There was nothing said about accessibility that I heard, but the audio 
description was very good.

And, since this was primarily a hardware event, with the stuff about the 
operating system was focused on how it supports the new hardware, there was no 
good place to talk about accessibility.

When AppleVis releases it update when iOS 27 is released, probably next week, 
we should know more about the accessibility changes/improvements/or bugs.

Hi, 

I wonder if there was much about matters for the blind but I probably missed 
it. 

Yes a lot was put out there about the event beforehand so not surprised not 
much comment here about it.

I was a little surprised, too, because there were so few comments after the 
event, but maybe that was because so much was already known before the event 
even started.

 

The AirPods sounded interesting, and I was surprised that the prices weren't 
higher for each of those models. And as far as that goes, I actually was 
expecting the 18 Pro models to cost more than what they did increase to.

 

On the other hand, though, because I was curious as to what the complete Apple 
iPhone lineup would look like after the event, I went in the Apple Store app 
and got a real shock. Maybe I shouldn't have been surprised, but I was indeed 
surprised to see the price increases on the older iPhones, especially the 
iPhone 16 and iPhone 17E. I mean, the folks looking for budget iPhones kind of 
got two slaps in the face, having to wait till the spring for the newer 
hardware, as well as $100 price increase if they want one of those older 
iPhones now.

Amazing, I remember that 15 years ago when there was an Apple Event there would 
have been several dozen messages by now.

 

So what did everybody think about the new toys, iPhone 18 Pro/Pro Max, iPhone 
Duo, Apple Watch 12 and Ultra 4?

Then there are the Airpods 5, they sound very nice and while I have Airpods 4 
with ANC, the fact there now is a version where you can swipe on the stems to 
adjust volume like you can on Airpods Pro means I am definitely getting them.
