Re: Apple's new iphones
I’m very happy with this SE, though I do wish Apple would have thought better, and have gotten out a 2nd Generation SE. I know that in May of 2020 when my Telcel plan needs renewing, I’d have to go with at least a 7 or 8, but kind of hessitant to do this because of me wearing hearing aids and these not have bluetooth capabilities in them, and he lack of a headphone jack, owuld kind of make my life not too pleasant; I use my iPhone for reading, and music. Also the phone’s size of the 7 and upwards, isn’t to my taste too much. There’s nothing better than these smaller phones! Or who knows maybe Apple will have a March event, in which they’ll come out with a 2nd Generation SE? I guess we’ll just have to wait and see what happens?

Thanks Mary.

Seeing as how you’re not used to it. Smile. I don’t use it very much. It gives you immediate access to certain things and certain apps. But it’s a learning curve, and you have to get used to using it to get that access. Pretty much the only reason I use it these days is in the notification area, where you can use it to get rid of all the notifications at one go. I understand that with iOS 12, notifications are going to be group differently. So I’m hoping that the absence of 3D Touch won’t be A big deal. If I do upgrade this year it’s going to be for the XR, because the version has the T-Mobile band in the 600 range which might be very helpful to me out here in Oregon.

During the event, they mentioned that the iPhone has four stereo microphones. And that the device would record in stereo. Not sure why blind people like raising the alarm about things they don't understand or know about.

Re: Apple's new iphones
Interesting, because they do seem to mention microphone twice. That would imply two microphones I guess if I’m reading this right. I saw exactly nothing about 3D Touch however. There is a lot of stuff on that page, I might’ve missed it. But I sure didn’t see it. Also, as Jonathan noted yesterday, stereo recording was referenced under the video section, which kind of makes me wonder if it will be available as a standalone feature. I certainly hope so. I personally probably wouldn’t use it, but I’m sure plenty of people would.

Re: Apple's new iphones
I use 3D Touch for afew things, but I think that a double tap and hold with 1 finger can basically do the same as 3D touch. I will be upgrading--but to an 8 Plus. I have the 7 Plus. I'm going to hang onto touch ID as long as I can. I'm sure that Face ID will continue to improve. I have no doubt that I can use the new gestures, but there's nothing like unlocking with a finger, and the speed and reliability that gives. It's not just blind people who say this; I've heard some folks on TWIT say the same thing, just yesterday in fact when listening to the presentation, one of the commentators said he prefers touch ID over facial recognition.

Re: Apple's new iphones
Matthew, 3D Touch is being illuminated going forward, it is different than the haptic. The iPhone SR has a different type of screen, it also does not have the same cameras as the iPhone XS and 10 as Max. Thus making it the cheaper of the three options.

RE: Apple's new iphones
Hi, Gera, you are thinking of haptic touch. From what I understand it is 3d touch under a different name. Also, IMO, don’t know or understand how the sr is cheeper than the xs since the xs is 5.8 inches the xr is 6.1 and xs max is 6.5. Anyone care to explane this one? Just my thoughts.

RE: Apple's new iphones
Hi Siegard, Yeah, I'll probably end up taking the plunge and opt for the newer phone technology if I upgrade. Although, I may just see how iOS 12 performs on my SE and maybe it'll convince me to hang onto it. Either way, I've got at least a month to figure it out. I'm not on any sort of contract, so I'm pretty flexible on what I want to do. I'm curious to see what if anything Apple may put out on a future event for the iPads/Mac. Maybe if there are a new generation of airpods, I'll give those some serious consideration and cash in my BestBuy points that way to get them for free. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Thursday, September 13, 2018 12:02 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Apple's new iphones Hi Cristobal, I am not as attached to Touch Id as many on this list and I guess I'm a bit more pragmatic in that I just take it for granted that sooner or later I'll have to give it up so if I needed a new phone now (or wanted one) I wouldn't hesitate to buy one. The 3.5mm jack for me is also not a big deal especially with the new phones all supporting wireless charging, as long as I can use my headset while the phone is charging I don't care if it's plugged into a 3.5mm port or a Lightning port. I think $549 for an iPhone XR with 64Gb of storage is actually a pretty good deal, I haven't heard yet what capacity will be offered in the iPhone 7 and 8, but I assume you would be able to snatch an iPhone 7 for well below that, maybe even as low as $349 or $399? Were I thinking of upgrading from my 6S Plus this year I would want the 10S, probably not the 10S Max, but I would want the better camera and whatever else the XS has over the XR. For me the time of upgrading every 2 years are done, these phones are mature devices where there just is not as much reason to upgrade, after all, I am not buying a new laptop every year or two or even 3 or 4. There is no reason at all why an iPhone nowadays can't last for 4 years or even 5, do a battery replacement after 2 or two and a half years and you are good to go. Of course there is also the fact that most likely the iPhones in 2019 will support 5G wireless and while this will only start to roll out then, if I do plan to keep a phone for 4 years I think waiting for another year and then get a new phone makes more sense to me. In the meantime iOS 12 brings speed and efficiency to my old 6S Plus and it does everything I want it do do at this point. Once again, if you are on a plan where you pay a fair bit for the privilege to upgrade every year then go for it, but if like me you own your phone off contract and you are locked into a plan which especially for us here in Canada is a really good deal and where I would have to pay $40 or $50 more a month with one of the big carriers who then might give me a phone for less it just makes no financial sense. My wife and I can both buy a new Apple Watch 4 for the price of one iPhone XS and I think we'll enjoy them much more and if I factor in what we probably still get for our second generation watches, I have a stainless steel version and she the sport version, it will probably almost pay for one new one.

