Apple September Event Roundup

My favorite quotes regarding yesterday’s Apple event.

Om Malik, on om.co:

They opened it with Apple Watch so that tells you the primary driver of the growth going forward

Mark Gurman, on bloomberg.com:

The iPhone 11 starts at $699, down from the iPhone XRs $749 price last year. The XR stays in the lineup for $599, a $150 decrease for a phone that’s only a year old. That’s one of the biggest year-over-year reductions in iPhone history.

Stephen Hacket, on 512pixels.net:

The iPhone 11 is a correction for Apple, re-alining the product line to how customers thought of it, and the iPhone 11’s new price of $699 is a reflection of that.

M.G. Siegler, on 500ish.com:

The iPhone is now officially a camera. I mean, it has been a camera for a long time. The most popular camera in the world, as Apple is quick to point out each and every year, a decade on. But now it’s really a camera, as today’s keynote made clear.
