I listened live to Leo LA Porte and his group of tech bros comment in real time and critique the keynote immediately afterward. To avoid turning the keynote into a marathon Oscars telecast, Apple kept the keynote to 2 hours and six minutes, with a good chunk reserved for the vision Pro. The iOS segment seemed truncated and rushed to accommodate the Vision Pro announcement and to cover major updates for the Mac and the Apple Watch OS. In the presentation, the only blindness interesting new feature was a big update to messages. A subsequent announcement said a cool new feature will extract password verification codes from messages and mail and put them into the verification box in an app or website. Also, interactive widgets, including live lock screen widgets will be coming in iOS 17, which was long rumored. For some reason, Apple could not keep a lid on the rumors this year so there were few surprises, unlike in other years. With so many third parties, vendors, and contractors, it is now virtually impossible to prevent everyone from talking.
Wall Street was hyped up. The stock popped 1.75 percent to reach a new record high the morning of the keynote, but fell back as the Vision Pro was revealed. The tech bros with Leo LA Porte were astounded by the price tag and did not believe the technology was as developed as Apple seemed to show. No one in the Video actually wore the vision Pro during the keynote. The guys thought it was a cool, nerdy technology without a specific end user purpose. They suggested the headset will be the next status symbol like the iPhone in the late 2000s.
