Apple’s first shipment of final iPhone 12 units is going out to distributers on October 5th
The shipment includes:
iPhone 12 mini 5.4
(Definitely the final marketing name)
-64/128/256
iPhone 12 6.1
-64/128/256
Event on October 13, as I mentioned before.
The iPhone 12 Pro feels so unreal.
It’s hard to believe that Apple made the phone look and feel EXACTLY how I wanted for years.
It feels nostalgic, it feels new, it feels premium.
I don’t care about a smaller notch or 120hz. Sometimes, just a great design is worth the upgrade.
New, adjusted Apple dates!

Okay, guys. Last tweet of the night. 👇
My sources are not budging or changing their mind.
They’re still telling me that Apple Watch and iPad Air are coming tomorrow via press release.
See you all in the morning to find out! 👋🤗
Apple press release is currently scheduled for Tuesday (September 8) at 9:00am EST — though, I should note that it’s not locked in until the press has been briefed, day of.
I’ll tweet early that morning to update you if it changes.
The internet: “Apple is always YEARS behind the competition!”
Apple: *Adds 5G to all iPhones while maintaining cost, knowing that most people keep their iPhone for 2-3 years*
The internet: “THAT’S USELESS! There’s no coverage yet! It’s too early for 5G!”
Even if the product you’re excited about isn’t coming at the next event, it’s important to remember that it’s not Apple’s fault.
They didn’t promise anything. In fact, YOU’RE not even supposed to know about them yet 😂
Leaks are fun, but don’t let them set your expectations.
Twitter, bookmark this tweet.
If the iPhone ever, and I mean EVER ships with USB-C, I will shave off my eyebrows.
I’LL SHAVE MY EYEBROWS AND MY HEAD 🧑🏻🦲
If you think “AirPods” is a weird name for over-ear headphones:
In Apple land, “Pod” = music
iPod
EarPod
HomePod
“Air” = wireless
AirPlay
AirDrop
AirPort
AirPods.

Again. iPhones. No.
America,
We did our part. We sent millions of comments to the FCC. We sent millions of calls to our state representatives. We protested.
We let our voices be heard.
Our voices we're ignored.
Today, we didn't fail democracy.
Our government failed the people.
#NetNeutrality
Fun fact:
The media / reviewers that get the iPhone early for videos don’t actually get to keep them.
They all have to sign a loaner contract prior to receiving their units, agreeing to give the device(s) back undamaged.
In the end, Apple STILL makes them buy their own 😂
twitter has been relevant for 17 years. the name, the logo — iconic, and the only valuable part left.
he didn’t build it. he can’t take credit for it. burying the brand and slapping his “X” on it makes it his.
it’s just ego. elon gonna elon.
you may shit on me below 👇
I’m told that 120hz not being implemented in iPhone 12 Pro is 100% about battery life.
Hardware was more than capable — but it just eats through battery, and 5G drains enough battery by itself.
It was basically a choice between 120hz or 5G, and they picked 5G. Rightfully so.
so.. uh.. AirPods Pro 2 are low-key one of the best apple products ever
- sound is more balanced and open
- less cabin pressure effect
- noise cancellation is fantastic
- transparency mode is unmatched
- spatial audio 🤯
literally twice as good as the originals in every way 👏
Breakdown of Vision Pro costs, according to YouTuber:
Hardware — $1,542 👎
A decade+ of R&D — $0 🎉
Software development — $0 🎉
Labor costs — $0 🎉
Marketing — $0 🎉

my iPhone 14 Pro thoughts:
if you’re coming from a 12 Pro or 13 Pro, the 14 Pro is nothing but a nice luxury.
coming from anything older or a non-pro device? then it’s an upgrade.
if the dynamic island is worth the price for you, go for it! it’s very cute.
and that’s kinda it