Re: Apple's new iphones
What is your source for the claim that this new haptic feedback thing is going to be usable just as 3D Touch is now? The alternative has been all over the mainstream tech press, so unless you have a really good source, I am inclined not to believe it. Also regarding stereo recording, the thought at least from Jonathan Mosen was that it might have stereo recording support with an external mic, but that it doesn’t have internal support, and the sighted person who was watching the thing with him supposedly saw confirmation of the lack of two microphones on one of the slides. So again, what is your source?

RE: Apple's new iphones
Hi Cristobal, I am not as attached to Touch Id as many on this list and I guess I'm a bit more pragmatic in that I just take it for granted that sooner or later I'll have to give it up so if I needed a new phone now (or wanted one) I wouldn't hesitate to buy one. The 3.5mm jack for me is also not a big deal especially with the new phones all supporting wireless charging, as long as I can use my headset while the phone is charging I don't care if it's plugged into a 3.5mm port or a Lightning port. I think $549 for an iPhone XR with 64Gb of storage is actually a pretty good deal, I haven't heard yet what capacity will be offered in the iPhone 7 and 8, but I assume you would be able to snatch an iPhone 7 for well below that, maybe even as low as $349 or $399? Were I thinking of upgrading from my 6S Plus this year I would want the 10S, probably not the 10S Max, but I would want the better camera and whatever else the XS has over the XR. For me the time of upgrading every 2 years are done, these phones are mature devices where there just is not as much reason to upgrade, after all, I am not buying a new laptop every year or two or even 3 or 4. There is no reason at all why an iPhone nowadays can't last for 4 years or even 5, do a battery replacement after 2 or two and a half years and you are good to go. Of course there is also the fact that most likely the iPhones in 2019 will support 5G wireless and while this will only start to roll out then, if I do plan to keep a phone for 4 years I think waiting for another year and then get a new phone makes more sense to me. In the meantime iOS 12 brings speed and efficiency to my old 6S Plus and it does everything I want it do do at this point. Once again, if you are on a plan where you pay a fair bit for the privilege to upgrade every year then go for it, but if like me you own your phone off contract and you are locked into a plan which especially for us here in Canada is a really good deal and where I would have to pay $40 or $50 more a month with one of the big carriers who then might give me a phone for less it just makes no financial sense. My wife and I can both buy a new Apple Watch 4 for the price of one iPhone XS and I think we'll enjoy them much more and if I factor in what we probably still get for our second generation watches, I have a stainless steel version and she the sport version, it will probably almost pay for one new one.

While I wasn't really expecting it, I was mildly bummed that Apple didn't introduce a more economical model or at the very least keep the headphone jack for one design if for nothing else, the emerging markets. I know bluetooth headphones are more or less ubiquitous in developed countries, but these phones are so expensive on their own, now someone in all those still growing markets will have to incur the extra cost of bluetooth headphones and or an adaptor. OH well, not my problem I guess, but still, I would have totally been game for some sort of upgraded SE. I’m such a fanboy of the touch ID/home button and find it so incredibly convenient to be able to interact with my phone without ever having to pull it out of my pocket that I don't know... I'm semi torn between snagging a cheaper 8 plus or just bite the bullet on the face ID technology and grab the XR. The XS models don’t' interest me in the least. Anyway, since the XR doesn't come out for another month, I guess I have enough time to go back and forth on what I want or maybe even convince myself to stick with my SE. It's too bad BestBuy doesn’t' sell off contract phones anymore. I could cash in some points and really try to score a deal.

