iPhones and AirPods and Watches, Oh My!

There are a ton of gadgets to talk about this week! First, there is new pair of Spectacles made just for AR developers and it somehow turns into a whole conversation about Snapchat as a company. Then we get into the main topic of the episode which are, of course, all about the new Apple products. Marques, Andrew, and David give their thoughts on the new iPhone 16, AirPods 4th gen, and the new Apple Watch Series 10. Then we play a small game where we quickly discuss a handful of news topics that range from the new YouTube Hype feature to Flappy Bird, and we try to decide whether they matter or not. It's a (long) fun one! Enjoy!

Waveform is part of the Vox Media Podcast Network.

[nandhagopan]

Yeah, I'm just here to see if the Lights Work.

[mohitpavecha]

David cooked there with his iMessage/RCS rant

[AnnamPrasanth]

The collective “Teams” when asked what was the useless messaging app was funny asl 😂

[selimcanpolat]

The worst part of this podcast is that I finish it in one sitting and then I have to wait for another whole week

[mpurnell]

“It’s Finnish… well let re-start it” 😂😂 👏 Ellis wins. Best line in the episode!

[pneuma]

I’ll never get tired of David saying “And I’m David!”

[auroragb]

Loved how Marquez rocked out in the middle of the podcast😂

[robertseevers]

Shoutout to the 3D knit correction. Thank you Beth and Ellis!

[slick]

Please never change the music, it's literally a weekly routine to hear it

[brushlessmicrot]

I just want to say, the algorithm LOVES this podcast. Every. Single. Time. I watch a tech video, this podcast channel autoplays right after. Every. Single. Time.

[Waldoraymond]

Shoutout Beth, you carry that one girl.

[spence]

"Do it and don't tell them" Is sometimes how I deal with my family/friends tech...

[ItsCamplicated]

I'm a manager for T-Mobile and I'm the only android user, I made my entire crew update their phones to iOS 18 just so the group chat would become RCS Chat, NIGHT AND DAY difference. About time Apple.

[Aashiek]

The world needs a podcast of David’s rants. Pure class 👌🏽

[travisprice]

Another Friday, another waveform ❤ these roll around so quick!

[robster]

He’s really gonna have to address the wallpapers app situation next episode.

My take is that he launched an unfinished product and hired a 3rd party developer to make or buy the app, and didn’t do much with it so far.

It was pretty obvious when I found out the developer of Panels is an LLC based in Florida.

[craigburnett]

I love Courtney Victoria! Phenomenal landscape and macro. Criminally underrated and exactly the channel that first popped into my head based off of this hype thing. Good on you for making awareness here.

[wayfairing_soul]

Congrats on 250! 🎉 Thanks for making Fridays even better. 😊

[mattjgraham]

We are running into the weekend in the UK, guys and of course, it's the Waveform :) Congrats on the 250th eps

[pwnd]

David should get back to saying "Bingo" at the end of the show 😂
