m hoping that they would do something for visually impaired people like myself, which would be awesome. Like letting me know what’s around me wherever I go.

The more rumors I read, the more I think the new iPad Air (6. Gen.) is already here. So let's think about it: no OLED, display has probably 600 Nits, base model expected to start with 128 GB instead of 64 GB, maybe 11" display instead of 10,9", for sure an M2 chip (as the Pro will get the M3), more or less the same design (except the colors) etc. Or in other words - the iPad Air 2024 is basically the 11" iPad Pro 2022 with some minor design tweaks and Touch ID instead of Face ID. If you consider buying an iPad Air 2024 I honestly think you could as well just buy an 11" iPad Pro 2022. 🤔

Siri should at least be bilingual by now

Biggest improvement I want is AI Siri

I want a flush camera design back

For gods sake I want a phone not a camera since the iPhone 12 it’s been all about the camera updates are good but it’s been the only change

🔥🔥can’t wait long overdue that’s a sick toothbrush thanks to you know it’s on my radar anyway can’t wait for a more immersive larger ipad 14” with more usb c ports and for sure high fidelity audio streaming once in for all already cmon Apple no bitching here lol

Gosh, a rumor was wrong, calling into question the entire Apple rumor ecosystem? Shocking.

The iPhone market has very much matured. Also, I don't want AI on my phone if it means google now owns me.

Thunderbolt 5 products are reportedly hitting the market late 2024. When do you think Apple will include it in their product lineup?

wacom vs apple 😂

This is all speculation until the event comes out than we will know

I want new AirPods Max