After that time, say in 4 or 5 years, almost all of us will have either upgraded or be forced to upgrade to whatever Apple is then offering and I don't see them going back to Touch Id. As for 3D Touch I think it is also dead in the water and eventually will go away and it will be replaced by something better. As for smaller form factor iPhones I am not sure if Apple may not bring back a 4 to 5 inch phone if they think the demand is there. In a few years LCD screens will be a thing of the past and all iPhones will have OLED screens and a phone with a 4.7 inch OLED edge to edge display which is the same size display of an iPhone 6, 6S, 7 or 8 would probably be physically smaller than an iPhone SE. This year Apple has released the XR which has the 6.1 LCD display and apparently Apple has also managed to make the bezel much smaller so that the phone is actually not so huge (I haven't seen/compared the actual dimensions to a current Plus size phone), but like I said, OLED technology will take over and get cheaper and I somehow wouldn't be surprised is the iPhone XR is a little bit like the 5C which was a sort of one-year wonder and then Apple discontinued it. I guess we'll find out on Tuesday, September 190 which is when the 2019 Apple Event will take place and don't worry, I'll make sure to let Tim Cook know that I predicted this and ask him to make sure it is so *smile*. Until then I'll keep my trusty 6S Plus with its new battery and if Apple has figured out where they are going with all of this OLED stuff, Face Id and so on maybe I'll buy a new phone in 2019, if not I bet my 6S Plus will still get iOS 13 and serve me until September of 2020.

Re: Apple's new iphones
Really? How absurd! You think the anniversary edition would’ve been more valuable a year or two from now with its old processor at Cetera, just because newer phones didn’t have whatever special features? Hardly. Ridiculous! As much as I am not a fan of the Face ID thing, I really do not understand where you’re coming from here. And I strongly doubt Apple is going to go i mbed touch ID in their screen if they haven’t done it by now.

Re: Apple's new iphones
Hi Chris, If you have never used 3D Touch, you would be missing nothing. Seeing as how you’re not used to it. Smile. I don’t use it very much. It gives you immediate access to certain things and certain apps. But it’s a learning curve, and you have to get used to using it to get that access. Pretty much the only reason I use it these days is in the notification area, where you can use it to get rid of all the notifications at one go. I understand that with iOS 12, notifications are going to be group differently. So I’m hoping that the absence of 3D Touch won’t be A big deal. If I do upgrade this year it’s going to be for the XR, because the version has the T-Mobile band in the 600 range which might be very helpful to me out here in Oregon.

Re: Apple's new iphones
True enough, but there are other distinctions. Talkback relies even today on angle jesters which are very hard for a lot of blind people. Voiceover makes use of two and three finger gestures. Talk back does not have any three finger gestures ever. So there are still differences. And Apple has implemented jesters on the iPhone X to make up for the lack of a home button. And plenty of blind people are using them successfully.

RE: Apple's new iphones
Hello Folks, I have never used a phone with 3D touch. I am wondering, What are the advantages of having a 3D touch iPhone?

That haptic thing is just going to let you into the camera, useless for me, but there might be others who will find it useful who are blind.

Re: Apple's new iphones
I'm also now using the iPhone x. personally, give me the touch ID any day, as it could still be easily worked if for example, the phone was in something like a bumbag, where as this pesky face id can't. when I use my phone whilst I am horse riding for example, I prefer to keep it in the bumbag, as then there is 0 risk of it dropping to the ground. thanks to which ever idiot decided to do away with touch ID however, this is now considerably less easy, as I either have to take it out for the face ID, or mess around entering the pass code. very not ideal from my point of view, which is rather a big shame, as it is a really nice phone apart from this issue.

RE: Apple's new iphones
In MyPersonal opinion, Apple miss'd a Big Opportunity with the Launch of its Anniversary Edition iPhone, the iPhoneX. Because Apple could have distinguished this Anniversary Edition by not incorporating its Unique features InTo other iPhone Models for another 2 or 3 years, which would have made that Anniversary Edition iPhone more special & valuable. Thus, justifying the Hike or Huge Price increase from previous iPhones I Bet Apple will eventually Jump on the BandWagon of Built IN TouchID InTo its Display as it finally came around with Wireless Charging At 05:07 PM 9/12/2018, you wrote: Mike, Thanks for this summary of the new models. No surprises here which is why I got a new iPhone 8 about a month ago. I also wasn't ready to give up the home button. I'm kind of curious where Apple is going with its iPhone naming convention. They chose that Roman numeral X but everyone calls it a 10 anyway and I'm not thinking they will go to a Roman numeral 11 XI model. It seems that most car models these days are a combination of letters and numbers so maybe they thought the X was fashionable.

Re: Apple's new iphones
You know, Mike, the fact that you can use the attention feature is wonderful. But one person‘s experience does not mean it will be the same for everyone. I know people who can’t use the attention feature. So don’t generalize. We are all going to be stuck with this eventually. But making light of a very real security risk for those who cannot successfully use this feature is not OK.

Re: Apple's new iphones
Gestures on the touch screen will only work when the touch screen is on and active. The nice thing about a home button, in addition to the fact that it's another anchor point to use for orientation, is that it's another mechanical switch that will work even when the touch screen isn't on and active. This gives you more options when the touch screen isn't active to interact with your phone, such as waking it up from the lock state, resetting the phone when there's a problem with the interface or enabling a screen reader before you have feedback from the screen. On 09/12/2018 07:14 PM, Gerardo Corripio wrote: I’ve never understood what the big deal is the phones not having a Home button.

Re: Apple's new iphones
I also don't like the idea of a big, honkin' screen. I am small-handed, and appreciate it when I don't have to reach far for items; I know you can do that "reachability" thing, but it's also about just not wanting a wider distance from edge to edge. Plus, I don't want to have to find more real estate within whatever carry-bag I happen to have, just to accommodate a larger screen. If I were low-vision and not total, that would probably be different. Sandra "Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced." (James Baldwin) -Original Message- From: Mary Otten Sent: Wednesday, September 12, 2018 8:25 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Apple's new iphones I see a couple of things about not having a home button. The first one is the touch ID is simply more convenient for me as a blind person then Face ID. I don’t have to be looking at the phone. I can have it on my desk even under my desk on my keyboard shelf, and activate it with touch ID. I could have it in my pocket and activate it with touch ID. Also, if you happen to be one of those blind people who can’t use the attention feature of the Face ID, Face ID is massively not secure. If somebody takes your iPhone, all they have to do is put it in front of your face, and it opens, and they have access to everything. And that can be a problem in certain settings. If you’re lucky enough to be able to use the attention setting, which all ighted people do, that’s not a big deal. But in certain settings, it’s everything from a nuisance to a serious risk. And finally, there is the matter of the gestures. Yes, I’m sure they are doable. Blind people are doing them. But it’s just so unnecessary. It’s just a shame that they couldn’t keep a phone around with the home button and touch ID. But everybody has to have giant displays so they can watch movies on their phones I guess. It certainly is the wave of the future for Apple. So if you’re going to stick with Apple products, guess you have to get on the bandwagon. I certainly would not buy either of the S models. If I get an ex this year, it’s going to be the R. I just don’t see enough bang for the buck to splurge on those other things. If I traveled a lot, the dual sim feature is interesting. And the stereo recording would be good for some people. But it’s not worth at least $250 more over the cost of the entry-level r model.

Re: Apple's new iphones
Correct about the no 3D Touch. That haptic thing is just going to let you into the camera, useless for me, but there might be others who will find it useful who are blind. I’m sure it will be OK for sighted people who like to take pictures. I don’t use 3D Touch all that much. And it supports the T-Mobile band that they activated last year. That’s a big plus for me as a T-Mobile customer. I would gladly trade 3D Touch for the new T-Mobile support.

Re: Apple's new iphones
No 3D Touch, but what they called Haptic something. I guess more than a step backwards, is because the type of display being used on the XR, isn’t compatible with 3D touch? it’d be interesting to see if the Haptic feature works like 3D touch if you guys get one of these soon.

Re: Apple's new iphones
I see a couple of things about not having a home button. The first one is the touch ID is simply more convenient for me as a blind person then Face ID. I don’t have to be looking at the phone. I can have it on my desk even under my desk on my keyboard shelf, and activate it with touch ID. I could have it in my pocket and activate it with touch ID. Also, if you happen to be one of those blind people who can’t use the attention feature of the Face ID, Face ID is massively not secure. If somebody takes your iPhone, all they have to do is put it in front of your face, and it opens, and they have access to everything. And that can be a problem in certain settings. If you’re lucky enough to be able to use the attention setting, which all ighted people do, that’s not a big deal. But in certain settings, it’s everything from a nuisance to a serious risk. And finally, there is the matter of the gestures. Yes, I’m sure they are doable. Blind people are doing them. But it’s just so unnecessary. It’s just a shame that they couldn’t keep a phone around with the home button and touch ID. But everybody has to have giant displays so they can watch movies on their phones I guess. It certainly is the wave of the future for Apple. So if you’re going to stick with Apple products, guess you have to get on the bandwagon. I certainly would not buy either of the S models. If I get an ex this year, it’s going to be the R. I just don’t see enough bang for the buck to splurge on those other things. If I traveled a lot, the dual sim feature is interesting. And the stereo recording would be good for some people. But it’s not worth at least $250 more over the cost of the entry-level r model.

Re: Apple's new iphones
I’ve never understood what the big deal is the phones not having a Home button. Remember more and more devices lack Home buttons, thus instead of buttons, you use gestures to simulate Home button functions.

RE: Apple's new iphones
Mike, Thanks for this summary of the new models. No surprises here which is why I got a new iPhone 8 about a month ago. I also wasn't ready to give up the home button. I'm kind of curious where Apple is going with its iPhone naming convention. They chose that Roman numeral X but everyone calls it a 10 anyway and I'm not thinking they will go to a Roman numeral 11 XI model. It seems that most car models these days are a combination of letters and numbers so maybe they thought the X was fashionable.
